Hi Everyone, I live in Singapore. I've just booked a Japanese domestic model Prius type G with side/curtain airbags & photo-catalytic side mirrors. I thought of booking a 10th Anniversary Edition but decided the discharge headlights, HDD navigation, integrated bluetooth & intelligent parking camera wasn't worth the additional US$2,100+. Cars here get taxed about 2 times the import value. Anyone out there driving JDM Prius? I'm getting mine only in Jun as Toyota Japan has a queue.
Re: Just Booked a JDM Prisu G Hi chsim, welcome to PriusChat! I guess all the Japanese drivers have JDM Prius...:lol: Read lots here and you'll be an expert by the time you get your car.
Re: Just Booked a JDM Prisu G Hello, welcome and congrats! The 10th Ann. Edition is based on the S model isn't it? so you'll be losing some features too. Plus the HDD nav will be in Japanese won't it? Will a singapore disc work? I think a few S'poreans have JDM imports (esp. the older ones) and since Borneo Motors have some waiting list or high price (can't remember what that person mentioned)
Re: Just Booked a JDM Prisu G It's the blue-tinted mirrors (usually found on the German cars) that reduces glare
Re: Just Booked a JDM Prisu G Hi chsim, leebsq is driving a JDM Prius.:clap2: I'm glad you finally made the choice, welcome to the Prius family!:welcome: So, did you book through PI or self-import?
Re: Just Booked a JDM Prisu G Good to hear from you all. I got my G model from a parallel importer Ricardo as the local distributor refuses to bring in more than the basic S model. Look forward to learning from you all.
