There's actually a RM3k (Wira Aeroback 1.5aSE) and RM3.5k (Gen 2) discount until end Oct. I'm driving kelisa, looking for more stable car with comfortable cabin. Was thinking of Gen 2, but surprised to see Wira for sale ( thought they're supposed to be phased off but the salesman said it wont be, true ah?) so would anyone actually advice me to take advantage of the discount and get a wira or gen 2? Actually i think wira's cabin is better, bigger and more comfy.. anyone agree with me or i'm the only one who thinks so..

Is anyone worried that it's 20yr old tech?? after all, so long already, all the probs should be solved oredi right….

1 million riggit is more money than most of us will ever see in a lifetime, but it is a very2 small amount if you look at e.g. 5 million ringgit farewell parties – sadly, quite often it is the WILL that is not there, not the MEANS.

Proton has long involve in rally scenes, but their driver Karamjit 'the flying sikhs' use evo 3.Even Proton sent their team PERT to join BTCC using the improved version of Waja. Actually much more can be done by Proton. The problem is sponsorship. The rally itself needs around 1 million per season. So Proton 'kedekut' about the sponsorship…same goes to proton T-bikes team..finish…

Proton needs to think other way. Subsidising will jeopardising their marque.Kereta murah.That's how Malaysian sees Proton, perhaps the others in the world.So, for over 20years we still struggle in the new market?Illelogical.I think we should try what the Mitsubishi done with its Pajero and Lancer,Subaru to their Impreza, and Volvo for its stationwgon.Racing…the answer to the promotion.Mitsubishi's Lancer and Pajero is so famous due to its involvement in rally. So does the Impreza for Subaru.Meanwhile, Volvo participation in TOCA uplift the stationwagon image or its estate mode.Can you imagine if Fast and Furious using Proton?Maybe Proton should supply some cars for such production in near future.Tha's what I call marketing and improving image.Not jualan murah.The effect is temporary.Diri sendiri yang rugi.Menag jadi arang,kalah jadi abu.Karam Singh Walia.:-)

Point–> Proton production have to keep running.. they don't invest millions and hire thousand of workers just to sit there….

And we do aware that the piling protons cars across malaysia as well.

DOG THE WAN,

I think from Proton's view, main reason is to export more protons overseas.

We just finshed promoting Malaysia. I think Torism Malaysia need time to re-gain their energy too…

If you may know, starting from next month till Mar, it's the peak season to visit nepal. And Air Nepal would be glad if they can fill up the cabin for Nepal to Malaysia route in order to maximise their profit if any.

Woohoo! Lelong! Lelong! Plotong murah! Plotong murah! Nah….

Anyway, on the positive side, good la. Easy to mod later on. I want to mod a Satria into a WRC vehicle (yeah rite…)

But on the downside, got people still want to buy plotong ka? Especially for everyday use. (not counting the modders)

It said you can WIN……if you win only!! you get the Free Holiday!

This promotion only encourage people to visit Malaysia, not sure the sales will go up!! I think it is better to promote people that the car quality had improved and new technologies REAL CAMPRO had installed and give better SERVICES to customers will helps the sales up.

Agree with e-nabil, normally to enter a new market loss is un avoidable…even my company 1st trying to enter M'sia market in POS terminal, we slashed the price almost half just to get a few thousand terminals to be sold to banks…so we gain profit in other ways, svc…hehehe n I think proton will just do that…give a lot of problem so gain profit in spare parts…hahahaha…bad jokes sorry potong…
