asx is my dream car. dunno when I can afford to buy.

yeah.. 17.. black makes it look bigger i guess..
and orange color, real life not really as bright in that picture....

Wat car is it, subaru XV? how much. 140k? vs asx also 130k right?

yup..139K otr, full time AWD...5 years full service
but no HUGE moonrof like ASX la..hehe

is moonroof so good?

Nvr had one before....all I can think of is...pull down the seats and dating with girl in car while looking at the sky but I rather get busy in car and donwan risk water leaking and hot sun during daytime and prefer power over sunroof...speaking of that...is XV more powerful than ASX? This more I concern...I dont like ASX front, XV rear i dont like....Subaru never can get sexy with rear design....zzz

The XV really look nice from side profile...

moonroof make the cabin feel more spacious... ..
which one more powerful? dont know la... never bother to compare..
which AWD system is the best and provided more control, definitely its a Subaru (all model)...
utube and u'll know...
wanna more, i think u better ask in Subaru XV or Forester thread bro..
This is ASX thred

Also considering subaru xv.. But the limited service center turn me off especially since i live in east coast.

Anyone can advice what are the asx service interval?
How much cost is normal service after warranty usually?
What type of engine oil being used?

Yea, mitsubishi service center usually plenty. Subaru is xv is quite small right if I'm not mistaken?

I thought XV is RM151,226.50? Just check their web site. But notice there is an ads stating getting it at RM129,800 now with 0 interest rate and 0 insurance.

If same price with ASX 4WD then hard to choose. Else ASX is still easier to own one.

listed price, yes 150+k...
promo is to choose either one... the best value is 5 years free service (6K), insurance (save 4.4k), 0% interest (save a bit only)
but discount here n there, car becomes 130k-ish... u end up paying 0 for downpayment..
in some case, motorimage will give you cashback (NCD claim)... at least thats what happen to me (1K cash back)

easy to own an XV now.. but u gotta be fast... while stock last (with discount)... other will be on normal price

Thanks for the info. You are driving XV? How is the ride and interior quality? Read the review at Paultan but it seems not winning the heart of the reviewer.

Will check out the Subaru showroom for a test drive very soon. Thought of getting XV (before the ASX CKD is announced) but the RM150k putting it too close to CRV. But if around RM130k, then can re-consider.

Paultan reviewer says, he prefers CX5 in his driveway...
so its a bias review

130k is 2014 or 2013 model? I think should be due to end of year sales promo right? Straight kenak 1 year depreciation d like that out of the door.

I still feel that the subaru is basically a more expensive, smaller version compared to the asx. However according to reviews the all wheel drive on the subaru is better. But I think since we don't have snow and ice in Malaysia front wheel drive good enough for city driving. Size and space more important to me IMO.

This is a fair review:

yup, RM130k is for 2013, just test drove the XV today, the handling is great but acceleration below 70-80 km/h is kinda sluggish. Will wait for test drive of ASX, hopefully by this coming weekend, to make my final decision.

ASX is bigger and roomier while XV smaller and agile.

i bought xv at rm135k with 8k cash rebate. The cash rebate still in my pocket and i make rm1.5k-rm2k each months from it, depends on my luck in forex trading n trading techniques hehe

Yea good luck and all the best! I do admit the Subaru badge is more desirable. However also bear in mind that there are not as many Subaru service centres compared to Mitsubishi ones. Mitsubishi brand associated more with the Triton and Pajero in Malaysia but because of that also, there are plenty of service centres. Hopefully we will see more ASX on the streets since d segment sedans die liaw with the new Proton Accordana coming. At least proton hasn't rebadge a suv yet.

Anyway Asx turning circle: 10.6 m. Length 4295mm width 1770mm height 1625mm
Subaru xv turning circle: 10.6 m. Length 4450mm width 1780mm height 1615mm

Actually Asx is as nimble as the xv, it just uses space better and therefore is roomier and easier to park as well.

with CKD 2WD ASX only RM115k and CKD 4WD ASX only RM129k, this will definitely affect the XV sales compared to CBU ASX priced at RM145k previously.

Can't wait for ASX test drive.

Oh ya, I'm considering the aerokit which has back spoilers, front and rear extra skirts plus led lights for 4+k. But it's quite expensive for what you get. Any owners with aerokit have pictures of the extra kit?

Also I feel not worth, that sounds like 1-2k worth of kit only.

any mitsubishi sales can pm me best deal for asx
