talking about dealer, for those who wanna purchase from Sri Petaling outlet, try avoid a sales adviser. those who plan to book from there can PM me for her name.
this being my first time new car purchase in my life so im inexperience. no free gift and no cash rebate at all for me is fine, waiting period of 3 months plus is fine as well. but what i dislike were the little stuffs she did to increase some income/sales target for herself.
first thing is, at first tell me the car number plate cost is RM210 (JPJ) + RM100 runner fee.
not only that, got a lot numbers that i requested, aside for those tender one, she tell me the number cost itself is RM800~RM1k (for those not tendered one). i don't have experience on it so i thought it was real.
but during the number plate buying time, she keep drag and the end just kelang kaput got a number that not my top favorite, and tell me RM360 in total, which RM150 belongs to runner fee. i asked her isnt that she said RM100 earlier? she said i listen wrongly. but due to my inexperience, i just stupidly transferred RM360 to her PERSONAL ACCOUNT.
after another period of waiting, when she tell me car being assigned to me, ask me make payment for the DP. just simply give me a number of 10k+, i ask her for the breakdown, and she write it down by hand to me, and i compared with the price that listed by Perodua, ha! found out she didn't exclude the RM300 booking fee i paid to her in cash earlier.
and she just tell me she forgot to exclude. isn't that every single buyers need to pay booking fee when booking a car and thus isn't that logically every single car need to exclude the booking fee when asking buyer to pay the downpayment?
even when i ask for the chassis number, she keep avoid my question and just ask me to be patient. (ya until the day i collected my car, i don't know my chassis number)
ok fine as well, then i found that the insurance fee is RM200+ higher than the one I saw in Perodua price list for the car.
so i question back the lady, she like a bit unhappy and tell me is premium fee (which is real after i checked afterward but i suspect she just simply earn some commission too by register mine under insurance co that charge higher premium charges)
lastly, she ask me to pay RM150 more, for the boot tray. she say is mandatory for OTR. but indeed i do need to boot tray but i still wonder how come it is mandatory for OTR?
only at the last stage i found that it is quite suspecious and i went for another showroom and ask for the salesman there for opinion and below are the outcome:
1. aside for numbers that tendered, all numbers are same price which is RM210 + RM90 of runner fee. but shouldn't be that high until RM150. since the payment i made to her personal account, probably she did "tax" some before pay to runner. so she not only bluff me on the runner fee, even trying to scam me for paying RM800~1k for those non-tendered numbers which is my top favourite numbers.
2. insurance price indeed different from their proposed price but won't be until RM200+ differences.
3. boot tray is not mandatory for OTR but is mandatory for their own monthly sales target. so she just simply slide in and request me to pay for it.
i admit all the above mostly due to my lack of experience. if im experience enough (or ask people around) then i might able to avoid some extra payment.
i walked in to Perodua showroom confidently and never expect such a big company will scam me anything so i just blindly believe everything she request me to pay.
well, a lesson for life. i will be smarter next time buying a car.

1. I engaged a runner from outside and it cost me RM150 for his service.
2. There were 4 insurance companies to choose from. All have different premium to insure the same car. I am surprised on this. Get the cheapest one from the list.
3. Didn't know about the boot tray sales target. The salesperson gave me free Gearup boot tray, Gearup coil mat, Gearup door visor and some cheap stuffs like sticky pad, usb charger, usb phone charger cable, steering lock and full tank petrol.
I get the salesperson to write down what free gifts she is giving me and the cost to get my preferred number and runner fee. All these were in black and white.
