Went to book my white EB Std yesterday, Proton is offering RM988 rebate for EB Std until 31 Mar 13. Free gift from the agent includes:
- 5 yrs US tinted windows
- Full tank
- Spoiler with paint
- DVD players
- Window visors
- Reverse censor

Good deal? And my loan interest rate @ 2.74

I was planning to buy EB after election, but went for a test-drive and found out got RM988 rebate until 31 Mar 2013, not sure there will be another promo like this so I just grab it. I'm from Ipoh and I bought it from Mulia Persona, they have a very good reputation. Other dealers I went only offer tinted and RM50 fuel.

yes, 2k discount but for year make 2012 and I prefer 2013. nice rate @ 2.55%!!..

I think the car itself is the same, I was hoping maybe the problem found in earlier batches could be rectify in later batches. I think 2012 is the 1st batch but 2k rebate is alot... even when you resell it in the future, you won't get 2k extra for the different of 1 year make so 2k rebate is the best deal! add in the 988 = 2988... that's alot... now I'm a little sad why I don't take 2012 car

Any EB owners from Ipoh area? I'm also looking for original used (with good condition) Exora 16" sports rims, anyone looking to sell their original EXora 16" sports rims pls pm me? thanks

Emm.. because it's cheaper and want it to look like original CFE Bold Premium (from the exterior at least). I estimated used 16" Exora rims to be around RM500-RM600. If new 16" rims with nice design, it could cost up to 1k and above.

Price I saw from mudah.my, check this out... http://www.mudah.my/li?ca=6_s&id=227832&sp=1&th=1

yes, CPS is 15"... only new Exora Bold CFE Standard and Premium uses 16"... not sure about Prime.
Correct me if I'm wrong

received my EB std yesterday, noticed there is this burned smell everytime i exited from the car, is there something wrong?

and the sound of the blower when i off the engine, sometimes it hummed for a few minutes, other time it just quiet. am i the only one with this condition?

thx for feedback!

whaha.. i want to wash my EB everyday! in fact i'm enjoying it... i only wipe side, rear and front with dampen cloth but definately not the roof maybe i'll wash the roof once a week or so, or send to carwash.

I'm one proud owner of Exora Bold ... so far pretty satisfied with its performance vs price ratio!

anyone want to sell his original EB 16" sports rim (with good condition) here? I'm looking for one.

I was shopping around for curtain as well, saw this in Mr. DIY @RM35 for 2 pcs. There are afew sizes available, namely M, L and XL if i remember correctly. Do update us with pics after installation.

Anyone can enlighten us on the SAT function? When do we use this SAT function?
For me, my SAT function is always ON, not sure what's the difference compared to normal D. Does it save petrol or drink petrol?

And since I'm still new to my EB and 1st time MPV owner, I can't seem to find the trigger (at the driver seat) to open the rear door (I'm sure sedan car has it). Does EB comes with one?

And is it normal for the rear wiper to wipe by itself during rain coz I encountered this yesterday and I'm sure I checked it is off twice and didn't accidentally on it?

You have to check it out yourself I'm afraid but there are measurements on the packing for each sizes. I can only go and check during the weekend.

Same like mine, solid white and reg end of March. What other free gift u got other than the RM988 rebate, tinted and petrol?

i'm wondering if all these modifications made to the bold will void the warrenty or not... u guys seem to do alot of modifications.

I never read the manual, in fact i don't have time for it. my odo meter showing 400+ km, plan to travel outstation, and by the time i get back to my hometown it should exceed the 1k service. will proton void my free 1k service? pls advice.

Just filled up my petrol for the 2nd time. Does my calculation below correct? This is my conservative way to calculate FC..

Amt ODO Distance RM/liter
1st refill RM91.75 274km - -
2nd refill RM95.00 600km 326km 0.28 (RM91.75/326km)

RM0.28/liter does it consider high FC?
How accurate is the l/100km FC from the ODO?

unfortunately yes!
99% urban driving so far. what is the normal RM/liter for EB?

why do i need to reset the ODO?

Then I must get more input from new EB owners on the fuel consumption. What is the L/100KM? If I remember correctly I think mine is about 14.4L/100KM. High??...

my convervative way of calculating FC = RM/KM = RM0.28/liter.

Anyone read The Star newspaper today? Elegant Brown Exora to be used as budget taxi, first batch to be launched by June with rate starting from RM3 (so cheap!). Damn, counting down, we will all be taxi drivers by June. My only positive note is my EB is Solid White and not Elegant Brown!!... Hopefully, nobody wave down my EB and think I'm a taxi driver! Why is Proton never give us owners a proper thought before deciding on using Exora as a taxi!
