Good try UMW.. It's still bunch of fans.

If the third row is not important. But u want to have large capacity boot.

Why not HRV low spec? The price is more or less the same.

Say yes to 1.8L engine
Say bye to auto door

Give & take
*
Hermm.. Had an eye for HRV before, but cant bring in 2 bicycle inside, no low floor with high roof, no power sliding door, and most importantly no rear aircond

Summore i need 5 people inside but still comfort, 5 adult inside HRV kinda cramp, even in CRV is not that comfortable.. So with 7 seats, not most of the time utilize for 7 people..

And rm100k for HRV is for low spec, while rm100k for sienta is full spec..
Well this thing depend on personal opinion la.. My home got CX-5 already, so no need another SUV..
and the waiting list.. is killing me.. sweat.gif sweat.gif

but HRV also not bad.. its lighter then sienta, with 1.8 engine sure a lot faster in acceleration
electric parking brake sure come in handy bcoz its electronic compare old style cable hand-brake for sienta
but no EPS for HRV kinda weird.. nowadays even Bezza is EPS steering system

Bezza doesn't seem to use EPS. It is still using hydraulic.

nope.. i'm sure its EPS.. just now check at their website.. even for Bezza low spec with manual transmission using EPS..

i think even myvi use EPS already ..... hydralic is too expensive for car manufacturer

hermm.. maybe not cost effective.. simpler system and less hassle.. the downside for EPS is when alternator or battery got problem, so does the EPS..

when u get the car, give more review pls .... still in thinking stage, i don't need 7 seater but need large boot space + 4wd will be even better smile.gif
*
will do.. but as for ur reference, 7 seater + large boot space + 4WD = more to SUV.. this mini MPV not that powerful in term of acceleration with kerb weight 1350kg and a mere 1.5liter engine with 140Nm torque..

even HRV is a lot better when comparing power to weight ratio, 1267kg and 1.8liter engine with 170Nm torque.. 7 seater more to Nissan Xtrail, Isuzu MU-X, and Hyundai Santa Fe.. but all that already reach rm150k mark price..

It's decent enough. For the v spec, it looks very simple and somewhat plain. But I'm ok with that too.

What spec did you book?
Yes, agreed.

Inside is quite spacious and comfortable though.

highest spec, V spec with auto aircon.. now waiting for it, sold my car already..

Great. I prefer the V spec also. Was playing around with the air con during test drive.

while me playing with its audio DVD-AVN.. can read MP4 video file is good enough for me as the max quality can read 720p video size.. no lagging, quite good player.. that's why it price rm3k lol.. huhu..
but i think kenwood with the same spec n papago latest version is better..

Yeah, I prefer V spec as well. Just dunno when to buy as I didn't plan to buy now.

I went to showroom twice already. So far, saw orange, white, brown and black colors. I want to look at silver and grey colors. Hehe.
Are you upgrading the 3k DVD-AVN? SA told me around 2k+. But I don't think I will upgrade.
*
yup rm3k if u buy it alone.. with trade-in DVD-AVX, u need to add rm1.8k..
i upgrade due to video quality, touch screen respond, audio quality and its from pioneer.. summore had n xtra cash to do..
roof monitor also will be install after getting the car (which PnP to the player + hand brake system hack to see video while driving)

this the DVD-AVX player will be getting for Sienta V, DVD-AVN as shown in most showroom unit need to be upgrade

this the player will be getting for Sienta G

I got an offer of 1K discount, full tank petrol, standard toyota umbrella, keychain, 1st aid kit, battery charging cable. The SA also give me RM100 as I need to buy a smarttag and pass him the receipt.. but think will just ask him to give me RM100 will do..

He told me by 1 Sep, he will know when can I get the car, I booked the car since end July so mostly will get it by early or mid Sep.

In regards to the AVN, additional 2K sound not worth it.. but will not change the AVX until later time cause afraid those accessories shop people might not familiar with the new car and might spoiled something..so better wait till later before doing any change. Will first remove the hand break interlock first before adding other stuff.. if able to retain the same player for awhile before upgrade to have amp, woofer, and roof mounted display.

Anyone tested whether the AVX or AVN able to display Chinese wording?? most of my MP3 and movie are all with Chinese wording..
*
Actually the player is same with all other toyota cars, they have same exact socket n fitment even for other brand like pioneer n kenwood, so should be no issue..
I found Pioneer AVIC with PApago navigation and support a lot more video file format with price at rm1.4k, quite cheap actually..
There a few features more for DVD-AVN toyota player like miracast, internet browser, wifi and so on.. But will not use it all the time.. Most of the time either navigation, video player n music player..
There are someone reply here can give rm1.5k discount.. U just need to read back a few pages before..

Now, I'm tempted to upgrade to DVD-AVN.
1.2k discount is good. The Toyota showroom I went didn't give any discount at all.
*
Just want to update something, the video file format supported only AVI and MP4
Quite ok, i've tested with 1080p video converted to MP4 file, the file size around 3-4gb still can read with no lag at all..

The player resolution is 800 x 480 right? What's the point to play 1080p video on that one. Better convert to 480p, save some space.
*
probably because i'm thinking of getting higher resolution for roof monitor.. 10' with bigger resolution..

Both well said...

Last weekend survey around tyt wish 2002. Not interested on X the spec (empty car Feel).
Was qouted full spec rm115K + 5.6K (reg & Insurance) = Rm120600. Not so worry abt warranty issue.

My dilemma here on choosing which should I buy. Personally i like Wish which the look and feel more elegance than Sienta. Sienta give me the feel like vios/city class or normal.

But my wife, kids and i were very tempted to Sienta sliding doors, meter got LCD menu and the recording AVR or gadget etc... Basically Sienta package give me less headache to addon accesories like AVR, tinting n etc...

Wish price to me is rm120600k + (1.5k Tinting) + 2k (Coating) + 3.5K (Carplay player+roofmonitor) + 3K (no. plate) + Rm700(AVR) = Rm131300
Sienta price rm98900 (after Discount) + 600 (Tinting double layer black) + 2K(coating) + 3.5K (Carplay player+rmonitor) + 3K (no Plate) =rm108000

Price different around rm23300 to me. Need to Loan 30K for 3yrs.

If i buy wish i need to lower my weekend spending and not much holiday trips for at least 3yrs. Kids n wife might not enjoy the lifestyles. After 3yrs only can enjoy lifestyles.

If buy Sienta, everything will remain same. No need installment. Monthly got xtra rm900++ saving from buying wish. Can stuck in many enrichment program for the kids. Downside is low engine CC and engine noise when floor pedal to cut lane which a bit stress to me.

Should i go for Sienta and wait another 10-12yrs round to buy a higher CC elengance car.
If were you, honestly which you prefer base on my situation...
*
another big point u forgot to mention.. it is also the reason why i didnt chose wish over sienta..
rear aircon, especially for our hot weather country.. this is kind of important.. because of this one big point i chose sienta, not the 5 years warranty, not the sliding power door, or bigger boot space with low level floor..
