bro, can pm me details as well? thanks!

I recently google around and summaries some pros and cons comments from US & Europe on PC.


Pros:

Outstanding fuel economy
Affordable pricing
Easy to drive and park
Snakes through traffic and parks as easy as a Seaway
Standard Bluetooth and USB port
Hatchback convenience; surprisingly serviceable back seat.
Seat comfort is good for a small car.
At trim level 3 and above an electronic lover's playground.
Voice commands for audio/nav system.
USB plug for iPod, smartphone, or even just a thumb drive full of MP3s.
Fun to drive, Spiritedly, Roomy for its size
Stellar fuel economy; favourable pricing; roomy interior; fairly sporty for a hybrid.


Cons:

Awkward interior styling
Engine is pushed to its limits on steep hills
Easily intimidated by pick-ups and SUVs
Underpowered engine
Tight second row
Seats lack lumbar adjustment.
Visors need extenders.
Audio/nav display panel hard to read in direct sun.
No voice command to switch to USB mode.
Could use a rear anti sway bar.
Large bumps are not well absorbed by the suspension.
Offset instrument cluster
Low speed brake pedal feel
Ride can be stiff over some roads; poor interior materials quality; noticeable wind noise; slow acceleration.
Acceleration might get on the highway can be scary at times.



There was also a comment on the wheel size, saying that it does not have any impact to the road holding. Is the true?

I always thought that having a wider wheel will get a better road holding coz of its heavier. Any thought?

Read at the pros & cons... totally contradicting... What a stupid comment they can give.

When they have nothing else to comment, they give rubbish.

Affordable price yet still demand luxury.

PC wheel consider as standard for 1.5L car, like that also can comment, sigh... A job of cars reviewer

While googling around today I found some info which I think is very useful for u guys(PC owner).

How can i make my PC siren sounds in the car park while I am searching it? There are only 2 buttons on the remote control, door unlocked and locked. Yes I haven't gone through the manual, no time for it yet.

yup event motorcycles above 250cc got tax .. that why it can cost over 20k in malaysia for a bike ..

Try 2 buttons, lock buttons first then unlock buttons, vice versa, 5 times of unlock/lock buttons. No way to on the siren. Don't think got that function. Anyone know how?

Bro you must be right. Thinking about it, the PC launch on this year Feb. By the time he got it might be 2~3 months later. Let say on May he got his PC, so to say in 5 months time he drove 8000 km. 1600 km per month, 53.5 km travelling on the road per day. Well, still ok...I travel around 46 km per day at klang valley to work.

Anyway, folks over there at Penang will check it over before buying it. I don't think ppl there are so stupid to buy it straight way. Don't you agree, bro?

Congrats bro, enjoy a greener ride

Could be a great deal. About or Less then 6 mths old car. Unless car encounter major accident before, else don't think there is a big problem. But of cause test drive thoroughly before buying it.

then need to install the autolock moduler to get this function ..

Anyone else have farting brake sound?
When i press my brake it sound like the car farted... lol....

Added on October 24, 2012, 12:30 amalready install, cost me around 200, press break will autolock all door...but need manual unlock after off the car for penumpang...

1st Official Gathering for Prius C LYN Fan Club
Time 10am onwards
Location : Car Park in Taman Jaya A & W

No LYN ID Confirmation
1 vey99 Yes
2 engah Yes
3 verotex Yes
4 tkn Yes
5 conqu3ror Late - 10.30am
6 aragongon Maybe
7 cheesyken Late - 10.30am
8 timeonce Yes

Good deals are there, just take some effort and time to find & verify that they're indeed genuine deals. I got my 2nd hand PC at 3 months old for 81.5K but without DVD-AVN or reverse camera. The only downside was it already had close to 10K km on it. I've driven it for 2 month and put on 4K km and glad to know it is so far so good.

The seller is quite a loaded fella because he bought it just to satisfy his curiosity. He sold it because he didn't like the size of the car.

I think I know that fella who is selling in Penang and the car is already sold. Main reason for selling is the small size; lady owner who use to drive a V6 Harrier. So u know why it is considered small and underpower when u use to drive a V6 SUV.

To me, coming from a big bike rider, most cars available in this country is "underpowered" U want power, get a bike. U want comfort, get a car. U want comfort yet save fuel, get the P.C.
