I've heard through the grapevines that the new Satria Replacement Model will be called the Proton Satria Neo. If that's true, good job Proton on keeping the Satria name.

proton dah lama diberi masa utk improve…(20 tahun) but still keluar kereta yg org tak nak beli…macam arena…tiara…townbox…..yg peliknya perodua yg baru 10 tahun lebih ..tak byk complain tapi byk booking….

bukan taknak support proton..20 years they should be without problems…but it seems to be worse now…!!!!

its really funny, but in most malaysian forums, and also blogs like paul's website, the only people who usually fight for "freedom of speech", "freedom of opinion" are the ones who post these…

wow…….

it's hot…

the srm totally erased my previous perception of proton's design.

it has a little bit of european style.

i hope that after it is launched, no one will complain about it's QUALITY.

bcoz quality comes first before design.

but i will like to see in future, that proton will produced a powerful, stylish,and high QUALITY four wheel drive (4X4)

The SRM is actually a 2dr hatch(3dr) version of the Gen2, which incidentally, is a 4 door hatch(5dr).

Yes haji, Proton should produce SRM with both 3 and 5 doors like Peugeot 206. So it can cater a lot more enthusiast, both married and single person.

haji — Sun, 20 Nov 2005 09:46:46 +0000

I read yesterday's The Sun. Business section. proton spokeperson said this SRM will be launced in Jan 06. What makes me think is it clearly stated 1.2l version. Is it gonna be the same engine with TRM a.k.a Savvy?Typo error maybe.

haji — Sun, 20 Nov 2005 09:44:42 +0000

Daihatsu make 3 doors Mira in their country. Due to our local need and after market surveying, Kancil become 5 doors car. Is SRM shorter than Kancil? I don't think so. They should come out with 5 and 3 doors version. More compelling isn't it. Just look at Rio. I don't like Gen2 very much. It does not have the right balance and proportion. The copycat of mazda 6 hatchback. I saw it.

Front and back view without disguise is in one of Paul's older posts, a lil bit of clicking (link conveniently provided right below the post) does the trick.

(it's the 4th link provided)

Apparently some commentors don't know what are disguised cars and spy-shots. Dude, this is not the final version of the car. Dirty as it may appear, it's not supposed to be recognisable. Heck, for all you know it's not a Proton. But for a trained eye, and the obvious cues, this is 90% a Satria replacement model.

How many of you actually purchase a proton and tell yourself "This is my temporary car. I'm gonna use it 3-4 years and then change to a better one". It seems to me Protons are usually a 'temporary solution'.

As for the Vios/City competitor, Gen2 may be an answer but we all know where Gen2 ranks, if compared with the Japs.

By the way, a 5-door Satria is plain ridiculous. Not practical. Too short. Get a Gen2 if you want a 5-door hatch.

oppsss.. it's look nice but unfortunely 2-door version only. Maybe out there many ppl like it, but honestly quite troublemsome indeed.

Well the design looked good but the lamp not using LED type as most of the current model do, exp: Myvi. It's looked too dim!

Hope protong really work out this faster…

Iâ€™m eager to see the R3 version. Whatâ€™s on the earth will Tengku Djan do with it.

They should come out with a 5 doors SRM insread.

__________________________________________________________________________

You are not the only one waiting for T Djan to tune the SRM's suspension for the R3 version.

5 door SRM ( hatchback) mmmmm I think the GEN2 aredi fits that criteria.

Honestly there is a market for a two door car. Proton sold tons of Satria before production stopped in March 2005

In a country of 26million, there a quite a number that wants to buy a brand new two door car below RM60k

the r3 gti is priced at around rm80k (i think), which is a collosal rip-off given they used the same old ass engine and there were lack of overall enhancements from the normal gti model.

for 80k i demand brembo brakes and recaro seats goddamnit.

60-70K ILL GET ONE RIGHT NOW THANK YOU BYE BYE (GTI)

non GTI version prolly around 50K (+ recaro, brembo, turbo, leather, momo worth around less than 20K right)

___________________________________________________________________________Er, Swee

If you ever get to see the Satria R3 up close you'll probably notice it does have Recaro SR4 seats, Momo Tuner Steering Wheel, Yokohama Advan Neova AD07 tyres(16") Mintex M1144 Brake pads, DBA Crossed drilled brake disc. Not to mention the superbly tuned suspension. On a car that was RM77,888.00. which in case you didn't know was only RM3k+ more than the GTi.

If you are a true car/motorsports enthusiast you will know these items listed above cost quite a lot.

I know coz I own and drive boththis and the GTi and the Satria R3 ROCKS.

Due to cost effective practise,Proton use the same floor plan for Waja, Gen2 and SRM. This SRM will share some chassis with Gen2. The engine will be the same what we find in Gen2.The GTi version will have Kleeman's turbo kit (hope so). The sport rim is the blink2 one. I'm eager to see the R3 version. What's on the earth will Tengku Djan do with it. For young people and Ah Bengs this is a value for money car. i thjink Proton don't really do a market survey. The model is just for a niche market. They should come out with a 5 doors SRM insread. listen to the people who gonna buy and use the car.What are the marketing division of Proton are doing.

i am actually very excited about this. imagine how it would feel driving this with the new AMT transmission with roughly (suspectedly) 200HP gti.. can someone say ITS A GTR? (lol)

but all jokes aside i think it looks pretty cool, except the front (proton fronts are always so ugly, must be the logo). im more concerned with the interior and the overally build though. not to mention the price! the r3 gti is priced at around rm80k (i think), which is a collosal rip-off given they used the same old ass engine and there were lack of overall enhancements from the normal gti model.

for 80k i demand brembo brakes and recaro seats goddamnit. i sincerely hope the Proton management do themselves (and us) a little favour by pricing this baby more competitvely than its predecessor…

as a malaysian i could always settle for a little less because thats the nature of the enviroment we live in , but i guess its a little time we get our bang for the buck. price it well or bust proton!

60-70K ILL GET ONE RIGHT NOW THANK YOU BYE BYE (GTI)

Its a GTR!
