With current exchange rate, 24k is now under 9k sgd.

 

Cheaper than quite a lot of the larger bikes here.

Saw this car in JB while washing car. Quite a good ride.

 

I heard Sg Perodua is bring in this car very soon. Last heard from the sale counter there while looking for budget car and flexi loans.

Rented a Myvi b4 in MY. Nippy, spacious but really feels like milo-tin on wheels. Dare not go beyond 80kmh on the highway as it feels quite unsafe..... [sweatdrop][sweatdrop]

 

If one has tasted the finer things in life (ie. daily drive is an expensive continental make), naturally a Myvi is like a milo-tin on wheels.

 

In comparison, if someone whose everyday car is a Tata Nano, Chery QQ or Perodua Kelisa, the Myvi may feel like a Rolls Royce on wheels.

Proton Axia will be launched in Spore in Nov 2015.

 

Pricing expected to be about $85K for 1.0A based on current COE price.

 

That's a whopping RM255,000, and can drive for only 10 years.

 

The Malaysians must be laughing their heads off!

 

This money buys them 10 Axia in Malaysia.

At current COE levels, I dont think there will be more than a handful of takers for this.

 

Why spend 85K for a Malaysian vehicle, when a Chery J3 S-Coupe (MIC) cost 5k less (with more bhp) and a Nissan Note (MIJ) cost 5K more?

 

Doesn't make much sense for them to bring it in. Unless COE drops to 40K range, and this will cost 65-70K...

Perodua Axia review is finally out:

 

http://www.sgcarmart.com/news/review.php?AID=941&PN=3

 

Surprising that there's no manual option for  a basic N.A. 1 litre car, whereby a hand job is the more sensible option.

 

The writer is rather diplomatic in :

 

1) Not highlighting that the steering wheel is non adjustable, which means it might pose a challenge entering and exiting from the seat if the driver is above 1.7m tall or has a pot belly.

 

2) Writing that it "seats 5 adults comfortably". It may fit 3 of Serina Wee in the back seat with relative comfort, but 3 of Kong Hee in the back seat means having to sit close legged, resulting in the male testicle suffocating, and eventually leading to impotency in the long term.

 

Current price of $87,888 inclusive of non-guaranteed COE is unexciting.

Its finally available in Spore


Made in Malaysia cars are better than china ones

A basic NOTE is 93k. Not cheap you know

The way the Axia is priced at $76K is asking for an early exit from the market.

 

Same price as Mitsubishi Attrage 1.2 and Nissan Note 1.2. How to sell?

 

Cost price of Axia with Cat A COE at $45K, is $60k.

 

Price it at $70K with a $10K profit margin, still have some hope to sell.

 

Even German made Ford Focus Trend 1.6 (which is worlds apart from the Axia) is selling at a profit margin of only $8K @$88K.
