Do you wanna swap suspension? I got fully s=adjustable coil overs. I love em, but seeing car is for Wife and 9month old baby, not really suited.

Cheers! hope to see your ride around.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm not planning to modify this car.

I'm toying with the idea of importing one my self but I'm worried about parts. What are your plans for servicing this beast?

For servicing probably do it myself and most engine parts you can source them as it has same engine as the Gt-Four celica we got over here.

Very nice car and my friend just bought one too, same colour with sunroof!I think yours is N edition?

Yep mine is the N edition. u can tell if they have the red front strut bar and recaro seats.

Nice car!

Is that the factory headunit which offers the tv function? And does the new tv tuner give you digital tv or just analog?

The tuner just gives me digital tv. The car came with the tv as standard.

Nice car dude! First saw one when in KL (before they were eligible for import here). Test drove a few locally & noticed they really drive a lot better with a nice free flowing exhaust. Still considering buying one actually. A black one would match my black MR2 turbo in the garage :) lol

Hows yours been going after a good amount of time on the road? Any maintenance issues/dramas? Only gripe I had was the 4speed transmission, 1st gear felt too long.

So far so good! Its a perfect daily car, good boot space and some decent power when needed. Havent got any issues with it, besides the suspension as mine started knocking (an excuse for me to get coilovers.. hehe!) As most import jap cars, it needs a major service i.e. air filter, brake pads, filter, oil, fluids, sparkies...etc

4 speed is ok i guess, wish it was 5-6speed.. but yeah i know what you mean.
