FC is worse than vios/ myvi etc... I'm quite a heavy footer, so I get around 8.3l- 9l/100km on average. But for drivibility, looks, handling, it is a really nice car, pardon the back seats and space which is a b**** though.

Auto or manual? The manual version of my car performs much better in terms of FC (and performance), and I drive a similar engine in a similar weight car as a manual too, and have a lower FC, though I accelerate harder in that car, I drive faster (it's more aerodynamic though). Hard to compare, but those outdated 4 speed gearboxes weren't terribly efficient, IIRC.

Mine is the auto variant. Manual torque is damn awesome, but loses out at the high end, plus there's the speed cut. =p

I think the space in back is sufficient for me...I'm 6 footer...it's a small car...but compared to other small cars...suzuki swift for example...if i configure the front passenger seat to suit my height....I cannot fit into the back...I always thought that there is a design flaw for so many japanese cars...the dashboard is not designed properly to accommodate people with long legs at the front...vios, swift, accord...all same

Just did a service on my FoFi last week on 3k mileage. Somehow feel that it is much smoother and quiet.

Just a couple of general notes:
Are you sure you want to chiptune a diesel in Malaysia? The purpose of remapping the engine is to optimize it for good quality fuel, the manufacturer designs the engine with poor quality fuel in mind. You can tune it in Europe, but in Malaysia? I'd be too scared...
You should be able to change the rims (not sure if it has to be entered anywhere her), just beware of the results. Larger rims < less top speed, lower performance and less comfort. Only high speed cornering will profit. That's the experience a friend had with his C30 2.0D (remapped to 180 PS).

But I got to know that the free service's black oil is using semi synthetic. -pWs-
