Great taste by the way. --------------------------------------------------- Come on la, there is a slight resemblance to Gen2 if you look carefully coz the raked rear windshield sloped steeply. Haih, it doesn't mean that BMW copy Gen2, but when Proton looks like other car, bash here bash there. Malaysians, no wonder our country's going down the drain. The people, and I'm not referring to the politicians alone, but almost every single Malaysian is responsible due to our actions! KO said,

Remove the car's engine, instal a mini wind power propeller on the car, when the car moves, creates wind, propeller spins and thus charges the battery. Done!!! I think i solved the energy crisis for the automotive sector. lol. I got a better idea, lets use the power of the wind.

For car manufacturers, it's not ONLY about saving the world, but not to depend too much on oil! Remember the previous oil prices shooting sky high? If they don't do something now, the same thing will happen again! This is called planning way ahead. OPEC guys will be F**ked come the next generation! This X6 I would call 'The REAL ultimate driving machine!' Most people miss the point about Hybrids.
