QUOTE(FenomX)
The Blue lagoon comes, washing over me -
It doesn’t bring the relief I expected.
How I’d longed for that blueness
My escape from the tranquility black,
There is no hiding from the light, you see -
Everything is under its inspection.
I’d just wanted to lose myself
In the black,
I’d patiently waited for it, counting the seconds,
To become sweetly numb
Is that so wrong?
To forget, to forget -
It won’t let me forget, the darkness -
Rather, it provides a lovely canvas
For my sorrows
Oh, give me the light,
Its curious gaze,
Anything but this silent
Knowing
Darkness,
So still and terrible.
It doesn’t pry like the light, there’s no need -
It knows.
It smiles at my foolishness - all along I’d thought it a friend
But now I see, everything is all too clear here in the dark -
It is a demon.
A demon of the worst sorts
It has betrayed me, a spider that caught me in its web
And now approaches
To feed -
There is no escape.
In the dark tranquility of night,
The shadow beckons,
The crimson betrayal of treason's hilt,
Embedded deep within each heathen,

Forward he marches unto the arms of death,
For treason of betrayal so great,
Pound him, cut him, till he is out of breath,
Then let the scythe of death become his treat,

Woe be upon he who embraces not the night,
Woe be upon he who follows the path of azure,
For his soul will be crushed with the shadow's might,
For falling for such simple allure,

Let death be his marching tune,
Let sorrow be his only guide,
For the traitor with such black fortune,
I banish thee, never be in my sight.

FenomX,

Y U NO GET BLACK??

Need to drop by RHB and try my luck at their supposed better interest rate.

Since you mentioned the registration plate - any clues if WWQ 868 would still be available? Or should I try my luck with WWS instead?

letting go of everything that surrounds me
just sitting in the preve
completely numb
no worries, fears or pains
floating above it all
flashes of memories come
reminding me of the tranquility black,
showing the person that i was
and who I chose to become
wondering about the future
and who i will be then
interested where my life will be
will i be pleased with the choices that made
and the path of which i have traveled
the blue lagoon is the answers for everything.

3 digits wor, might be a lil bit harder, mine 4 digits. WWQ bought by someone so i might just wait for WWR or WWS. Runner settle.
*
Thought of replying again...but then we would seriously go OT tongue.gif Later become Preve Poem thread laugh.gif

Runner ah? I remember someone saying runner damn ripoff. If 4 digits you could just go to JPJ no? Provided you got the time la.

I got a backup 4 digit. But kinda like the 868. Problem is the two 8's though. Haih.

'grats on the car btw. Damn you. I want mine too *pouts*

QUOTE(ahaks75 @ Apr 23 2012, 07:04 PM)
That was my biggest mistake when I testdrove the Preve. I tried to compare with the merce.... I couldn't find one thing that the preve beat the merce. The problem is, when I read the preview by the media, they said the NVH is very quite almost mute...so I put to much expectation to the car.

Anyway, compared with the merce, the merce engine very quite (understanable because it is V6), the merce engine more power (because its 2.6L), the merce is very spacious (because its D segment), the merce boot very big, the interior is 100% soft touch (except wood panel).

The only thing the Preve can beat is... perhaps the fuel consumption and maintenance.

I have to trade-in the merce since it is already 10 years old... and the wear and tear starts to come into effect. The normal service cost me minimum RM 1k, one wheel cost me RM600, roadtax per year cost me RM1,200. These are all normal item. The wear and tear parts cost me bomb... (e.g. one side disc brake cost me RM 500.00, a pair of wiper cost me RMm 300.00 etc)

Therefore, I have to sell the car before the cost of ownership get into me....besides, I can keep some cash after paying Preve.
*
Finally someone who understands my dilemma. Contis aren't cheap to maintain. Especially after the first 5 years. At least a merc spare part easier to find. And mechanically more sound. Try a beemer. Or audi. Die liao laugh.gif

QUOTE(mat79 @ Apr 24 2012, 08:39 PM)
about the engine noise, they called it booming sound. Actually, it is extensively reduce if u compare it with bold cfe...but the main focus is more on other noise and harshness like wind, tyre n road noise. The engine has noise, but not harsh. Want actually talk about things that people dont aware, but have to go for dinner. Off now.

Is it? Hmm. Doesn't really matter to me tongue.gif

So, have you decided on your colour yet? What's the latest news from our SA btw? I whole day radio silence. Was busy in Putrajaya the whole day. Dammit la. Too busy these past few days to sort out the paper work needed. Haih.

QUOTE(Junn @ Apr 24 2012, 09:05 PM)
The tyre is around 500 each, so your rim 250 each

That's quite ok though isn't it? I thought rims were bloody expensive sweat.gif

Speaking of the Yes 4G thingy...is it built in to the car, or can I take it around with me?

What attract me the most is the fact that SG will preserve the paint. Just have a normal wash & voila!

Secondly is the warranty of 5 years makes me think 600 is worth it.  icon_idea.gif

RM 600 for 5 years = RM 10/month. That's really not bad. Now I'm interested.

Guys

I have just called Mr Choong @ 016-345 2913. Asked him about coating for Preve. He claimed that it'll cost us RM700 each  shocking.gif

He said yesterday he have made 1 Preve (I believe its our fellow K2002's car) and looking at the car's dimension he cannot go any lower than that.

Informed him that I have several friends who wanted to do coating, can get special price or not. He said no since his price is already the lowest in coating market. I told him that we're serious buyer and definitely at least 5 ppl will show up. He then tell me a story whereby he has once been conned by customer. Due to the long process of coating, the first customer (con man ph34r.gif  ) has the car done but later nobody else of the con 1 come to do coating. Thus disrupt his schedule whatsoever already. Pity him not to mention the con 1 got special price already

I told him what if we all go there, pay him down-payment or even maybe full payment first, then he can schedule us 1 by 1 at what time we can go. He also said no since he didn't accept down-payment.  sweat.gif

Well, that's it. I said to him that we'll give him a call once we got the car.

Huhuhu... Really smash my dream to pieces for getting to coat my White Preve for 400-500... rclxub.gif
*
Wah. He really don't want to make money one ah? People willing to dp first oso dun wan ah? sweat.gif

Anyone else we can call? I'm sure he's not the only one. Here we are, willing to give him custom, and he have to be like that. Really beh tahan la ppl like this.

Where else can do this SG thing? We initiate a bulk buy elsewhere and see if can or not.

If his competitor is twice the price then he can lansi all he want lor. No competition. Which means people are forced to go to his shop. Heh. Clever man.
