I also can't wait for my car la. So eager to get it and make up some modified after reading US priuschat forum.

1st - sport rim plus wider tyre
2nd - window tint
3rd - black matt vinyl for front and rear bumper (only centre part of both bumper)
4th - head unit + rear view camera + navigation (now trying hard to find a good one which compatible with steering control. Heard ciplak dlaa or other ciplak brand can fit. But I doubt the quality) (but I don't wana purchase from toyota original unit as its 3k. Too expensive yet I don't know the quality)
5th - alpine component speaker and small underseat subwoofer
6th - brown vinyl for interior dash board.
7th - other minor accessories (number plate holder etc)

Arrgh, can wait it arrive to start working on it.

Wow, first car getting Prius C..

Actually SA will earn some commission when we apply loan, so just let the SA do the job.

Some bank just take 2-3 working days, some may take 1-2 weeks to approve.

Anyone know the current rate? SA only told me is about 2.5%

I got 2.46. Pbb penang

Definitely need a subwoofer, mid-power under seat type is sufficient.

Bro. If u want to add subwoofer, the underseat type, which battery you are going to tap? If to add sub woofer, will it void the warranty of the big battery?

You don't  need to worry about both, there's no way you can use the high voltage battery unless you cut the thick protected cable or plugs.  The regular 12V battery is under the back row seat on the right.  A low or mid power subwoofer would just need the normal 12V supply wire found everywhere in the car.

It has been reported that these settings cannot worked with European models and sadly also our current Malaysian batch cannot activate them too. Maybe it is because our PriusC do not have auto door unlock when collision is detected or when airbags deployed.

(Another difference with Malaysian model is that our MID do not include the screens for  "ECO Savings" and "ECO Savings Past Record" where we can enter a comparison fuel consumption of another car to show how much we have saved by using PriusC.)

Anyway, you may try it, hopefully later batches may get it to worked.

As per the instruction, these settings STRICTLY must be done within 20 seconds on pressing Start from vehicle Off state and doors are closed.  You must also keep pressing on the door "Lock" or "Unlock" button for 5 seconds EXACTLY.
If the setting is accepted by the computer, it would acknowledge confirmed by locking and unlocking all your doors quickly.

Thanks bro. But i wonder will it void the warranty by installing aftermarket sound system. The sub woofer and speaker

I thought of changing the 2 din player outside accessories shop but worries about the handling and the warranty for the ori player.I like to have a LCD screen and bluetooth function but the toyota DVD-AVN player cost me a bomb(RM 2,990 even though it comes with rear camera). Any recomendations,guys?
*
Same to me too. I wanna transfer my car souns system over. But afraid latter the major part or main battery of the car spoilt, they will say no warranty. Cos icheck before before i bookthis car. Penang SA told me will void warranty if change anything. She said there is a latest circular from toyota since one of the prius c install a rear camera and afterthat short circuit caught fire. Haiz. If it void the original players warranty is nevermind. But i afraid they will say this and that affected short circuit then ask u go claim from aftermarket seller. Hope that some toyota technician or sa can clarify this.

Let's all members have a gathering first, mayb can have it in end of may or mid of june. Cos I believe we shall have some "click" before we shoot out for trips. And at least those less "social" can know the members and enjoy more if there's a trip.

Welcome to the club RegistraCHAN. What colour you took ?

When is your expected delivery date ?

Cheapest financing i found is 2.43% p.a for 9 years. Shorter the more expensive. Hence i opt for 9 years as i think its better for me to dump more to my housing loan as BLR is way more expensive than car loan.

To nick.tan1.

Yup. Maybe we can have gathering first also hehe. Any place to suggest ? Seem alot of our owner is outside of kl though
*
I'm fine with anywhere as long as its from kl up to penang. Cos I used to travel there. But on selected times.

Wow, I don't think I've ever seen an SA that's been really lazy, 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.

Ouch, that's quite long but I feel your pain hehe. Ordered mine beginning of March and it still hasn't come but it's already in the country.. I was told initially April... then May.. then mid May... then add two more days... now it must be somewhere in limbo heh. I've already played all my patience cards so I think I shall be a bit more assertive and lay some pressure. Not sure what the deal was but they told me they already had cars on the lot (my color too) at the beginning of May so I don't know why mine is coming at a later shipment (I assume they must be licking someone's butt and pushing them into my place in the queue perhaps - as of now that's the only thing I can surmise). I feel as if there are so many hoops to jump through and seriously did consider another car at one point but I will stick to my guns because I really like this car. Perhaps you can ask one of the folks in this thread for their SA (sales advisor), in fact just a few posts down someone mentinoed there was a white one available but I don't know if someone snatched that one up already. Stick around and I'm sure someone will post up if there is one available quicker. Anyone mind assisting BabyZero to get their car quicker?

@s3nInsight
Ahhh, maybe that is what happened to me too! What city by the way?

Hey, my sa told me the same too. After that they explain even the car is here and allotted. But it depends cos ap clearance took some time at port. Further, UMW need to recheck the car for pre delivery inspection due to shipment. A friend of mine got his polo gti, brand new, but pdi suck. He got a car with the whole exhaust pipe rusted. So that checking is very important. Hope that all buyer will check their car even the bottom of the car.
