my SA just told me i cant get my car this week coz early month tanjung malim will deliver preve for sabah sarawak buyers... wth???

yalo... taichi... i think the staffs are just too lazy la... stupid one.. but my SA din really taichi la, he just say normally is like that cos we east msia, shipping also need time ma.. he just tell me around May will come, but cannot say exact date. so its normal, but i think proton should distribute the car earlier la before launch, poor planning and execution, flawed startup leads to later complication.

I got cash rebate n full tank, I didn't want the rest.

Bout the car, the welding spot is quite noticeable.

It's an eye sore but not all door same, that's the good news. The cvt whining is noticeable but still ok to me

Folding mirror is ok for mine, the rest u guys already know

Nowadays with BNM being more strict than usual I think that scenario won't happen again. Just make sure when you receive your agreement by then check the clause of whether the rate is fix or not.

Aiyo so eventful with invaders helping to move the thread faster. I so appreciate them spend time to study things in Preve thread. And also let us know about their mighty impressive CBU Thai ride.

About Preve, why u guys say no red? I just let go a red yesterday. Insisted on my white.

Just wanna hijack this thread for a while This is how Exora Bold fared in 0-100 & quarter mile :

0-10 km/h: 0.99 sec
0-20 km/h: 1.58 sec
0-30 km/h: 2.23 sec
0-40 km/h: 3.00 sec
0-50 km/h: 3.88 sec
0-60 km/h: 4.90 sec
0-70 km/h: 6.04 sec
0-80 km/h: 7.38 sec
0-90 km/h: 8.89 sec
0-100 km/h: 10.58 sec
0-110 km/h: 12.51 sec
0-120 km/h: 14.72 sec
0-130 km/h: 17.28 sec

60': 3.11 sec @ 39.0 km/h
330': 7.68 sec @ 80.8 km/h
1/8 mi: 11.50 sec @ 104.0 km/h
1000': 14.79 sec @ 119.1 km/h
1/4 mi: 17.57 sec @ 130.7 km/h

I put in these figures into an Excel to calculate the horsepower. For aerodynamic drag, I assume Exora Bold has coefficient drag of 0.33 & frontal area of 27 square feet. Vehicle weight + my weight = 1555kg.

Peak HP is 111.76. Assuming 18% power loss at transmission, engine hp would be about 136.29hp, within Proton's spec of 138hp, if u take 2-3% calculation error margin.

If my findings are true, and Preve's ECU map is at least as good as Exora Bold, this is good news for all Preve owners as Preve is 146kg lighter than Exora. 0-100 of 9.6 second may look conservative, I believe Preve can do 0-100 below 9 seconds. Probably one of the fastest sub RM80K sedan here

PS : Sorry no torque values as I cannot log RPM, and no dyno test as I'm on tight budget this month

I'm holding off the poll for a bit
Sabahan! Which part? Man, I haven't been back in years.
If we do get in touch with proton, and they do give us their blessings, then we could put the proton logo. Or even add a whole new "endorsed" to it. or add official. Something along those lines

dares not allowed to go out. He needs to hold the fort. While the rest of us go gallivanting
