It is unfair to compare a RM70K++ Potong car with a RM70K++ imported car i.e Toyota and the like.

The price for imported cars have been hiked up close to a 100% of their original price and they have to compromise many features and specs just to compete with the local trash Potong.

RM70K++ for a piece of local junk is considered very expensive especially for the quality that they are providing.

Elsewhere in the world, RM70k++ can get you quality of a VW Golf and the like.

Not build/assemble in Malaysia, I guess?

There is where you got it wrong my friend.
Any foreign car is an imported car, regardless of it being CKD or CBU.

Hello fren, Potong is a local car. Why should it be subjected to those taxes in the table http://www.maa.org.my/info_duty.htm
Under Local Taxes CBU and CKD, Potong is not subject to these taxes.
If a Vios is taxed only 10% more than a Potong, the latter would have gone into administration a long time ago.

Potong is subjected to the same excise duty and sales tax like vios. Vios is subjected to an additional 10% import duty.

Thanks for clarifying.
Anyhow, to me, Potong doesn't exist because it is a combination of "bought" technology tweaked a lil' here and there and claiming it as their own. I will not even consider it if I am getting a new car.

Well, you guys can laugh all you want but deep down we all know what "bought" technology is and we all know how original Potongs are.
G'day mates. All the best with your Potongs.
