Hi Public, UGPM.

Ermmm no offence to the poster above, but seriously would you recommend someone to buy a car that being sold after less than half a year unless you know the owner and the car very very well?



To jackson: No offense bro.......hope you understand.

lucky you said that because i just get my ASX!!!! YIPEE!!! Dealer told me not to modify anything during the warranty period, which is 3 years. My ASX is pear white.   
But through out the purchase process I am very not satisfy with it  I'm not sure is this how Mitsubishi dealer treat their customer:

1) I go to showroom book the car by giving RM500 of deposit (not down payment). That time i was deposit for a gray color ASX. I've confirm with SA that they have a stock for this gray color.

2) Then my full down payment get dragged a week due to I'm outstation on next day of the deposit.

3) Before I can made my full down payment, SA called up and said no more gray units. Immediately I fak him how come the color can be taken by others, suppose that deposit should had lock it. Find sales manager and get the answer was first come first serve base on full downpayment! WTF then what is that deposit for! I believe this never happen for other brand's car!

4) No choice but to take white color. Gray color need to wait until august. So my full down payment made, all the documents sign, JPJ get car plate number and waiting for the SA to call up.

5) Finally SA called up to collect the car 2 days after (car already tinted. The process took kinda fast really). But when I went for the car, the first look of the car is: A DEMO UNIT!!!! 

I finally realise that the dealer dis honer to me! That car doesn't look brand new at all. Although there is no scratches, tyres still look new but the car mileage already hit more than 140km! And the car seat doesn't have any stickers, plastic cover, all had been rip off and i can see a lot of footstep stain appear on the internal car mat!!

Still with all these conditions, dealer told me is a brand new car. 

So again I fak them (SA + manager) for getting me a demo unit. At the end, they admit the car is a display unit, but there is a different between their terms "Display" and "Demo". Display only park in showroom while demo on the road test drive. But what is the different for me? Still that car might had been touched / sit by thousands of ppl!
Also, i notice not all branch having demo unit. If that time no demo unit, they will use the display unit for customer to test drive!
WTF so means the car i get is a half display half demo!!! With that fact, I argue with my dealer until finally they admit that they are not sure is the car had been test drive before because it is taken from another branch. And that car appear as a display unit on that branch.. 

I'm so sure with this fact because I also been test drive the display unit ASX before i purchase it.

But when everything comes to the end, the car cannot exchange, no more discount... but dealer offered me additional 3 times free service... still i am not satisfy with the way they handler my purchase! Now i start thinking is it because they wanna hit their quarter sales so they lie to me about the no more gray color but to push out any left over display / demo unit. 

So sorry for this long story of mine. I just wanna confirm with you guys is this the way mit dealer do. Also i found that the driver seat leather cover is not fully inserted into the seat (left and right side), is this same with u guy's asx ?

the red one, in real life, is strikingly beautiful

in the brochure, i looks so - so

it's acually evo x red.

when i saw a red ASX on the road few monhs back, i knew i made a wrong decision choosing a boring grey color

at 1st, i thought grey was the best. but when there's one too many grey ASX, it doesn't become the best color oledi...
noise comes from the lousy dunlop sp200 tyres. i need to change those (and bigger wheels) when my tyres are worn

I also get my asx last month from a dealer at Jalan 222 and get a very good discount from a salesman. Indeed, it's a very fantastic car. I get 2 years free maintenance + RM3000 from him.
