Not to pour cold water, but none of the cars listed will likely cause a 'bang'.

I think avanza is sold at around s$20k in Indonesia.. How much will it cost here?

[Hamburger]

Toyota Motors Corp developed the seven-seater Avanza for the Indonesian market in 2003.

 

The version to be imported by Borneo Motors will have a 1.5-litre engine driving the front wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission.

 

at least its a trusty box, amid a boring one

The C.O.E. already $75-80+K,price should be about $140K.

Dated engine & transmission....nothing to shout about.

seen like real cool to have the new model in sg.

[Deckbuild]

Have a ride in the avanza once with 6 ppl onboard, 100kph and the rpm is over 3500. Not sure is it the same case for here.

the only bang is when coe is $1

Avanza is a nice basic practical car ..... Have been driven in it in malaysia and indonesia .... But at today's COE .... 120k for such a basic car ?

[4rings]

Four speed automatic transmission? Reliable but boring!

[Zaxx]

Rav 4 with a 2 liter engine? Doesnt the 2013 model comes with 2.5 as standard? Looks like singaporeans are once again being short changed. Pay through our noses and yet given an inferior product :angry:

Yup, in most other markets models like the Azanza give value-for-money seeking buyers a decent choice as point A-B, no frills private transport. Not here thanks to high COE prices which do not control car population, though COE Quota does.
