Vios you may not be impress by performance wise but then reliability and quality at least better than proton to me somehow.
Well, vios been know for good fuel consumption and also long lasting. My friend's 1st gen vios till date is still running perfectly.

Fully serviced by UMW and travel daily from Klang to KL thru and flow for 10 years.

I have different opinion on what you said. P42 Vios is a good but P93 Vios onward things don't look so good especially at assembly and QC.

If want to buy then buy only P42 Vios not the P93 Vios.

How to actually know the difference in QC and assembly wise between those 2 models bro?
In other words that goes the same to newer model toyotas?

If you are like me, try to strip the interior of the P42 and P93 until you see the bare chassis then you analyse. I strip my neighbours 2 months old P93 because he complain got sound.

Well, do on your own risk....:smokin:

I saw a VW Polo Sedan on the road the other day, looks decent actually from the outside, but that engine is sad. Saw a Supramaniam S OTR last night for the first time, the rear lights look quite nice, the front look like outdated Audis with LED bijik-bijik.

Preve vs Supramaniam..let's see.. Supramaniam got more air bags, but its a heavier car and its a hatch.. but Preve is butt ugly, like really, ugly butt. Really confusing that Proton owns Lotus and they manage to design cars look like shit. Toyota is getting their design right with the new Vios, the new Honda Civic also look like shit next to Kia Cerato and Hyundai Elantra.

Front is shit.


Back is decent only.


Side, for god sakes look at the size of that rear light.

I won't say I love the front, but its OK. The rear looks a bit new Civic-ish.

As with ixeo's car buyer's guide. Buy the Vios! Won't go wrong with it.

Rear still have the previous model resemblance. Front is more like Prius direction of design. Something like Ford Fiesta and Focus design for the front of the vios.
