If this is going to be made, it should be fitted with 6-speed manual gearbox. Barulah power!!!

wow~~~!!!!! i think this is the most wanted proton car i ever seen !!!!!!!
clean profile and neat too!! GOOD!!like an European style two thumbs up, but i wish this neo would be in production line….
Theophilus Chin, i guess that u’re the guy that suppose to design cars,really good job. i like it.
p/s: back to reality, if proton really launch a car like this, how much(rm) wud it be? hmm…. i’ll pay 90k for this car.
brembo, 1.8liter turbo charge with big inter cooler, bucket seat, 17″ or 18″ alloys,carbon hood……etc….. wow!!! perfect.AND THIS IS WHAT WE CALL A BULLET,THIS IS A BULLET.A MACHINE THAT CAN SATISFY YOUNGSTER DESIRE.

on d oder hand, if proton could produce sport car like this i’m sure that ILLEGAL cars modification in our country will obviosly DECREASE..

cheers

tec96248, dun worry, artist’s like Theo have learned to accept criticsm…
btw art is subjective…what good to may be bad to others…

like my russian teacher always says: We improve because we[everyone] are/is different in every sense.

not bad especially the bumper and the hood. nice design

I agree with marmitecrab. Maybe Theo just interpret this one directly from the spyshot, minus the the screws. Come on Theo, maybe you’ve done something better than this one. Show us!

Maru, I like the vent you did on the Neo. But other than that, it looks too Satria GTi’ish to me. You are carrying too much of the previous GTi’s onto this one. Should’ve make it with fresher looks. But overall, it’s a nice piece of work. Perhaps, you are too focus on the hood and the rims went out of propotion. Hehehe. Keep it coming bro!

i like the look of the hood .

The higher the expectations, the bigger the disappointment..

This sums up what I think of Proton, but hmm.. A 1.8l NA Producing 185HP? – Not really possible I’d say.. If it’s a 1.8l Turbo I’d say otherwise, note that the current Merc E200K is a 1.8 Engine, and it produces 135HP..

great job….theo! like it!

Hi Theo! I admire your skills. Howevey, I pray hard the new GTi doesn’t look like that. It’s very predictable and very very ugly to say the least. And I think you forgot the side skirts. I’m hoping the new one will have a bigger honeycomb grille, it needs to suck in a lot of air. Of course, Proton might shock us all by including AWD,LSD,Traction control and perhaps a HUD?

how about fitting gen2 side mirrors on that

Wow!!!! clap clap.. Very Nice… Nicer than the original Neo…

There is a distinction between what could be and what we think it will be. Theo has done a good job on what we think it will be. As for what it could be, only Proton knows.

Theo, can you pull out all the stops and show us what you think the Neo should be? I think we would all be interested to see how far you can go with design…

ok laa… but at 1st glance it looked as normal neo….

Theo, maybe you would wanna put bigger spoiler & add body stripe stickers..

Hmm…boring design by Theo..sorry 2 say.

Front Bumper looks like the SEAT LEON CUPRA’s. Side sills is standard. No aggreisve rear wing. etc.

Sorry Theo but your rendition this time is not so great. I’ve seen, during the NEO Launch, the Neo by R3. Now that car is nice.

Take a look at Audi S3, Fords Fiesta ST, Focus ST and Vauxhall VXR for more inspiring designs.

Sorry theo…

your rendition is wide of the mark of the real neo GTi especially the front bumper…

he’s done a clean work but no..not impressed at all with the design..aftermarket bodykit shop can do better than this

Good job Theophilus Chin. However, if you can put in the screw type fenders, wider rear spoiler, a bit lower side skirting and side moulding / protection at the door like the one on the current Satria GTi, then this Satria Neo GTi will looks more aggressive.

I hope I can see another of you work. Keep on the good job.

The artist’s impression looks better than the previous spyshot. But, i have to agree that it will still look better if the trademark screw holes on the wheel arches are there. If the Neo GTI ever comes out, i don’t think it will have a turbo. A 185 bhp 1.8 CPS engine is possible. Just my opinion.

wahlaueh…
good jod, Theophilus.
i wonder P1 will take consider the customers with 175cm above in height to sit proper in the satria NEO… I am 178cm & my head is touching the roof top when i sit straight in a NEO at showroom. Even savvy have better head room…

He misses the screws at wheel arch. Still not adorable. I think it the real GTi will have some of the R3 prototype feature. By the way, the old Satria R3 is actually black GTi. Except for the CF hood and spoiler.

good try but needs more work. like some of u said here, it looks too plain. I thought everybody else in malaysia are better at cars than proton people? So, prove it!
