Hi guys, total car noob here so gonna need sifu's to help... What's the difference (performance, problems, etc) between the gen 2 and the persona... because i oni know that persona has a bigger boot...

also, the persona is using the IAFM engine, while the gen 2 is using the CPS engine right? What's the difference between this two. Since both around the same price, is there alot of difference between the 2 engines?

and lastly, which is better choice? cause my budget is nearer to 50k... the B-line persona is around there.... Thanks thanks.

first of all, since your budget is nearer to 50k, dont bother to stretch another ~10k for Gen2 CPS... too much... unless u got a lot of extra money and willing (and capable) to stretch your budget after all...

as for the IAFM and CPS difference, IAFM is Campro basic + new intake module fixing the torque dip... that's all... while CPS it got variable valve lift boosting the performance another 15hp...

problems, engine wise (CPS, i dont know IAFM) so far no problem with mine though it only aged 1year and 4 month... other parts problem... a few, but nothing serious... the worse is the splash shield issue at high speed... Performance, more than what I expected from a Proton especially the handling...  thumbup.gif

FC wise, since my right foot is pretty much welded to the floor, people will see my car's FC is off the roof. but at one time of my test, CPS with RON97 Primax3 manage to get 5.5L/100km on 100% highway maintained at ~3100RPM @ 110km/h with cruise control... the worst could be 20sen/km (old pricing of RON95 @ RM1.80/L)

I dont drive IAFM so I dont know anything about it other than a little bit technical stuff.

haha kk thanks... need to research somemore la, cause if gen2 has less problems than persona, might as well pay abit more, better in the long run... cause i search the car problem, thread... persona like quite abit of problems (ECU thing)
