But, don't you think is such a coincidence that a new account created 1 hour ago happen to come across an old post and try to defend the dealer in question? Chances are he/she is a car dealer from TWA. (Sorry if i offend anyone but i don't like to beat around the bush. Your acc isnt very old too with the first post talking about VES not being confirm for your side 😉 I guess your name already states clearly who you are so you have a vested interest in this issue. I dont like to beat around the bush as well. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont like to beat around the bush as well. Yes, I am a Car Dealer, hence my username TheCarDealer. It's meant to be made known to everyone on MCF. My interest in this is only because i'm eagerly waiting for the VES to be confirmed so i can proceed for VAC and sell our stocks. The only difference is we don't pre-sell a car without VAC so we're not affected by the emission bulls**t. To add on, we do not intentionally create a post to mislead buyers that the one and only car is already on the roads with its happy "owner" where the rest of the 99.9% is waiting for clearance. Please don't tell me TWA only order 1 Shuttle to sell. Edited September 10, 2019 by TheCarDealer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caterpillars 1st Gear September 10, 2019 Share September 10, 2019 I do not think it is beneficial for the PI to hold back our cars. In fact they are more worried than us over the ves for the following reasons : 1. Inventory costs. Customers only paid a deposit of 1 to 2k and the omv of the car is definitely higher hence their cash are stuck unless the car is successfully delivered. 2. Customers can cancel the contract and walk off over the increased 10k more to pay due to ves. The penalty is only 1 to 2k of deposit paid. 3. The TCOE is under the customer name, they can just walk to other PI and get a vac ready stock any day. 4. The PI will be stuck with cancelled orders of petrol shuttle, which pricing is close to hybrid version. Who will want to buy from them then. These cars will get stuck in their inventory. Of course, there will be cases where the customers cannot cancelled the contract easily as there are trade in, special loans agreements etc tied up.

Basic hybrid models entitle to $10,000 VES but X model graded Neutral. No wonder the pre-face-lift X is a lot more expensive than the basic hybrid model. This difference in VES also confused me too as I thought the pre-face-lift hybrids are in the neutral band. All are Shuttle essentially using the same engine within their petrol or hybrid categories but their respective VES are strangely different! Could it be different production lines tune their engine differently? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optional meaning to say a customer can buy a model without the above mentioned features. LED headlights & Fog lights are optional. Yes, you're absolutely correct on the Tail lights. Start/Stop is not a standard feature. There are some dealers selling without this feature. While Honda Sensing is a standard feature for the 2019 Jun FL Shuttle, it is not for the 2018 FL Shuttle.

Do you mean keyless entry & start or engine auto start/stop? Engine Start/stop feature is standard across all petrol engine vehicles to all brands in order to get certified clean emission & fuel saving standard set by Japanese gov. Thats is why PI cars has 1 or 2 small oval stickers on the rear windscreen, there is no way to order 1 unit without this function. Even hybrid version also have start/stop feature to cut off engine if low speed detected. Btw, i am current owner for shuttle petrol version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybrid not even start stop, hybrid is auto cut engine, use battery for it.. Keyless is an option, although many PI offer aftermarket keyless. So far only 3 main variants - Basic Petrol, LED Petrol and Hybrid (3 variants by itself) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha bro, I should be the one asking you this question since you keep on insist that engine start/stop is optional while it is in fact standard on the car. Well, since we already clear the doubts, we shall just chill & relax here. I can see some signs of you losing patient from me. Lets hope bros here can drive home their shuttle asap.
