Hi,
My wife booked her Swift 3 weeks ago and was promised to deliver before
CNY, however the SA just called telling us the car will not arrive before
CNY, citing current Swift prod has been halted to make way for face lift
version. Was told there will be some price increase but old price for those
who has booked. The SA stated some changes on the front grill, tail light
and add side mirror signal light indicator, but unconfirmed yet. Anybody
heard if this is true?

some said that "among the new features we can see s new 1.2L engine, a CVT gearbox and other
small upgrades" which means swift is much more affordable (+very) for malaysian. well, swift will be
more seen on da road these year forward.,@ d n of the d, swift is not pre-luxury car anymore, but
then, it will b, maybe like kancil or myv..evrywher.!

whatever gave you the impression it was a luxury car to begin with? it's
just a decent runabout.. at reasonable price, it's definitely no Merc A
class or BMW 1 series..Smile

i dint mean it luxur as merc or bm.pre-luxury what i said is just the price at the range where
everybody cant affords to buy (before on these year) or wat i classify as cars 70k-150k (on my own
basis)..on lately, malaysian r growing up their prosperities, 100k' cars s small matter, even cikgu
can buy vios, 4wd cars, city, sentra & so on..f this scenario happening to us as far as we concerned,
buying swift also is like petik jari, with new more affordable price and wat we call complete
knockdown model..this is wat i say swift will be wat myv does in malaysia.everywhere..it just about
perception which s swift s suite for younger people..or others said for 'anak dara'..that s y swift s
rarely appears on our road..f we think again on future, younger does have better job and
purchasing power also s high..no wonder more of them will attracted to swift..i think!!watever it is,
as young people, bachlor,love speed, elegant..i love my swift..

maybe many driving 100k cars due to 9years loan... maybe if they make
20year loan, then many can drive new C class.. Big Smile
