You guys think the only thing went up is petrol meh? Wait until everything else increase and then see if you still have the cashflow as you had before to do whatever weight saving, cosmetic mod it seems.

Does government allow private car to fill with gas like taxi? I was wondering it could save our fuel.

According to the taxi driver, they fill in the gas in Petronas station cost only about RM8. Any idea to convert your car by using gas?

From now on, the most practical mod is to mod for better aerodynamics to cut FC, and also mod engine for higher efficiency.

I foresee City i-DSI's 2nd hand value will be strong.

Anyone itchy to convert to NGV, now that NGV price is maintained?

car modding is just like a terminal sickness.......... can only be cured when u're dead.........i know, becos i have been suffering from this illness for the last 25 years, and still no sign of getting well, even with the current fuel prices.

IF ur car get stolen then design same like other ppl. Its gonna be hard to get it back.

With modding (inexpensive one also can)

The possibility of recovering it is 50% higher. LOL
