is tat 2.0 fc? i ask 1 noob question ya, if a 2.0 car drive at 200km/h 3000 rpm than a 1.6 car driving 200km/h at 4000rpm, means the 2.0L car save more petrol? this is what normal ppl will say..

Yupp..that's correct. In this case i believe, impatience is not an issue if proton deliver the car according to the first come first serve basis..but unfortunately, the late come first serve basis also applies  sweat.gif This will creates displeasure & impatience for the early birds

agree. why not just practise 1st come 1st serve. if colour is an issue, so why we need to choose colour when making a booking during pre launch period although cant see a real colour on car. even in brochure. why?

I pre-booked the car during Proton power of 1 and Bukit Jalil...and I theoretically I got the car already, but I let go the car to someone else.

I think the delay is expected and I don't think Proton will setup additional production line for the initial surge. They as other manufacturing company will have projection and estimation before setting up the production line. Unless they underestimate the response. Furthermore it is not good to rush the production beyond their limit. I believe they have target time for a single car and to its not wise to reduce the target time as it will jeopardize the quality aspect.

ok la at least you got the car. colour 2nd issue. me book since 14 march, habuk pun tak nampak. SA just keep silent and stupidly give me a stupid reason.

Doesn't it depend on the efficiency curve though? As in, what's the level that the car will deliver the best amount of torque at the rpm it produces? Lower rpm doesn't necessarily yield a better Fuel Efficiency.

that would mean,

2.0 engine running at 3000RPM = 6 intake stroke per second
1.6 engine running at 4000RPM = 8 intake stroke per second

so unless we know how much fuel is required for every intake stroke for both engine, we can never know which engine is more fuel efficient at that speed & rpm & not to forget cd value & weight also play major factor to this question

I believe it is still first come first serve basis. What ever we say over here about the cable,fiber optic, Tan Sri etc are mere hearsay and speculation, nothing more.

As I said previously, maybe the reason somebody got their car early because someone let go the car. I've given my example where I let go the car and someone down the line got it since he wanted the same colour. There is not cable, connection or Tan Sri here.

Regarding the production, I strongly believe the painting process goes batch by batch. Once setting is for black, Proton will produce a lot of blacks (more than the demand) before changing the colours. Proton can't simply change the colour setting between cars. They have to change between certain lot number.

This is happen to all other manufacturers. Last time, I've visited BMW factory at Munchen, they are doing the same for the painting procedure.

That is the reason some SAs will say, if you want to get cars quickly, don't specify the colour. In this case, whenever they have colour that doesnt belong to anyone, you can take the car.

i think it depends also.. but mostly car fuel efficiency is highest around 80-100km/h according to some equation, so i also think high speed but low rpm means lower FC but alot of ppl owes say like tat, i felt like they are no brainer biggrin.gif

Soft TT where? The people here wanna do at the SG place. Which is where again?
THE BLUE LAGOON VERY NICE LIAO! MAKE ME FEEL LIKE I'M AT A LAGOON!

I can haz teh tarik too?
BLUE IS NICER!

C'mon man, free teh tarik ftw!
So heat rejection is good, but in terms of visibility, can't really do the nasty in the car lah. Demmit. There goes my plans laugh.gif
Same here. Just got in touch with my SA - he said everything is in progress. Proton really messed up the delivery this time round la. Considering your car now...but no offence - I just can't take the centre console. It's too...ergh. Really can't take it.
[/quote]

The main problem is Proton did not anticipate the high number of bookings. They should have known better. Sudden spike in demand, and they can't meet it. Very poor prep imo. The S&M team should have a circular to all branches and dealers stating that there will be delays. Instruct all SA's to get in touch with their respective clients mentioning that there will be delays. With a valid reason. Not just keep mum and keep everyone on edge.

They don't have to rush the production. They should have anticipated the market better (heck, send someone into forums like this to gauge the market). Failing which, they should have kept all prospective buyers, and more importantly, pre-bookers in the loop.

Above all, the should value us pre-bookers because we are their vanguard. How many flames have we quelled? How many unbelievers have we turned? Instead of prioritising the pre-bookers, they lump us together with the others.

Tell me then, what's the point of us pre-booking the car, if we aren't able to get it sooner? I don't give two fucuks if some dato/tan sri/tun gets the car first due to connections. What I wanna know is, what the heck is the bloody delay, and why aren't we being updated. Don't blame the SA - blame the people who should have given them training.

Pre-bookers mostly decided to put their faith in Proton - again. Don't let that faith waver. I'm beginning to wonder if it's even worth it anymore. A good car is one thing - horrible service is another.

My faith is wavering.

[/rant]

K. Rant mode off. God. I'm still annoyed though.
I like the siggy too biggrin.gif Lol. Wayyyy OT. Not to mention we might just incite some war here.
So the Jalan Ampang one is dealer then? Did you get any freebies? I almost made my booking there, but the guy was kinda lansi-ish. Decided against it.
Mine is wireless bro cool2.gif
EDIT: OMG. Just got another text from my SA. Why the heck is getting a loan so hard back in Malaysia? Dammit. Things were so much easier back in UK. Can I use my credit history there to get me a god damned loan here? Bloody hell. No wonder people who come back wanna ciao like they got their assess on fire. Fuming. Fucuk this shit man. What the hell. Haih.
