I see the design of Preve is inoffensive and looks simple, with few lines.

Somehow, it is just like the VW Jetta which has simple dashboard design too.

I don't think it looks ugly.

If someone prefers design with more curves, I think the new Focus does a better job.

Foreign cars no longer subjected to flat 300% tax for a number of years now.

Besides, actually the then 300% tax was for cars above 3000 cc.

Current system has two tiered tax. First, import duty (nil for Asean CEPT, if not mistaken). Another one is the excise duty, that is locally based taxation.

The tax was raised in 1998.

Then, because of AFTA, then the tax structure was changed in 2005.

very stupid, as a manufacturing engineer, tat part is considered a sealed part, where it is not the exterior of a car, i will just weld it, and if the weld integrity is there, then what for u go and make that part pretty since ppl are not so dumb to go and look at this kind of place everytime, and they only can see them when they open and close door, heck i don think ppl even really look at those part, who the fk open door and stare at the door inner part for awhile then go out of the car? (only those fuking dumb mofo did this)

Sometimes, I felt like some people, even if they do not like the car, that is their purview, but keeping posting things in this thread, as if wanting to start fire.

the test drive and people coming to the showrooms are sure causing proton headaches ..such as start button tenggelam, battery kong, spot welding issue n to rub salt in the wound would be people nt knwing how to drive the cvt and nt understanding the characteristics of DBW+CFE+CVT is different than the average 4 speed auto coupled with the N/A engine .. this is going to be a PR nightmare trying to address the people.. godspeed proton

what do you needs for a turbo engine in street like KL or Penang? and if in highway, you get some ticket to PDRM
*
Turbo is more for torque rather than pure power output.

It's like asking why VW needs TSI engine on their small cars, or why Ford needs Ecoboost engine in Fiesta etc.

Just look at Europe.

It is so unbecoming.

the goverment charge 300% for imported car, y?
*
There had been no 300% tax for imported car since many years ago due to AFTA.

Infact, even when there was 300%, the tax was applied on CBU cars with engine capacity higher than 3000cc.

The current tax for cars below 1.8 litre is like this.

http://www.maa.org.my/info_duty.htm

Zero import tax (for ASEAN cars) plus 75% excise duty plue 10% sales tax.

At the end of the car, owners themselves decide what to buy.

And mind you, we never barge into other threads and badmouthing car owners, like what you do here. wink.gif

I prefer solid white, as the character line is evident in this colour.

Even without tax, the Civic is still more expensive than Preve.

http://www.honda.com.my/model/overview/civic/

Civic 1.8 litre priced at RM 80k (OTR with insurance)

Civic 2.0 litre priced at RM 83k (OTR with insurance).
