I've seen the car up close, and from the looks of it, a few plus points and some negative points.

PLUS
-3rd row space is great, far better than Citra or G.Livina.
-aircond blower until the 3rd row is good.
- space for driver is decent.
-tyre size and rim is ok.
-design is very good, although exist some similarities, but its not obvious.

NEGATIVE
-engine no good. Its made originally for sedan class, never for MPV
-interior is too plasticky and too hard for my taste.
-door doesn't shut properly, need to close hard to feel the grip.
-door looks thin. I wonder how the hell exora survive side crashes with it.
-price is still dissapointing for a local company that uses 90% local materials. Even Citra 2.0L is same price with M-line (not including the rebate)

I was starting to accept Proton back into reality...beginning with Exora, but just yesterday Bank Negara announced an increase on all bank car loans for imported cars. Jeezz....another reason to go back hate Proton and our government for its protection plan.
