Hshs 5th Gear September 20, 2007 Share September 20, 2007 (edited) I still can remember 5yr ago I chosen between Mit Lancer and Corolla(JDM). They are about at the same price. What the Old Lancer price now 55k? Anyway, if you like it just go ahead. Here just sharing my view. Edited September 20, 2007 by Hshs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carcrazy Neutral Newbie September 20, 2007 Share September 20, 2007 I'm driving an altis now. Its a reliable car, reasonable pickup and fuel consumption. I agree with the creaking and juddering sounds, brought it back to BM 3 times already they always cannot fix.If there's a negative to it, it'll be servicing at BM. 20k servicing, sent at 8.30am, when i went to collect at 1pm still not ready. Made me stone there for 2 hours more, with a broken coffee machine. Read newpaper back to front twice. Come back still had the juddering sound. But overall the car is ok i guess. hi bro..if your car still under warranty, will have to go back BM to do servicing like engine oil at $200++ and wait for a whole day issit? What does BM warranty consists of ?? Thks in advance! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But of coz, Made in Thailand. Any comments? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verve 1st Gear September 20, 2007 Share September 20, 2007 the speedo looks like a copy of the vw and skoda speedo, a little european but its better. the rear still looks like the current altis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But of coz, Made in Thailand. Any comments? This one is launched earliest in China last year when Axio was launched. The body frame like wheel base, width etc is basically the same like the G9, Altis. Engine spec (Axio & China 1.6) looks similar to the G9 / Altis as well. So I consider complete face lift just like the 92 Corolla changed to 95 model. -- That time also look complete changed but body frame and engine remain similar. Of course hopefully we get more perks like both directions steering adjustment, smart key (keyless eng start) etc. Still, is new look, model. I will go for Axio. Oh just for one more important point, the rear seat floor is flat.! Edited September 20, 2007 by Tanjkp Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
