Depends on what you're looking for in a car. Fuel economy, space, ergonomics, nice looks, price etc are all factors which depends on personal tastes. So decide what you're looking for and you can make your decision.

Myvi. Becoz I hate proton. Not the cars but rather the company's attitude towards us.. Proton never remember that we Malaysians are their biggest supporter in the whole world.

I repeat again one more time for the 2nd time...Myvi.

I Think He Means P2 Is Better Than Proton.:d :d :d
Agree???????
Through My Experience, My Wife Owned A Kancil, Kenari And
None Of These Cars Give Me A Single Problem.

I Already Place My Money To Book Myvi Today.......
And I Can't Wait To Welcome Myvi Into My Family..

I'd go for MyVI. Atleast its part Toyota, with a fully functional VVTi. Not maCam Pro only. :D

personally....I opt P2 over Proton.

I have 3 kancils at home and a saga......and none of the kancils give me the headaches.....saga is the only proton that trouble free ( minus the rusting problem )

Have owned wira 1.3gli.....and I feel like piad Rm43k for crap..used for 2 years....and dump it off from my garage.

So for first timer, buy Perodua ...dump proton for good....

Daihatsu is owned largely by Toyota, and its DVVT is actually the same as Toyota's VVTi.
Yeah, twin cam 16v with VVTi it is. :)

Kuala Lumpur, M
NO MORE PROTON!!!!
It'll probably hurt our country's economy..... which in turn hurts us all.... but for the sake of improvement. a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do!

srs, side impact bar, nice lookin car, reliability of perodua and dihatsu... for that price.... it's a competition come back!! good for consumers mah...

did anyone know that MYVI was actually launched in Geneva Motosports festival (Swiss)before it was launched here in Malaysia? usually nice concept cars are displayed there at this convention BUT MYVI was there.... dun play play! :)

The MyVi looks like a more attractive prospect rather than the TRM. For starters, yes, Proton has it's issues. It's many issues :p. There's also the modders view of it, since the MyVI technically has been out longer (as the Boon and Passo), there will be more parts for it (bodykits and what not) that don't look hideous (see: most bodykits for Gen2 :p). Whereas the TRM is a new car, and the only thing that people are somewhat familiar with is the Renault engine. I should say familiar to an extent, since Renault engines aren't really familiar to many at all in Malaysia hehehe. While I'm not one to stroke Perodua's cock, I think Daihatsu/Toyota has guided them well enough to secure the confidence in the buying public, whereas Proton still has trouble grasping it (no doubt there are those who are trying, but like DRB-HICOM's internal hanky-panky, it'll take awhile to get rid of the problems within).

So, I would say run off, and get that booking fee down for a MyVI. ONLY if you like the car though :). Don't go off and buy a car that you don't really like, because you'll never really like it.

I COULD put my money down on a myvi right now, but i'm going to go ahead with a Gen2, problems or not, I'm not fond of MyVI's form factor :p. The only one in that class I do like is the Jazz, and only because its leap and bounds better than most :p.
