New Toyota Vios Launch Malaysia

[jay_graphic]

i agree with most of the people...
the new look of vios is really disappointed... :(

a cheap wira looks better!!! haha...:)

but i do like the old vios... when put in some body kits and a big sport rims... nice maa...

-azzurious- tehehehe

 

[grvybaby]

chill grvybaby.. no on is flaming here.. we are all having a calm peace discussion, until the hippo arrives.. haha..

yeah.. but the rear, to me it look more like a waja than the new camry..

aiizzz... donno lah..

well, looks like waja ar? hrm... i don't think Japanese ppl will think of a car which look like M'sian car. M'sian cars are mostly "CUT" "EDIT" "PASTE" i think i can say, almost ALL of it. *laughs*

anyways, i still find that when 'one' to see the car, the person will put a not-so-want-to-hear comment. but when one to own the car, the person will definitely like the car very much and support in every way.

I COME IN PEACE!!! cheers. just my point of view here. grOoooVy

new camry..squeeze a bit and u get new vios...half price...keskeskeskes.. :slug:

Squeeze? Seems kind of harsh. You can get those who have never driven before to help you with that. Buy a camry and leave the car with the person for a month and ask him to drive it everyday. With much luck, he might just help you minimize the size here and there. :P

Im surprised that even a thread like this can get some blood boiling.


The wonders on modern individuality.......

 

[Throttle]

Never really been a fan of Vios....

I just hate centered gauges on the d/board. No matter what kind a car it is.

 

[creamsoda]

as far i know this is open forum, so i will post whatever i like about the new vios.

i saw it yesterday on the road and i was like ahh.. its defenatly not my taste, i mean they could come up with better looks; despite this is like what? the 3rd generation of vios? anyhow.. i dun like any car with all the meters in the centre.. i think its driver's space and should be there not in the centre of the dash.

the new vios grill looks weird, if i would buy this car i think defenatly need to get the front n back bumpers with custom bodykit etc.. cos it dosnt look right somehow..

one more thing i think its too much plastic... i mean i dun think it will stand impact...

for those who thinks its better than wira i think u better think again...

this is what i think and my opinion...

 

[QuickRide]

Let me stop this hot boiling topic.

All cars are good. All cars and I mean all cars.

There. Cased settled. NO MORE QUARRELING PEOPLE :D

i shall rephrase now :D

If you think the car is good then keep promote it.
If you think the car is bad then shut-up and diam diam dont say anything about it to the public(to prevent conflicts)
If you like the car you buy it
If you dont like the car dont even look at it (later sakit mata -.-")
Last but not least

If you think i'm talkng crap.. Grats.. You've just wasted 15 seconds of your life reading somewhat useless posted by me.

Cheers :D

Actually not true. Even one model of Ferarri has a notorious problem of parts falling off, but one thing I agree is that it is unnecessary to call someone ugly face when this is a discussion about cars.

Btw the Vios is called Yaris sedan in other countries, that is why it looks so similar to the Yaris. Just like Gen 2 and Persona, which is why I wonder they don't call it Gen 2 sedan. Actually you can use Yaris bodykits for the Vios. In Bangkok the Yaris is everywhere, even more popular than the Jazz and they do have very nice Yaris cars there with tasteful bodykits. One of the reason why it is popular there is because of the price also, only around RM60k compared to RM90k here.

 

[BlackSamurai]

RM90K for a 1.5L small family sedan? our money getting smaller or they haven't settle the AFTA tax thing?

 

[Danny]

our salary is peanuts compared to the cost of living.

In other first world countries $2000-3000 (of their currency) graduate salary is sufficient to buy a house and a car. Eg. AUD$2000 salary but a subaru imprezza only costs AUD$30+k. For us, RM$2000 but a subaru impreza costs RM$250k.

 

[QuickRide]

Thats because of import tax. Other wise cost would be much much much lower dont you agree? Imagine the mercedes SLR McClaren without the import tax. current price is 6m-7m with import tax am I right? Take away the 200% import and you'll get the price.

We're still a developing country as well. This means that our average income will not match the well developed countries.

Dollar for dollar it matches ie. here RM2k, other places.. S$2000, or AUD$2000 or UK$2000, the only thing it doesn't match is the cost of living in proportion to the salary.

Malaysia
RM2k salary BMW RM250k Terrace House in PJ RM400k
Australia
AUD$2k salary BMW AUD$40-50k Terrace house in Queensland AUD$150-200k

I always thought that developing countries by right should have lower cost of living but ours is higher. For a person staying in KL nothing lower than a 5 figure salary is enough for a decent house and car.

Also I think our country has the highest amount of tolls. The general idea of the toll system is to pay for the road, but ours even after paying for the roads the tolls not only continued to exist but even increased in price as well as increased in the number of potholes. If you drive to Thailand before there is not a single toll from the border all the way to Bangkok and no potholes whatsoever.

Certain things here are cheaper though, road tax for cars below 1.6litre only RM90.

 

[QuickRide]

But imported cars are still way too expensive because of the AP. Wish government would lower the darn AP.
