Don't hold your hopes high for the time being and hold on to your guns. If you can wait, you wait. I checked from another shop, it is currently more expensive than ps4 when i checked last week.

Official launch at august, so current supply quite limited and marketing of fk510 is unofficial. Better wait until at least launching to see whether got any good deals. Or else, wait till next year when supply is more consistent and the price stabalises.

That's good news. Rm400+ for that size is pretty cheap already. That price is more inline with what I have expected which is a bit more expensive than the V12E2 but still much cheaper than the premium brands.

M One Tyre JB

Here down south, a lot of tyre shops quite against falken tyres. Even i asked the largest falken dealer in JB, so kanasai way of replying me, the way the person talk to me makes me want to give him a middle finger. M One is the more understanding one that is willing to go the extra mile to help me get the quote i require (albeit very high)

Yes, please help me ask. I'm curious to know, and thank you in advance smile.gif

If rm735, might as well just get PS4 or Continental Extreme Contact Sport, only around rm600/pc, some in Klang Valley can even offer below 600 for PS4 in that size.

I sometimes envy you fellors in the selangor area, earn more than us down south, but things cheaper or at least similar price range bangwall.gif bangwall.gif

Shit that "singapore premium" attitude by the business people ranting.gif Salary and rental lower than, then how can your operating costs be more than those in KL/Selangor??!! Please also don't say logistic costs, because there are 2 damn large international ports in Johor state and some more just a bridge away to one of the world's busiest port country!! vmad.gif

Other things aside from car stuff also more expensive there? Maybe essential things like food and housing are cheaper there, no?

Excellent! That is only like 70-100rm more expensive than V12E2 so just about right price range.

V12E2 does not have 205/50/16 unfortunately. PS4 should have but much more expensive, maybe around or over rm350/pc. Other alternative you can try is the Goodyear F1D5 which is similar directional tire like V12E2 and V701, and should be much cheaper than PS4 but not sure how much.

F1D5 is a pretty good UHP tire. I used that before and quite happy with it. IMHO it performs very close to PS3, a bit less aquaplaning resistance than PS3 but almost similar overall wet grip and dry grip, so still a pretty well balanced tire. I used until >50k km before I changed them. The small negative about this tire is it can be chipping out a bit much if driven hard, but PS3 is also like that and no big deal coz the tire still holds up well.

Very hardly go that area, last time went around there was more than 5 years ago.

Who did you contact for the price? Maybe i try asking whether they have some form of outstation delivery support.

On the other hand, anyone coming down south, i offer tambang RM100 to transport black donut biggrin.gif

Housing, depends on location, but despite the glut, the prices aren't coming down. 70% of properties sold there are above 500k. Normal hawker here start asking price average RM6 per meal without drinks; supermarket food court close to RM10. I don't know about those in your area, but i guess won't be that much more.

Computer/IT/electrical stuffs, your area definitely cheaper; sometimes singapore cheaper even after considering the transport hassle. Car service price, similar price level and sometimes a little bit more expensive as the consumables are more expensive to procure. Clothing/apparels, pricing a little subjective and not so direct, but from what some of the ladies saying, the trend in the south is slower. Water cost, hands down Johor win, the most expensive in Malaysia (but not a bad idea to discourage wasting).

But salary wise, Selangor area about 20% more on average vmad.gif The only thing those in the south can be grateful is the traffic jam not as insane, but we do experience a fare share of it on trip to and fro singapore.

My pricing estimate was kind of there and some more same price as v12evo2 here, but FK510 not available here cry.gif
