Is this company went bust.Why no update? In end 90's EON (Proton car dealer company) assemble these cars in Malaysia. These cars being powered by Nissan Pulsar's 2.0 4 cylinder CA20E and 2.0 16 valve Toyota Celica's 3S-FE engine.They were not cheap with prices starting at RM 170,000 in 2008 or more than RM 203,000 when adjusted for inflation.Last I check their website, td-2000.com, it directed to some betting website. A trip down the Wayback Machine saw that the domain appeared to be taken over by some Chinese website some time in 2018.

What do you think?
Enjoy and discuss.

Nope. TD2000 was once under EON decades ago. Meanwhile, Bufori still alive as I know...

Being a real car enthusiast, it isn't always about the most aerodynamic shapes, not always about having the latest tech, not about the best 0-100kph time or the highest top speed, or even the number of G forces it can generate while cornering. Sometimes, it is just about the simple wind in the hair experience, just driving and enjoying the drive and the occasion. These attributes are somewhat lost in the new generation who do not understand how motoring started out. It has evolved to be efficient and yet impersonal. Sad to see such comments.

Bufori, according to their website only sells 1 model. The Geneva, and I doubt many here can afford that and here's something to note. The older Bufori models had an unconventional rear engine (Subaru 2.2L flat four) layout, like the old Beetle. I personally would have preferred the TD2000 with its more 'normal' FR layout.

Just some food for thought and it is a pity that companies that made the TD2000 died out. But they were way too expensive anyway for what they were. Hopefully in today's digital world, there would be some place for a product like the TD2000 to make a comeback, and if they do, with a more M40 friendly price tag.
