The savvy on the other hand have really daring/new design, maybe most of the Malaysians dun really like bold and daring design. JUst look what happen with the Juara. Weird design and malaysian rejected it.


there's a difference between daring / new / bold design with UGLY design. Juara was downright ugly.

people have difference sources of inspiration. a jet-fighter is faster than any 4 wheeled metal you can find.

Well..i'm not a fanboy. Just sometime hate the fact that some people dont want to admit something good from Proton. Also praise their favourite like ferrari also lost to them. That's all. I never say Perodua sux, Toyota sux, Honda sux.

Proton's pricing sux. their cars are actually decent.

I personally like the Waja, Neo and Savvy. I'm still thought about getting Savvy recently tongue.gif still prefer it over P2 cars due to the price and technology. space is not an issue as i'm driving a Satria (near decade old).

Anyway, i don't like the AMT...fake auto car...later got problems 3 years down the road...cry!! cry.gif


wah how can you say it's fake auto la. it was never claimed to be an auto la. IINM it's still considered MANUAL transmission. it's just that it's clutchless manual. it has never claimed to be an AT so i don't think it's fair to call it fake auto. smile.gif and i tested the AMT and fell in love with it.

A semi-automatic transmission (also known as clutchless manual transmission, dual-clutch transmission, automated manual transmission, e-gear, or paddle shift gearbox)

my point - it's not a "fake auto" or wannabe or anything. it's still an automated manual.

you have to treat it like a manual because it's still based on manual. it's just that it has the convenience of switching gear on it's own. it doesn't defeat any purpose, it's AUTOMATED MANUAL TRANSMISSION - so do till does it's purpose for being automated.

another thing about the AMT on Savvy is that while it functions similar to an AT, it's fuel-efficient is that of an MT. smile.gif

and to say going clutchless meant for ladies isn't fair to them (ladies) either. a lot of ladies don't mind using MT (with clutch la) and to drive an auto is for convenience, manual can be damn tiring sometimes. it's not a gender thing, it's a preference thing.
