When you get your car besides having the manual in book form do they also have it included as a pdf on a dvd?

Thank you for the information! Just wanted to peek at the manual before I get it so I can learn more, and to see the minor differences with the N.A. versions (like some of the displays on MID, locking functions etc). I always find it an annoyance to find something that's usually not mentioned that we may not get on our end.

Ahh, for a moment I thought you were in kk when you got it lol, almost made me jealous you got it so early (of course I still *am* jealous you got it early haha)

Those alloys look nice, like they wanna chop someones feet off
I kinda wouldn't mind the door visors but I wonder how much it affects it. Prolly not much for me to care. I'm getting kinda itchy looking at all these accessories

Any comments about the tiny ass wiper in the back? lol

Maybe you can add a diff "cap" on the reverse cam and mark on that one hehe. For me I guess I'd just use the cam for seeing any obstruction but not rely on it the whole way for parking. I find those proximity sensor things more helpful.

Btw, can you get any trip/car info displayed on the 6.1" touchscreen? I know the US versions have it, would be kind of sad if we couldn't get any info displayed on there and just have it showing nav stuff only..

I recall on the other prius c thread here I think someone mentioned you have to have the switch enabled for light when door opens or something and then you can approach from driver or front passenger side and it will light up.

So can anyone who already has their Prius C can clarify whether or not any extended info from MID can be displayed on the 6.1" touchscreen like the car or trip info or if it shows zero info from MID? In US (and I'm sure the Japan one does it) their version lets passengers see some info from that display. If it doesn't then that is kind of lame.. hate missing out on stuff

Sorry I'm on the east so I can't make a recommendation, but I do remember some people earlier in this thread or the other prius c thread mention of their SA's to others.

What do your guys key fob look like? The one that was with the test drive car looked kinda nice, but a bit big and it had a big blue thingy on it like the start button. Other than that I think from looking online they seem to be like the normal prius key fob. Someone mind taking a pic of theirs?

Seems like a useful dvd to get, I want it

Sorry to hear that, I know how much these waits can suck, especially when they get unexpectedly extended. Hopefully my wait will soon be over but I have about a week and a bit until things are settled. I hate when things get dragged out, anxiety naik hahah. What colour will you be getting?

Wow, I don't think I've ever seen an SA that's been really uncooperative, absent minded with its client especially when that said client is paying in cash. So far everything I've brought up with my SA they have forgotten, and I've had to constantly remind them and several times when they've said they would get back to me they never did, wasting me even more time with other issues. Now apparently my wait time will be extended even more, I am thinking hard and reconsidering... I have never come across an SA like this before that seems so uninterested or not serious. If you consider getting this car (or possibly whatever else this SA deals with) forget about getting it from UMW in kk, or find a more competent SA that actually cares (or pretends to and at least gets stuff done) for the client. I may wait it out, but as far as reconsidering goes, what other options for cars are there at this price range? Don't care whether it is hybrid or not.. (just an idea to know what else is out there). I still want this Prius c.. just a lil miffed.

Nah, not nitpicking :> and it's good to keep the corrected info updated. I'm also a little bit confused about that one but as you and the other owners haven't been able to get it working (maybe we should contact that guy) we should probably cross it off the list for now.
As for my other issue, I will try an be more patient (on top of how patient I already am in the first place..) and I will see if I can find another SA but if I was not mistaken I think this was the only one dealing with this particular car. If they suddenly became more cooperative/enthusiastic/helpful/etc I would be happy, but I am not going to cancel just yet because I think there may be a fee involved so I'll look into it a bit more and hopefully they will change their tune.

@timeonce, thanks I will keep it in mind if I decide to make changes :>

Thanks for the information!

Also a tricky way to encourage them to slim down hahaha

Ahh, didn't know that, thanks for letting me know

Also a general thanks to everyone on this thread for being so nice & helpful

Wow, I think my worst nightmare for commutes like that is getting a stomach ache along the way hehe

On another note, I think I've decided to use Gzox coating when I get my car since it's pretty much the only one available in my area. Seems like alot of black cars going there too hehe.

Some guy on priuschat I think had something similar - I think his was a combination of just broken in, tire pressure, and temperature and I forget what else that added to it. At least some of that might have something to do with it, or maybe not I would like to hear though what fizlan75's SA was referring to as well

I've kept my eyes peeled everyday and I still haven't seen a Prius C on the road in Sabah yet - lots of the big brother though. Maybe there is just so few at the moment I haven't crossed paths with them yet, will be kinda exciting to be one of the first few around here when I get mine hehe.

I read some guy on priuschat tried his up to 108mph (174kph), then someone in that post mentioning something about a limiter


On the lighter side of things (I guess I was tired) after browsing late last night I couldn't stop seeing this face



Now I imagine everyone driving behind me is gonna see a blushing smiley face with a hitler moustache haha

Ganador PAE-039ST muffler

More info here (it's in Japanese): http://www.ganador.co.jp/products/pasion/pae-039st.html

Yeah, I seen quite a few other things like lights, light covers, shock absorbers, bumper guards, etc but all are pretty darned expensive. Just putting it out there what's available.

Here is some more stuff for those interested. Bunch of accessories and kit parts. I'll post more as I come across them. So far on my top list is to get that maintenance dvd though. I kinda want side skirt and rear bumper cover too, heck I want everything hehe. Time to play lottery!
