Hmm... seems like a good buy to me, though I can't say much because I've never been in one nor know much about it. There's been one in my neighbourhood for two years or so I think.

The closest MPV I can think of to compare this with is the Honda Odyssey. It's bigger than the Stream or Wish but smaller than the Naza Ria or Estima.

2.4L SOHC MIVEC can be said to be on par with the Honda Odyssey's 2.4L i-VTEC at 162 bhp. Accord 2.4's i-VTEC makes more power than the Odyssey's, in case you didn't know.

The interior also definitely looks more interesting than the previous Odyssey (not sure about the current one), although it seems somewhat narrow in that pic.

For 160k, it's definitely a better buy than the smaller Wish and the slightly-bigger Odyssey which costs RM200k+. Yes, you can get a 2nd-hand Estima at that price, but you'll also get the perks that come with new cars. Free service and 3-year (or is it 5 years now?) warranty, etc.

I also found an interesting review here:
