Why din anyone mentioned about the Lancer here? Fully imported from Japan, cheaper then the Civic (performance on par?)
Civic > Lancer > Inspira?
I think the Lancer fits in that grey area.

the discussion is about local content...lancer is a different class, assembled by japanese and fitted with japan parts..if you dont believe, please ask the lancer owners..let the story you why their CBU car is far superior

Much better car then the fail copy Inspira for sure bro.

I heard the Lancer engine is different form Inspira?

Also Lancer have the famous RISE chassis/body that protects the occupant right? Doubt inspira have that.

on paper should be the same cos both MIVEC engine. Did not see Inspira advertise about it.. althought the Preve has RESS body..not sure its up to par with the RISE or not...

sorry off topic.

Sorry Offtopic abit :

Do you mean to say Inspira is actually using Proton's RESS body just liek Preve?

So the Chassis/Body for Inspira is produced by Proton and not by Mitsu lah?  doh.gif

Oh since INspira didnt advertise MIVEC... looks suspicious bro... you think they are not using MIVEC and probably using CAMPRO instead? You know to save cost and get that 75% local content?

Cause impossible the car using same engine, same body, same transmission... and so much price difference right?  hmm.gif

I just checked....Inspira DID mention about MIVEC and RISE....looks like its from the Mitsu.

Price difference is tax issue...the Lancer cost around RM77k in Labuan haha

well, market doesnt see the two products as same.

that is why, its so important to build ur brand.

once u got brand, ur pricing is better.

if  p1 ran as a business rather than as a national icon+songlap facility, it would smoke all the foreign brands.

I THORtaly agree...

I would really love to see a change in the mgmt of p1, the national car maker really used to be our national pride at one point in time. Hopefully one day in the future ppl will really be a PROUD owner of a p1 car.
