What are differences compared to current Gen2? Or is it totally the same except for the glovebox?

I don't think people expect much difference compare to the current Gen2. The expectation is more on how proton solve their qualility issue. But it is quite a disappointment if they see Proton don't do anything to improve the engine.

I think what he is trying to say is that P2 follow the QA and QC standard similar to toyota/daihatsu. if you work in Japs company you will know that they are really strict when it comes to quality

I think the mindset is not that "japanese is superior". It should be "local made is inferior".

I see some pics with non black interior. Has anyone see the base line model? Is it has different interior than the medium and the high line?

2004 Waja using Mitsu engine right? Most of buyer are concern about the Campro engine FC. Since Persona is heavier than Waja and Gen2 then the FC might be worse.

6.2 liters for 100km is what P1 said at their website. The real FC will definately worse than that. All car manufacturer do this to make their car looks good.

Gen 2

Top Speed (Km/h): 180(M) 175(A)
FC@90Km/h: 5.8L/100km(M) 6.8L/100km(A)
Acceleration 0-100: 12.1s(M) 16s(A)

Persona

Top Speed (Km/h): 190(M) 185(A)
FC@90Km/h: 6.3/100km(M) 6.6L/100km(A)
Acceleration 0-100: 12s(M) 14.3s(A)

Persona have better top speed even when usng same engine. It should be lower since it is heavier than Gen2. Did P1 tweak the engine since the FC also change from Gen2. For auto it maybe because of TCU but should it be the quite the same for manual?

I think the base line is a really good buy. Can use the money saved to change the rims and steering. Too bad it doesn't have the foldable rear seat.

No matter how ugly a car is there will be some poeple who bought it. The definition of ugly is very subjective. Some people might consider the design "unique" or different from ordinary

For me it either High Line or Base Line. Buy Base line then mod or buy High line and keep it as it is. Not sure if can change the CD to MP3 for BL hmm.gif

Any news on the facelift Gen2 with CPS engine? I hope it come soon otherwise I'm not sure there is any reason to buy the Gen2 since the persona is a better buy.

I hope the facelift Gen2 will have the interior similar to Persona + CPS engine. Maybe it will be priced close to 60K to avoid competiton to the Persona. I wonder if there will be NEO will CPS too hmm.gif
