Forget about the useless CPS. Noisy but not going anywhere.

sorry for looking like a noob

i saw a mudah ad says "NEW Proton Exora BOLD CVT 2012"

this CVT is it another name for CPS / CFE or a different category?

sorry again for noob question notworthy.gif

CVT is the gearbox.

CPS and CFE refers to the engine.

For the EB, only the CFE engine comes with the the CVT gearbox. So if it says CVT, then it is a CFE EB.

If you can afford to buy the CFE which is Exora Bold Premium (RM 80K) or Exora Prime (RM 88K), by all mean please choose the CFE
The CPS engine is not suitable for the Exora, and the 4AT auto transmission eat up most of the power.

CVT is a transmission that have variable gear ratios, and CVT only comes with the CFE version. CPS only carry 5speed manual or 4speed AT

Yes it worth the 6K upgrade

Go test drive now  biggrin.gif

tx bro. you are right, the 6k is worth the upgrade

just that those sellers in mudah make confusing claim until i don't know the price is for what spec

As we said just now...the CFE only for Exora Bold Premium(rm 80K) and Exora Prime(rm 88K)  smile.gif
If it state other than prime or premium then it is cps.
At the moment EB will not have great discount as the demand is high, the most if u lucky is RM2K but no free gift or anything..btw call him to confirm
Most of the time mudah.my seller put low price to attract buyer, then only tell the truth on the phone

Called the sale.the price is for cfe but no insurance

If otr 78.5k

Told you. Insurance is about RM1900. Add that up and you still ended up with RM80K thereabout.

If you presently have insurance NCB, that can be transferred to the new car for some saving. Doesn't matter whether you buy from this guy or from Proton direct.

well, at least still lower than 80k

proton pricing pdf for EB is here

http://www.proton-edar.com.my/pdf/exora/EX...larMalaysia.pdf

now, referring to the accessories package worth RM4,310...
ACCESSORIES PACKAGE
COIL MAT --> I hate proton's ugly coil mats, rather buy proper carpets myself and put in the car
SAFETY KIT --> what is the safety kit? again, I can buy my own
BOOT ORGANIZER --> come on now, I can live without this or buy my own
NUMBER PLATE HOLDER --> seriously? the standard car doesn't come with a number plate holder?
TINT FILM --> rather install my own tint
DOOR VISOR --> don't need this
MULTIPURPOSE CONTAINER --> again, I can buy my own
NAVIGATOR --> this is the worst one, I rather use my existing garmin unit

So, can I buy an EB CFE Premium Metallic for RM 73,425.00 + insurance premium RM2,277.00 = RM75.7k? I rather not get their accessories package lah.
*
can you buy the car w/o the accessories?


Added on May 31, 2012, 11:08 pmwant to know for the CFE version, how is the aircond? can the most back seater feel cool ?

i order elegance brown colour...got it after 5 week...as i know the waiting list for EB now are about 2 month for current order
as the engine supply problem because of preve lauching. if your SA promise you 2 week... i do think so hahaha blink.gif 

loan take about 3 days can approve...then wait for proton to allocate the car...if the car are ready ask you SA for engine
and chasis no...confirm it by calling i care. then wait for logistic for delivery to SA around 2-3 days or maybe for week.

thats my experience...hope help you... biggrin.gif

Why must ask sa to confirm chassis and engine no?


Added on June 2, 2012, 6:48 pmBtw warranty is how long? I heard forumer said 5 years.the sa said 3 years

now i know first hand. because before this when going through karak and also grik.. never did experience that type of engine braking... (very strong) probably because the turns are tighter and u play with the brake more.. somebody told me engine braking is activated when it detects the gradient plus u use the brake.. u dont use then it will not activate ..
*
Don't understand this engine braking

Does it mean it will slow down the car without having press brake?
