yes, civic is almost the weight of waja .
and civic safety is better than waja ... why ? obviously waja is a 9 yrs old car , the platform needs another 2 years to develope. so it is about 10years plus .
and civic is consider as the latest in terms of engineering and performance .

driving wise , waja is better than civic . in certain criteria, proton can't go to the weight of civic becasue honda have far lot more experience than proton in making cars . at the same time , there are things to be trade off when we mention about safety and handling . for example , GOA of toyota makes toyota safer than the rest , but to make a GOA car, they have to trade off certain thing of the handling to comply to their goal by designing the front part softer and absorb more force in a an accident.

i dont see the reason for proton to put ISOFIX in this car .
well , obviously i am with claxxion. malaysia is the main market for this exora, but if u go out and do some survey, there aren't much people care about this . we got seat belt enforcement for every car , but how many are using it ? at that level , those ppl aren't really care about the isofix thingy. what the automotive union must do is to standardize the isofix licencing fee so that it can be adapted in almost everyone.

paultan is stating a suggestion there , however in terms of economical scale for exora , it isn't worth. probably it could be the licencing fee to adapt the design into it is expensive or etc .

one thing i disagree with paultan is his highlight on the isofix issue.
well, i think there are more imporant thing to highlight than the isofix thing.
people say promote it to the public etc . which people dont really care .
i believe it is a thing to be mentioned , but it isn't something that should be highlighted . we can highlight better thing.

highlight something which is like what is relevant. those are some minor thing only which is worthwhile to be mentioned but not highlighted.
for example the sitting position, the quality of the texture, the lack of damping material etc...
isofix is something not worthwhile to be highlighted so big.

it is so obvious that it looks wayy better than the rest . i am not bias here , but the razor lines of the body makes it one generation ahead.
