Added on November 12, 2009, 10:18 pmu reminds me the story of wira
wira oso 10XXkg.
if wira 1.6 car also very imba.
too bad my house no wira 1.6, else i wont get the current red babes.
perodua and toyota very sucess to make the car lighter
u see kelisa around 900kg
myvi 940kg
even the new MPV oso 1050kg.
Even lighter than saga m-line which is 1080kg!!!
toyota vios J is 1020kg which is same wif my car.
good handling is not a main factor in malaysia market? normal ppl need good city car, not cornering car.
jz 2 my cent.
So thats why Myvi end up wif severe damage when hit those heavy car lo...
Anyway, just went to ask for repair for my friend Myvi...left front mudguard change + repray + knock back bumper (mechanics not gurantee the result will be satisfy) + clip back headlamp (top screw holder and some bar holding that lamp adi broken, and the plastic cover also scratch) + repray half bumper, cost RM450...luckily the price is still 'acceptable'

info update also: the car hit by Myvi is Hyundai Sonata, very solid...

actually lighter not so good also, it could be the cut cost in terms of the car body...not safe...but you have to know that toyota has been in the industry for so many years world wide, they have more staff, more experience in the motor industry...u cant really compare a major player with proton who is still growing, even though they're already in the business for 20 or so years, but they have been protected by govt for too long, also cause a lot of problems and failures...nevertheless, I think they are improving, otherwise i wun even dare to buy a proton.
This is the 1st national car for my family...suprisingly my father agree for this BLM purchase, before that he just curse proton like hell...

maybe attracted by the appearance and its cheap price...but after he test drive, his comment is '都几好力下 geh' (pickup is quite good)...
