Helo zth...

Just wanna ask sumthing simple here.

May I know how many year model are there for Toyota Altis?
Is it just only one?

Rock Lee, the photo in the link shall be the first model.

the facelift have a different crystal tail lamp.
however, i can't tell when Altis start selling in Malaysia (definately the year you saw Brad Pit drive like Pro in his Altis with Ricky Martin's "shake your bon bon" at the background). hmmm 1 year before Britney show her face in the VIOS?

Rock Lee, guess you can differentiate from the 2 photos (the tail lamp)
Altis first version in Malaysia

Facelift photo you can find in UMW website

PS: The facelit might have launch at 2004.

yes, toyota facelift is kind of boring lately. VIOS for example.

better don't expect too much from sales person, at the end of the day, they are just ... sales person, not historian. We may have better knowledge on Toyota past model compare with them.

hey guys...

seriously thanks for all yur feedbacks.

really really appreciate it...

So it seems both the old and new altis have the same chassis. The only difference is the tail lamp. How clever of them. lolzzz.
