Finally I've booked my Altezza 2 days ago. it's a 00/04 car,
Now waiting for the paperwork to be done. (ETA within next week)

Before the big day come, i got some questions here,
hope experienced altezza owners here can help.

1. the ODO reading was 73529km when i viewed the car,

For 00/04 car, is it a norm to have such low mileage ? after all it's being driven on m'sia
road for 5 yrs already (2004->2009). Or the ODO can be hacked to reset
the reading to cheat that is a low mileage car ? (but what the heck... i just curious only.)


2. do u guys perform change of engine oil,tranny oil,lsd oil, etc when u girst got ur altezza... ??
I mean major service of oil replacement. IF yes, is it change the above oil i mentioned ?

Mike..when I bought my car..it was only 23K km...and for the next year I only clocked another 20K...so Yes...it is possible mileage. But more importantly..the condition of the engine and the engine bay will tell you if the odometer is for real or not.

bro, here's proof that you can reset/change the mileage...http://translate.google.co.jp/translate?prev=hp&hl=ja&js=n&u=http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/119743666&hl=ja&ie=UTF-8&sl=ja&tl=en
 
Will update here regarding the day to TRIAL as soon as i got the call from the car dealer.
then can ask Trial to inspect the car for me...see see if maybe got any extra hidden goodies
or not (b'cos the car dealer told me is stock, and the car dealer also called it alteeeeza... so i got no confident in the car dealer knowledge in the car/altezza)

by the way, thanks to the POISON by most of u guys here !!!... :)
