Diesel 1st Gear September 30, 2009 Author Share September 30, 2009 Higher yen and plunging US dollar do have major economic consequences. And it is not just the yen, major Asian currency is surging against the US currency. Once the USD tank below a critical point, the major Asian economy will suffer This is because major Asian economy, due to their export nature, export most of their product to US. As USD plunge and Asian currency strengthen, they will find it more difficult/ expensive to export to US/ EU. Look at Japan, they are suffering right now...... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilgamesh Neutral Newbie October 24, 2009 Share October 24, 2009 Wow so good... how is the acceration like?? is it sluggy?? Not really...also, seems like there is a certain timing when you start to press on the accelerator when moving off. At that point, you just need to give it a quick tap and the car will chiong ...

Fff0 Neutral Newbie October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 For those bros whom bought PI cars, any major concern or complaint to share? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickster 5th Gear October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 (edited) sylphy for me...it jus looks much more refined...allion and forte looks alike and i prefer the forte haha anyw a fren of mine has the Allion SJK plate, she was driving Getz previously and she says Allion underpowered.. Yes, the front of the allion & forte looks very similar. Also, the allion is way underpowered as its using a 1.5L engine hauling a 1.3 tonne body?

Mobile1 1st Gear October 28, 2009 Share October 28, 2009 (edited) I do agree it is underpowered!! But it really depends on what you want. Pick up is abit slower. But the cruising is . At the speed of 100kmh, i am cruising at RPM of 2k. Super quiet engine i would say. Its more of a compromise for luxury over power. A proud owner for 6 mths to date.No regrets!

Comfort over power. If want power, then might as well get the fuel-drinking WRX or EVO? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirruslogic Clutched October 28, 2009 Share October 28, 2009 I have an Allion 1.5 and I have also getting 18 km/l - unbelievable! Actually the power is good enough and honestly this Japanese produced car works better than you think a 1.5 cc car would work. With its additional smart features it is much more attractive than an Altis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently change 17" tyre, FC drop to 13+. All this with about 40%HW/60%city and a lot of short distance driving during the weekend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CH_CO 6th Gear October 29, 2009 Share October 29, 2009 (edited) FC looks good. Just seen one allion on the road , looks good too except for the wiper at the back , abit spoiler. Looks like a smaller sized MarkX . On looks alone allion i think better. Latio looks dated from the exterior. Is the new allion priced similiar to Latio/slyphy ? Seems like a good buy , guess i have to wait a little longer. Edited October 29, 2009 by CH_CO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a good buy , guess i have to wait a little longer. Think the rear wiper can be removed (personally didnt try since i quite like it) and put a cute figurine onto the wiper's motor. Saw 1 white allion took it out and replaced it with a pinkish Hello kitty. Driven by a lady obviously. Some interior pic for some potential buyer......
