[QUOTE="Wayne_92, post: 1064733844, member: 177592"] Hi to all altezza sifus and members :hello:, I'm planning to join the big boys of the toyota family with an Auto one (RS200) around 30k. Though im earning around 3k myr with no obligations. So, planning to get it by selling off my Vios (Gen 1) G spec and personal loan top-up. From my understanding of the altezza bible from sifu AE111GT, the maintenance are almost same compared to my Vios (oil filter, gearbox oil, iridium plugs, etc.). Except, it needs 5 Litre Full-syn engine oil change and timing belt change. While my oil change are done in Dtox with 4 litre and timing chain. Also, I always budget my petrol RM 100 a week and travel 50km (Two-way travel) a day to work. So, if the maintenance are around the same, i was thinking of upgrading to this lovely car :driver:... Except i noticed Tezza has a 60 litre fuel tank clocking 400 - 500km, while my Vios clocks 400km+ (45 Litre). Secondly, [U]Wear and tear[/U] parts such as the Suspension set-up (D. Wishbones), Absorbers, Bushing, are 500% more costly compared to vios. Just an opinion from you all: 1) Do these [U]Wear and tear[/U] parts of this car spoil VERY often?? like say 1 to 2 years gone case? 2) Any more things too look out when owning a Tezza (RWD) as compared with a vios (FWD)? 3) Rear differential oil change expensive? 4) G2 and G4 got alot difference in terms of performance? 5) Is it reasonable to get this car based on my situation? Sorry if its a long post and alot questions. but i've been desiring to get one since i saw one in Puchong (TRD bodykit). I hope any sifu or advisers can give me a good opinion.. I'm looking for a fun daily and reliable ride. Thanks all. :adore: P.S. Newbie here and first time posting in a forum. Sorry if i violate any thread rules. PM me if i do :confused: [/QUOTE]
