Has anyone tried these cars before? I know that the Protons are get a lot of criticism especially people from their own country but I always wonder why they do there aren't that many Islamic car manufacturers around the world. I mean, imagine if there's a car that have a Qur'an Player you can play any Surah you want with selected reciters + Lectures from Scholars of Islam. How awesome would that be? and a Honk that sounds like 'Astaghfirullahalzim'.
all the cars above have chassis specs from already existing cars made by already well established no Muslim companies... in most cases, they're just rebranded models of already defunct and "no longer manufactured in the west" cars.
So uhm, why would I buy a car made by a Muslim company? Why indeed...
It's a bit like me choosing to buy a horse with flea issues from a Muslim trader instead of a well to do steed from a non Muslim. Sorry, but that's the bottom line for me.
And Tyrion does have a valid point - Muslims don't originate anything these days, we imitate instead, and even at that - the Japs are kicking our behinds...
...and the Chinese are kicking theirs.
Where do the Muslims sit amongst these two? they don't. We aren't even worth a consideration in that dept. Sorry to hurt anyones feelings but it is what it is.
I mean, come on - even Hamas' rockets are nothing more than glorified fire works repackaged for grown men. Sheesh.
