He know a lot of stuff in the automotive industry.
He always said wanna buy Honda but never dapat Honda coz everytime new Camry come out, they replace him new Company car.
But few months back, when i wanna get the Civic, he dun allow.. he said it's either u drive ur current old Altis or get a BMW.
Well a lot things i sked reveal here (later dad kena pecat) but what i can say is..
Toyota & Honda cars were superior. They're very good. But that is last time. The toyota Altis i driving(not the current model) profit margin is lower compared to the current new Altis. The old altis they use high quality build and everything is good material, hence last time the selling price was RM121k. But the new altis cost is very low.. all the parts also wanna cut-cost. With the new CEO of Toyota having the founder bloodline, he is very arrogant and a lot top executives wanna sabotage him (hence the sticky pedal). The Vios was a good car, but the new version use too much cheap stuff liao.. they sourced the parts to cheaper supllier. even the UMW/AISB/ASSB produce good quality parts but sell to proton and perodua.
So to those current old altis/vios/camry owners, ur car is good dun simply sell... 2nd hand altis(yr 2003) can sell good price still.
Dun under estimate national car esp Perodua, coz the parts and manufacturing team is AISB/UMW wan.

itu saja i wanna share.. kthxbai
nice 1. but bmw 3 series and toyota top model price difference still alot leh
no lah.. cannot compare like that.. just that not all perodua cars is sucky lo.. and not necessary jap car is good-est liao. proton i not sure la.. but UMW supplies a lot parts to proton as well. bare in mind these parts ARE the same parts used in ur toyota when u send to toyota service center.
