The recommended retail price is set by Sgcarmart for
consumers to have a gauge of how much the vehicle will cost
for realistic delivery based on guaranteed COE without
top-ups.
If a dealer quotes a price way below the recommended
retail price, do ensure you know what the catch involved is.
Bought 8 seater petrol 2L version. OPC.
high parf value = min parf is about 14.5k which translate to 8.9k depreciation a year for OPC car and 10.5k deprreciation for normal plate...
no where else can you get such reliablilty (FL mode - pre FL model has Torque Converter issues that affect the CVT) for such a low depreciation.
the car is noisy, no doubt about it as it's big and cheap.
Cannot believe its been 3 months since i owned this....just like to share latest thoughts on the car so far. Have raised stars in most review from my first.
Car has been faultless so far.
Consumption is now averaging 12-13KM per litre....yes this 2.0 Ltr car is really sipping petrol!
Met up with a long time lost friend who recently bought a WISH...he was completely floored. What he paid was similar to what I did but his personal feeling was i got at least 2 times of a car more...just of space, new technology, bell& whistle
He asked me about the support from PI thingy & i told him pretty much the same from anywhere else
Car's platform/engine is a RAV4, (Borneo is selling), Toyota harrier (PIs are selling) spares are't an issue given you usually change engine oil ATF spark plugs etc which are easily available locally, when you hit 5 years or 150Km there about, you can easily order from Toyota stockist the parts needed..like suspension or engine mounting etc...if there aren't any locally
Recently upgraded my Isis to the 2014 Noah. Difference is day & night.The car's comfort level is far superior than my previous ride, it's a 2014 model & has all bell's & whistles. using the relatively new Valvematic engine http://paultan.org/2007/06/13/toyota-reveals-valvematic-technology/
I am getting 12 KM to 1 litre..engine is quiet,,unlike my previous ride...it's super CVT & really dun feel or hear gears doing their magic.
A lot of new tech in the Car.
1. Start Stop engine,
2. Centre electronic console to inform you what fuel efficiency car is doing, control aircon, control idling.
3. Car has rear air con with temp control 3. Space is HUGE & room...you just feel comfort
4. Excellent view from the cockpit...my old Isis had a terrible view due to a-pillars...no more near misses for this car...i can see much more clearly
5. Plenty plenty of of secret compartment, drink compartments & floor room...yes leave bags, laptop bags on the floor & still feel comfort
6. LED!!
7. Touch open doors
8. Remote controlled left & right door opening!
9.Keyless ignition
10. My wife feel confident driving this despite its huge appearance
I could go on ...the car has blown me away!
Coming from an Isis 1.8..this feels like a huge upgrade...i expect the same Toyota reliability & am pleased to know that the engine is same one they are using in the Rav 4, Harrier 2014 Grand, & couple of others...spares not too much an issue.
I really enjoy the plush suspension & was surprised to hear that ,my colleague who has a 6 year old Noah...said her rise comfort similar to my car...so i look forward to this car aging with grace!
its great value for money...i compared against Estima, Alphard/vellfire
Bang for buck..i bought this car when COE was high BUT i think comparing with Estima...2.4 litre old engine, last year revamp ..& $20K more...i decided to give it a miss...the Alphards were out of budget & thanks fully so...looking at the design...betll's & whistle i get from the Noah..i feel satisfied...at the luxury i get with Noah at the price i pay..of course is $$ not an issue...
The choice between Estima was fairly easy as the new Noah is using valvematc engine, plenty of bells whistle etc & cost fairly less
