Newbie getting a latio...

[gh05tss]

My advise also is to keep with the original stock condition, dont hv to rush to upgrade or change anything yet.. "feel" the car 1st (drives for few mths at least), then when u change, u know the difference.. of cos stock condition not tt bad la, :) dont get poison easily :) .. learn the basic knowledges fr our forum here.. enjoy ur ride..

One more thing to add, since u are driving a Premium - Enjoy the CVT...it smooth...

buy curtains  Very impt u know  ..

but i myself dont have. 

Buy curtain? Hanky panky inside Latio? Better don't, our suspension so soft, slight movement the car will rock.

Do not spend on stuff you do not know much yet, take your time to study well first. But as for an advise, change the tyre will be more then enuff. There will be more to change in future slowly, need not to rush it.

Apart from the rest had said, take ur times to install those if you think you need it.

the only thing i did was to... buy soft toys.. and up my tyre pressure only.


Think i pumped too much..Lol til now never do anything. But its okay. I'm a slow driver, no problem de.

Stock is good enough for me. 4AT here

Ahem .... backseat accident?

I find the stock Toyo tyres fit their purpose. There is no need to change them, unless you intend to drive like Michael Schumacher.

I think it is better to save up the $2000 your dad gave you for a rainy day.

Look for erev aka Edward. Strut bars really do improved handling.

Initially I am weary of fixing up strut bar because of the additional weight incurred, but to my surprise, it actuall improved my FC. Maybe more confident in cornering I assume.  

Agree with you bro...installed my front strut bar from Erev Edward, ride is more stable...now still thinking if should install anti-roll & lower strut....

Agree with you too bro...that's what I did for my 1st year upon getting my ride too...after learning more abt Latio's & discussing from the forum, then slowly change stuff that are relevant & necessary...

Hi Enfernoe, welcome too TLC! Personally think stock for our ride is more than enough to cover daily usage...enjoy the quiet & comfy ride!

Hi pple, newbie here...

My dad got a Latio premium for me to travel to sch since I live very far away frm it.

Apparently, he got a test drive unit tt already clocked mileage of 1500+ but got a discount of $3K + $1K (YOM 2007 stock) (Total price is 56k).
Got free tuff-coat (dunno what is tt) & body kit.
Alreadying collecting the car this coming week but it's my first car so I cant help but ask: Is it a good deal?

Anyway, he gave me a budget 2k to "upgrade" anything "bad" about the latio tt I read in the forums. I really know nuts about cars and after reading ard the forums, abit blur liao. I'll but changing the tires bt can any1 can advise what else will be "good to change"?

* Just got my license 6mths ago and really no nuts abt cars...paiseh if the questions sound brainless....

So with all the advice, what have you done after almost 1 month?

You can install the ARB, the lower body strut not much impact as per reviews from fellow drivers. I also feel the same.
