M line auto is close to RM 40 k...

But i wish if they can put ABS (active safety) without jacking up the price too much, they should do it, although i know this segment is very budget conscious...

Nice. Now even Singaporean praise the car.
Seriously, I find that the Saga is much much more comfortable than the Vios and Vios feels lumpy although it has 109hp.

So, this car.....can be called as the home run for Proton?

probably it talks about the number brought into singpore and units sold ? rather than then units that has been sold ?

I don't think the list is about Top 10 best selling.......if it is, then Vios or Corolla Altis must be in the list, as both of these models are oone of the best selling models in Singapore...

This list more about automotive review....

Again, it is the opinion of a automotive journalist...based on his tests/ reviews...

Not a gauge of how's the best selling....or some sort...

no lar.. i so far have not heard any prob with saga BLM.. too few units in the market to make a good accessment

These days, new Proton Saga can spotted very easily, in KL or even in Perak........the frequency of such sightings are higher than models like Persona or Gen2...

yea... more of review.. which i dont think many ppl follow

Not everyone looks at automotive review, which is true...for many buyers, they just look at brand or word of mouth regarding to ownership experience...

We are not saying Proton Saga is crap or good, in my opinion, it is very decent for what is intended for......the problem is, Toyota has something, what we call as "reputation", Toyota brand can easily attract buyers without effort, because it is their cars are known to be reliable for several decades......and along with it, their reputation also got built up...
