2010 Wishlist: Toyota iQ

I saw it the first time @ British International Motor Show in 2008, in which I happened to snuggle inside to give it a try. Then I saw it again a couple of times in front of my fav restaurant in West London. I can't help but say - I want this Toyota iQ too!

Though I already have one compact SUV back home, I think I wanna get another small car for the sake of going to town. Especially when it's hard to park in the city, and my SUV is kinda longer which is hard to maneuver in those tight slots. So by having a small one - practically half or three-quarter the size of my current SUV - that's a massive help.

I always love Toyota technology. What I love about this Toyota iQ is it look just like Smart Fortwo. But this one can fill 4 people inside (well, Toyota said 3 adults + 1 kid). And it's quite flexible too coz the seat can be put down easily should I have more luggage to fill in. And with a 5-star Euro NCAP rating, the safety is truly ensured by Toyota.

But one problem, I dunno whether it's already available in South East Asia. Another problem: do I have enough money to buy one? Yikes! :)
