For the majority of Malaysian, people will try to stay away from Proton if they can afford a 80k car.  tongue.gif
Proton happily aiming 4000units monthly of Preve... Let's see thumbup.gif

With Bank Negara's strict ruling on auto loans affecting mostly the lower income group, it will be good to see how many units of the Pariawei they manage to sell. No use with having strong demand when banks won't approve the bloody loans. Stupid policy IMO. Grinding the nation to a halt.

Actually no need to compare with VW.. just compare it with CBU Getz interior/finishing is enuf.
The door doesn't sound solid bcoz the rubber seals used is much thinner then the Getz.
The door handle feels like it cud break at anytime. The finishing at the back of the front seats are horid. (no hook summore!)
It really makes me wonder if the interior of this car is made in korea..more like its made in msia.  hmm.gif

However, the engine bay was up to standard. All the wires/connections are seal. No naked wires were found.
The aircond hose stretch until outside/below the bay & the car battery is easily acessible.

And I thought ppl said Hyundai quality is much better than Kia?

hehe, i think no need to prove it.

The moment i open the door, ahem it tells me everythng.

i cant see any tag made in malaysia. i could oni feel the touch and texture is similar like potong made.

Not sure about the 4 speed forte, cuz 1st batch is CBU rite!

Haha, but the problem is, the material quality feel the same when i sat in elantra. So disappointed.

The elantra LCD navi i suspect is china made.

I don't think you understand much about Naza's purported CKD style. There's hardly any local content, the parts are shipped directly from SK as a CKD pack with most of the items already fixed/wired up, i.e, engine/tranny etc. There's no discernible difference in material quality between the first batch CBU and current "CKD". If there are any material changes they are made at SK and not here...

Actually, I would be happy if they did manufacture certain parts locally like headlamps, taillamps etc cos right now, the blardy headlamps cost RM900++ a piece, that's even more expensive than the Civic's.
