Great review. Let hope the test drive unit comes, then the local mag/paper can do a review on the Jap-made Jazz too. 8)

sis.

promo price is always = high loan amount = longest loan period = highest interest rate.

And the promo price sometimes have rebates. The rebates is to use to help pay outstanding loans for the old car.

How do they give the rebates? outright discount or until you sign the paper (with the original price) then they give you back the rebates?

Is it true that the higher loan amt and term, the more freeebies that SE can give? If no loan means they wont give you anything extra? i am wondering if it is worth borrowing more and longer just to get the FREE things?

I will use one sentence

"It is always not worth to borrow money with interest"

Guess where the SE give you freebies? Your money
Guess where the rebate comes from? Your money

So you are basically paying more to the bank to give yourself more 'freebies' when in actual fact is not free. Why? Because you paid for it!

Where did you get the $1.2 difference? I only see $500 difference.

SE told me the difference is the audio.
