QUOTE(dazzle @ Jul 23 2007, 12:14 PM) u all still interested in Proton. I like the last phrase. But i own a proton. Just started to come out and work. Hope to find some $$ and change car Waste alot of rakyat want money. Proton own lotus company. This is not a very big deal. But is a waste money. They had establish their company for more that 20 year. Somehow the quality on the current market is damn shit. I will not have my life with Proton. Proton louzy Hidup tanpa proton, Malaysia boleh. |

Ok i am a marketing fellow. And i learn a lot from multi national company. All my case are base on real life example as this company do search for consultation from my marketing organisation.
Do you know toyota owning the world currently most effecient manufacturing plant in the world. Their cost per car is around 20-30k. Definitely there is reason and where the can minimise their cost. Guess how much Proton production cost for a normal Wira. Is around the same like toyota. You know why? 1) Demand less than production. So you can see many proton car lying around. VW only produce when ever their customer demand for 1. Estimate 1 day only you can get a car LOL. National Geo got shows it 2) Human resource over loaded. When you don't need to produce so much car why need them 3) Selecting wrong partners. Selecting the cheapest will only cause many defect. Do you know if toyota found out their partner have any defect they will return all the parts back? That is how strict they are. |

So is just some minor add into the car accesorries? No changes to the engine? Is it still the same engine like Waja. I heard people say that you have to wait a few minute for Waja to warm before you can move, if not the car no power. Is it same for this car too?

Actually is not a bad car. Is just that can we trust it? The confident and trust is long gone since 1984.
Added on July 23, 2007, 4:53 pm QUOTE(gkl83 @ Jul 23 2007, 04:46 PM) not only waja... all of the cars in this world needed to warm up 1st if want to 100% perform the engine capability... No What i mean is it cant even have 50% powergood example as F1 car, will they use a cold engine before race? even the tyre also have to keep it warm...

QUOTE(dstl1128 @ Jul 30 2007, 03:53 PM) I guess TCU should be Tranmission Control/Computer Unit. Meanwhile ECU is Engine/Eletronic Control/Computer Unit. All this thing is confusing me, what tcu icu or...That said, I take it as the Gen2 sedan only have updated TCU (as written on the 'spec'). So no CPS or VIM yet. What the heck the do? What is the different? |
