My loan just approved. IR 2.54% @ 5 years. Monthly 1448. The SA said I will get by end of this month. Orange colour smile.gif

I was quite surprise by low rates and approval. I thought now is very hard to get loan for car.

Crz is not a full hybrid car, it just a sport semi-hybrid car only.

i could only get 2.59% @ 7 years during the loan interview a drop from 2.65% before. Hope will get lower rates by next week after they finalized it.

Oh, now that u mentioned it, initially it was 2.54 @ 7 years, in the end, change to 2.56 @ 5 years.

How much u pay downpayment? I wonder if the amount affect the rates. 1st time applying for car loan blush.gif

Our interest rate structure is strange!

Longer tenure loan should be higher interest rate as the longer the tenure the higher the risk of default, and vice-versa.

Totally agree on this. I ask about it during the interview for loan. Somehow when she explain it on the phone, with all the financial term, it seems to make sense. But now I forgot already her point, so now agreeing with u smile.gif

My dad actually ordered using my name. He sort of knows the owner so can do fast deal.
At 1st I choose orange colour, but according to him, now only its going to be shipped from japan and will be available in end of April or early May.
He said if I want fast, take silver colour, next week also can get. So then I change lo, dont wanna wait already. Waiting for their reply now

Just went to Kajang on Friday to sign the loan and have a look at my car. My family all use proton. When I start the engine, was really surprise cuz its like a game car lol, feels so advance (and jakun at the same time) tongue.gif
Didnt do testdrive tho, just play with the a/c, lights and stuff in the car. Love the idea of wireless key (this is what the SA told me). Will get the car earliest next Friday. Too bad plate number is WWV most probably blush.gif

Just got my silver prius c from kajang just now. Drive around town till midnite lol. I must say that the spec of the car itself is nothing, very common, but the technology really wow me. The door alarm lock like iphone, can play swipe2. Haha. Still cant get used to it every time lock/unclock the car with just swiping the handle.
Can get around 20km/ltre if light footed. But i dont think my mom knows how to control the footwork.
On the road, i get really distracted when reading the info on the screen, although usefull, i cant give a damn bout it when driving or my car start going to another lane. Or maybe im still not used to it
The rest are pretty common and similar like how the other forumers has done their review.
All in all, the car is relly worth it. And most importantly, my mom loves it

Wow.. when you book it? Heard SA said, currently all booking will need to wait for 6mths.

A little envy to those who got their Prius C

i book it in february. Just lucky that my dad knows the owner. Anyway, the later badge will be better with leather seat and 2-din radio option with more choice of color. Mine is just standard fabric seat and standard radio unit.

95. Can't afford 97

this car is built for 92 and above...
but too bad the car door can't auto lock when you driving at certain speed. Overall I quite enjoy the car.

footwork in hybrid car must learn but even you heavy footed on it, the car will smooth smooth to up the speed, don't have the rev rev sound  thumbup.gif

Absolutely right! I tried until 120km/h the engine is not loud at all,i tried to check the rpm but coudnt find it.
ThE sensor function is good, but quite annoying cuz the co driver must wear seatbelt too.
aNd i think my car need to do allignment n balancing, can feel the car a bit not balance sometimes when cornering. When i test drive before this was ok
