Not many to brag about too.

Although those cars are pint-sized, they are in mint condition till today.

Nope.

I don't dare to take apart my AAs, I scared take apart liao cannot put back.
I went to buy the equivalent Tamiya plastic model and experimented around with that instead.
So now I have a mint AA Skyline GTR34 and a very sad white plastic half finished Skylike GTR34..

I also have a half-finished tamiya Merc SLR. Reason why it's unfinished is because i'm a noob and I didn't know how to spray paint the body. It looked like shit, I know I can use thinner to remove the paint and respray. But suddenly my motivation is gone.

Need some clarifications n enlightenment, hope u folks can help...
i saw the dimensions of the Sunny
n SylphyDimensions (L x W x H) (4495 x 1695 x 1445)mm
(4610 x 1700 x 1505)mm
But i find the sylphy smaller/narrower in terms of appearance, m i rite?! -
cos the sylphy is longer..so it look slimmer and thinner at the width, my matrix is 1740 width...but it look like old vios type of width visually.

IMHO, the replacement for the Sunny is the Latio, not the Sylphy. The Sylphy is there for people who need Teana space but on a budget. And the Sylphy does is job damn well too, such a big body and the 1.5 engine does not feel strained during normal driving. The interior space is undeniably, undeniably huge and the comfort level is way above the Sunny.

It's a pity that the Sunny has aged and the facelifted Sylphy fails to impress me with its price and plain interior.
Sigh....

wor, silphi so good meh? thought it is the bluebird replacement ....which is a corona competitor in the past... -
Originally posted by mh2:

But if u want to compare overall package, then probably the only gripe for that price will be that it's really underspec-ed. In terms of relaxed driving and interior space, really half a class above the rest (1.5 - 1.6 category). But for that kind of car and price, you'd expect things like auto headlight/auto wiper/side mirror indicator/electric seats/climate control/auto dimming rear view mirror, etc etc, of which you can find on certain MIK cars at cheaper prices..
But I guess you can't have the best of all worlds. Cant make the Sylphy too good also, otherwise no one will buy Teana. I think while the Sylphy does its job good enough, the driver is always constantly reminded (by the lack of equipment) that it's definitely not a Teana.

Total car sales for the month of August is an all-time low man.
Is the Golf too hot a hatch to handle this time?
Sales are certainly burning up the charts for VW.

From what I see, BMW seems to be creeping up a few registrations more than Merc.
But it's not that accurate a data since it counts PIs also.
-
Maybe because the new BMW 318i was launched recently?
Then again, the new E class saloon/coupe was also recently launched too..
