Suspect its the Persona SE...full leather thing with Auto Cruise mode, similar like Gen 2 CPS except same engine with IAFM. Its in paper today.

to test the market dulu ler...

oo ok...

wtf, using waja rims?

so it means i can change my gearknob looks, new meter looks, silver handle

dmn, sooo many new things from the previous one...

but wth, i oledi mod mine, looks nicer than those ad

today went to refuel again..FC = 12.1L/100km..rm83 full, total distance travel 244KM !  
*noted* i reset the fc meter every refuel..

Persona, driven very hard ..it is a beast, behave like a 2.0L Fuel consumption..

Well, if you don't mind the outlook and cosmestic change, normal HL is more than enough..

Why? Cosmestic change (interior and exterior) doesn't gain more Horsepower or better FC, same chassis, body, suspension, brake and etc..
tough challenge for proton, within A year..PERSONA need a refacelift to boost up the sales..what a shame..

so, what can they do next? release new model every 3-4years?

it's normal for auto tranny, coarse and loud engine..
140kmh = 3800 rpm
160kmh = 4400 rpm

still can go faster, 170..180kmh before running of space to speed.

did you hear the front brake, metal scrubbing noise, something scrapping the disc..? Happened at low speed only..

when the brakes is cold, no noise..it is getting noiser, worst once you do hard braking frequently

haha, just two days my persona, so far no prob..til...
it happens, when i'm waiting my GF at seremban terminal bus
suddenly i heard like i hit sumthing...so i came out n check my car.front,rear, left,right.??uik i didnt hit anything.what was that? i can feel it when i was sitting at the driver seat.felt like i'm hitting sumthing.wierd.hmm.so i look down, below the car.

jeng jeng jeng..


now my fuel tank 'senget' oledi

its very rare case.i'm the 'lucky' guy...
i check almost every inch of the car.seems perfect. til now..lol

I just place my booking persona today. Will get it around Oct or Nov2008

yeap..auto tranny. penang town driving, 50% peak hour, the rest of the time drive like maniac, fast and furious 

for auto tranny.
70kmh - 2000rpm
80kmh - 2200rpm
90kmh - 2500rpm
100kmh - 3050rpm
120kmh - 3200rpm

3krpm is somewhere in between 100kmh - 105kmh

True... the auto is very high FC.

it is a B8 natural aspirated right?...1.6ford laser, astina is B6..

FC is acceptable, comparable to other 1.6L made..

Hey guys ~ I saw some nice rare persona putting up a Wing at their back.
The wing is not big , just fit and look very suite with the car ~ I dont know how to describe the wing .
Not big in size , just fit and look nice with the car ( like Gen-2 wing ). Anyone got nice wing for their persona here?

Updated Fuel consumption:-

18L= around 170km mileage ( 70% town driving , traffic jam , reving to 3k~4k , a bit aggresive )

35L=around 400km+ mileage ( 70% town driving , constant speed at 80~90km, non-aggresive)

Too bad to tell that my persona still drinking petrol like water  I feel that persona body is heavy!

PS: I got mix the nano-tech fuel saver ( buy from 7-11) .. Seems useless~
PSS: I am driving auto~

B8T..Bee8Turbo..that churns out >160Hp..180Horse to be exact?   
the B8T 210 ..halfcut engine available for >rm5k

Added on August 18, 2008, 11:34 amMy Sona has alignment problem too, steering still swerve slightly towards LEFT..

alignment and balancing done for few times already..tyres rotation front to back, left and right also did already..not sure what's wrong, could be tyre problem.

last time when i start to drive onli hits 8.9L/100km.. nowadays the meter shows 9.3L/100km after i reset it..

Its normal on all dics brake pad be it on Honda, Toyota etc.No worry.

Foldable seats are very convenient especially when carrying long items, also useful during long distance trips whereby you can access the trunk from the rear seats!

Ooops... sorry no idea how to get it modified. I drive a H-line 

Wira pcd100
Persona/G2/Perdana/Waja/old Saga, pcd114.3

Persona PCD114.3, offset 46mm. Getting the correct offset can save lots of trouble..some may need spacer to fit properly

Anyone got the solution to B-line rear seats that make noise? I searched this thread and still haven't found any answer to it yet

just got my foq light installed. cost me only 160. 2 lights, 1 switch and instalation.
