QUOTE(apisgogo @ Jul 24 2007, 09:29 AM) this might be good... but i wonder how much impact it gonna hit for previous gen2 and waja sales. that's the problem for proton to figure that out itself... why worry?   |

QUOTE(ltw82 @ Jul 24 2007, 10:00 AM)  the new gen2 sedan = rm45k - rm50k... old gen2 + old waja value will be like piece of JUNK... if tht's the current value, i wonder who's gonna buy those savvy...  hmm... not to mention is there any value for a savvy now...? owner of proton will suffer the most... he just mentioned the below in another thread... QUOTE And Gen.2 sedan looks much sexier than those tall narrow japangese cars anyway - vios, city and latio sedan which are dam ugly. |

QUOTE(vBOy @ Aug 22 2007, 02:25 PM) saw it last saturday where they display the car in the curve... one thing is for sure... the boot space is very big & deep... haven't try to get into the interior... not sure how big is the interior is...  another thing... the rear seats can be folded but not completely flat... and there is 2 metal panels portruding (to protect rear speakers i presume) after the seats being folded down... i felt the edges to be quite sharp... so its advisable that owner pay some attention to that part... |

QUOTE(Azuma-kun @ Aug 22 2007, 02:59 PM) Also, when u lift up back the seat, make sure it have click sound. i thing most people wont fold the rear seats up or down too often... & the mechanism should last longer than the car's age itself... If the lock is loose, once u brake the seat fold itself.  anyway, kudos for proton to includ this feature even its a sedan... last time, only wira aeroback have this feature & not the wira sedan...  QUOTE(CHIP CN @ Aug 22 2007, 03:00 PM) auto fold passanger seat dunno i should  or .......... |

QUOTE(jVIPERs2 @ Aug 22 2007, 03:22 PM) I believe no sub 60K cars cover up the speakers right??? if i remember correctly, wira aeroback's speakers were coverup one... Muz hav a look at City's... Wow...can fit in mattress... Promote "some activity" in car... need to be removed somemore if need to change the absorber/rubber holder... anyway, i still feel they should be cover up nontheless... perhaps sooner or later there will be some aftermarket covers... |

QUOTE(kcng @ Aug 23 2007, 09:54 AM) auto i am not sure as its 1.6L engine, i would say its slightly on the high side? for manual @ 5th gear 80 km/h is 2.5k region 110 km/h is 3 k region Added on August 23, 2007, 9:56 am that if i am not mistaken, is a pre-production car..... 3 of this car has error and it has seen been fix...  i would expect 80 km/h is less or equal 2.0k region 110 km/h is less or equal 3.0k region anyway, just my tought... coz i never ever once saw how a campro engine perform... or are u refering to your neo? maybe persona's "improved" TCU will change that slightly? kakakaka... the dual fuel gauge thingy... previously i only heard... so its real... but like u said... its pre-production car... as long as they make it right for customer cars then its not a big deal... |

QUOTE(kcng @ Aug 23 2007, 10:24 AM) yeap i am refering to my neo as comparison cuz its a campro... throughout my monitoring so far...same engine... i dunno about the TCU cuz i din really take note when i test drive ther persona.... nope, even a 1.3 carb iswara at 100 km/h is at 3k rpm region... i believe it should be quite standard in alot of cars... 3k rpm at cruising speed gives the balance between FC and power.... <-- this is my opinion la i will get 2krpm at 80km/h and 2.5krpm at 100km/h (1.5L 1NZ-FE with the 4-speed AT... u know what car lah... )last time for my wira aeroback... i got 3krpm at ~100km/h and almost ~4krpm if i try to go for 120-130km/h region (thats 1999 wira aeroback 1.5 GLI with 3-speed AT) but yes... 2krpm for ~80-100km/h is the general sweet spot for good fuel efficiency for most common vehicles... |

QUOTE(kcng @ Aug 23 2007, 10:54 AM) i think why u get so low rpm could be due to the OD.... i believe ur car have OD right ? no need the capital letters... same like the honda accord la 150 km/h at 3k rpm  really tied up lately...  well, based on the gear ratios, yes... its in overdrive mode when i switch to "D"... BTW, mine is L-2-3-D (no seperate Overdrive button) QUOTE(ymjay @ Aug 23 2007, 11:05 AM) but petrol expensive la bro...its better to have tiny cc cars these days well, if the chasis is heavy but the engine cc is small, the power to weight ratio will not be so good, hence worse fuel efficiency...so 1.6 still ok for me not to mention u'll feel the car underpower somemore... like it doesn't wanna move forward especially when u go up hill or wanna overtaking... |
