Oh so u already went thru the same dilemma as me right now? And finally u decided to go with the Preve. What color bro? Your car got lemon unit? Its good or ada rosak2? And how much for BK R3? I plan to put phantom BK once i get the car. Its cheaper, and i like the spoiler. Lol. Eh, did u regret or not for not taking suprima?

Haha. I think most probably will go with Preve bro. Listen to your advise.

Nice. U suprima or preve bro? Satisfy with ur car?

preve.. cannot say satisfied, this car no major issue, but alot small small problems which can be equally frustrating. now whenever i drive above 80km/h, i can smell my engine metal smell.. shit..

Yep, the actual Continental...Bentley Continental




bawalag Prebe ke oilrig....park at helipad

Aww. i am flattered. OK la.. thank you very much for that

He work in offshore, i believe he got no problem purchasing that car in future. Huiyo, jelly I nanti.

Is it going to void the warranty?

My cousins, same age work in this industry, offshore. Matric pointer only 2.6. He work with private international company. 1st pay USD2k/month. His jobs is calculating where to put this oil platform at sea. 1st car, Civic 2.0. That time I have not finished studied yet.

I am very sure you are planning a massive wedding. RM50k difference Civic and SS higher with Preve

Just uninstall the things u have installed when going to SC, dont think they will notice

ur the guy who got us on proton spotlight... who exposed our secret...

Blogpost was deleted not long after that

about the warranty part,don't worry, all you need is find a SC that willing to help you to claim the item that u demand,
better go for those proton edar,
if private owned SC, they will try to not claim for you, because anything they claim, if proton reject them, they have to pay it themselves.
my car, rims and absorber all changed, but still able to claim a warped disc rotor

no lemon signs as of now
u say u lurk in prevoc fb? then find look for my car there la
regret? it should be "semakin hari semakin sayang, lol!"
it gets better with mileage i guess...(my experience)

again, chose the design u like. dun want later u come mad at me for influencing u to choose preve over suprima

Wow, Im sorry to hear that bro. I didnt expect it would be that bad. How old is your preve? Must be sad mang if buy new car but happen things like that. Now im worried already to buy Proton.


Lol. Your cousin is lucky. And yes, o&g pays quite well compared with other industries, hence comes with the high risk of working environment.

Civic is a good car. At first I planned to take Mazda 3, but after thorough consideration, better start with something cheaper, and work my way up. Plus Im still young, so better save money for something else. And no I didnt plan to have massive wedding, Im a simple guy only. Plan to save money for a house.

how old is ur Preve? Does it give u any major problem bro?

chill. deswai got special room

Totally agree. Well, although Proton has improved a lot, there are still a little bit of QC issues.

still young at 4700++ km

no major prob.thankfuly

In general, seems like Sup S has lesser issues than Preve? Or is it because there are more Preve owners?

I think this comes down to the Proton QC.

1st gen always got problem compared to face lift model. SS is technically a Preve FL plus added goodies.

Omg tested suprima at the autofest. The CVT is quite comparable to City IDSI CVT with addition woosh of torque from 1.7 rpm. My uncle said his preve CVAT is more jerky than city one. Perhaps proton have mod suprima CVT software? surprise with boot size, can swallow my road bike if put down the seats

Build quality wise in my opinion is comparable(perhaps better) to current gen city (no other benchmark to compare as city's are the only car that i actually owned and drive). Safety wise proton wins hands down. Handling wise i dont have chance to test as the test drive is only have straight and 3 turn of left's.

anyway, i have no doubt proton have hit the nail with suprima s. Pity public perception on proton is lukewarm... Boooo I just hope the QC in suprima is good in the sense it will last more than 10 years

Talked to r3 folks and they told me r3 going release suprima bodykit which are different from Super premium one

The Suprima is the first Proton to debut with VT3+, essentially an improved version of VT3 found in the Preve. The benefit of VT3+ is improvement in Noise, Vibration and Harshness. It is not "jerky" and much much more quieter than VT3.

euro style back seat in ss is comfy than preve one if one seat at the back on a long journey.

vt3+ not only reduce cvt sound n less jerky,the smoothness of also help out to minimize powerloss n give it more linear power transfer plus new tcu n new ecu n tcu calibration.
