welcome to the club christinelcy, ^^ . White colour. I leave it to our white PC owner expert.. As myself having problem maintaining blue d. As little dirt get smack in the paint asap. TT
to vey99 - yup agree. And fully electric is not feasible yet unless they have quick charge.
Can't wait for Formula E to come and see how they innovate E car further

QUOTE(christinelcy @ Sep 24 2012, 09:01 AM) May i know how to take care white PC? PC is my 1st car....now abit worry how to take care it. Anyone can gv me some idea? Thank you so much Mine is white. I wax once in 2 months, wipe n vacuum once in 2weeks. My advice is that we should treat it as a tool for transportation rather than spending too much time in taking care or we become a slave to the car. Not much difference in second value at the end of the day.

The manual does not say there is a Bluetooth function. Anybody managed to connect the basic audio unit via Bluetooth ?

Safety first, others second! PC has 7 airbags, a full hybrid HI has 2, a mild hybrid Mild hybrid is supposed to be a cheap car, because the cost of production is much lower than that of a full hybrid car. However, it is being sold in Malaysia at about the same proce as full hbrid car because most of the consumers here are unaware of this.

to engah,
Yup. Actually i like US version of PC where the heated seat and softtex leather. Seem nice. And the moon roof and add 2 more airbag. And their DVDAVN is better than us also and add 2 more option in display to calculate difference in price of fuel.
But then. Think we got our PC cheapest as no excise duty but have AP + Sales tax. If not.. RM200k... which i will think twice first as can get Camry, Sonata or K5 at that range. Even mondeo and Passat CC is available at that price.
For RM97k. its a steal i guess at least for us Malaysian. Even Sg have their PC around RM270k according to one of our forummer which buy a PC in SG.
To Rolland, Even i love PC alot. I suggest test drive all the car first. But if u ask me.. Honda and Toyota use different tech. Do note that insight at traffic light will off engine and you have zero air con. ^^ . From outside the Insight may look bigger. But do put some luggage inside and u feel the difference.
Downside of PC is behins seat best is 2 person only. 3 person and the person sitting in the middle will have their xxx sour after one hour of drive. Proven and tested d ^^ .

I guess the closest US version to ours is the C3 which cost ard USD22K, i.e. ~RM68K (@3.10). Quite near to our price before UMW's profit & sales tax. If want to feel short changed comparing dollar to dollar would be even worst  . Fresh grad in US paid 3K can easily afford this car at 22K.

SGD133K man, with COE. dollar to dollar also quite insane price. but then again the camry 2.0 is 176K w/COE. buying car in SG is really insane.
