I've made up my mind. For RM300k i will sell my current house, buy a semi-D (its possible in Melaka), a used Merc W211 and an abandoned LO49 pajero i've set my eyes on. Now i can park all my rides/junk at one place and have space for DIY repairs OR i buy myself an AMG E55 ( there is something abt cars that does not make sense ), its old but can scare most cars on the road and tapau a 350Z while towing a trailer. I know i got a lot of change for maintenance and of course road tax....if only i have that 300k in the first place....
If...just if Proton oso decide to sell a lot tamer version of the Iriz R5, that will be a good car to compare the Yaris with.
On value, i dont see this car shoots up in price down the years..its rare but not 'hot'. Hot cars have a deep history and followers such as the evo and GTR.Its so deep that it deserve a chapter in history lesson tought in school. They are beyond reach for most but available for all meaning mass market. Some have padestrian-friendly model such at the R34/R33 GTT. This specific Yaris is beyond reach for almost all and not a mass market model. The padestrian model is too padestrian. Even if this car won multiple rally and a movie is made with the car..it just wont work.
That said, it still does not take away all the greatness this Yaris have and produce.
