[bo9agr]

I was in Kuala Lumpur - Malaysia for vacation, while I was there I saw some really nice cars ranging from small japanese tuned cars to top-marque tuned german beasts, here are some of the car's I saw either parked infront of the hotel I was in or roaming the streets of Kuala-Lumpur, enjoy.

Cars of Malaysia 10 (Last)

There's a guy who parks cars for you infront of a shopping mall (valet parking) but he's so prescise and accurate that he only leaves one cm or less than an inch between the car and the wall.

Man, I wish we could do licensse plates like that here in the U.S.

Well most of those cars were just taken one one particular street in Malaysia. Along Bukit Bintang Drive (Locally its Jalan Bukit Bintang) its sortta like the Rodeo Dr of Malaysia. As for the 3 series parked close to the wall, actually its done by the valet as parking is at a premium along that road, they have been known to screw up a few times.

The grey car with the plates BGA 9311 is actually a Proton Satria, its the national car well known for being crap on wheels but the cheapest in the market. it has a 1.3L or a 1.5L and is actually just a rebadge of the Mitsubishi Colt

Cars in Malaysia are BLOODY expensive due to the 300% tax imposed by the government to protect Proton the national car company. An M6 basic spec will set you back exactly 1M in malaysian ringgit back when 1ringgit = 3.8USD (do the Forex yourself), and 2M for a Gallardo.

Japanese cars are cheaper coz most of them are actually made in Thailand... hahaha

thanks for the info.

are you saying I have to pay the equivalent of 7.4 M $ for a Gallardo? now way.

still, there has to be a lot of very rich people there considering the pics posted bybo9agr

thanks for the useful input Manlas, you are 100% right, i didn't go away from that road, that's why i didn't see more cars.
and regarding that proton, it has a Japanese engine, but the car itself is assembled in Malaysia, and yes imported cars are expensive, too much expensive, they were showing some new models for Peugeot at a shopping mall there and a normal spec four door 407 will cost around 47000 $, that's too much.
