What Vios spec is in yr mind ? Color?

Saw in mudah, GX aerokit with paint, cost rm 800 ..
And nice similar Mercedes Benz led tail lamps design as below :-
Will poison your mind and influence/ ask yr nearby ACCS shop to order from mudah supplier and pay minimal labour cost to install..

Thinking about..

Congrats.. Show us yr new car photo here..

Remember to put super white LED bulbs for front small lamp and number plate bulbs, to become even more nicer.. ACCS shop should be able to open and change these bulbs, if you reluctant to make changes DIY for new car..

Got bid and tender special car numbers ? Or get other states numbers? Many ppls like car number plate starts with V ..

Mean, yr car register by Friday, fix necessary and car collection on Saturday..

FYI only.. good tires were compared for 17 inch and bigger rim..Considering PS 3, Hankook, Goodyear tire in future..

Yes, thinking of PS3..Surveyed Hankook too..
the variance different between PS3 195/55/R15 and genuine CC5 185/60/R15 is marginal.

JD POWER 2017 - Initial Quality Study.. Fyi only..

http://www.jdpower.com/press-releases/2017...ality-study-iqs

Consider newest Vios, GX .. if budget allows.
Many friends and relatives, "regret" later of not getting nicer high spec.

1. Better NVH, due to acoustic main windshield and front driver/passenger windows.

2. More efficient, effective and confidently to use BOTH front and rear brake DISC.

3. Nicer sport rim, speedometer and aerokit.

But for me only, the leather seat design color is ugly .. Safety>Exterior>interior

Yes, acoustic main windshield, front driver and front passenger windows.

Here it goes about Acoustic windshield technical analysis and supporting analysis
on improving Noise, safety, reducing sunlight UV ?? and etc..

Not sure, future level of thickness of acoustic glass will affect smart Tag, smartphone signals??

Yes, buy car within budget..

If in future got extra income, can gradually spend the expense and upgrade it.. thru ordering from Accessory shop or Service Centre.. New myvi already got good safety features, nice exterior and interior design..

Yes, written here ==>> https://toyota.com.my/vehicles/car/vios

Acoustic windshield glass and side glass..

Main Acoustic windshield glass is about +2 inch extra thickness..
Get volume meter to measure the decibel level.

https://m.wikihow.com/Measure-Decibels

Hard to determine, as few factors.
1. Driving Constant speed at 80/h .. 2'. make sure wind blowing direction speed is marginal, same road condition and others..
Let us know the results..

Both specs got leather seats, but different leather design and colors, speedometer..

GX got DUAL tone shinning sport rim SHOE and wear aerokit SKIRTING.. G spec just normal sport rim, no aerokit..
In term of safety features, engine, same.. In term of accessories, some claimed GX is nicer, some prefer to G due to conventional genuine taste..

More refer to ==>> https://toyota.com.my/vehicles/car/vios See sample GX sport rim photos as below

New better facelift or car models coming?? To compete in B segment..

It is depending on individuals.. For me, my priority is aerokit, sport rim, HU, but not the leather seat..

Go outside and order aerokit. The expense cost range from 850 - 1300, depending on material.. Service Centre(SC) quote 2.3K

imho, I think SC void the paint colors portion only, if got any claim warranty..
But, many many Vios drivers , just do it and install aerokit..
Without nice aerokit/skirts and sport rim/shoe, many many "2nd wife" shy go out on the road??

After UPGRADE aerokit, next is sport rim SHOE.. just a thought only.

Small issue.. next service go to SC, talk to Service Advisor to get SC painter will bring small bottle of paint(FOC), for touch up.. 2 weeks later, wax the surface..

Get ready small bottle by oneself.. make friend with SA, starting with joke.. later go get SA mobile phone number for fast appointment, question, or anything..
