trvs · Postby **trvs** » October 26th, 2009, 5:58 pm

for real!! that would be great. don't stick!!

Oh by the way. I went in for my 20K service today, saw a couple 2010 CY2A's

the base model now has the colored screen in the dash, radio controls on the steering and guess what?! the mother freaking ralliart tail lights. Stupes. The "full spec" also has everything as the base model but some newer crappy 16" wheels.

Anyhows I took a couple pics...

This was early this morning, the car was locked or else I would have taken some interior pics.

The crappy wheels

The steering radio controls. You can kinda see the dash.

And finally the darn ralliart tail lights. stupes.

this is normal...

same thing happened with the Mazda 3 when it was launched initially with fugly salmon colour tail lights..and from a certain series, flipped over to proper black-based version.

i think it may be cheaper to import the ralliart tail lights from USD than upgrade at firm...i also think the black tail lights do bring out the car's image significantly IMHO..

trvs · Postby **trvs** » October 26th, 2009, 11:13 pm

yea for real. DM would never stock these tail lights so soon.

at apprx 300-380 usd its worth it.

Liking what I reading in here ppl

Our next car most likely gonna be a CY2A loaded

that will be when they start coming RORO from japan though

Upgrade from fiancee's CS3A when the time comes

Hey guys...did not get to scan the catalog last night; will try to do it tonite. Will walk across the road and take some interior pics of the new model.

trvs · Postby **trvs** » October 27th, 2009, 7:58 am

Venum, you would not get it branded as a Lancer.

Its a Galant Fortis. Once them roro dealers see "Galant" they gona buss price.
I've seen a couple 07's and 08's in auctions going for like 10-15KUSD

Check this auction site from japan:

http://www.japaneseusedcars.com/auction/auctions.htm

Stock# HLK39081

it is teh most expensive one listed @ 890,000 Yen, doing only 7,000km

according to CoinMill.com - The Currency Converter (http://coinmill.com)

it works out to a auction\purchase price of TT$62,099.91

what allyuh think the landed (purchase + shipping + applicable duties) price would be and then the licensed price (landed price + MVT and applicable taxes) :?:

trvs · Postby **trvs** » October 28th, 2009, 11:50 am

Venum,

If it s the 1.5L approx - $97,750.00

If it s the 2.0 L approx - $120,794.56

^^^ I think so too as I haven't seen any CY2A on the Japanese auction sites

only CY4A models

190K????? And that dont even have the flare kit, plus i have a feeling that they probably tamper with the mileage.

That's possibly correct. You will however get 1.5 in Singapore for sure.

... the RORO dealers will compare the car to its current market price and knock off a few thousand.

190K lolz...

ok guys
i went in for my 100K service yest CY2
i took in my own Tranny fluid @ 69.00 per quart (sourced at fereral services on Cipero St San do) - i still have to sompare it to my last tranny fluid change bill at DM to see if it was cheaper to buy outside
i also got my oil there i switched to full synthetic (castrol Synthec 5w 50
both fluids came up to $700.00

then i requested they change the belt (engine has one belt only - chain drive engine)
realigned etc, used thier oil filter $90.00
air - i have a k & n so they left that alone

first thing
my belt still making noise and to me it not looking new, the guy insist that they changed it how am i to know?

they also put in the bill that they secured the left side of the front bumper which is now shaky and they didnt which i know for a fact as i can see there clearly

next thing , i told them to check the disk pad as i found it was low and never changed since - DM have it for 1500 :shock:

i getting on at SAS for 300 (titanium brand i think), what i want ot know is since i got 100K from the last set of brake pads should i go back with the one DM supplying? or will the one at the parts place last just as long?
also DM refused to give me the part number for the disk pad so i not 100% sure if i will be buying the correctt thing, most parts places req that i walk with a old one as a pattern, but i have mine on the car still, still trying to see if a link could get the the part number from DM, any thoughts?
or anybody already changed thiers? and have the old one or info?
thanks
