Hello everyone. I have a question to ask. I'm getting a car, either a 2nd-hand 2004 Toyota Vios 1.5E or a brand new Proton Persona. The problem is that I can't decide between these two cars. I know Toyota fares better in terms of quality and reliability, but it is already a 4-year-old car. So I'm worried that there might be problems. On the other hand, Proton Persona is new and has improved a lot compared to its predecessors. I hope that I can get opinions on which car to get as the prices for both cars are about the same. Thank you for your time.

Just go for persona... Remember bout maintainance, i think persona is cheaper to maintain as compared to Vios, and 4 year old means few big changes waiting for you...

dont buy proton car la my dear.. lau ya 1.. perodua is better ...

i will definitely go fot persona, because it is spacious and have improved quality. And t. vios is considered old car already. After 5 years u settle the loan, the car is already 9 years old. How good the car it is, it still will facing some aging problem.

depends , if the vios was in good hands, i will go for vios.

never forget the bad experience from proton though ppl always say now is better oready....

How much for a 4 yr old vios?

stupidest post i ever saw so far

Well, the main reason I'm getting the Vios is because my relative is planning to sell it. I believe she has taken good care of the car. At first, I wanted to get it straightaway. But on second thought, maybe I can give the Persona a try. Actually, I'm okay with both cars. Of course, I prefer Toyota due to its reputation. No offence to anyone, okay?

Anyway, my dad drives a Proton Waja and it gives him a lot of problems although I understand Proton has changed for the better already.

To thunderbird: My relative is selling it to me at RM52,000.
