Quoting Lancermania : Trusting our made in Malaysia car is nt an idiot, those who can’t even thrust product from thier own country is the truly idiot, you’re the want who can’t grow up, you should shame of your self! End Quote /

I cant help but to LOL on this. LANCERmania is being patriotic. You should revise your nick to something that is actually produced in Malaysia, e.g dodolmania, belacanmania …and so on. Point is, Proton needs to die for the rest of us to have affordable cars.

Truly Ah Beng’s Gen-2, come from Ah Beng’s great grandfather’s land. looks hideous to me. Trying to emulate MG rover grille. Those Lotus Engineering emblem looks like coming out from Brothers’ shop DIY.

That is good news that Proton car can sold to oversea like a hotcake under Lotus Engineered named.

Maybe later, Exora will sent to China to rebadged to Europstar brand in the name qingnian lianhua Jingda, Youngman Lotus Competing Big, Europstar Exora.

Jingda in Hokkien nearly mean sure big, really big, truly big, sangat besar, besar gila…

Isnt Lotus is belong to Proton? Why not Europestar is engineered by Lotus of Proton? Qingnian Proton Jingsu? Or some sound like Lotus Proton, Proton Lotus? Gen-2 and Persona are rebadge from Lotus but not truly own by Proton?[/quote]

u know, "Proton" name itself already used by another company in china.. it's not about who engineered who… it's about branding… if i'm using "aenz" name for my electric components, can any foreign company use that "aenz" name also??[/quote]

Oh, this is about branding. Lotus in the China Branded Youngman Lotus. Thats why in the history of Lotus on the Youngman website never talk about Proton.

I think Jingsu in Hokkien mean truly loser.

Rebaged Persona is Europstar Persona.

PLEASE proton throw away ALL your designer staff…

Hire others like what KIA doing….perhaps from MAZDA [/quote]

i certainly din't agree with you on this, our own design is MUCH better than this, Proton is doing much better now compare to last time, hei, support our own Malaysian designer… don't always look down to our made in Malaysia things, sometimes our is better than others..

Kawan, later u will got bang by saying such words.

We are in totally different market with them. Here we want quality, there they just want the money. So ppl will start changing what so ever material & design with the cheapest price they can get. So at the end the parts not even lasted for what they build for.

Agreed with you LL!

[quote comment="221935"][quote comment="221827"]Later we can get cheaper part for proton Made in China[/quote]

Why not, if the quality is high. Then proton can lower it's price and no more protection.[/quote]

Yes of course, cheaper parts from China, but certainly NOT of quality. Do you guys know that our market is flooded with lots of FAKE (read IMITATION) parts from China? The quality might not be there, but the similarity of parts manufactured fooled even my trained eyes, initially. One example is the fuel-pump module for the Waja/Gen2. At a glance, it's similar to the genuine product, but on further examination, the flaws showed. Initially I heard from the grapevine that this particular fake lasted only for about a month or so, but there had been cases where it only lasted A DAY. 24 HOURS! A genuine fuel-pump module would cost between RM480.00 – RM550.00 w/o installation (depending on where you buy it), whereas a fake would go for between RM300.00 – RM 400.00. Warranty period for genuine is 6 months, fake is negotiable, but usually a month. So guys, get your parts from a reputable parts shop or your trusted mechanic/technician. There are lots of them out there, honest parts shop and mechanics/technicians.

Chiao!

On the Youngman Auto official Website, I got some information,

Europestar Jingsu is Gen-2 rebadging hatchback car, Europestar Jinyue is Persona rebadging sedan car. Europestar is engineered by Lotus.

In names of chinese character, Qingnian Lianhua Jinsu means Youngman Lotus Competing Speed, Qingnian Lianhua Jinyue means Youngman Lotus Competing Fun. I dont see any Proton there…

I could be wrong, but I always thought the Gen-2 rear is inspired by the Lotus Exige. The flatten-circular sphere incorporate the round rear light cluster. While the front-end is a WAU-inspired design grill. No matter how you like to bash the Gen-2, it is still a handsome car with flowing lines and coherant design langauge, it didn't meant to have sharp edges like Ford Focus or buldging shoulders like Volvos. With the face-lift version of Gen-2 CPS, I thought it is pretty good compare to alot of Korean or even Japanese car makers. Still I won't buy one because of quality issues and too rakish roofline (which was address in Persona). The rebagde is a mockery to the original design but then again, business is business, what matters is what sells with the Chinese. But making harsh comment about the badge is unjustified, what you mean by communist design? Red? Hammer and a sickle? There is no such thing as communist design except they plaster or engrave Chairman Mao face all over the car. Lets be reasonable and intelligent in making a comment so everyone can learn a thing or two from all the user here.
