Why am I always the last to know? Toyota Prius is already available in Malaysia! I've been hearing this news for months but haven't seen it yet. It was my sis who informed me today. Thanks, sis! Then I surf
Toyota Malaysia official website, and true enough, it's here! In Malaysia! I'm so excited!
I've been admiring this car since my campus years (circa 2002, I think) when it was first launched. During that time, hybrid cars was just starting to become the
in thing in the US, Europe and Japan. Interested Malaysian like myself could only drool on pictures from the internet.
Now, more than five years later, it's here. They come in five colours, and for the first time in my life, I like red! Or is it just the illustration?

But
blue looks awesome too, and
gray is mean, as always.
But its whopping RM175K price made me gulp. I hope the government can do something to encourage people to drive a hybrid. I heard in western countries, people who drive hybrid will get some tax relief. Is that true?
So anyone rich and kind enough to buy this for me?
