If this is only made to order for govt use (3000 units), spare parts will still be from Honda except maybe bumper, tyres, seat, mirror, mat, radio. So biggest loser will still be 8thGen Accord owners for lower RV and calling Perdana a twin brother.

I think you know the 2nd phase of this car. Same chassis (minimum testing requirement for suspension, front axle, rr axle, tube brake system, ESP etc as dont really need recalibration/homo/testing) to minimise risk. They change shell/top hat will be different al together with interior.
following with this will be other project (parts supply to Honda). At least Proton can make money and fund its new platform. And Proton is very desperate for engines (diesel)

SLow slow wait, Inspira also more then 90 K alrdy

LOL you actually comparing Proton to Nissan? One produced the legendary SKyline/GTR... the other.. er...

I don't know but i think even so they going to use petronas engine, own transmission and what not for PRM 2nd phase, the cost is much higher than total rebadge. Let say they manage to match the cost with rebadge fees, i dont think Proton can sell the Perdana phase 2 and reach their monthly target. And still they have to pay for license on the platform. Even 300 per months is very difficult for D segment Proton. Pricing is very critical when you start entering luxury D segment with that kind of brand image Proton has now. What's better is they can sell their tech for example GSC to honda and honda is going to rebadge or sell GSC to other market. That is more better in returns for Proton.

Ya... I heard the Chrysler 300 is just a Merc E-Class with new bumper/grill/rear lights....

Am I right?

And also legendary Almera which parts also from local vendor.

How are you enjoicing your new Vios TRD, no regret book from me right? Just 3k service fee you get your car so fast can cut que!

The old one yes. The new one use own homegrown platform.

Look at it this way. The new Maserati Ghibli is like guido. It has Italian look with American insides powered by Jeep Cherokee.

honda owner are selling thier car now..duwan to be identified as pronda owner

fark u la.

if parts not from local vendor, they dun get to do business here.

Have you ever wonder, if they dun source from local vendor, how can the car be known as CKD and get import duty exempted?

What's wrong with that? The E01 is co-developed by a senior Honda engineer too, u know.

For me personally, the new Perdana launch does not concern me since it's only meant for the govt to renew their fleet, not for the masses. I am more interested with what the new Accordana will look like 2 years time from now. I hope they carry over the wheelbase and tech from Accord but with own design from Lotus. Now that would be ngam. Design fugly or not, I rather go with that rather than direct rebadge like what they did for the govt. To be honest, govt. getting the rebadged Accord becoz Proton cannot dare to lose the tender and with the promises already made that the car will be ready by end of 2013. Too bad for govt for getting a 'half baked' car. Hopefully when the proper Accordana is ready in 2015, the govt. won't sibuk sibuk trying to replace the Accordana they have now with the new one. Then I will be pissed becoz they are simply wasting rakyat's money.

lol. u dun get my expression.

i dun farking care that we should have CKD. just bring in all CBU. y need farking care about local car making industry? malaysians aint proud of them
