A person paying for a RM50K-RM70K for a car may not be paying much attention at the depreciation rate but a person spending around RM140K will definitely think twice. Even a mere 9% depreciation a year will mean a lot that's why resale value is serious business in Malaysia.

I think pricing it at RM130K-RM140K ranges will be a tough sale even if it's a good car. Of course, there will always be a group who always buy during launches but looking at it a year or two later, will these sales be sustainable if it is priced too highly?
*
9% for the 1st or 1.5 years is a fair depreciation. Not by any means spectacular, but also not that bad either. I think that's the point Gregy's trying to make.

I do agree with him though.

just look at the pricing of kia sportage.

naza is determined not to please everyone by cheapen their image and price.

a few years down the road, the impression of the public will change.

From a "lousy distributor that sells lousy car cheap, and fudges you up by slashing prices for old models that couldn't sell" to "greedy lousy distributor that sells great cars expensive, but fudges it up again with lousy service"? hmm.gif

they tried to hire some higher management ppl from toyota and perodua la. since june 2011. so, hopefully they will be better biggrin.gif

the lousy service is due to.....well you know, the industry is very competitve, and perodua giving 8 months bonus, so they can change job anytime, the turn over very high.

foreman tends to open their own store tongue.gif

don't quite understand how Perodua foreman turn over high has anything to do with KIA's lousy service rclxub.gif

make money d should invest in service centres loh, put la class abit, like Honda... not paying the higher management more... they make money bcoz of good cars from KIA, not management decisions from NAZA KIA....

Hyundai SDAC also another sohai company, make money d, fill pocket dulu.. customers can go fly kite or play kuku

oh, i mean, the turnover rate of good after sales ppl are very high.

so you will always see jokers around.

and if i'm not mistaken, naza is not paying good money, thus you see a lot of jokers there biggrin.gif

come on, who wanna work for naza? go work for honda la, perodua la. toyota la.

probably due to supply shortage... they cant keep up with demand, so no point sell cheap if cant deliver..

better they reap profit first....

remember naza has a track record of screwing up customers by slashing price later... might happen when they can keep up with the demand later...
