Resale value.....is all you care?

This is a Toyota Vios.



and this is the Vios TRD Sportivo.



The TRD Sportivo variant comes with a high revving 2 litre turbocharged engine, 4-1 exhaust manifold, forged pistons, and strenghten valve pulleys........................NOOOOO.
Its just a Vios G with bodykit.

and it cost a whopping 20k more than the standard Vios, just for the bodykit, leather interior, "lightweight" 15 inch rims and sports suspension kit. DAMN.

Toyota has been the most preferred brand by Chinese in Malaysia.....I dont know why.
Well according to my friend, who's family have all 3 categories of Toyota: Vios, Altis and Camry:
1. Vios is reliable car and got more wow factor compared to Proton.
2. Altis are for middle age people, a practical family ride.
3. Camry are for status-oriented unkers. To them, driving a Camry means you're not left out from the rich community.
4. Most importantly, Toyota have higher resale value compared to other cars.

All I can say.......shit these people are tasteless!

Sorry, Im the type that buy car to enjoy it, not when selling it! Its not a property nor an asset. Its a liability and have always been.

.......and I hate it when these people try comfort themselves by saying buying a cheap car will no hurt their wallet much, if get into accident will not sakit-hati much. Shit they're just poor and refuse to admit it!

Ok my rant for today. Kthxbai.
