Even if you've coated it with Sierra Glow or PPS, you still need to wash your car but not as often as without SG or PPS.. I'm driving a Black Forte (trust me, black is no better than White cry.gif ) I used to wash my car twice a week, but with SG, now I only wash once a week..

It is up to you to take care of your car, like if you notice there's some greasy/oily stain on your car, or bird droppings etc, make sure you clean it off within 24 hours..

These is one of the reasons you think that everybody is bashing you. We don't bash the flamers as much as the flame-baiter. Those gets it worse. This is a fan boy thread, just like the iphone and blackberry threads. Fanboyism will be around and if you bait them, you are just going to be the one on the receiving end of the bashing.

People then start complaining that they can't have a proper discussion since they can't say anything bad about the topic. You can, you just can't do it in their fan-boy topic. We don't have individual threads for each car maker, therefore I allow a 'fan-boy' topic for each car for them to chat instead of redirecting it to kopitiam.

It will take a while for them to get over all your previous replies and I can see that you have just been reporting on every minor (compared to your previous post) offensive reply that they are redirecting to you.

Like I said to the person before you who got the short end of the stick for baiting fanboys. Trying doing the same thing in the iphone topic and you'd get the same treatment from them. It's the same thing in every forum (except maybe for those paid sites with paid moderators that are on duty 24/7).

Only certain birds? I thought they are all corrosive since birds excrete both urine and faeces together (birds can only pee and poo at the same time) unless I got it wrong about it being applicable to ALL birds. It's the urine that is corrosive and not the poo.

You know how old KIA is???
That's 67 years. Count it. It's only the last 2 years KIA finally made significant impact in overseas market with the Forte...mainly thanks to the Audi Designer. Too bad you only own Proton's for the last 13 years...(why you keep buying Proton if you hate it so much??, if you can afford 20k sound system, surely a Forte is not a problem for you!!!  whistling.gif ) If you have own any other cars, you'll realized all cars have problems. And yeah, i have owned a KIA before.  whistling.gif

bro you should read more about kia in Wiki la http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kia_Motors

no doubt kia founded in 1944 but that time only doing steel tubing and bicycle parts by hand,

The company opened its first integrated automotive assembly plant in 1973, that is for assembly only, not building car also (just like Naza), no double they can learn how to assembly a car but not building/manufacture a car.

At 1986, they partnership with ford and produce severer Mazda (Ford own Mazda) and Ford car. Just like porton at 1985 partnership with mitsu and produce saga, iswara and wira. The so called 90% local manufacturer WAJA onli launch in late 90s.

if not mistaken, they only start building their own car in 90s but got bankruptcy due to 1997 crisis. They really come from a hard way, not like our proton, being pampered and protected.

I would said, Kia and Proton almost start at the same time, but look at today's stand. Proton still being pampered and protected buy Kia is like 10 years ahead (or maybe more?)

Worst is Proton did not go forward but goes backward to 1985 and doing re-badge again for the Inspira...to boost the sales? to regain reputation? However this move benefit us as consumer to pay less 20-30k in getting this mitsu lancer

^Good info, but I got it 1 step later..... With your reply, it is clearly stated that :
1. our mod allow certain parties to do personal insults while some cannot.
2. our mod allow fake info from these parties.

On the side note, even the kiasulangs also buying Forte if were compare to the T and H..... So, is Forte a bad car?

Yup, me and a few of the White Forte owner will need to wash it frequently even we did PPS and SG. Maintenance is a must to make your car brand new wink.gif

Your mod is not a full time mod and action will be taken, even though it might not be on the same day or even the same week. There are no full time mods at lowyat and most of us only can do this at our spare time. I only had time to reply your bird dropping message before I had to go out for a lunch meeting. Action will be taken.

I'm not here to verify every single bit of information. That is not my job or any moderators job otherwise we will enforce moderator preview before posting and this forum will crawl at a snails pace if the moderators have to view every post before allowing it.

I have not even replied to your question before you implied the above statement which was totally uncalled for. This only enforces the views that others have upon you and that you are only here to disrupt the forum. My job is to ensure that I don't have people like you disrupting the forum. All reports are taken into consideration and action will be taken. Submitting a report does not come with a SLA that binds me to take action within certain number of minutes/hours/days/weeks. I do what and when I can.

Sometimes the sa don't have the color u want in stock. So they say things to make u get another color, which ironically is in stick lol.

I have the white forte and while it easier to get dirty, u don't have to wash it every 2 days. One tip is to carry those bulu ayam in ur car booth. Easily clean the dirt off ur car.

Miserably, I have to admit to your points. Both of my wife and myself be the Proton car owner for more than 10 years, I do not feel the pride and glory to the fact of Malaysia producing our nation car, but I only feel the pains of government protectionism:
1. Nation car caused other car brands much expensive by raising the taxes of Proton rivals. Malaysian were suffered with extra burden to the car loan.
2. Government pour in the money (our taxes money!) to help up Proton, which conversely should use the money to develop the country, or use it in such a way to really benefit the people.
3. Seriously impacted Malaysia image as not actualize the ASEAN Free Trade Agreement (AFTA).

Probably, revoke such protectionism will be the only way to make Proton getting more aggressive and competitive, and make us proud of our nation car.
