2 yrs old CBU want to sell at above RM60k? U must be kidding.  doh.gif  If what you said they are selling at 68k, then I would choose a NEW one only at 70k lor. Got 3 years warranty somemore...  whistling.gif

When the CKD came out, their CBU has no value... kesian!

Neway, yes thre is already a thread discussing about this car.

My house got a 2008 Suzuki Swift CKD, from what i can see,the quality is almost as good as the CBU unit, IMHO much better than Honda City(I am drivin this, Year2004 Vtec)/Toyota Vios). Very nice car to drive, just feel a bit underpowered
*
as the platform handling is better. how the FC performance?

FC is quite good, comparable to Altis 1.8G. RM50 can go about 350km-400km, bear in mind that this is on a new car with less than 1k mileage, it might improve after the first service(10k).... FC wise do not worry la it's better than most of the car on the road, handling wise is really superb compared with my H.City  sweat.gif

its pro & con actually, see what is your need. smile.gif
so far, there is no such good fc yet good handling vehicle isn't it?

how much ur swift cost u OTR?

i still remember there was a topic argue b4 in autoworld.com.my btw swift & city laugh.gif

OTR is around 72k, interest rate around 2.4%(Might get lower if your credit from bank is good) rclxms.gif , overall nice car to drive, but not really suitable for family of 4 due to not so comfortable back seats  sweat.gif + small boot

ish..couple mah biggrin.gif

CKD = assembly in Malaysia by local or probably Indonesia or Bangladesh labour blink.gif
CBU = 100% made in Japan mostly assembly by robot brows.gif

suzuki swift owner reporting in...well jus get my blacky CKD on 28/2, driving for bout 2 months d...very happy with it...good handling le...

bout FC, i can said is much more heavy comparing same class 1.5 like vios and city....1st thousand km, is take me  bout 18-19cent/km le..(town driving)...nw mine is bout 8k++ d, city+highway, cost me around 16cent/km...

swift is 4 auto, D->3->2-L....so if u drive by D, sure is underpower, coz the rpm is keep btw 2k-3k rpm.....so when driving around town area, my advice is push to 3, u wont feel it was underpower, then when on highway, push it back to D after 110-120km/h, it will save a lot of FC.

personally, i prefer swift vs city (vtec)....when i drove my sis city, i feel hatchback is much more stable and good cornering....honestly speak, 72k is worth for it...

rclxms.gif nice car you driving
