DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS. i think when we start to ignore them, they will eventually gone vios got technology WOW!

GUess what, all car are crappy, toyota for me is crappy, perodua is crappy, proton is crappy, lamborghini is crappy, bmw is crappy, they produce CO2 for fcuk sake. now, i need to buy a bicycle and cycle from putrajaya to shah alam.

*sarcasm intended.

this what my finding after testdrive today

1). yes u can, even u still can use paddle shifter while in D or S mode. Just when in S mode the car are more
aggressive
2). S mode not manual, this car is CVT, even u drag till 5k RPM the car will switch the virtual gear by self
3). No manual and auto again please refer 1st answer

I have an open mind and that's why i'm selling of my vios for a Preve...is that open minded enough for you? I don't think anyone here is saying that Preve or other protons are perfect...so why the fuss about proton being crappy? Vios belting became f***ing noisy after a month!! how about that? Wasting time arguing with you

let's not bash each others ride la guys
each people hv their own preference, not all people hv same taste




perhaps u can investigate, with credible evidence and create a campaign to show the public not to buy proton.

this national car project (proton, perodua and few other 'national' car assembler) exist because gov want Malaysian to afford a car, that's it, simple as that. let aside the insider/political issues. at first we all bought because cheap la, what else.. then sadly proton & vendor hv moral issues resulting bad product. of course cannot blame buyer. but now proton improved a lot, and offer a better car. that's why we, i, and others' support.

unless you're 1% of the country, but u should try proton, their handling is top of the class for their price

second here, waja 2001 clocking at 338,000km and still doing 630km for a full tank, eat that. 630km / 52L, 12km / L

yeah, not the best, but still getting like this on RON 95, with RON 97 i can easily get 680 to 700km

i agree with you...we get a car based on our own affordability... no point condemning

yup. By pressing to 2,000rpm from standstill, the "lag" isn't that apparent. Just have to find the sweet spot of it.

this thread.. is like f'ing warzone...

for FC...almost same as mine..full tank can get 650km with ron95...ron97 dunno....

yeah,thats the point-its actualy quit norm to see that the rim is still intact,-giving the impact only affecting certain parts which most probable the undercarriage like lower arm,drive-shaft,gearbox thats already broken apart

bashers here in fnf & /k surely never endure/saw such eksiden right?deswai thinking if hit divider/kerb/pothole,surely must confirm the rims also got impact?


take a look at this 599 eksiden--can u spot the rear tire,its already misaligned isn't it?but the tire&rim still in good shape,right?

the rear sport rim is actually still intact in good shape ,but the lower-arm/drive shaft already broken apart causing the tyre to misaligned

True that.. my bro always laughs at how much my Dub is sipping fuel.

seriously bro ????

you really think is because gov want malaysian to afford a car ??????


if gov really think that way all they need to do is abolish the AP and the import tax let see how proton survive


or should i say without proton/AP/import tax everyone can effort honda/toyota/nissan

Lol...are you serious? If not for GOV wanna protect Proton, we could have own a Camry for half the price now. Nothing against Proton, good car, but will continue boycott because of this reason.

sometimes the rim looks intact.. but actually not.. if you bring to balancing.. it will not center anymore.. will goyang2.. have to ketuk back or if cannot have to throw all together.. you can bengkok the rim quite easily if you langgar curb actually....

atleast ur DUB are chicks magnet

EXACTLY BRO! Well said.

perghhhhh the legendary basher kevin23 already kambing... all hail... the most powderful 'mindless' basher is here... u will all butthurt from his pointless bashing..

We had to admit Proton did not prepare well for this so called global car.
I'm open minded to accept any criticism but,
"Another piece of crap from Proton"

You call this constructive criticism for improvement?

Another example,
If your mum's cooking is crappy, so you tell your mum "Mum, your cooking is crappy." is this constructive?

I test drove this car a few days ago and am not impressive with it, i immediately wrote a feedback to Proton and they did reply that they will pass it to the relevant department. How true is it and whether they will do anything, i don't know. But i'd tried my best. If they don't listen, it's their own loss.
