The pricing is all wrong.it is an old engine.possibly an old platform as well but perhaps enhanced. And the competitors are selling all round better values at 10k less. Yes toyota the brand is valuable but it WILL NOT do it this time

now people buy what they want brand or not. Yes it was the 'brand' that decides but now no longer. People kept banging about tax this that even one pratt amazingly blame an old man for camry high otr price.however the real culprit is, i'm afraid, umw.

At 130k oso can make money (after those taxes).perhaps 10-15k PER CAR. but otr 150k means bigger money. I am proposing a win win solution. Better sales AND profits.

Price the 2.0L at 130k.otr or not doesnt matter.i will be a confirm buyer. So now u have a confirm buyer umw. Ball is in ur court. What say u?

PM me umw

Toyota do their homework liao de. Their main target are ppl who use car as utility and most likely use nokia 1200 phones.

I check the spec liao, vs the Teana its no big diff, only diff is about 8K in price, i am sure Toyota will diskaun a bit on the car for existing owner and also give good value for trade in, still more attractive considering its all-new.

I refer to 2.0E btw.

No, the difference in comfort is rather big. At least comparing XM with old Camry. Also the seats in the XM were amazing. Our leather sofa can't compete. I expect new Citroens to be the same, some of the best seats I have sat on are the ones in our Xsara. Very comfortable, also suitable for long distance journeys.

The spheres aren't that difficult, but you do need someone who is familiar with this stuff. They can also be refurbished as far as I know.

Anyway, when you can spend 180k on a car you shouldn't be so poor that FC is a big issue, or the price of spare parts. If it is, you are buying above what you can afford.

The Passat and funky?

Not really, no. I'd argue it looks even more uncle than the Camry. The C5 is also a rather elegant car, nothing flashy. http://photos.autoexpress.co.uk/images/fro...to_244017_7.jpg I think it is gorgeous (the interior a bit boring and outdated, but still ok).

beg to differ on that bolded part

why spend more on such parameters if u can spend less
yes the contis are all super good allround in mechanics etc etc but the super sleek citroen uses air suspension if i am not mistaken. air suspension - there is no other way to describe it - is expensive. for comparison w220 is 3-4k a pop. and u need a pair of it

of course u buy 180k surely 10k for air suspension is petty. but why pay 10k if u can pay less. the way to pay less is not to buy a 180k conti in the first place but a 180k car which has no air suspension which is the camry. plus the camry is all rounder as a car i.e resale value, not bad combo value of price, after sales, and replacement parts etc etc.

the only criticsm of the camry is the ridicolous price. for that price, without being bias, i think lower end of 140k is the best rather than 10bucks less 150k.

The statistics shows that Malaysian buy cars based on the price. The cheaper the car's price, most probably will be the most popular. It is always about what they can get the most (based on their needs) for the money that they have.

Most Malaysian will avoid Korean cars. I myself have been using a Korean MPV for almost 7 years. I bought that vehicle since it is the most affordable MPV with huge engine at that time.

Will I consider another Korean car. I would say no. If Exora comes with a 2.5L engine and a bigger body size, I will choose it.

The government tax is high. Our currency rate is low. Hence, most of us don't have many choices. For a D segment with a 2.5L engine, the most affordable cars are from the Japanese manufacturers. As I said, I would avoid Korean car for whatever reason. BTW, it's my personal preferences.

If a continental car is affordable (need to consider the maintenance costs as well), I would have chosen an Audi or Volvo.

it is very irritating though as a normal human for another human keeping bashing others for whatever god knows reasons. the car he bought is fine nothing wrong with it. perhaps it is among the greatest looking car we have here in malaysia in the D segment

and camry is just a great car as well. so nothing is wrong with the cars.

surely something is wrong with person. with such (wrong) dedications keeping coming here and there for no reason but bashing this and that, people cant help but thinking whats wrong with this guy. perhaps he is just sour grape? i dont know. its a possibility for sure.

get on with ur life. its a great car. go have fun with it. in other threads, seems u are not an irritating person but WHY are u trying so hard to be one?

I guess the Debate was healthy and very informative up to the point where name callings and insults were thrown which is a typical trait of an internet debate.immaturity that ends all arguements.I dont regard myself so highly to the point of calling another person stupid.simply speaking, Everyone has their opinions and i respect yours.Congrats On your internet 'win' and ChEers

i enjoy the debate. and i can see your points.
but that guy ruined it big time.
perhaps he never know what is going on to be honest and never been engaged in a healthy debate


so the heavyweights are at it again.


come on. measure a car in a complete package i.e put all the factorings in it. but that could be troublesome because the factors varied personally. however honestly we cant go overboard, just to prove a point. 2 airbags are deemed sufficient by those at UMW but how they come to that conclusion is anyones guess. then the old transmission and engine. they are still giving much much refine operation compared to supposely new engine in some brands. the problem with the new camry is the pricing. perhaps?

u can always blame UMW for the shortcomings. but not the people who bought the car, particularly the 2.0 camry.

so let us redivert our angst, and energy in cursing UMW instead. of course we are going after UMW arent we. and yes we can get our points to them without childishing ourselves by name calling and calling camry drivers cunts or something. the only way to get UMW understand is of course by reducing the sales of camry but let us do that without having to pray for deaths. or whatever bad things to camry owners.

i heard the ol 4 GB still doing great compared to 6 speeders in some brands. really?
