hmm about this, is it really that much a difference? idk my 1.3 iriz exec just renewed insurance, the valuation was about 26k for a 3 year old car.
the otr price was 48k at that time, but my actual cost was only 42k due to various discounts. so 42-26k= 16k depreciation for 3 years isn't that bad right?
and after checking for myvi 1.3 second hand prices online, its about 30k. no doubt p2 resale value is higher, but that 4~5k difference doesn't exactly scream like i lost a lot of money to warrant getting a car based on the 2nd hand resale value alone.
anyway idk why this is still floating around as well. my iriz for 3 years masuk service center for routine servicing only (engine oil, oil filter) cost about rm 140 each time?
i found online it says
http://www.perodua.com.my/service-maintena...wmyvi-1500cc/10for myvi first 10k service (basic engine oil), totals about RM 188? that's more than my iriz wei.
im even more shocked when i see 20k service, RM 357.43 ???
you compare
http://helios.apdsecureapp.com/proton/serv...vice%20Menu.pdffor iriz every 10k service (basic engine oil), for first 3 service meaning 1k, 10k and 20k its only RM 122, after that including labour its RM 192.
i dont see how p2 is cheaper than p1 at this point..
no seriously, go see the link and compare for yourself.
why is the myvi's maintenance so much more expensive?

Myvi is using 'FULLY SYNTHETIC' while Iriz is using 'SEMI SYNTHETIC..
