As I said earlier, dun look at the quality.. How to compare a RM70K car wth a RM140K car? .. That comparison is just to tell the owner of the earlier photo that not only preve having that 1/2 cut style welding point but other cars too.. i do agree on the rough welding job on preve but not to the days ago photo about the 1/2 cut status of Prve
That 140K is after tax. Can you imagine before tax? And same for the Preve too? Same category.
Unless you compare manufacturer's status. That is fair. Price varies and in Malaysia, using price to judge a car is out of the question. Same for motorbike. But that would be out-of-topic. Just leave the price tag out. Hyundai is the closest company that can be compared to Proton for its age and hardship. Both started during post-war era.
When others can achieve the same why not Proton? Don't forget, Honda, Toyota and other Japs car is used to be bashed too but look at the now.
As for Hyundai, look at them now. Look at the board of directors. All imported from Audi, VW, and other major car company.
The company itself can tell us what will the product look like.
Mind you that in the mid-east, Proton sells their car cheaper than Malaysia. Tax my *** when its already Made in Malaysia.
As for a petrolhead. The AFTA & EXCISE TAX has been the real blockade that is hurting our hearts.
