Yup RM 83k OTR. But if you are a hardcore bargain person, you can ask the
salesman to lower the price.

Updates Updates....

Driven the car for 1 day already. These are my feedback :-

NVH
- Acceptable, of course better than many brands out there, eg MyVi, Getz, etc

Tyre noise
- Acceptable. There was some tyre noice which can be heard but I guess
that's because the car has been left in the stockyard for 2 years already.
So, can live with it!

Fuel consumption
- Don't know yet but my guess it should be about RM 0.15 / km.

Overall
- Very satisfied with the car.

Love especially when you use the remote to electronically close your side
mirrors!

My FC so far with 2 fill-up with Shell V-Power gives me about 13km/l or
RM$0.16/km or 7.7l/km.

I estimate the FC should go down more as the engine gets "looser" and I
drive more sedately.

Hi Jack,

I've also changed my Colt's horn as the original horn is pretty.... no
words to describe!

Anyway, they had to take the whole bumper out just to fix the horn! But
they also did a fantastic job in putting back the bumper!

Well, now my horn is loud and nice! :)

Driving straight at a medium speed seems ok with me. The car's alignment
seems 100% or 99% perfect!

I hope to see more of this colt on the road. Its a bargain compare to
earlier on when it was like 115K last year. Now w 5yrs warranty and 80K!
Give a good fight to the city/Jazz/Vios/Aveo etc.

I was looking at this car and then I ended up withs its euro cousing ie
Smart 4/4. Pricely slightly cheaper than Colt for 2005 model though.
Still have warranty. I want to see one day on both car bottom to see the
component similarity.

Drmaze,

2nd hand dealers? Which car you refering at, you mean the Colt or the
Smart 4? The Optra/Chevrolet, though is nicely position as euro design, I
wonder how the support quality like from DRB?

The Smart4 actually have great discount of 40K from Daimler Chrysler for
the 1.5 and 1.3 version but only for new 2005 stock. Still have factory 2
year warranty and unlimited miles.

More colt on the road is good for Smart4 as it increases the aftermarket
parts supply away from DCB.
