Weekend, 23 May - As you pause and put your legs up for the weekend (yeah right, while you check your email and receive calls from your boss, that is), Condemn Nation brings to you our weekly column, reviewing all things materialistic and fancy that you probably can't afford and can only dream of.
This week, we review every Singaporean's wet dream; the latest Toyota Vios, which is priced at an affordable $124,888 (which is only about 35 times the average Singaporean's monthly salary). Our motoring correspondent, Hips Tan, was lucky enough to take a drive in the luxury car this weekend.
The car is surprisingly nimble and smooth in getting you off the mark, and actually has a steering wheel, a gear box, and an engine, which will get you from 0-100km/h faster than the MRT or the bus will. The 1.5A auto Elegance is, like its name says, Elegant; the design is so elegant that driving past the MRT station makes heads turn.
The legroom and space is roomier than its closest alternative and competitor, the MRT and bus, and the detail in the smell of the seats is improved as compared to the smell of armpits in the train and the bus. The prestige is obvious, as the roomy boot allows you to pack in your gym gear as you head to your C-suite gym.
It is believed Vin Diesel will be using this luxury car in his next Fast and Furious movie, racing against a Porsche which costs about the same price in the US.
