Majority of us got 10 reasons to buy local crap. | everything comes with its advantages and disadvantages - everyone of us got 'unique-world' in terms of available money, time, friend, access to workshops etc. so, decision of purchase (local / imported 660 etc.) will have different impact on individual basis. | We do learn from experiences, no doubt expensive and complex car in Pakistan will eventually depreciate more as 3rd class parts and mechanics will make it crap much sooner than locally-newly-built-craps. Mehran is so successful as it got nothing you should worry about ... Front bumper of mehran is less then 1000 rupees while used-front bumper of Passo may cost you 10,000 rupees. at the end of the day, if one 'individual' is able to pay 10k to enjoy japanese ride - This case is good for him, not for whom who wants to have car maintenance as low as of Honda-CD70. | One who can compromise of safety, features, comfort is equally satisfied with local made cars.
