like ppl spend 100k to buy old bmw la.

other wise the most logical thing should be some saga or myvi only.

at least we get to choose.

My SA just SMS to me on 22 Feb, there have a roadshow at Mid-valley and the new Elantra also be there (confirm)

My guess that there are some kind of fans of this MIVEC or VTEC in Bolehland.
Pelik bila lihat EG or EK civic still can sell 20-40K although already more 15 yrs old.
Same story, my friends still buy 2nd hand lancer although I tell them a lot of car better. Hmmm.. MIVEC & VTEC special case.

old vtec is different.

100hp per liter. those are for speedster

mivec, you mean the old mivec in wira/waja, those are really power can turbocharged somemore.

the newer one.....er.........not anymore.

you prefer ppl to love china cars or some old xxxxxx car? lol.

The evo10 mivec also turbo charged mar

i mean the ordinary lancer that you see on the road, very seldom u can see they BOT it. unlike wira.

evox of cos came with a turbo already.

somebody have done 230km/h with his stock fd2 civic..the only mod he done is AD08 tyre..anyone know the highest speed done by Lancer/inspira stock?

But I believe the styling is one of the major factor that rocketed the Civic's sales. People who don't know much about cars will not bother to care about the i-Vtec or how many gears or performance... If you talking about those factors, Lancer is quite similar yet Lancer was selling badly compared to Civic even before it was Proton-ised. If you are to talk about generations of success, I believe Corolla had better reputation than Civic. Then you look at Sonata and Tucson, both of them don't have much reputation compared to the Japanese yet they are selling at decent numbers now. There are still many people don't care (or know) much about the spec or mechanical of the cars but they care about the styling of the cars if they are indifferent about the resale value or reputation or after sales.

look + reputation = sells.

pure look = can sell in small number

pure reputation = sells.

right?

pure look +goodies X100 = can sell in small numbers.

why are u dragging in all the cars to confuse ppl?

like that, every car can sell. even rubbish like juara/ tiara.

lancer? you buy rm110k car ask you to go service in EON center, you want or not?

Latio selling so badly maybe Nissan no reputation also... But then GL selling so well...
Why 110k don't want to go EON? Not 1.1million...
sell in small numbers also have to see how small or big is it... Mazda6 got look + goodies + Japan reputation, but the sales

mazda 6 too fierce, ah pek scare.

But Optima seems to be selling quite decently despite the fierce looking.. Maybe still in honeymoon period... Until now get to see 4 Optimas otr...

Engine still new to do bot on la.. nowadays people go for low pressure turbo for daily drive. Those big bot ons hardly people mod them anymore plus its not easy to do 1, have to change alot of things.

beli ni saja la.... wait till bit sien d...

the spec...very keng..

but the outlook abit sad

interior okay mah...

bro, outlook must be sexy...else hard to grab attention..

somehow nowadays everyone follow the same interior design..

by the way, hard to believe proton being so generous...wonder wat the price

Ppl said Vios looks ugly but still seated as top sales for Non-local car in M'sia. so outlook is not so important for MOST ppl.
I bet the new Proton P3-21A can pawn Elantra gao gao if the price is more than 10-15K gaps.

vios ugly but branded and according to them, reliable

and its the cheapest reasonable import car

ya its a miracle lol for a 2.0 c segment.
the 1.6, are said to be 65k but of course others complain so no way to get that.
