salam. persona elergance yang baru ada kelebihan dari segi pecutan dan rupa luaran. bonet memang luas dan dalaman yang kemas.tetapi ada bahagian yang perlu diperbaharui seperti sistem brek. brek berbungi apabila ditekan sewaktu hendak berhenti dan mengeluarkan debu hitam pada rim walaupun baru 2 hari digunakan.body masih bersih tetapi rim sudah kotor.ini berbeza dengan model proton yang terdahulu yang kualiti brek yang lebih baik. kerusi pemandu juga ‘ menekan’ bahagian belakang sekiranya memandu jarak jauh. suspensi juga agak beralun jika melalui jalan kurang rata.

Guys,

I dont know anyone notice way before or not. I went to Proton Show Room and thought of getting a Persona myself.

I am totally surprised to see a major discrepancy of placement of Steering and the Meter Panel. Both element is not aligned to the center!!! I was truly disappointed with Proton and went on…

This shown that there is lacking in some kind of coordination among themselves. (Designer – Engineer – Mechanic – Manufacturer ?? )

Anyone can provide a good answer so the confidence would be built up for proton again.

Thanks Paul!!

hai joshua, actually not really undertand completely what do u mean, but if u mean the gap between the steering wheel and meter panel, u can adjust it manually using the lever under the steering column. it is a tilt steering, so u can adjust it up and down according to ur preference. if u adjust it to the lowest setting, of course u can see the gap between the steering and the meter panel, if that u mean.

but please give details info or pictures so that we can help u if can…

Like the Persona actually, the ads with pregnant lady shows how Proton emphasize on its Lotus handling features. But Please Proton, change the center console. It just sucks and looks pretty damn cheap. Other than that, thumbs up!

En. Chor, this is only my suggestion > a room for for improvement for proton guys > i’m not comdeming since i got 1 persona and 1all new H brand in my garrage. so if you don’t expericene it yourself, so better try it > which one is better. kalau mcm ni > bg idea pun salah bila proton mau maju > itu belum dikira engine tecnology > byk pengeluar dah pakai timing chain instead of timing belt > do you know that??

saya pun x cakap awak condem proton..actualy awak kena tahu sistem aircond engine campro dahulu sebelum komen macam bunyi macam kereta 60an sama juga macam awak cakap t atau h bagus..kenapa bagus sbb awak tahu banyak pasal kereta tue…XKAN DENGAN BUNYI KITA TAHU KERETA TUE BAIK KE TAK??..timing chain bukan new tech…cuma inprovement tech dari yang lama..bagi dia lebih senyap jer bila dah guna lama.. masih xbanyak beza pun.so better pakai timing belt daripada timing chain..pendapat saya jer..TQ

u still dont get wat i mean on the vw engine related to ur post previously quattro, i mean that whether it is timing belt or timing chain, it doesnt mean it is advanced. still if u didnt notice, even plain campro use drive by wire. in the same category in japanese car in malaysia, only the new honda city start using drive by wire. the other class is civic. only the upper range product for toyota n honda using drive by wire, but plain campro already used it since 2004. so, is it the vios engine or previous honda engine outdated? for me, it is not, the engine still relevant. even the previous vw engine never had valve timing/lift, but they used direct injection.

cps/iafm is not the most advanced engine in its category but it is still releveant n current. for example, vios engine using alluminium block, campro used cast iron, so vios is ahead, vios engine using variable valve timing/dual valve timing whether advance or retard on intake while iafm is variable intake manifold/dual intake manifold whether long or short runner on intake, so its a fair. vios using a normal cable throttle while iafm using electronic throttle, so iafm is a head. so for me, conclusion, it is a fair match. while cps is a different story when it has variable valve lift/dual valve lift n variable intake manifold, both on intake so cps is better than vios engine in term of tech.

yes, i have to agree that proton need to put more sound insulation at the engine bay n firewall. hopefully with the released of campro LE on persona enhancement, heard that they also improving on the NVH also. i also hope, the NVH will be a lot better than the previous persona.

quattro,even vw revert back using timing belt, didnt u notice that ….and thats company who won the best engine 2009. dunno about honda. yes, its good to have a silent engine, but it is about preference. u shud wait for one year before u heard harmonious sound from timing chain engine. my sis has one, toyota vios, when start the engine every morning, it sound like something cracking in the engine, but the engine is still good. it is not the engine, it is the aircond compressor for proton is louder, but as u want a powerful aircond, so need to live with the powerful sound. dont tell me that new h city aircond is more powertul than persona. has driven it, a guud car (NHC), but persona aircond is better cooling compare to it. even if compare to my waja campro. happy motoring

I am currently owning proton persona. Bought for more than 6months, this car is powerful, good in handling and also fast. Overall, this is a good sedan car. This facelift persona like dont have much difference with the old one which is mine.Maybe this car got campro CPS. also nt very sure. For the price ,i got persona instead of myvi. It is much more worth buying a much powerful and safer car. I drove my friend's myvi, totally a scary experience.

what is the purpose of marking – – at the car? anyone?

i found that the front grill is differ… erm..the black tape was there to cover the proton emblem..

__________________________________

the marking are points where gap between the body and bumper are being inspected. Its to check the dimension accuracy of the bumper.

wah.. new design cues and direction for 2010?

if this is what the proton design chief is tweeting about then all guys should tweet that they have a pair of balls in their pants..

anyway.. nice to see that the wing mirrors got bigger, proton should sack all of those responsible for the current gen2 and persona wing mirrors for being unsafe…. maybe the design chief can tweet his own resignation…. btw… can see a golf mk6 reflection – a proper car.

I think it looks rather good. Bring it on par with the luxury car look. Now all it needs is a cream leather interior and it will look great.
