Waiting for tomorrow announcement

someone shd do a group buy, nego some discounts

i think u can tell them ur preferred model lo.. then also 2nd choice. if u wanna think twice, u can submit loan for 2 variant, then u see which loan u wan to accept lo. just that u cannot submit loan for 2 banks lol. u can tell ur SA la they can arrange for u.

The SA I've contacted said just book your preferred variant first, but we are allowed to change later.

Expected queues & long waiting times. Some SA even took bookings since August

Usually how long does bookings open for? 1-2 months?

Personally, don't feel the rush to make the booking yet as I'm not 100% decided on the colour and would prefer to take a look at the car this Saturday first...

But if  there's a quota, for example first 10k bookings = Batch 1, subsequent 10k bookings = Batch 2, then I think there might be more urgency to book quickly

my gf (soon to be fiance) want to have a SUV b-seg, and keep say HRV better than x50 due to honda, japanese car, more reliable bla bla bla. looking at proton like low level like that...i'm so keen to have x50 but gf (w/o car knowledge) keep have those "listen parents/fren say" mentality, making the purchase of x50 is very impossible...

While im getting a D seg sedan in future

worst come to worst if she has bought HRV, I wouldn't be happy and I wouldn't drive/sit that car tbh

china binyue forum; undercarriage rusting issue

I PMed you

Some SA took the initiative to take bookings early however it is not recognised by Proton.

For these guys who booked earlier, the SAs just registered the bookings officially starting today

Asked my China friends' opinion on this car. They said, if buy, use 3-4 years or 100K km, then sell it off.
Most of the problems comes after that.

SA informed that Flagship X50 is tentative at 103k.. before any discount or sales tax exemption

I plan to get flagship but there is no video or brochure to 'promote' this feature.. hard to convince ppl to upgrade to flagship when they dont know what is L2 ADAS.. plus the sunroof is not really a plus point to some..

Actually I would rather think that if Executive variant is below RM80k, it can grab a lot of sales.

Malaysian like leather seats.

Got video from china, similar to honda sensing in civic now. Auto cruise control, lane keep assist, auto emergency breaking..

My SA told me estimated pricing is 75k, 85k, 90k, 103k

I see. Anyone got slots left? I watch the videos, seems like the quality of the cameras are not that good. Or is it just the preview unit only like that?

If she is a simple point A to B driver, then Honda might be the better choice. For normal service, Honda is good, bar the warranty claim issue. If she can ignore minor squicky2 sound, go Honda.

Proton older models are mechanically reliable but rattle quite sooner than other brands. Service quality is bad, even in COSE have to wait half a day to change oil even if you are 1st in queue. If older model, can go to authorised service center like Lim Tayar to do minor service quickly. If geely model, cannot run away from 3S and 4S.

It's possible.. then after sst rebate is less than 100k.
I agree, it's possible (look at vios)

if the flagship is 95k ,  mean proton is trying to kill ihis eldest son  - x70 
i can foreseen many x70 executive buyer will change their order to x50 flagship
