I was excited about the 8k rebate. Faster paid booking fees for 2014 year end model then after waiting for 1 month, suddenly the SA called to tell me they were out of stock all over the places.

I had no choice but to bump up my payment and made the order for the 2015 model silver colour.

I'm still very excited about the car and happy to own a Preve, but the SA's repeated empty promises are disappointing me.  mad.gif

Same case as mine. But the SA just call me, they have discount 3k for 2015 model right now

Exec preve dont come with the light. You do can just see the SID for the gear display. No need to look down.

No.
My problem is after switched off the engine, fan sometimes running sometimes not to cool down the engine.
I think fan MUST be running after switched off the engine. (before used to drive Myvi, not sure about this).
Is it normal for Preve CFE?

Engine switched off.
1. hissing sound
2. after ~10 - 15mins
3. then, new sound came out... something like "tak" / "toing"(spring putus)

Thank you.

Turbo engine will keep running the fan for a while after switch off to cool down engine. Myvi dont have turbo so it dont have this characteristic.

point no.3 seem a bit abnormal. perhaps you can make video and post it here smile.gif

I've ordered Executive CVT Black colour on last Thursday, no ready stock, today Tuesday only but feel like waiting for months. LOL.

I wonder why no ready stock, is it because black Preve is not popular?

Anyway i guess it's a good thing cause i assume the stock will come directly from kilang?

I got a bank approved my loan, but now awaiting another bank to approve and see if the interest is any lower.

Very hard for me for bank to approve my loan nowadays. My record not good but also not that bad.

Good thing my S.A able to order the car first without signing the loan first.

And i said no to all cheap freegifts and gets Raytech security tint instead

For other than silver or white, you have to wait. I ordered red preve on Dec 2014, Got the car on end of March

For your case. I guess because it's hard to get the 2014 Preve since it;s limited stock?
Cant be 3 months. Dat is scary sweat.gif
I change to 2015 model since all 2014 model is sold out. The SA say if silver or white can get it on January

shit. Is it because they need some times to produce the 2015?

Is the year of the car means the year they start producing or on paper only?

I cant wait 3 months man sweat.gif

The year refer to production year. So if you buy 2014 model and register it on 2015, it still count as 2014 model.

Car is produce by batch. For example, they may produce white batch first, then other color. That is what SA told me.

Since all the 2014 model is sold out, I have to wait for 2015 batch. But it seems like they only produce white and silver as the first batch.

One of other reason the SA told me is, proton factory busy manufacture IRIZ. So quota for Preve is limited

Is it that long?
Firstly booking for Silver.
Then, my SA said.. end of April will get the car since Silver hot color and ask me to take red instead.
Since 1 apr = GST

Mine. ~2weeks.
Ordered 18th Mar 2015, got the car on 1 Apr 2015.
Fire Red @ Senawang Proton Edar

Thanks.

I also received my red preve end of march. just a few days before GST biggrin.gif

Waiting Proton to produce Red batch for 3 month. Before that, my agent keep spamming me to take silver or white.
