Are you sure you saw Tun Dr. M be4 or went to his open house? his kids business & the fleet of imported cars at his house seen is believing! Even he sit on a Perdana to work, that is just G car he can claim from the G but how about his own cars?!? You know Taib Mahmud of Sarawak? I think he is sitting on a rolls royce to work.. BN cronies earn more then a bunch of Perdana sitting at thier own back yard. If PR state buy Toyota is wastefull, then just vote them down. So what? Since you decide on the vote. If you think BN ppl wont wollop more money then PR, then vote for BN. So what? In the end, is your choice! This is a car blog, not Political blog please keep it clean.

Car blog huh? What kind of hypocrite are you? You come into Paultan’s blog everyday cursing the government no matter what they do and supporting PR like they came from heaven to serve the rakyat. Atleast the other members here agree or disagree with the government once a while but not you, you will always support PR no matter what. Why don’t you just admit that you treat this blog as a political blog because most of your arguements involve politics! If you treat this as a car blog, then i dont want to see you comment anything about politics anymore because im sick of reading your one-sided comments.

Not a news flash but totally agree with you…
It’s such a shame; I envy those who gets to buy a Vios for the price of a Saga.

the saga is rubbish.

In Malaysia, because of the taxes imposed on Japanese cars, Japanese cars are overstated as luxury cars.

A Merc, BMW, Audi are luxury cars… what is there to ponder further?

If we open the car market, do you think all the major car manufacturers will set up the factories in Thailand, where they have manpower probelm, people who do not speak English and Thailand do not have the downstream industries to support the automotive industries. Imagine how much Malaysia have been losing for all these years……………………
Just calculate how many Toyota imported to Malaysia per year, multiply by the value of the car. Then you will know how much we are losing. We are talking about Toyota only. If you include Honda, BMW, Isuzu and others, the losing amount per year can actually buy out the toll companies in Malaysia in a year!

Please abuse the Camry as you guys normally do. No offence. We just want to know the reliability. Thanks.

@nyawere:

“Sooo, bottom line is, despite all the cash involved (which by the way we must overcome, but by not changing to another brand) the leaders of Malaysia must buy Malaysia product, even when it is not goo enuff..!!! Or do not become leaders. You people can become businessman…!!! ”

what rubbish.

So many Proton salesman register to comment on this site?

Who teach you that Msian MUST BUY Msian product even when it sux? If they are both the same then maybe patriotism may be considered. But when it is far, far, far, far, far(x100) inferior also must buy?

No thank you.

I am as patriotic as anyone, but no thanks, I don’t believe in giving handouts and crutches. Stand on your own two feet, or don’t bother stand at all.

got, since primary school pendidickan moral teach already, jikalau anda membeli kereta buatan malaysian seperti proton wira atau perodua kancil bermaksud anda cinta akan malaysia. and this crap goes on until spm.

Guys should bashed Terrengannu for buying mercs instead. Those racist BN is simply money minded & biggest con. Still remember public outcry that the govt shld replace with Camry then Mercs..

Many here simply bark at the politicians instead of weighing reason. One young 7 racist guy is simply Nas@Proton. He shd know how much did the past Cronies owe to Ipoh Eon for thier Perdana till the service centre tak layan & blacklisted this car.

Note..the service centre do not even want to service this present Exco’s car..so they are in dilema. Wise choice..go get Camry.

wonder if Nas@Proton is from hell inviting guys to join him.

Look, PR isn’t stupid. They know this will garner very negative press from the UMNO-BN camp. But they went anyway with the camry’s knowing full well this is going to get blown out. I would say they have gone full well into this knowing the benefits of the Camry.

The question is, why would they have not chosen the Accord 2.4 which is CKD that may have gotten a tax exemption. Anyone bother to ask maybe even with CKDs the Fereal Government was not too willing to give the tax exemption as well to oposition states? You know how twisted they can be.

But seriously, not too long ago, some of us still remember that the Corona (the Camry’s predecessor) is just a regular midsized sedan, one step up from the Corolla.

Its just that our rapidly slipping standard of living has pushed what was a regular sedan into the luxury realm in the eyes of the public. Guess who can we blame for that. Hell with the Camry, most people can’t even afford a Corolla….and even worst, even the Vios is beyond the reach of some.

So now, after 20 plus years, many motoring public seemed to think the standard for cars is Proton. It is no wonder, why most people view the CAMRY as luxury cars. The sooner we wake up and realise that the G has robbed us of our rights to good and safe cars for our families, the G will continue to set the standard for cars. ie Proton

As the world progress, we get stuck in our shell thinking Proton is a good car.Unless, the definition of a car remains as a 4 wheeled engine vehicle changes to something that includes safety features as standard, we will be left behind in our own minds.

To me, the Camry 2.4 just about meet the minimum requirements of a modern day car.
I think Toysrus sells better 4 wheeled engine vehicle, if we call them cars.

Yeah.. i know that…

*And current perak G , just refer to the previous state gov bills? How stewpid they are? I thought they were smarter.. but now… they are also rubbish!

I’ll vote Parti Cap Kunci for upcoming election..

Anyway… i dont ever believe in what all they said, either terengganu one.. and perak one.. The P- V6 was never THAT expensive as that to maintain..
It wouldnt ever be 16K per year!.. but if 4 – 7K are reasonable.

unless ‘masuk poket driver or Private assistant (PA)’.. I knew… Many YB PA are cheaters too!.. They are more a$$hole.

Ok fine… now I get other reason for that..
Ngeh Ho Kam and Perak MB are Toyota Fanboy.. same as Trengganu MB too.. Japanese Syndrom.

but the core problem is probably the drivers.

make them pay for their own cars la, best.(thats what our neighbouring country does) then we can see lots of wiras-bmws turning up.

On another note, I reckon we need more oil-burning passenger cars in our beloved country. As we all know, diesel engines have come a long way since the days when they were notoriously noisy and sluggish. In the UK, turbodiesels are quite commonly found in cars ranging from small cars and family cars to executive and luxury sedans. I remember driving a rental Vauxhall Vectra 1.9 CDTi from Liverpool to Aberdeen, with 150bhp under my right foot, effortlessly cruising down the motorway at 140mph (~225km/h). And you’ve GOT to love the instantaneous surge of the 320Nm produced by the turbocharged lump!

Okay that was somewhat off-topic… =P

any comment?

quite weird with not ah beng comment… when he gives comment he usually will stated something that malaysian will fully agree with his comment… no offense not ah beng… it just i want to know if u read thousands of totally different comment posters at the other site or just some hundred?

malaysia has nearly 25millions ppl… say like u just read 100 different ppl comment… it is 100over25million… ok la, its too much… if only 20,000 ppl owns PV6 give comments, that it is only 1/200 comment… still not reliable…

so, pls dont say things means MANY PEOPLE AGREE WITH ME… and again, no offence just ur statement is usually overdefined….

next-time malaysians must protest election by making “UNDI-ROSAK”….

Letz vote for no one !!!!

Anyone else heard of this news?
=========================================
can u go to other people market and try to kill local industry? i dont think so, it was normal that each gov not allow import car to be damn cheap then local made/local owner car. Each gov protect local industry. India will protect maruti, indon will protect toyota, cruel, but that life….
