Not everyone needs it..8k for that? Ok haha
For a small car how much difference can the temperature be from both the zone when ur inside the car?

for my view, 8k worth it. its comes with leather seat+LED+GPS+17" Rim+Chrome door+dual zone aircond

The car not required body kit, its already sporty. No need coating, feel i can take care the car well.

Initially i also considering 1.5 TC as just different by RM10k only with leather seat, 17" sport rim and 1.5 turbo engine. Not to mention the cheaper road tax.

But all i need is a reliable car with appropriate power, i learnt that those turbo car as per some members highlighted in V1 or V2 thread, turbo engine will drop in performance after 6 years or may need overhaul and require more frequent oil engine service (about 7k km).

Secondly the resell value likely will worst than 1.8cc as per current second hand market for turbo car compare to ordinary car.
The second hand market just not believe those special car like turbo or hybrid engine.

The most important is when i test drive 1.5tc, the engine is so loud and shaking. I n my wife can feel the vibration in driving cabin. This 1 really push me away. I'm wondering probably that due to show room car n everyone just tekan it to the max n spoil the engine.

I'm driving a 1.6cc car which could push to 170kmh easily. Hence, i think 1.8cc is good enough to satisfy me. Moreover, the top limit is same as 1.5tc since the machine is capped that way. What's the point of getting higher power if u cap it?

I will disagree with the statement... I am driving 1.5 TCP.. 3 weeks ready.. i love the ride and the performance. Dont give opinion based on hybrid tale/experience...
The car doing very well, depends indvidiual opinion.
