Quantum 5th Gear February 11, 2006 Share February 11, 2006 (edited) No matter how to change, IMO nissan always emphasize on showy and luxurious, but less effort on improve fuel efficiency and engine performance , they should learn Toyota and Honda ,otherwise they will lose more market Edited February 11, 2006 by Quantum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vit4wd 1st Gear February 11, 2006 Share February 11, 2006 No matter how to change, IMO nissan always emphasize on showy and luxurious, but less effort on improve fuel efficiency and engine performance , they should learn Toyota and Honda ,otherwise they will lose more market Camry 2.0 is even more sluggish than Cedfiro 2.0. Camry is assembled in Thailand yet its selling price uis eth same at the Japan made and assembled Cefiro. Simple common sense tells you the Cefiro is a better buy. Thoee good old days of your trust worthy Toyotas are gone. Look at the built of the Vios and Altis and you will know. There is a difference between actual good quality and perception of good quality. Many perceive Toyota to be good value and trustworthy. This is what they believe, but whether Toyota can live it up to the buyer's perception is another issue altogether.

Garlic 1st Gear February 11, 2006 Author Share February 11, 2006 Agree. Even the rims, aircon and leather of the Cefiro is fitted in Japan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fcw75 Hypersonic February 11, 2006 Share February 11, 2006 The 3.5L one is a real beauty. I saw the reviews in the papers, it's feature packed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black320 1st Gear February 11, 2006 Share February 11, 2006 Think Nissan has indeed improve in design and looks Look at Fairlady... now does Honda and Toy has a model to match?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GTR has to be the most legendary japanese sports car both on and off the track. The only car that can rival the GTR would have to be the FD rx7, and hon and toy have nothing to match. Closest would be the s2000 and supra, but although both good, netiher comes close to the legends that are the GTR and RX7...

Caaa Clutched February 11, 2006 Share February 11, 2006 Frankly, I always like the exterior design of this Cefiro but there again, I very much dislike the interior.....particularly the wood colour not my cup of tea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vit4wd 1st Gear February 11, 2006 Share February 11, 2006 (edited) Agree. Even the rims, aircon and leather of the Cefiro is fitted in Japan. This translates to higher OMV for the Cefiro. Borneo Mtrs is shooting themselves in the own foot by raising prices and loosing thath competitive edge. Altis, Vios and even Camry are bread and butter cars catering to the mass, and has different marketing niche, unlike Mercedes, BMW or Lexus that carries snob appeal, and attracts the higher end of the market who are not as price sensitive.

On par with other 1.6l cars like Lancer using SOHC engine with no VVTI frills. And Altis costs S$10K more than Lancer. Even if Lancer drinks more, this savings in purchase price covers up for it. Gone are the days of the G9 Corolla with 15km//l mileage. Edited February 11, 2006 by Vit4wd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkness Neutral Newbie February 11, 2006 Share February 11, 2006 Borneo Mtrs is shooting themselves in the own foot by raising prices and loosing thath competitive edge. Dude...with the amount of ppl flocking down to buy toyotas (great demand) the dealer will definately capitalise on it. Its only when demand drops will the price drop...which i don't think will be the case at least in the near future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garlic 1st Gear February 11, 2006 Author Share February 11, 2006 Yep, the new Cefiro has dual exhaust. The new design is exposed while the old one was concealed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oiuy Neutral Newbie February 11, 2006 Share February 11, 2006 i wouldnt consider their 2.3l v6 with 173hp and 225nm weak as compared to its rivals from honda and toyota that uses a 2.4l inline 4s that are weaker. FC has dramatically improved over the 20g as well. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
