If I lived in Australia, I would rather eat the 20 grand than buy a Proton. But because we live in Malaysia, we've got to live with substandard crap thanks to Proton and thanks to the government.
Yup, this fact takes the cake all the time. Even if I could swallow the fact that its crap because its "cheap" and I can live with the stupid price because of the stupid taxes, but my TNT detonates when I think that not only are we paying "more" we get "less" than foreigners.Originally posted by Gh0sT@Jan 31 2005, 15:20
and to think that here in malaysia we have the lower spec model than those being tested overseas
That's sad... and I knew it quite long ago that Proton sells it much cheaperOriginally posted by si|verfish@Jan 31 2005, 11:46
Here's the rundown on why I hate Proton.
1) Shit overall quality.
2) Shit service.
3) Jackass tax structure which makes them more "affordable" compared to foreign cars.
4) Sold in other countries for less.
5) Sold in other countries better equiped.
Bravo Proton! Now I know how to do business. Sell shit products with less extras for a higher price to your own ppl. Sell shit products with a lot more extras for a lower price to others.
