QUOTE(Nitrous @ Feb 5 2014, 07:33 PM) Its a very personal question, it all depends on individual. If you can live with manual on a day to day basis, manual is definitely a better choice IMHO, as the manual gearbox for the CRZ is as slick as it can get, and has a great feel to it. However if you are stuck in a jam most of the time, manual gearbox can be frustrating to live with, and the auto can be a left leg saver.... The other item to consider if you are planning for mods, especially on power mods, as most aftermarket stuff are made for manual CRZ. Very limited amount of mods are made for auto CRZ, and some are not even available for auto box (such as the Idle-Stop Canceller). If you are going for mods, CRZ manual cars are the best and can cope better with more power and high torque from the engine (forced induction mods). If you are going this path, it is either you import the manual CRZ via Honda Malaysia (gonna be very expensive), or get a used ZF1 manual CRZ which can be bought at a good bargain now.  Hope this helps! I would say the same thing... 100% agree. |

166k-170k with tax expected, i thought it would be near 200k at first cause lots of cars tax 100% or more.

Even if there's no more warranty the crz is not THAT rare in Malaysia. Should still be ok.

I think this is because the actual car price is actually quite low. Part of the 119k otr price before this goes to AP (30k+) if not mistaken. So if tax based on car price alone it makes sense at 160k+ |

Meanwhile, UMW Toyota Motor president, Datuk Ismat Suki, commented that the plan of assembling Toyota Camry hybrids locally will depend on the decision of extending the tax exemption. Without the tax incentives, hybrid automotive cannot be priced attractively, hence, suppressing its demand.
With the increase of petrol and diesel prices, the hybrid automotive market has been receiving lucrative response from automotive buyers. However, if the hybrids could no longer be priced competitively, the demand may simmer down. The middle income earners who are keen on the hybrids may rethink their decision as not to dent their budget.middle income will think about like this... - buy normal car for 100k rather than 170k and keep the extra 70k for petrol - i need to pay more interest for 170k unless i pay cash - uncertain whether bank will approve for 170k car whereby no prob with 100k |

Middle income can afford 170k ? They dont need to think, its obvious they cant afford it at all.
Mid income 5-10k per month earner like me can only afford Proton cars.

I am not a Honda worker, but Honda Malaysia has never brought in any such kits before in their history. You are better off importing the set yourself and get someone to install it for you, assuming that the Malaysia CRZ cars are compatible with it (note it is only meant for US market CRZ, they have different ECU codes). |

Usually Honda will promote bodykits only.. performance parts I don't think so. need to go to Amoil racing or other performance shop to get all the engine upgrade. parts... |
