If the pics are the models we'll be getting, means that the Tucson will be the North American variant, with chrome around the Hexagon grill, and no chrome around the foglights. (The EU version is the opposite.) I like the US version better, more sexy, as in Sexy Utility Vehicle (SUV)

Honda recalls Civics and Accords over airbag issue

Honda expands airbag recall to include 820,000 vehicles. sos

Wtfail is happening with the Japanese? Toyota with accelerator and brake problems, Honda with airbag and power window problem?!?! (Hey proton, you have a competitor for the Most Problematic Window awards this year!)

Next thing we're gonna hear, Nissan has ABS problem, Mazda has too much zoom-zoom problem, etc etc?

Are these symptoms of the speed which they're launching new products/technology, making less time for testing? Are we gonna see Accords and Camry joining the Beemers stuck at the roadside? Discuss.

Where to buy Asics trainers in KL

T0|\|`/ — Tue, 30 Jan 2007 12:00:36 +0800

Hi people, I'm looking to get myself a 2110 or 2120 at a reasonable price.

I was at Studio R @ KLCC yesterday, and their prices for the entire Asics line were based on fantasy.

As a comparison, Kayano13's are USD135 at Zappos.com, so is the New Balance 1222.

But, in Fantasy Island, Kayano13 is at RM600, which is about USD170, while the NB 1222 is RM370 (USD105)! In fact, all their freakin Asics were more than > RM300. Unbelievable. Even the predecessor models were the same price as the successors.

Are there any shops in KL/PJ that has an Asics price list that is based more on reality? I wouldn't mind paying the normal price for a 2110 at say, RM320, but jack it up an extra RM200? Forget it, find another sucker, RSH.
