what's the DP, interest rate and # of years you're calculating from?

erm...DP 5k, 4.1%, 9years. take a long time because i dont think i will change the car so fast. i'm not like certain person who love to change car often.

with the amount of money they spend on mod,

aint it better off to buy a bigger car?

the war between savvy and myvi is really a tough one , it can even last for ages .
for 1 thing i would like to say , both are different car build at different plant for different preference .

the thing is like this perodua myvi certainly got the easier to look view , and proton savvy certainly looks different . maybe many will say this ,'wah , savvy with bodykit much hotter than myvi' but bear in mind , yes we are talking about that , we are talking about bodykit , but the first thing ppl will think in mind is the original work of the car .

second thing is , ya. i have to admit myvi is bigger in size,  and savvy is smaller. althought both feels exactly the same more and less size difference except when it comes into the business of headroom . the myvi has advantage due to its tall headroom , and it looks bigger due to the proportion of the car where u can see there is a wide body look alike . savvy looks different due to its stupid look , and the rear desgin makes it look smaller than it actually is , park an iswara beside and u will see how big the car is . i dont see any reason why ppl still argue on the size of myvi and savvy . but savvy does look really different , it might not looks special , but the buttock is really not a good thing . where to get a customer when the first impression is not 'wow' but 'yerrr' ...

over all , myvi has a great interior but wide use of plastic bins dashboard , and savvy has a so so interior but with wide use of slightly better texture plastics in the car , that makes the difference . i dont mean to bash savvy designer , but the interior of savvy especially the door panels looks sick. but no one will bother the perodua myvi interior or interior once u get used of the car .

another thing is the car , both car the engine and body is mean for different busines . yes u got the car , the savvy , it is a good handler . but why is there someone still saying ,' ya , myvi can be a good handler too , with struts bar and sports suspension..' this is the same argument where savvy supporters are saying , add bodykit to make savvy looks cool , and myvi supporters kiasu abit saying add more brace and struts to make the myvi drives great .

the reason myvi sells well is becaue it is suitable to the general public taste . most people in malaysia , they wants a car where it has space , cheap , and reputable , myvi has it all , it looks slightly bigger , it has price advantage with proton , and it has a toyota built engine . i do admit that myvi looks better , but it drives without soul , u feel the engine trying to struggle above 140(i was told) and the car feels unstable through corners , it feels like a box with an engine. on the ohter hand , savvy feels like u can really get yourself inside the car , like interconnected with the car , it feels alive , that the the perfect thign of proton savvy, u feel the soul , the engine , and the road , and u would feel that taking more and more and more corners everytime u exit the highway . but savvy doesn't really fit into the criteria where people hunts for a car , i mean , ya ... most of it's RnD is into the chassis developement , until they dont have much left to do the door panel hence they came out with stupid door panel design , but most people in malaysia needs a car which is a bit bigger , cheap and reputable , and proton fits it with a very debatable engine , the renault french engine . when people say cheap , it doesnt mean u have to consider what it is RnD in , no body will bother u when u say ... ' ya uncle , it is cheap becasue the chassis is so rigid and RnD of lotus' . i have to say , at this segment it isn't really a criteria for people to buy car in malaysia . proton has made a mistake this time in malaysia,  it doesnt fit into any criteria where people needs on a car , especially u have a proton myvi as competitor . strong chassis and good handling might be a good selling point , but at this level , it is not the criteria and it is not what people needs for a car at 40-50k range . perhaps beasue they aim it to sell overseas more , so maybe it is not a mistake .

it is like a lady . myvi is plump , looks okok , where general ppl would accept her look , but she looks normal , and she got normal personality as most girls has , nothing much special , most important , she loves kids , she is almost good in every aspect . while savvy is like another girl , she looks ok , distinctive , with huge ear rings , got some tatoos at her buttcrack( just liek what proton savvy has so many design flaw , the butt) , she is an athlete and she got her own personality well , not well accepted by public , but will have her own fans or admirer .

the answer is easy , u would like to have a girl which looks and have normal , acceptable personality and style . or you would like to have a girl which has her own and style in another way .
