Well they knew this was coming. 2 years ago I thought they will actually do something to win back consumer's confidence. Then came along the Savvy and I was like...
Hopefully they will be bold and come up with something interesting. Frankly, they have lost their every day car market. Since they claimed QC is imrpoved, why don't go one step further. No more facelift nonsense and tall box with wheels. Focus on performance. Give us that campro with variable valves timing which they promised. Probably with a turbocharger. I'd buy one.

QUOTE(hypermount @ Jan 26 2007, 12:04 PM) bashers contradict themselves some wants them to produce the best car in term of performance, the other wants them to produce the car the people want ..this two will not mix well.. as I remember not long ago some bashers scolded Proton for placing importance on profits alone? producing unimaginative models and wants profits only, I think this is what Jeremy clarkson had been against..at least they are not producing the cars to the whim of ignorant populace...they have created cars that are great to drive unlike any other local car manufacturers that only know how to create profits only... Stupid thread like the TS himself...not that this is new. Is any car out there that can satisfied all people? What kind of contradiction are you blithering about? I wanted a perfomance car and perhaps that would catch on. Proton started, and then Perodua taking over this everyday car business so that they can move one step further. If you want to bring Jezza in, he likes superminis. Particularly, the Yaris from Toyota which also owned Perodua but definately not your Savvy. You made it sounds like Proton is actually pleasing us by not making mass-produced cheap cars anymore and others still do. And Proton has actually given us something superior but we don't appreciate it. With Savvy? Give me a break. The fact is, Proton and Perodua are still selling those what you called ''unimaginative models''. Just that both sell craps but your Savvy is crappier than crap judging by the sales volume. If you try to be something bad and still failed, it can't be any worse than this. This post has been edited by -=Axis=-: Jan 26 2007, 01:01 PM

You're aiming to sell your product to the same group of people as your competitor and they have sold more, is there any word other than failed?
