technomarine Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 TEANA TV Commercial :cool: http://www.nissan.com.tw/car/teana/downloa...nload/TEANA.zip Might have to settle for this since I can't afford imports. Teana (domestic assembly) = US30000. Comes with "color rear camera" for backing up. Imports ... About 70-80% more than US pricing. Mazda RX-8 = US52000 Lexus RX330=US70000 Benz SLK200=US78000 Other domestics that's not bad are: Ford Metrostar A+ US24000 Toyota Wish US26500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

technomarine Posted November 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 A color camera for backing up? why does that seem weird to me, doesn't turning your head around work as well and cheaper? hmmm..gadgets and gizmos well, considering the premiums we pay in automobiles (in Asian countries), there better be some neat stuff to compensate. Only bigger cars like Camry, Teana, and some SUVs and minivans have rear-vision function. The older cars have rear-radar systems. Anyway, when backing up, your NAV screen shows 2 meters of the rear. At night, it is still very clear. It is quite useful in Asia as we don't enjoy big parking lots with big parking spaces like the US and Canada. Furthermore, Taiwan has more damn scooters on the road than any country. It's like Key West spring break every day. Speaking of different standard features between NA and Asian version cars, the Toyota Corolla Altis Taiwan version has a mini-computer like the BMW 3 series that tells fuel economy and km left in the tank. Also have wood trim and NAV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoe295 Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 that makes more sense now..forgot about the space premium you have and the number of scooters... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technomarine Posted November 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 This is the non-rush hour load. That Red car deserves a US100 fine for being in the "scooter box." Is driving in Taiwan fun? The answer is NO... but I find everyone is more careful and defensive compared to drivers in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
