i actually dont quite see the point of this thread now.. this is no longer discussing bout the new gen2 sedan, but instead its become a basher's galore  back on topic : 200 orders in juz 2 days is quite good actually if u think bout it.. i guess people got tempted for the price.. pls proton, do sumthin good this time n dont let this 200 n more 2 come be disappointed n ruin ur name much worser than it already is..

QUOTE(haze @ Jul 25 2007, 10:27 AM) well if u see clearly the headrest is diffrent. It sems like it has the adjustale headrest and no more of that permanent 'bucket' seat in th current gen2. Well that is great news honestly, i dont care bout headrests.. a simple change in headrest is not gonna make everyone change their minds bout protons, r they??

things r really starting 2 look good 4 proton.. this persona looks impressive 2 me, lots of kit, reasonable quality for a very reasonable price i havent seen it yet, i think i wanna drop by proton edar showroom this weekend, n hopefully i could get a test drive of a 1.6 auto.. coz they said the auto in the previous gen2 was really terrible, so wanna test how much has improved.. everythin looks ok.. i like the interior n i really like the instrumental panel  the only thing is, i wish they have a better engine n used a different design steering 2 replace that hideous gen2 ones.. n although it sounds stupid, i like the name too  persona may sound stupid, but it'll be ok 4 overseas market.. at least the foreigners can mention it properly

QUOTE(Revamperz @ Aug 16 2007, 11:24 AM) well im kinda surprise with some review,which is good. i tot its gonna be just a stretch gen2, but proton totally rework the back to much more bigger space! , if only they redesign the back lamp tho.. it'll be nice, at least more originality from the current gen2s. i kinda like where the proton heading this time round, nice teaser ads and not perfect but overall good end product.  me talking about looks only tho..  me was like u also.. i thought its juz gonna be a gen2 wit a bigger boot, n thats it.. everythin else remains, even the prob also remains.. but proton have taken the effort 2 bring the car back onto the drawing boad, n rework the major probs.. this means, proton has taken us seriously.. proton now r moving 2wards giving us wat we want.. n thats really good, hope this continues, n theyll be ok..

QUOTE(dstl1128 @ Aug 17 2007, 02:54 PM) The concept art from the newspaper, the steering looks so nice. But the real car steering looks so lousy. thats coz its juz the normal gen2 steering, in which majority of people here hates.. it looks so cheapo n ugly, kinda like the steering wheel on one of those arcade race car game machines.. i especially hate those really cheap looking radio control buttons on the steering wheels wish that theyve used some better design for the steering..

QUOTE(jVIPERs2 @ Aug 20 2007, 12:48 AM) But Proton does not have their own AMT tech right? Juz sourced frm Renault with the engine...
QUOTE(Azuma-kun @ Aug 20 2007, 12:49 AM) They named it as Automated Manual Tansmission (AMT). I think Renault use different term. the semi auto used in the savvy is exactly the same from renault.. proton dont have their own amt tech, they juz get it from renault n gave it a new name.. brilliant!!
