I was quoted 119k but need to pay extra fro Reg 1800 and road tax/ins. Considering that this car came into Msia in 2004, will the condition still be good or any rust inside even if 0 mileage? Also the warranty is only 3 months. I really like the 3+3 seating. Any thoughts? Hi, I’m also considering the Edix 2.0. I was quoted 119k but need to pay extra fro Reg 1800 and road tax/ins.

It is ideal in size ( if there is such a thing ). Spacious with a sporty SUV look without being too tall or too long. Have been asking Honda Malaysia when they will bring it in years ago but they say they want to gauge how it performs in the grey market. Now that we have the BMW 5 GT and that Honda tall fastback coming in trend, it looks like the Edix came too soon for its time. Pity they have decided to stop it because now is its time.
