I expect to read some worthy input and views from lowyat forum regarding Exora but ended up reading a lot of your crappy so-called good command lousy annoying words....
You're nowhere more credible and constructive than the rest of us. And since when having a good command in English makes someone a better person? And i believe Lowyat didnt put that as pre-req to post here right?

You're the case of an empty can for me.

Exora; I'm still wondering if Proton still have something up their sleeves. Their MOU with Mitsubishi last December should results on something promising, in the form of a GDI or MIVEC perhaps?

Then again, looking at how all those pre-prod pictures of Exoras leaks through the internet, if there were any better engine, somebody from Proton should've leak the news

My guesstimate from details scattered around the net, the Exora will be as sluggish as Innova, if you call that sluggish. And 3 out of 4 review claims that the Exora NVH is great. One review even suggest that its quieter than a french car they drove two weeks earlier. 308? facelifted 407?

I've been following most reviews related to mpv's especially those available locally. I'm very familiar with Avanza 1.5 (the nervous car) and last facelift Odyssey CBU (just as crappy as local assemble - hint; suspension noise), driven G. Livina on a few occasion and test driven the latest Wish and Stream. I cant clearly rate Paultan or CBT or Motortrader but comparing their previous reports on other cars and this Exora, i can safely say that it is something.

It might sell well....

Hey English teacher, its 'safety', not 'security' i suppose.

Annoying wasn't it?

The company cars (Avanza, Odyssey). Been to and fro to SG on monthly, if not weekly basis.

And i don't have that so-called 'mystic' mode that can sense the quality of all those mpv's from range. You should have that ability since you have conclude Exora as a failure. Care to share with us how to develop those skills?

That was preliminary specification. Ever read the clause 'subject to change without notice'? In Exora's case, a better engine may be?

I didnt have any problems with their pricing since Waja CPS is 65k, Gen2 and Persona around 50k to 60k, Saga 40k and so on. Pricing the Exora below 70k would conflict Waja's price wasn't it?

I think the price is fair as long as they prep the car up to 70k to 80k quality level. At least better plastic than Avanza or Citra. Or you prefer they price it 50k? And end-up with plastics with cheap fillers and smelly antioxidant, resulting the whole family vomit on long journeys.

Besides that, I think the Civic that trumps the crash test have more airbags... more safety features which reduce occupants injury (the dummy in this case).

As we know, japanese has been an excellent weigh saver (or some call it cheating the metal). That factor also have help them to reduce fuel consumption last time (80s and 90s), help on engine reliability (less strain to push lightweight cars) and a few other advantage.

However on passenger car, right weight helps driving dynamic (i dont wanna hear somebody talks about F1 cars which is feather weight with excellent handling). Passenger car was design to take 4 to 5 adults plus luggage and the total weight can affect the car's handling. This is the area where Japanese usually lost. Their car usually struggles on full load. Rear bottoms out etc. I prefer to ride on full load Waja rather than full load Civic ES for example.

Exora could have a right weight balance, only the engine is lacks of grunts for an mpv. Looking forward for their turbo / diesel version.

So which ass d u lick?



Back to the Exora.. the BCM thingy sound missleading. They should put other term on that thing beside Body Control Module. Sounds like stability program or chassis related control whereas the actual function is to setup the car's electronics.
