QUOTE(sysh @ Dec 27 2008, 12:17 PM) 1.5E Clever. In that case, better opt for MUGEN since both are the same price. Hehe...Modulo kit, perhaps you can source it out of HM and it'll cost you < RM2k  |

Nobody can tell anyway.Just make sure you don't get those capalang type which is super cheap. You'll regret later And also to make it more real, can always paste the Mugen or Modulo logo. Nobody will know "Imitation is the best form of flattery"  |

QUOTE(bluesky87 @ Dec 27 2008, 02:04 AM) If I am not mistaken from what I read from the latest issue of Motor Trader it's also written there that Honda is planning to make 1.5k sets per month BUT IF YOU READ AUTOCAR MAGAZINE NOVEMBER 2008, CAR SALES IN SINGAPORE FROM JANUARY TO SEPTEMBER 2008, HONDA IS NO. 1 (18,944), TOYOTA(INCLUDE LEXUS) NO.2 (18,757), MITSUBISHI NO. 3 (5568), NISSAN NO.4 (4697), MERC NO. 5 (3214), BMW NO. 6 (3091), MAZDA AND SUBARU EQUAL NO.7 (2618), SUZUKI NO. 8 (2612), HYUNDAI NO.9 (2546), Just came back from my Christmas trip to Singapore and the thread has spread more than 10 pages. Anyway since quite a few people did mention about the new city price in SG is expensive I think the only reason is Honda doesn't really care about the sales in SG. What makes me say so is from what I observe in these 4 days in the ratio of 10 cars per model it'll be like 10 subaru, 9 lancer, 9 sonata, 8 lexus, 7 camry, 6 jazz, 5 vios, 5 wish, 5 estima, 4 civic, AMAZINGLY 3 LAMBO, 2 latest GTR, 1 accord, 1 city. It seems like people in SG buy subaru like buying proton for us only while Toyota and Mitsubishi is their priority and yeah I only manage to see one Honda City and one Honda Accord in 4 days and yes I was out on the street all day long  |

You'll regret later And also to make it more real, can always paste the Mugen or Modulo logo. Nobody will know "Imitation is the best form of flattery" I'll only opt for original if: 1. There's no kit available in aftermarket. 2. Quality is bad. |

Not sure this is important though. If those who is interested in 3M tint and how it look on the City, pop down to Damansara showroom. The City there is fitted with 3M Crystalline 70. Looks great!

How much in terms of cash voucher can your SA give? IMHO, a cash rebate is better so you are free to source what ever tint that you want. Unless he is giving you a good offer |

How much in terms of cash voucher can your SA give? IMHO, a cash rebate is better so you are free to source what ever tint that you want. Unless he is giving you a good offer i am very keen in this tint as i kena break by robber before, that time using V-Kool, the robber only hits 2 - 3times, the window totally breaks. so anti-crash can stand up to 20times hard hitting. |

Oh.. security / safety film. Now I get it. It is good to invest in one i am very keen in this tint as i kena break by robber before, that time using V-Kool, the robber only hits 2 - 3times, the window totally breaks. so anti-crash can stand up to 20times hard hitting.  But referring to my post previously, see what the SA is offering you..are the discounts good or not? Cos usually he will give you like a discount, but then the tinting (total price) might be inflated (i.e. jack up the price). That's why I prefer a cash discount on the car, so I can freely go to other shops to shop around for tints with the best price.. |

PMM is not a boring colour. The boring colour is what you see in the showroom. Try to bake under the sun and view it again. It'll be another colour. Then at night, try to see it again. What I can say is it's a multiple tones. PMM is a multiple tones???  Cool!!~~~ I'll go for PMM then.  But... Is PMM easy to maintain?? Coz i'll only be washing my car once a week. Lol!!~ |

I read in today's Star newspaper that Bank Negara may lower the interest rate by another 0.5% next month. Does this mean that car loan interest rate may go down to 2.5% or lower? I am holding back my purchase of the new Honda City until interest rates go down to at least 2.5%. My patience may pay off. Can anyone tell me what is the car loan interest rate now?
