Ironically, Merc did the opposite of BMW. E-class in worst 10, while 3 Smart cars in top 10. Smart gets better material than e-class, hm... n ganu excos hv just bought E-class, even said they're "satisfied with their safety", harhar (even though of differect spec ie E200K vs E350). Paul, paul....sempat criticise Savvy over Jazz. Why not Smart? Since they're under merc, maintenance shud be cheaper than proton's savvy, wakakakak Where’s Volvo?

Who knows the soft touch materials or vynil plastics on more expensive cars are more poisonous. When adding proton savvy in there I know you're trying to make a point but ur making one without any basis at all. This is speculation at best..where is the impartiality..

Ironically, these toxic emissions are all part and parcel of the "new car smell" everyone loves!

Or they are using cheap material from Japan? Hey, i thought some one commented:

As far as i know interior materials must meet FMVSS requiremnts for major car manufacturers. It's surprising that the BMW 1 series don't meet this requirement. Even they are cutting costs on their 'cheaper' models, presumably. And they are way more expensive than P1 or P2! Roti Naan,
