bro be careful, if it is made in 2012, it is still a 2012 car even if registered in 2013.

Promised by SA from setia alam will get car by 15th January. Still no news. Will probably cancel booking if still no news. Tired of waiting already.

SA was saying that the card will just state 2013 for manufacturing date hence will not affect second hand value in the future.
How true is that?

I guess the 'real' manufacturing date will show up in VIN search database.

I personally think that there is no difference between year 2012 or year 2013 unless its a face-lift version. It's all the excuses cooked up by used-car dealers to squeeze the money out of us. A car being manufactured in Dec 2012 and Jan 2013 makes no difference. It doesn't make your car becomes older by a year all of a sudden.
