Hi stat_88, just been through your dilemma, personal experience only, to all I'm not here to offend, the day before I made my choice I was on a long trip and noticed 98 out of 100 cars on the road were white, blue, black, silver or red, so I went with Swift and thought I would regret it, it's been about 6 weeks now and the colour gets better every time I look at it, very happy and get comments every day. Wouldn't turn back!! As for price, Vic only, spent a week on the phone and got the best price in Geelong ( rex gorrel ) Manual, Leather & Sat/nav, 60k flat drive away. And trust me, you will love manual !!!! Oh sorry, took about 6 weeks for delivery, no manuals made unless ordered. Please everyone, this is only my opinion, don't shoot me down !!!
