Proton DOES NOT make cars of this segment. PERIOD. Back to this, i see too much of Audi-ness in this car.. but it looks really good, bold and masculine.. perhaps something that's required in this segment for it to sell i guess Sigh.. i'm tired of ppl condemning proton in every other blardy post..!

I feel KIA is totally out of our league already if not surely better design than european marquees and even the rising sun. Don't compare man this to honda ,mercedes , toyota and etc, definitely this car wins in the looks department. ENuff said. I am also curious as how the real production model would look like. Just when I thought the designs ala current camry and accord has already reached the new sedan design threshold, KIA comes up with theirs that totally beats their jap counterparts out of the water. Drooool…….

Well fellow Malaysians.... lets buy our products as well, but on the other end P1 and P2 needs to improve as well. I bet Malaysian will buy Malaysian product if the quality is as same as international standards... such as better equipment level etc... I know the more features u put in the car the more expensive it becomes, but please remember if every feature is compulsory for each car produce the lower the part price is due to ammortization leverage factor. So P1 and P2 pls stop producing suicidal cars e.g. bare cars... equipped all cars with ABS, EBD and Air bag. And the RTD must enforce all cars coming to Malaysia in 2011 must have ABS, EBD and airbag. It doesnt make sense one car fully equipped with everything being hit by bare car from behind simply because of slippery road condition. It still doesnt bring down the accident statistic. Well Paul,
