exactly... rusty racer is misguiding u... i hv tested premio... its not under powered at all... it has a wonderful acceleration evn in the 1.5 F grade... so thts out...
secondly, resale is quite ok with premio...
thirdly, economy wd b slightly on the higher side as 1.3L gli, bt still its ok...
fourthly, its much much safer than gli and wen u sit inside u hv tht feeling of comfort and safety...
above all, with premio u enter n all new class of luxury... remember a premio owner wd never revert bak to corolla as long as his pocket permits... bcz every new shape of premio costs double the old if u want to upgrade...
simply if u want a ZERO METER thing, thn go fr gli, otherwise no other point abt gli can beat premio...
