Picture: Toyota Isis model 2005
The car is black in colour. This is the only unit available from the car dealer that comes with body kit. There's another unit in blue colour but doesn't come with body kit. Since both units are at the same price, the sales person recommended me this unit.
It comes with a 1.8L engine with 130 HP, 1 passenger side power sliding door, central locking system, auto power window for all windows, and body kit. It is a very basic unit. It doesn't even comes with any audio player, but the car dealer will install 1 unit when the car is confirmed sold.
I didn't buy this car from local Toyota because this model is not carried by them. The local Toyota only offers Innova and Avanza in the MPV category. Still, I don't like both the model in terms of design and petrol consumption; both Innova and Avanza don't come with sliding door, thus it's inconvenient to load and unload, and both are not petrol efficient due to the reason that the body size & weight cannot be handled well by the engines. The only advantage of both the model to Isis is the price tag.
Isis is not a model carried under Toyota. It has to be imported from Japan. Companies other than local Toyota are allowed to import vehicles, either new or re-condition, that are not carried by them.

I will explain more in detail about the driving experience that I have with this car in my next post.
