Any photo to share? Thai GX sport RIM 16" or 17" or other nice RIM
suit / compatible with VIos car and tyre's size/width/ depth..
Will show few tyre shop owner to source for it..
*
Went to 5 big tyre shops, many good + nice RIMs there, then show GX Rim photo and Toyota GX website, none of them or their suppliers got GX Rim. Called 2x Toyota Service Centre's spare parts dept, GX Rim is very very expensive. Will Google tyre shops, whatapp listed phone numbers and seek for GX Rim.

Went to accessory shop, changed 1set/pair of small lamp and 1 set/pair number plate bulbs to Philips T10 6000K LED bulbs (12yrs warranty) and cost 1x set /pair rm 85. Made in CHN bulbs 1set / pair rm 30, alternative option. Super nice white colour at night view. Perhaps, I should check and see T10 6200k or 6700k led bulb is giving better view??

Hi, new joiner here. I have booked my car - FL Vios 2017 G Spec on March 2017 and get it after 2 weeks+ even though the SA told me need to wait for 1 month due to lack of stocks.

Reason to get vios instead of city mainly due to my house got 2010 vios which is the dugong style and civic 9th gen (4 years car). which after comparing to this 2 honda and toyota... Honda seems like quality drop a lot which the civic recently keep going in for servicing and changing spare parts which claim under warranty. and the vios is just having once major service once hit 5 years which i fix it at outside workshop.

Besides, my friend's city the car leg having some problem d and he just bought it 2 years ago. Not really confident with Honda already after see so much cases happened.

Just my opinion why i get vios instead of city. btw city do really offer a good accessories and interior functionality is better.

Great decision making. Historical established automotive lean manufacturing like FMEA, SPC, Poka Yoke, 5S, TPM, 8D report, Root cause analysis(RCA) ..etc many more, already proven Toyota worldwide sales and many peoples judgments seluruh dunia. Vios engine is using Double OHC(DOHC) , while Vios competitor is using Single OHC(SOHC) engine.

Only in this country, people choosing good accessories over Vios. VIOS Rear disc brake is extremely important to stop the car efficient, effective and confidently, rather than giving you many fancy accessories.. For lady driver, 5.1M turning radius is important too. Make an appointment visit to Vios competitor 's assembly plant in Pegoh, Melaka, you will see their Lean automotive manufacturing, as well as thousand of New cars parking in very very big land under raining and hot sun daily. Just my previous visit observation findings..

aiyoyo..so many technical jargon ...ppl don't like Toyota already la.. now ppl got choices...car so ugly ,initially don't want put in VSA ,now suffer poor sales ...

now I hardly see any new VIOS on the road ....RM90k car don't have VSA? now padan muka
*
All new car got VSC.. You will like the GX or TRD specs, eventually got less in yr rural areas road. Go big urban areas and open your eyes big.. Your view maybe different after that.

Worldwide sales is the key important measurement. Only in this country, WHY peoples were choosing interior fancy accessories and exterior design? Many automotive companies emphasize on lean automotive manufacturing for improvement.

don't talk to me using jargon ..all new vios  got VSA that one I know...before facelift don't even have VSA in rm100k model la

You didn't answer the question.. Is worldwide sales is key important measurement, compared to in this country sales? Why your view say ugly while worldwide peoples made their judgments otherwise?

Since you travelling 2hrs to / back working daily, and open big eyes, what is your view on GX / TRD spec? You said, Vios is Hardly seen on the road, but definitely you saw GX / TRD cars..

Different people got different levels of view.. We all here want to listen to your view.. Perhaps, Toyota engrs / designer / boss will take yr feedback and make improvement.

no, world wide sales is not important measurement for a car buyer to make a decision  . overseas? perhaps they are stupid as well to pay for non VSA car ? or maybe the price is cheap ..ohya ,it's cheap at overseas...only UMW price at 70-100k...lol

I always told.all of my friends ,colleagues ,that those early per facelift buyer is Toyota fans ....know ntg other than rear disc brake...hahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahha...ya and DOHC ....for day to day driver,sohc is powerful enuf .... I care more about VSA,abs ,6airbags , and fuel consumption....

You didn't answer your view on GX or TRD cars you saw on the road. Anyway, different people got different levels of views.

City or Vios = B segment car competitors. Perhaps Care more of getting C or D segment car..

GX , TRD watever they called , the exterior about the same .... wat kind of comment u expect ? one thing whenever i see VIOS on the road , they like to open the rear fog light ...so whenever i see rear fog light , its VIOS ...i donno why , maybe they want to be attention seeker...

sometime feel like throw a stone to break their rear fog light ..so annoying! mad.gif
*
I agreed on the fog lights.. Should only open fog lights when in heavy rain or cannot see road view.. Same reminder to City 2017 FL car drivers with fog lights..
BTW, got different on GX and TRD, right?

If you search mudah, lazada, lelong or Philips websites, cost of Philips x-treme ultinon t10 6200k or 6700k about rm 85 - 130 .
Photo of 7:15pm evening and night.. t10 led light is brighter than drl when turn on small light.. But when turn on main headlamp, main yellow light covers everything.. no issue on regulation . Just look very great + nice during evening, going to change to dark..number plate led light is great, but cannot display publicly..

If you turn ON small lamp t10 led white on yr daily normal driving, more led white to yr car, as drl + t10 white lights both 2gether look nice on the road..but remember to off small lamp light, otherwise sound beep when off engine..
Changed 4x GX Rim at Toyota Service Centre today.

Just changed front small lamp and number plate bulbs to Philips t10 6000k bulbs.
No plan to change fog or main headlamp to white, to comply with regulation..now, after reading yr view on above brighter aspect thought, today onwards I turn ON t10 small lamp during normal driving daily, as I found that by turning on both t10 + Drl lights 2gther is awesome result than drl alone..

How about your old rims n tyre ? Able to trade in?
*
Service Centre staff took out original tyre from old rim, and put these tyres into new GX Rim.. Service Centre cannot accept trade in old rim.. Gave old rims to my friend today, to be fitted into her advanza car. Lazy and i Didn't drive out and ask tyre shops whether they want 6 months old rim or not. Tyre shops got sell many new rims .

Next target = good nice looking exhaust?? 4x nice head with chrome thin flat square outputs, 2x each on left and right respectively, tight with strong screw and nut holding..

Just a B segment car discussion here.. I seated in camry / lexus car before, car move above certain speed or go fast through bump, also felt shaking a bit and sometime exhaust hit the bump too.

Road got speed limits, and road bump creation is to slow down speed. You buy any cars but with impatient driving mode, will also facing similar feedback again..

I decided for vios because of the reliability. My model is the last before the new facelift. Dungong face. No issue at all after using 4 years. Wear and tear sure have.
