Projek KARS is a project by LS Associates (SEA) Sdn Bhd, a 31-acre area which introduces a convergence concept in car trading here. The project, which costs RM5 million, provides a single place for car dealers, support services, financing and insurance services, in a single location.
Phase one will begin operations in December 2006, with 10,000 sales bays, buyer meets seller bays and 1,200 car parks. Both new cars and second hand car dealers are expected to converge at the center. There will also be stalls for accessories, a hypermarket, JPJ offices and a Puspakom center – everything you need when you purchase a car, whether new or second hand. It would be cool if there were facilities at the seller for buyers who want to buy cars from direct private sellers to jack up the car and check out the undercarriage, perhaps have a team of professionals for hire to check out the chassis for you.
As far as I can tell at a glance, the project seems to be similiar to the Highway Auto City, but Highway Auto City focuses more on new car 3S centers, while Projek KARS also serves the used car market. Projek KARS is expected to be fully operational by April 2007, and LS Associates hopes the depressed market will have recovered by then.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
I think it is basically the same. Except that this KARS Project includes the used car dealers and other facilities like accesories and Puspakom and give them a new name. Is this a private funded project or another scam by certain businessman with political link?
where is the location for the project?
great! one-stop centre for car trading.
….sounds like yb samy vellu should to think about another superhighway route….coz more malaysian will use more motor vehicles……and accidents too…
That's a great idea, at least i think so. It will save would-be-buyers from the hassle normally involved in buying a car. And I think it would be great too if they can have hoists so that buyers can check the undercarriage of the car as well, most of the time we just have to make do by sprawling on the ground and peeking hehe.
No freeloading of ads here.
huh ?
Hey Paul,
Maybe you can consider to open a shop there (At KARS).

It will be one heck of a traffic jam if this project works, and one heck of a dumping ground if it doesn't.
Reminds me of the place in Jakarta, where all this little acc shops were pooled together in a square..exciting price bargaining..and damm congested and unruly area…
