hmm.. the 1.6 engine they have in the new Gen2 sedan seems to be quite powerful. enocuntered one on Saturday morning on my way to the airport, a mule, actually. it was doing around 160km/h and still accelerating.

wanted to post some of the pic i toook that day but now that it's official i don't see the point. furthermore, my main pc is down. so i can't even upload the pics.

as requested.

well that pic was taken last Saturday morning. purposely slowed down to about 60km/h to wait for them as they were just exiting the LITRAK rest area.

hey kacang, long time no chat.

yeah. the two Gen2 sedan's i chased were also doing around 170km/h.. high speed test runs i believe..

eh next time LNT gathering call me man. need to catch up with you guys.

anyway, i met them on my way to LCCT. actually i saw them at the LITRAK rest stop. slowed down to about 60km/h, just to wait for them to catch up. mana tahu, shoot by at 140km/h+, i thought easy to catch, celak~, have to push to around 170-180km/h only can pass them.

isn't the Evolution 7.5 the automatic Lancer?

IIANM it comes with with a smaller-than-standard rear wing. and not forgetting the GT-A badge on the front grille.

anyway, hope Proton will stick to the current Gen.2 name and not change it..

and they named it Proton Persona, why?

IIANM they named the Wira "Persona" in the UK, right?

exactly.

but if you read today's Edge, MD Syed Zainal said that the "new" Proton Persona 1.6 is being tested by "our business partners".. so.. lol.

IIANM he drew it up himself.


exactly. market it as the Gen.2 Sedan lah. what's wrong with that?
