sez the guy who has a proton badge as his avatar with a signature that goes: "Proton Power" in large bold red text.




w00t.

hmm, i asked the salesrep from one proton dealer, he claims that even 06 models not black interior boh..

Same here.... i asked 2 dealers already!! said the same thing, never heard of savvy with dark interior.... weird... going to check out with the eon and PE branches instead... anyone out there got any info on this??? thanks..

dark interior is mean for UK market ,
their taste is not toward beige coulour .

There's actually local owners with dark interior in savoc. ALL NEW SAVVY IN LOCAL MARKET HAVE DARK INTERIOR as confirmed by Amin the marketing manager from R3. Try to check with branch instead.

No not me ... I give credit when it's due. I'm defending Proton from attempts to defame them by using tak nak to proton avatar in LYN. That's even worse. it's just a knee jerk reaction from me.

this is what happens in oversea, u can buy a mini cooper for RM60-70k brand spanking new, but u have to pay RM16-20 for every litre of patrol. Which one u choose leh? also, road tax and insurance even higher.. think about it people. use ur brain...

u dont have to spend time in the service center every freaking weekend ?

yea, and their earning power is much higher as well. Btw, we don't have to pay for PATROL. In malaysia and other parts of the world, we pay for petrol.
I wonder if you live in another world?

sorry, wrongly spelled petrol lah, gas lah, whatever.. imagine 1 full tank rm450. it's possible u know..

From Australian Savvy brochure..

i wonder the rest of the RM100k can supply me how many years of petrol..

Sorry for a noob question: what is hafei lobo engine?

You can't compare the price directly as countries have different buying power.

£.98 per litre for them isn't that bad having that they earn on everage £2000 per month on the average. Considering that they could buy Savvy with around £6000~£7000, they don't even need bank loan to buy a new car. And in that price range, they got whole lot of other choices.

In Malaysia,
RM1.92 per litre for us, and average RM2000 per month. Savvy cost RM45k (I'm guessing), with years of loan. Remember the choices we could have in RM45k range. Now that's a big different.


So the interior is black. Cool. What's the price for Savvy AMT right now (I can't find the price in the Proton website, not even in the PDF)? And when is the Hi Line (with ABS/EBD/BEBD) coming?

True my sis in US drive an accord cost USD 20k and the petrol is ~USD1.50 per GALLEN (NOT liter). Proton made us all drive interior yet expensive cars in malaysia

Just picked my Savvy MT few days before Raya. so i spent my Raya zipping back to my kampung in my savvy

overall the car handling is very good and my wife aka co-pilot told me to slow down cause i'm taking corner way too fast on winding roads in Pahang

too bad that you can't adjust the steering wheel height. FC is quite okay for me. RM 50 for one day 426 km trip (Bangi-Raub-Tanjung Besar-Kuala Lipis- Seremban).

I bought savvy as a second car as i finished paying off my iswara and me and my wife travel a lot.

stop exaggerating. it's annoying.

wow, since when overseas cars don't have interior? is Proton at fault for making us drive 'interior cars?'

well, I suppose it's good in a way that Proton exists. Knowing the quality of Malaysian drivers, imagine how much our accident rate would increase if our cars were tax-free, and everyone could be owning a supercar at Malaysian S-Class prices.

ya i agree with u. even with "stupid" proton so many accidents happen, imagine if many "i'm so proud coz not driving proton" on the road

honestly, if those s-class owners lives in overseas, that money can easily get lamborghini or sorts tho..

actually the car actually looks kinda cute from the side...but i do think that the leg room for the rear sits isn't too spacious

Savvy's latest price I myself also not sure....need to check with my dealer too.


Jing_Kohkoh,

You said their price USD1.50 per gallon.

I think we can't use petrol price in the US as a comparison...their petrol is way too cheap..been subsidesed also.

True price is 15 times that!!

Hi the FC is okay only for a car that hasn't been run in properly lol? I think the FC is very good already .. have you sent your car for 1k service?

Anyway glad you make the choice..gratz on ur new Savvy..

Trust me after getting a Savvy, you won't feel like travelling on expressway anymore although it's stable at high speed...now I travel on b roads a lot. Love the ride n handling.
