Seven11 Neutral Newbie January 25, 2002 Author Share January 25, 2002 Tell that to those numerous goons on the roads with the original $3k kit on the roads. I would take the petrol voucher anytime. 3k! is too much lah. VW votex full body kit for Bora only cost $1500. Somemore buy from Autovox. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabiaman 1st Gear February 9, 2002 Share February 9, 2002 Yeah, Borneo doing very well with Corolla and now I see quite a number of Camry as well on the roads. No wonder Inchcape PLC in UK is offering a premium to take back the entire Singapore office. Inchcape Singapore is public listed and the UK parent need to make a general offer to the public investors to take back the Spore company. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yongwd 1st Gear February 10, 2002 Share February 10, 2002 Just got my G9 1.5XLi(A) last week just in time for CNY :P Nothing fancy, everything stock and no sports rims but I press the SE for rebates and fuel vouchers. Not going to mod it anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yongwd 1st Gear February 10, 2002 Share February 10, 2002 my dad driving that G9, he knows how to run in a car better. Although i can drive the G9 anytime, but I still prefer my EE101. No digicam leh Congrats man! Must be gleaming with joy now! Send in your pics when you are ready. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yongwd 1st Gear February 10, 2002 Share February 10, 2002 I believe I made the correct decision. Auto is much quieter then manual G9 due to extra insulation on the firewall. G9 is either u like it or u hate it. Congrats! So got your shell vouchers? More worth than the sad looking boy racer wannabe bodykit IMHO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbobrick Neutral Newbie February 10, 2002 Share February 10, 2002 Auto has better insulation? Strange decision on Toyota's part leh, shouldn't isulation be sama sama throughout the model range? I got digicam lah, find one day I take for you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky8807 1st Gear February 10, 2002 Share February 10, 2002 Corolla G9 whether manual or auto is a good choice. Good fuel economy plus power and torque. Congrats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces69 6th Gear February 10, 2002 Share February 10, 2002 (edited) Cud it b the auto box is quieter than the manual? or maybe u dont have to rev the car so much to get it moving, thats why it sounds quieter? BTW congrats on your new baby. Must b nice driving a new car. Edited February 10, 2002 by Pisces69 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbobrick Neutral Newbie February 10, 2002 Share February 10, 2002 I have heard that Toyota auto boxes are one of the most reliable one, can tahan up to 10yrs! Mitsu auto boxes the most jiat lat one, 3-5yrs kaput liao. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabiaman 1st Gear February 10, 2002 Share February 10, 2002 Sounded like the Skoda where auto and manual versions cost different and with many specs different as well. The buyer pay more for auto plus other add ons... Sat on my friend's G9 - dunno whether its because he has a noisy tyre or like what you said - poor firewall insulation - just felt that the Corolla does not have the ambience of a new age car. Maybe the auto version is better. Anyway, congrats again, I know how it feels to get the new car and the smell of the new car is easily one of the best scent in the world... besides a new-born baby's feet. Hee.......
