the 6 seater is very impressive, the captain seat, oh.

So far got any you guy to booking blod premium model?
Worth buy or keep on decide others brand MPV?

Agree! One thing I gotta admit is Exora's handling is superb. Based on power-to-weight ratio, Exora wins Innova (by a bit), and design wise also better than Innova. It's just that the badges that make the difference...

How can the Innova based on a truck compete with the Exora, other than through the badge?

I don't know... I quite like the lack of a chrome badge on the steering wheel. Looks kinda subtle, different... however the headlights are not exactly pretty or modern to me. Something like this http://robson.m3rlin.org/cars/wp-content/u...0x1200-copy.jpg would be a lot cooler. Projector headlights with LEDs for the indicators, as eyelids. Or perhaps http://www.streetcar.dk/images/show/213051.jpg

I think I'd buy the Exora if I needed a new MPV and couldn't afford a Touran (twice the price for a car that's not nearly twice as good? )

mate, similar price range

and toyota badge has a halo effect

Yeah, I know, similar price. Which means the Innova is terribly overpriced.

welcome to malaysia!! truly asia~~!!(ripping u off the asian style)

Why nobody compare to Kia Rando?

er..... ok, lets talk about something else.

Me too find this exora good. however why u all compare it to g-livina/avanza/alza? if only b'cos similar $ range then u r getting the wrong pic.
I drive avanza,my colleague innova. He so "jealous" my avanza 'cos his innova simply too big for daily use. his wife intimidate by the size until no confidence to drive out.he has to travel along to work, carrying 6 fullsize empty chairs daily from Kajang to kl, 'cos his wife insist to swap his ori myvi. Only during weekend then may be the innova is filled. wat's d point ??
Avanza is shorter than iswara.Very practical to use as daily car. Excellent to go market/school, & sit full 7 if for short distance though long dist is a big no-no.but ask urself, how often u travel long dist with full 7??
Same goes to Inpira/vios/city & saga/viva. Not everybody want the size + features+ big cc even though similar price. Different cars for diff need.

Because a family with at least 3 children will compare to those you mentioned when they're looking for an MPV. If I have 3 children will definitely go for Exora Bold. No doubt about it. In fact, me and wifey already tempted to buy even we're just a family of 3 . I rather wait than buying GL or Alza right now.

u will need to consider mine also, i bough a sedan, but occupied only by me everyday, in-term of size and purpose i must choose small car like kancil or kelisa because only drive to work everyday. but i rather sacrifices my long investment to something i will not regret for now and maybe future.
for your case avanza not look like MPV for me, why u bough avanza? since you got a-lot of choice others car. their comparing the price tag and class, and i beg many of malaysian will consider the brand rather than the purpose.

just buy a porsche boxster to work.

and leave the econobox for weekend family outing!!!

Never buy/never used/never own/never know.
My colleague,he tot innova more proper mpv than avanza, which is very true in paper.He has 3 children + a maid+stay nearby parents/auntie/uncle so very good chance to fully use the seats, but well, end up who is enjoying more daily?i not say extra space is bad,i also not say avanza better than alza/livina,but buy wat u need frequently,not occasionally until bcome white elephant.

Er I prefer alza

Bck to exora. y d compression ratio so low 1?I tot soft turbo no matter how soft still turbo ma so should be higher, eg12~13:1?if current true then no high compress oso can gv tis good toq, would be good 4 d engine longevity d. knapa??

Turbo always low compression la. Only Myvi is high compression.

You mean low boost is it?

13:1 then prepare for RON100 la..ish....

oic. having read a bit on wiki,turbo already compress air b4 enter cylinder,so CR similar to NA,but with air/fuel compressed,right?so if the turbo spoilt,the exora will behave like normal 1.6?
actually no interest on turbo b4,but once testdrove d exora,interest grow very smooth & nice power it has.

once you test drive sure you feel like 'damn I want this MPV!' especially for a poor guy like me Me and wifey already put Exora Bold on our wishlist and start to save more money. Looking to get this mpv by end of next year
