very true.....anyway just my 2 cents.....

prices of car going down means that worse sales for proton unless they reduce their car price too which is unlikely......

no way the government will allow proton to die......the only way proton will survive is other car is more expensive than proton......so the least is the car prices will not change much and hope for no price increase......

why I say this is the only way proton will survive, even with VW joining in the bandwagon, no way there will be a turnaround fast enough to increase sales/quality drastically in 1 year....only with better quality and designs can proton gain more customers' confidence and sales...........it takes more time.....so until that happens, no way that prices of car will be going down.

i believe they are refering to "1) import tax". but not sure if that is the right term anymore as the locally assembled/manufactured cars also got tax.

that is true. i have given up buying new cars already. if i want a car, will hunt for 2nd hand cars in the range of 1 year - 2 years. save a lot from buying new car. yes a bit difficult to find a good condition one, so just have to be patient. of course you need to have a lot of time and hopefully have enough knowlegde on how to value/judge a car's condition, else need to bring a friend expert along during survey.

thanks for the compliment but the things is, i am not really expert in judging condition of car's engine also. only know how to check to see if the car got accident
before or not.

he he he....actually even experience person will make mistake. no need to say about me lah.....i am no expert at all....so that's why i brought my dad along when i really like a car. also sometimes....the car will only give funny noises when on the move.....because got loading to the engine.....so the important thing is to test drive and have a feel on the car......

very important thing about buying a car is never never never ever fall into the trap of making fast decision. they salesman will always try to rush you to put deposit even when you say you want to just think about it first. take your time to inspect the car. bring one or two person along so that the salesman will not always try to distract your attention when you are checking the car out.

how I wish of that possibility....but.....i am pretty sure this will never happen. some people just can't afford to buy car that is above their budget......there will always be people who buy proton.....like me.... .....but at least now i got a choice to buy perodua....cheap but better quality than proton....this is my 2 cents. those who like proton over perodua pls don't flame me ya.

totally agree.....they will not announce it till the very last minute.......to avoid economy crisis and panic in the nation......

same thing on petrol prices....they will only annouce a few hours before they want to increase the price.....the last time petrol price increase....they announce it at the 9.00pm - 10.00 pm news. Then you see the petrol station suddenly got JAM till 12.00 midnight.....

any news yet on the car price?.....the road tax is down a bit.......

mine is down from RM325 to RM280

yes....kia carens 1.8 year 2004, Aug --> still like this car a lot.....thinking of keeping this car till its probably more than 10 years old.....

err....how come you ask......your car also same cc?


because in singapore is really motorcycle....not kapcai like the ones here.....

those cars' price go up because of car enthusiasts only...as far as the bank is concern.....they will not provide full loan if you want to buy those cars.....as for them the price for the car is not that high.........

true......but I wouldn't want that kind of girl.......unless of course you are looking for the type......
