    Chances are the audio equipment will be worthless if you want to listen to local radio.

    The conversion will always be suspect. I don't recommend it

    If the conversion will be not done the right way, then expect PRICEY repairs.

    Just get a local fit or a local altis. Much better.

    bought one last oct. 2009. everything is good the dashboard, airbags, steering, aircon except the fuel consumption because they said that its (tipid)16km/L but when i'm using it and check if its true i found out that the FC of fit is 8-9km/L huhuhu how sad...

    better to buy 2nd hand toyota altis or vios...

    ^ Nah. You shouldn't have believed in those kind of theories about its FC. Even an i10 can't reach 16km/l in pure city driving.

    Your FC still depends on how you drive the car and how well do you maintain it. It depends on the fuel too. remember, e-10 blended fuels affects your FC too.

    1.3L engine ? 9km/l is pretty low. You should be getting around 10-11km/l. But then again, it depends.
