Cool cool.. So Guang Dao is the best VS you've tried so far?? How much will it cost?

Hey, anyone of you guys here plan to get GPS??

I'll be making a trip up to Penang and probably down to Singapore in the next month or two, so was thinking of getting one by then.!! Group buy, anyone??

Cool.!!! When are you planning to get one, bro? I'll wait till wednesday/thursday to see if there's anyone else interested, else i'll just go ahead first.!!

Yup, going for Garmin 205W, the widescreen's much cooler.!! hehe.. I'm going the other way round bro, I will need the GPS more than the bodykit and K&N in the next month or so, so i'm putting off those two for the time being.!

Guys, is the white stain on the door panel right beneath the handle? I noticed during our autolock UOTT that all the cars have it.

I guess probably there might be a clip, or a mount on behind the plastic which is being pulled on. I noticed it on my car from day 1 i got it, and its on the test drive car as well.

Okay, on the GPS group purchase, looks like we've got quite a few interested.!!!

I think i'll be going to get from this seller ====> Link...

So far he's been the quickest, friendliest and most helpful amongst the 3-4 sellers i've PMed. All the feedbacks from his sales are positive, and it seems like he's very highly recommended... He's based in KL as well, so we can do a mini UOTT and get him to give us a group tutorial on how to operate the 205W! hehe.. I think if we go to him and purchase 3-4 units should be able to get a price which matches the seller you pointed out, sysh.!
(or maybe even lower)..

I've already PMed him and asked if can get free screen protector, he said can!

I'll close this Group Purchase on Thursday midnite, so anyone else interested besides the following?

1) sebaver
2) cppau
3) photunecat
4) syncronyzer
5) sharinganez

Once we get more concrete numbers I will update the price he's willing to give us, plus whatever freebies he can throw in. I'll post up details on our UOTT cum GPS tutorial with the seller once we've confirmed the number of ppl participating in this Group Purchase.!

sharinganez, you're based in penang right?? We can get the seller to Poslaju the goods to you, so you can enjoy the Group rate as well.!!

okay peeps.!!

Got a response from the seller already.! 2 -5 units = RM850.. 6-9 units = RM800... 10 units above = RM750.. Free screen protector thrown in as well.!!

Come on come on.!!! More responses quick.!!!

No bro, its mounted, not permanent, so you can take it off anytime....

I think its advisable to take it off when you get out of your car, as its an easy target for thefts!

Hey thanks bro, received your PM.! Will call him to check.!!

Much appreciated.!!

Yup it is, depends on whether you want the sewing for the edges or not only...

For the back seats, it can be cut out into 3 separate pieces or 1 individual piece, no problem.

Yes, group rates are definitely cheaper.!! The carpet is a perfect fit to the floor of your NHC...

The difference? Aesthetics I guess.. I can't really think of any other difference it will make..

Yo Steven.!!

We're definitely honoured that you guys graced our TT with your esteemed presence.! We enjoyed revelling in your company as much as you did.! (maybe even more! )

Anyways been a pleasure TT-ing with you guys. My only grouse is that we weren't mixing around enough... Next time must ban all the TC and HC3 ppl from sitting in cliques.!

Barring any unforseen circumstances, I'll be joining you guys on the 15th, as a new TCOM... And hey, although we're HC3, all you TC blokes are most welcome to join us anytime as well.

It'll be nice to have some "inter-racial", ahem, cross-breeding.? Err, sorry what i actually meant... cross-memberships between both clubs, for fellowship's sake.!!

Bro, which 3rd party map are you currently using??

Is it any good ah?? I'm concerned abt the quality of the maps, cos I think a GPS is only as good as the maps you have! hehe.. Updates free + easily available?

So far all the ppl i've listed in my Group Buy post.. 5 only... Maybe you could help spread the word on the GPS??

Great.!! I'm sold for Malfreemaps.!!

Yup, you can check out details of the GPS here..!!

We're planning to get the 205W...

PM me if you need more details bro!

Bro, been trying hard, but to no avail. Them caucasians are a tough nut to crack.!!!

Wah, sysh doing promotion for his custom mat..!!! I also must hardsell my GPS now.!!

I've updated my earlier post on the GPS as follows:

sharinganez, you're based in penang right?? Shall we Poslaju you the goods so you can enjoy group purchase rate???

Come on ppl, quick quick.!! GPS anyone?? For more info on the Garmin 205W GPS, check out the seller's post.. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/675331...

As of now the going rate is RM800 for the Garmin 205W, with free screen protector.!!

If we can bump up the group purchase to 10 units, then it's RM750 with the free screen protector.!!!

I'm extending the deadline to Sunday midnight... So quick ppl, I need your responses by then.!!

Hey pau.!!

I've been in communication with the seller, he's currently out of stocks for the 205W, but he's expecting a fresh batch of stocks in the next day or two.!!

He'll be outstation this weekend, so looks like we can organise to pick up our GPS on Monday/Tuesday next week?

Hey bro.!!

Yep, I am dealing with him, and he assured me that his margins are very thin, its very hard for him to move from that price. I've asked around shops in Digital Mall, Midvalley and Lowyat... So far they're quoting around RM1.1-1.2k for a Garmin 205W GPS unit... So i think the prices I've quoted from the seller are quite competitive already..!!

His quote: 2 -5 units = RM850.. 6-9 units = RM800... 10 units above = RM750.. Plus, he's throwing in a free screen protector as well as a sweetener.!

I'll make some further enquiries over the weekend to see if his group rates are the most competitive, and will let you know.. Do join us with the bulk purchase if you can.

In a few months, I am sure you may be able to get it for slightly cheaper... just like how handphone prices, laptop prices, etc all fall gradually... But then there will be new models, etc etc... So my advice is if you think its right for you at this point in time, just come in at the group rates. I daresay you'll get amongst the better prices out there.

Hey there.!!

When will you know if you're sourcing your unit from the States or if you're joining the group buy?

One or two peeps on the group buy list have been asked to be put on KIV... Conservatively we're looking at 3-4 buyers for now.. Need another 2-3 fresh buyers to bump it up to 6 buyers @ RM800.!! Will update the list in due course.!
