What spec are you all getting? I'm getting full spec metalic, just wondering either manual or auto only. My mom don't want manual. sad.gif

i see most lyn forumers getting manual. but as for me i've firmly made up my mind on the full spec solid auto. just waiting for other ppl to own a car and give a review. if all's well i'll book one later this year.

Manual for better speed and torque power mar, not to mention save petrol abit. I also want manual but have to see my parent's decision first eventhough I'm the one paying for it. sweat.gif

I notice from paultan's automotive blog that the Manual shifter for this new Saga look a bit tall. Does it look like that in real life? Coz, i went to a small Proton showroom nearby and they had no Manual models on display, so i'm unable to check out the Manual shifter.
*
All showrooms here have only full spec auto, no chance to see manual gear. And somemore each showroom has each color, which I need to go around the town just to see other colors. doh.gif

according to yesterday newspaper, proton secured 27k orders so far
minus 6k before launch, means proton manage to get 21k orders in 10 days time
the showroom opens for 12 hours a day,

so 21,000/120 = 175 car per day or 2.9 cars per minute!!

world record liao ^.^
*
It's 175 per hour eh.

Went to Kluang from muar with 5 person... For me laa, no difference at all, pickup still the same..
Maybe becoz my habit is always use '3' for starting and use 'D' when reach 60kmh...

Some said it's more powerful than Wira's 1.5L engine. I don't have the chance to even test drive. In Miri, all resellers only entitled to one unit per show room, kinda sucks.

Just booked the car, and asked about the FC. The salesman say it's about RM12/100km, which is pretty good.

Just now saw the trailer carrying some of the new Saga, saw solid white at the top front. Expect to see people driving on the road here real soon. Next week, new batch will come and test drive will be available. Just need to find the salesman, and can give a try right away. The showroom is just outside of my working place only. Can't wait la. rclxm9.gif

Cars are to distributed among various resellers around the city. Not to say that even cars are available from the working place your SA is, many other SA in that company will also try to get it first before others. A tip from my SA. If you want to get car faster than other, pay the 10% down payment first to get signed by the company's boss.

I've change from Silver to White, hopefully can get it fast. If I manage to pay 10% right now, there's chance to get my car in a month time frame since my SA is going to adjust it for me. biggrin.gif
