thanks for the input..hmm now i think the 4wd is a good deal

Yup @ above poster. About the pug, not taking resale value into consideration lar, you are paying more for a 1.6 na engine and 4 speed auto only wor. I think not just resale and reliability you have to worry about, it's underpowered also.

Asx is cheaper, more powerful and better resale and reliability. Seems like no fight to me.

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

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

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.

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

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.

Hi all, I just go to view the ASX of my friend.

The front seats are ok, space is normal and quite confortable.

However the disappointment is on the rear seats. The seats are abonormally straight, the legroom is just ok ok. Due the the straight seats, it is not that comfortable to sit on. The cabin space is smaller that MyVi. You van actually feel the sense of tight space. Opening the moonroof helps abit, but not much. The whole experience siting on the rear seats is like AirAsia short economy flights. It is bearable, but not comfortable for long journey.

Test drived the ASX as well, during the start, when i step on the pedal, the car is kinda sluggish and slow climbs up. Maybe due to he ecu or something like that as my friend said. Overall the handling is good, steering is stiffer compared to smaller car. Going through rough roads and bumps are quite good, not sure is due to new suspension or 17inch tyre.

Overall, I like this car so much, but I cant accept to buy a 130k with cabin space smaller than my gf's MyVi, as I am actually buying a car that serves as main family car.

Can we modify the back seats aftermarket?
P.S. : Saw the CX-5 as well, the rear seats are slightly better that ASX, but it still feels small, and smaller thant MyVi.

I am wondering is it all SUV has smaller rear seats space compared to sedan ? Due to the huge boot space?
