I think that was an 'undercover' or 'double-agent' UMWT sales man,
actually moonlighting as a NAZA salesman as well. Big Smile New car tak boleh
cari makan mah, sell recon can make more lor ! Some more direct to Naza
can get commision also mah ! Tongue

When I bought my Harrier from a Bumiputra 3rd party importer,that guy
offered me to test the entire range of cars on display.Initially I test
drive the imported Honda CRV,not bad,quite close to my taste then Harrier
RX 300.It is a used 1998 unit.Wow totally different.Feel like buying that
unit.Then said testlah the upgraded 2.4 version first.Wahhlauu RM 55k
extra than the used 3.0 unit.But this one is a brand new unit declared
used.Limited edition with semi wood/leather steering wheel.Not loh.Quite
responsive as the RX 300.That said this is a new unit whereas the other
one is an old unit.

Price quoted RM 235k.Negotiable.So after much hagging I settled down with
the 2.4 unit.Before I left the shop,that sales guy said"RAV 4 tak mau test
ke bos,Estima Type G pun you boleh test,semua I kasi you test".I said no
need,after that got hooked with more models die ler.

A friend of mine(from my home town Penang) end up buying that used 3.0
unit.He drove all the way from Penang just to bought that car.First it is
cheaper to get in here in KL.Second more choices and better service from
this particular dealer of mine.Right till today I still maintain a good
contact with that dealer and intended to do so as long as I can.

If you really want to buy expensive cars no need to wear nice nice one.FYI
I only wear apek style clothing when buying my Harrier.Short pants and GMV
stripped shirt and of course sandals.As soon as I walked in to the
showroom,a neatly dressed chapped(mind you he is a Malay).I personally
felt that Malay is not so lansi in comparison with Chinese(strictly
personal opinion).I request for the price for the new CRV.That is when the
whole thing got started.

He told I can test drive every models here."Semua boleh".He informed me
some models were new shipment and new arrivals.Harrier 2.2 and 2.4
upgraded version,Estima Type G,Oddysey,CRV etc.Based on my
observation,that place is kinda packed with vehicles parking not only
within the compound but outside on the road kerb.

No air conditioned showroom,no preety girls SA wearing skimpy dress(unker
kinghamsap sorry hah), no nonsense and the best part is no bull $hit.My
additional accesories(yes no alarm),no crappy 3 year warranty.Just the
car,yes that plain car.

Next month my Harrier will be celebrating its 1st anniversary.Till date
problems, nil.It's about time for a new set of tyre.That's it.No hidden
agenda."Kereta baru but declared terpakai,I bagi tau you siap-siap".To buy
or not to buy,the choice is yours.

As for the tt invitation thank you lah.I'm afraid to go coz there will be
lots of sourgrapes especially those driving Altis and Camry as well as
those Harrier owners wanna be.The other day in that"Harrier vs
Camry"forum,I kena tembak for voicing my opinion regarding Harrier.The
thing is that those tembak me(I presume so lah but correct me if I'm
wrong) are those driving Camry and Altis.I think they all sakit
hatilah.Who knows they will vandalised my car if they happen to come face
to face with me.
