QUOTE(mockv1per @ Apr 24 2008, 02:05 PM) it is not assemble here, its a CBU from Japan. No changes, everything is a Daihatsu Terios except the D badge is replaced by P badge. thats about it. Really? CBU from Japan? That's gonna jack up the price a little, dun ya think?

QUOTE(analyzer85 @ Apr 24 2008, 02:28 PM) notice how toyota seems to be bringing in CBU cars nowadays instead of CKD kits? e.g. toyota camry.. used to be locally assembled now buying from thailand.. y is it so eh? have to wait 4-6months to get the car some more.. This is becoz Toyota Japan has lost all faith with UMW Toyota... UMW keep on screwing up when they assemble CKD Toyotas... The previous Vios engine fiasco really pissed off Toyota Japan... Added on April 24, 2008, 2:34 pmQUOTE(ston3r @ Apr 24 2008, 02:29 PM) that looks like a Rush to me.. so they gonna say, "Looks like a Rush, sounds like a Rush... but it's not a Rush... it's a Nautica!"  Toyota Rush owners are gonna cry bloody murder at this one... This post has been edited by Vanquish: Apr 24 2008, 02:34 PM

QUOTE(analyzer85 @ Apr 24 2008, 02:44 PM) care to enlighten me on the Vios engine thing? i didn't hear about it. The first batch of the Vios 1.5L VVT-i engine had some major QC problems... The engines weren't put together with care, I can't quite remember what the exact problem was but it has something to do with the VVT-i activation system... When Toyota Japan found out about this... They ordered UMW Toyota to cease production of the 1.5L engine, and instructed Toyota Thailand to supply the engines to UMW...

QUOTE(analyzer85 @ Apr 24 2008, 03:04 PM) i didn't know UMW were constructing engines locally.. hmm.. but i do know of the problems they had when the were assembling the first batch of avanzas'... my cousin was working for this engineering firm that was to maintain the machines used to make the body panels. it seems the japanese QC managers were very unhappy since alot of these panels failed QC inspections and whole lot of it was rejected. that was why the avanza had a long waiting list and also held up the assembly of the MyVi's... long story short, the QC inspection managers from japan "re-engineered" the assembly plant where this body panels were made.. the entire processed was reviewed because it failed QC inspections i guess this is why your are paying so much for a toyota UMW weren't constructing engines, they were merely assembling the knocked-down engine kits... And can you imagine that they even screw up assembling the engine together...
