Awesome! I booked mine a few days before yours and I was told to wait till October. Some wait for 5 months and some got it within a month? why ar? Color? Mine is a silver one.

Was obsessed with Aqua color but thinking of long term driving (i think of driving it for 10 years, dunno can or not), then finally choose back silver, easy maintenance and less eyes catchy (car stolen cases so high at KL).

Guys, one thing you should be VERY VERY PROUD of your PC is you has the Vehicle Stability Assistance (VSA), which not even Toyota Camry has it. Only Honda Accord Highest Specs got it. VSA help you gain control when your car "buang". It is matter of life and dead.

Check out what is VSA here at youtube!

I heard Proton will come out with their hybrid Exora soon. When it is out, to protect it, I am sure all import tax, excise duty etc. will kena back. You can quote my word.

I got a question, if you book car this Sept, cars come in Feb 2013, and no tax exemption in 2013, means you have to pay your PC RM197k in Feb 2013? Bear in mind you can sign your hire and purchase agreement when your cars come, and bank only pay Toyota while car arrives, means the business deal officially effective in Feb 2013.

For Proton Exora hybrid, the engine only charge the battery, and the battery moves the car. Once the battery die, whole car die. What a "hybrid"? Please correct me if i am wrong. lol

ESP Stability Control (aka ESC, VSA, VSC) is a must – Malaysian motorists deserve better active safety in our cars - Paultan.org(27 June 2012)

You can check the full list of ESP/VSA/VSC/ESC enabled car there. For local cars, only Proton Preve highest spec (RM73k) has.

PC owners, are you proud now? lol

9 years installment with 10% downpayment (RM9700), you are looking around RM900-RM1100 a month.

Expecting at least 20km/l for the fuel storage. Include the fuel when you do your budget, then you find it not too expensive (RM50-200) from Alza/Vios/City per month. Then consider the spec you getting for PC, it is fully Japan made, mate.

Good sharing!

PC may be not worthy at USA but in Malaysia, it is still worthy, considering the availability and quality of other hybrid cars with the price. Anyway we don't have the options of Prius V, Camry Hybrid etc.

Thanks for Malaysian Government, yeah, Janji Ditepati! lol

Yes, please share the pic with you if possible. Thanks.

Thank you very much for sharing. I will double check on that after the service.

Today I went to banks apply HP loan, RHB initially offer 2.38%. Hong Leong quote me 2.46% and CIMB max can go till 2.38 (subject to approval) Later my SA get me 2.35% from Toyota panel - RHB bukit bintang.

So difference is actually 0.36% compared to your Honda Insight. But bear in mind Honda Insight engine is running all the time, thus you are not saving that much as PC. I was once impressed by Insight's outlook, interior and space, but end up i choose PC, due to its core value - mature hybrid technology.

So it is your call.

I heard Prius C will come up with TRD version with RM97k price in 2013 and original version will be sold in cheaper price, is it true?

PC back seats can be lifted down so you don't worry about size when you need to carry something big. If you need to carry things and got passengers at back seats on the road REGULARLY, then PC is not an ideal car.

Why you need a spacious car if your back seats are always empty? Big car come with more fuel consumption.

So again, this is your call.

Agreed! My dad was not convinced too during the test drive and for him, RM100k for a car similar size to Myvi is madness! Luckily he is not the decision maker, whoever pay make decision.

I have a Myvi at home too, but i think Myvi is a little less spacious than PC.

Come to resale value, I know hybrid is not widely accepted here but after all, it is still Toyota (known for good resale value). I think second hand buyer mostly will concern of the battery. Guys, what do you think of the resale value of your PC?

Added on August 25, 2012, 12:23 amTake it this way, Myvi cheap but after 5 years, you need to fix here fix there. PC is fully Japan made and imported in whole, which we can expect better quality on its parts.

And one thing, when come to road safety, especially accident, Myvi got 2 airbags, ABS (some model) only while PC is 5 star (top rated) on US Institute of Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) crash test. It has 7 air bags, ABS, BD, EBD, VSC (not even camry has it).

I am not saying Myvi is bad, again, the universal rule "you get what you pay for".

That is serious a good deal! ! Congrats!

I do wish i found this kind of kang dao!

Your PC seller... Every km he drove, he lost almost RM2. Drop RM16k in 2 months...

Congrats! How long you had waited for?

I saw a truck carrying 8-9 PC just now on MRR2. Hope can receive call from my SA these few days but i think not likely. Booked in June.

With VSC, I think it is not easy to lose stability.

I notice that all car for test drive are registered, with number plates.

Correct me if I am wrong. Order DVD AVN from Toyota directly cost RM2990.

Buy the part from Toyota and install ourselves cost RM1700?

For the reverse signal cable, can not bring it to Service Centre and ask for help?

Thought your DVD-AVN is bought from them ad-hoc. hehe

I haven't got my PC yet.
Driving my 11 yrs old Wira, I didn't feel proud too taking over BMW or Mercedes.
I do feel proud when my FC can still reach 13km/l. Compare with my friend's FC of 9km/l only, i can go 4 km longer every liter, which means i can go extra 160km per tank. Considering we pump full tank every week, then I can got extra 8320km every year (which also mean I save RM1756). On this I feel proud then. hehe...
