How much does it cost for a normal service at MI? Do you know how much the current cost for the PPP is?

I love white Scooby's. I see a lot of white ones everytime I go down to SG. There are so many Rexes there. Just need to stand beside the street for 5 minutes and you will see at least one passing by.

It's darn nice of your dad to get you the STi. As for me, I'm relying on 3 people to get the car. Me, myself, and I. hahaha....

Still looking bro..... have to really find the right one at the right price
my money is really hard earned money u know....all blood, sweat and tears money. What to do..... my daddy cant afford to buy me one. :_: heheh....just joking ok..dont flame me for this
Viewed one used WRX version 7 previously bought from MI. Still Negotiating the price. Dont think I will be getting those WRXs from S.G though.
Anyway...hope to get one soon so that I can join the club.
Oh yeah...how many of u guys are going to the Subaru Gathering this Sunday...if im not mistaken at Naza Showroom in PeeJay?

crazievitek,

Yo bro, damn sorry tht i cant recall exactly how much it cost for a normal service @ MI, but as far as i know their pricing r very reasonable!!! As for PPP, me oso not sure...They mentioned to me once, but i forgot!!! Hehehe... But i do know tht 1 of de MI manager has got this PPP thongy install into his Ver7 come Ver8!!! And de car is always there @ MI, where normally they wil allow u to hv a look too... :_: U can actaully ask de staffs there abt de above Qs when u r heading there for a test drive!!! They r very frenly guys...

Hahaha... As for de Scooby, v bought it actually bcos of my dad lar... Am driving an Evo IX myself now... Then my bozz test drove it n said:' Mmm... I gotta get myself 1 of this car..." Then i told him, if v r to buy another Evo, y not v try on a Scooby... Tht's how v come to Scooby lor... But after buying it, no complaint!!!

Dun ask me what's de different btw Evo IX n de STi Ver8... Hahaha... Been asked by many frens many times liao... :regular_smile: What I can say is both r superb cars!!! Handle well, great pace, well balance, corner KENG!!! Hehehe...

TOMEI-R,

Yo bro, u r right!!! Do not rush into decision... Better tht u get a trouble free car slowly so tht u can enjoy ur ride for de rest of de next few yrs... As everyone know abt de APs thingy lar... Custom ppl r always hard to deal with!!! Happy hunting n hope tht u can get 1 soon too!!!

Storm,
you know you're living the life that I can only envision in my wet dreams? Damn man, you have the Evo 9 and STi 8 at your disposal anytime. You are one lucky dawg!

Can't wait to drop by MI when my gf returns to M'sia. I wonder if they are open during CNY week...

So after driving the Evo and the STi, which one do you like to drive more?

crazievitek,

Scooby wil b easier to drive n very comfortable car... As for de Evo, it more racing car like... Stiffer suspension, tighter seats n very responsive (my opinion)!!! But after modding up de Scooby, it bcom a better car to drive... And am in de midst of upgrading de IX... Bought few parts n stil looking for something else, wil instal it all 1 shot...Actually de IX for me mostly wkend car... During working, am driving Mitsu Storm!!!

Not sure when MI wil b open during de CNY... Give them a call n check out!

Anyway, Happy CNY to u n ur family too!!! :_:

Storm,

went to check out the ver 9 STi during the weekend. The car looks really good in real life. I have to admit that I hated the look when I first saw it in magazines. But now, I'm converted already. It's really very nice! Saw an STi Forrester as well with crazy 18" STi rims. Nice nice....

haven't called MI yet, but heard that they will be closed for a few days next week. Hope they are opened end of next week then I can drop by.

One more week to CNY! Hahah... ang pau mari mari... heheh.... Happy CNY to you too (althought still early)!

Saw 2 units of Merc SLR!!! Walan eh... this car selling like hot cakes oversea... doesnt really expected to see 1 in Msia... Both r left hand drive... Heard r asking for more than RM 2mil ler!!! :shocked: Besides, saw a Pagani Zonda too... Wah seh man... how come these days Naza can get so many rare super cars ler??? Knowing tht this Zonda actually belong to 1 of de 'Big Big shot's son... Dun play play... Hahaha...

hotspeed, Hey fren, Errr.... really not sure whether do MI sell Ver7 or not... But u can always go to Stars paper or MotorTrader to look for 1, as de pricing for Ver7 is quite reasonable for some cars... Gotta do some research urself b4 buying lar... Especially go test drive n check on de car condition n yr of manufactured!!! Cheers!!!

Storm,
Happy CNY man... wah, you took 2 weeks off for the CNY break? Sadly, I've not been able to make it to MI yet. Was too busy visiting friends last week (what to do, got to collect more ang pau to use for my WRX downpayment... hahaha... ). Will try to go there in 2 weeks' time. How's the mod of your Evo9 going? Actually what mods are you doing to it?

     

TOMEI-R

Bros.....Saw in the papers .....The Star Classifieds btw....theres a good offer for those looking for A Version 7 STI......Opening Price RM15xk.......very good buy for a version 7 year 2000 UNREGISTERED...anyone checked it out yet?

sti diff from wrx is ain't only the 280hp. a lot of things been upgraded be it the interior to the exterior or even the undercarriage and the powerplant under the hood.

m driving a v7 sti too. is easy to change the outlook to v8 with a cost of around rm10k+

wont regret to pick a sti. ya... 280hp wont make any diff during the massive jam but it will really punches if u r on fast mode when freeway...

havnt driven a wrx b4 but things for sure power and handling sti is rather better..

anyway is a good choice be it wrx or sti is much solid than an evo's... my partner is driving an evo7...just my experience:angel_smile:

I totally agree with u. I've driven both the STI and WRX before. In terms of performance in power and handling...it sort of feels totally like a Souped Up Version and a Standard version. I mean its totally worth paying the extra rm30 to 40 k for The STI version if u can afford it.
The STI even has a Built in Shift Light On the Meter. The STI even comes with a Defi/STI Boost Meter with Defi Controllers Standard with the Car. Correct me if Im wrong because the one I drove has One.
The Horsepower difference is also very significant.
But it all depends on budget. To me a WRX is DAMN GOOD ENOUGH already coz of my budget.

Raptorie,
the RM10K conversion to ver8 is for both front and back?
