went to the serdang proton shop. they have test unit and display unit there. didn't go for the test drive but i have checked out the display unit. my views... - still have the *plastical free* of proton interior. but looks better than the other proton models - room space is quite decent. their brochure compares preve to forte, vios and city. around the same size - Luggage area is huge! - seats are not so comfy - the metal works felt more solid than the other proton models

Test drive tips from mat79  - Switch to S mode. - Don't rev more than 4k rpm - Use paddle shifter or cvt. - Turn of ESC & traction control. - Don't crash. If you crash, don't blame it on me.

To those ppl, the rear looks a lot nicer in actual view rather looking from picture, go see it yourself with your own eyes please... If Sapphire Version coming soon, i actually prefer that one le... but how much will it cost more le?
