Get it done this week. Heard prices are going to increase

[kmq007]

Planning to get it done tomorrow or day after tomorrow inshallah.

Anyways, they will slap the price increase if GOD forbid it happens as I can't make full payment right now.. and if price increase before next payment then they will charge it any ways

[kmq007]

Indus CEO Jamali Sb & Suzuki CEO hinted the price increase recently... dollar depreciate ho raha hai aur fazool bahanoon say yeh price increase kar rahay hain..

I mean seriously, how come these big companies don't keep inventory for the next few months. Even small companies keep that cushion. Just money making tactics keun kay koi poochnay wala nahin..

Went to Toyota GT 2 times, their work is ok lekin rude staff.
Went to Toyota Capital and didnt like them either
Went to Toyota Islamabad and same as Rawal koi extra achay nai

All were more or less the same so kept buying from Rawal from the start.

Yes Blue resale would be less, paint matching achi nai hoti is liye people dont prefer it, black is too hard to maintain, light colors mein Yaris looks weird with so much black plastic in front.
My two cents is Silver or Grey. I already have a silver corolla so went for grey and everyone who has seen it says the color is superb

Yaris price increase is probably around the corner, its on the sameprice for more than 7 months and these auto companies dont have a habbit of keeping the price stable for this long, they have so many fake reasons for increasing price.
However, last time (in oct2020) Indus did not charge the price increase to those customers who even had partial payments.

[adnan.shaukat]

check the price of USD in last 7 months and here is no reason of price increase currently

Price can be increase ONLY if either USD increase at least 5% (not likely) or more Taxes in 2021-2022 budget or if there is any Facelift

[izeeshanali1]

Bro aisay koi standards nhi hain hmari auto market mein k dollar ki ye percentage hogi to ye hoga. Dollar came all the way down to 152 from 168 few months ago but except United no one decreased the prices.
Similarly, they don't need any concrete reason for price increase. Global chip crisis, ports congestion, covid etc, there are many reasons they can hide behind

[adnan.shaukat]

I am not saying that Prices will decrease ... companies in pakistan are not used to do this because it causes (loss in Profit margin of company+dealers+investors).

There is no fixed formula (5%) but dollar has already depreceated in last few months and company is taking
advantage of it (import parts prices reduce).

However its Pakistan any thing is possible, but i still suggest to avoid rumours/speculation unless there is some solid hint from company

[kmq007]

Anyone. How do you disable smart entry permanently to avoid relay theft. And if you do that is there an actual key slot in Atix X variant which you can use to enter the car and start it as any other car using ignition key instead of push start.

Apologies for being so paranoid but key cloning/ relay theft is on the rise in Pakistan.

[zubair.ah]

Thank you - Rawal it is then.

My heart is also on Grey - it looks really good, I am really inclining towards it.

[izeeshanali1]

Driver door of ATIV X can br opened with the physical key. However, you can only start the engine with the push button.
The smart entry can be temporarily disabled only.
After getting out of the car, you have to long press the lock button on remote and then after couple of seconds press the unlock button once. This way the smart entry button will stop working.
To re-enable the smart entry, you have to unlock the car by remote.

[Heart_Break_Kid]

I think rubbing compound should fix this. its White color car whose paint is stuck on your bumper.

no need to go for repaint

[umairzafar]

if you see the past price increase by IMC they add new feature along the price increase. You never know they might add cruise control if they are planning to increase the price

[eemmads514352]

Or a back arm rest.....

But yes cruise control is the only thing left which City is giving and Yaris isnt.

[umairzafar]

I feel low beam of yaris is not very effective specially on motorway and i had to use high beam and i feel so awkward to drive behind a car with high beam. Should i visit 3S and ask them to adjust direction?

[eemmads514352]

Get it checked. I had the same issue with mine in the start. Got it fixed on the first 1000km check up.

My windscreen washer throws liquid on the roof instead of the screen. Need to get that fixed as well.

[zubair.ah]

There is alot of anti-yaris sentiment in the City 6th Gen thread like teen dabba quality, unstable at 120km/h etc. I assume this is coming from Honda fanboys and most haven't driven a Yaris.

Owners of Yaris - please share your thoughts on any issues with the car so new buyers like us know well what we are getting. Thank you!

[danishmmh]

Bhai Jan you will not have the need to drive above 120 for less than 2% of your ownership. The car is fine till 140 above that I will not recommend the trakko bg and the raised suspension. If you are travelling with 4/5 people on board then 140 is also good. but please avoid over speeding. there is a reason for 120 km/hr speed limit.

Secondly the car is available at dealership to inspect and test drive. Do it form your own opinion.

See civic/corolla/yaris/city/alsvin all the cars and be the judge.

All modern cars are made from light material (collapsible) outershell with rigid passenger compartment for safety and optimizing fuel usage. Those saying yaris is crap please see the rusting issues in city owner thread.

Your money, you should decide and buy the vehicle that you want.

This has been answered above a lot of times by different people. But I will share my experience and decision of moving away from Honda City. I've had 3 Honda City's include 1.5 and 1.3 (all MT) and I have also driven a friend's 1.5 AT extensively.

Before I test drove Yaris (it was 1.3 GLi CVT) I had the same understanding that it would be highly unstable above 120/140 because of the raised height and softer suspension. When I test drove the car (it was a long drive of about 1200km) on M2, Lahore/Multan GT Road, within City (Lahore and Islamabad).

The car is not at all unstable - I can't comment on the stock tyres because the car I drove was with Continental Tyres (185/65) and after market alloys. But it was extremely smooth. On M2, the car was very stable, even at the speed of 120/130 the cabin noise insulation is just stunning. The low end torque feels really good in city driving conditions and even on GT Road. The suspension handles our roads very well. Braking is good, I had to apply emergency brakes a couple of times due to truck drivers changing lanes abruptly. The manual shifting option is a really good feature as well. 1.3 isn't underpowered either. Fuel average is pretty amazing as well especially on long routes. Overall it was a good experience. Much comfortable ride compared to City.

However, like every other car it has its pros and cons. I love Manual transmissions, so I didn't like the rubber band effect of CVT. Position of Arm Rest isn't good. Softer Suspension has its pros and cons but atleast I didn't had to worry about speedbreakers hitting the car. Handles bumps, potholes pretty good in comparison. Seats are very comfortable compared to City but I do feel like seat hight adjustment should have been there, would make the driving experience a lot better. Reving the engine on higher rpms doesn't feel as good as it did on City.

Bottom line, if you want a car to take you from point A to point B comfortably and peacefully Yaris is the way to go. If you like to rev the car and like to drive fast around the corners City is the way to go.

And people commenting about it's build quality - it is better than the current Honda City. Let's see what Honda comes up with in the 6th Gen.

Edit: based on this experience I decided to go with Yaris. Expecting it to delivered next month. I went with 1.5 CVT because even though I didn't like the rubber band effect much but I needed an auto transmission
