[jambunk86]

if u like it then get it...
if u dont get the mitsu version.

simple aint it? ;)

 

[DanLoveAde]

LoL if I have a choice of choosing Proton and Mitsu even though its the same model and entirely almost the same ... I will still get Mitsu ...

 

[cheechain]

At the end - Malaysian are the victims bec we pay Toll, Subsidy for the petrol keep on dropping,
We pay higher price for imported cars, public Transport getting worst, Taxi rate are too high.. Roads are not safe to drive. I dont have to give exmple on that , just look the number of accidents and deaths!
Imprt tax on car spare parts damn high though..

So looking between Proton and Mits... We are the loosers.. :)

Has, have & will always be copycats.....Untill today still cant even design & build a solid performance car or a normal family car without collaborating with other car manufacturers. 1960's US were building "American Muscle" cars and Proton still today is way behind by 50 light years...Well done Proton...others advance Proton are still in 1st gear...How pathetic & sad...

Why buy Proton and not Mitsu?
Why buy Perodua Myvi and not Toyota Passo?
Why buy Naza Forte and not Kia Forte?

Based on Mitsu website http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.my/showroom-lancer-langkawi.php
The original price for Lancer GT 2.0 is only RM71k, so without Proton, that's the real price we should get the Lancer, and not rebadged and increase it to RM95k.

a dog barking the tree....no matter how the tree still stands.
anyway keep barking....:)

funny thing is seem nobody understands the meaning of rebadge and copy. maybe too obsessed with piracy/pirated goods...so everything they see almost or similar to something is called COPY. correct me if i am wrong..thanks

as mentioned a million times, its your money and choice....don buy it thats all......but i am buying it...:)

i 100% agree!

r u sure?

Why when proton rebadge lancer its copy, but then perodua rebadge passo no one say anything? -.-

People seems to have greatly misled with the taxes imposed on imported cars. Well,if the gov decide to uplift the import tax,that would lead to a disruptive chain reaction. For example, insurance and roadtax (and perhaps income tax) gonna be way higher than current rate. So don't just calculate adjusted car prices,keep in mind other factors as well.

1 goes down,other goes up! Gov hav to balance out and maintain their figures.Shortage of income from imported car taxes,would be fill up by other sectors. It would be a massacre to our macroeconomic if we liberated car manufacturer sector when we're not properly ready to compete with international manufacturer. Think of it this way, Thailand financial sector in 1996-97. Complete meltdown. And that will happen if we were not to protect Proton.

Case study:
Example, in Uk. Yes,u can get a Maserati GT for a merely 55k pound sterling. Yet,why doesn't London's road full of supercars? If u do the math, a person with a monthly income of 3k per month (36k yearly),would easily take up car loans and buy a Maserati. But why isn't this the case? Income tax imposed 20-40% (monthly). Car loans (7-9.5%). Insurance (go google). Daily congestion charge within London 8.70 pound (for entering London city). No free sidewalk parking. Etc etc...

Dun be fooled by just car prices. Its just a fraction of a much grater cost, that we should be thankful. Just my humble opinion.

Front looks better than Lancer. But don't know why don't put a snail on the 2.0 model to justify the price

To be honest, I rather proton rebadge 3 series eagle eye or C class peanut eye

perodua, daihatsu ,toyota n subaru...are 1 big family

 

[peter liew]

this we call malaysia boleh~~~

 

[^pomen_GTR^]

naza 100%copy how?

mazda n ford years back copy how???

 

[rosely1971]

Haha, so damn funny reading all the fuzz. Who the f*** care if it's copy, rebadge, proton, mitsu emblem etc. I only want the 1.8 4B10 Mivec Manual. Mitsu sucks for not selling the manual version. Buy the manual and play with microtec, add camshaft etc. 5 years down the road, transplant EVO 10, damn. Manual 1.8 can tapau the 2.0 CVT easily.

 

[eci4ever]

i'll wait second hand only.. overprice maa..

 

[khellvinne]

perodua, daihatsu ,toyota n subaru...are 1 big family

Perodua and Subaru 1 family too?
then why perodua no "proop proop proop" sound ar?:hmmmm:

 

[Munmax]

Just read test drive by Motor Trader. They say very impressive on handling and built.
1.8 manual and 2.0 cvt on offer.
Its vios / city money for altis / civic.
Proton under Syed Zainal (ex perodua) is a different proton under Mahalel.
Does anyone realize?

History lesson is a must pass now!!
Japanese and Koreans were also copycats. Look at lexus with all the design cues from mercedes.
Should go tho China motorshow and see the real copycats!!
CRV clones, and a car with Exterior camry and interior from Honda! They practically copy instead of paying royalty.
Rebadge or base model ? It's a non issue in automotive industry.
Audi A3 / Seat Ibiza / Skoda Fabia are golf underneath.
Mazda 2 + Ford Fiesta
Kia once rebadge mazda car, the 121
Holden, vauxhall are GM rebagde.
Not to mention Alpina, Ruf, Brabus, Carlsson, Wald etc. Of course its different level from a volume base car.

So Other manufacturers can but proton cannot? Why?

Smart guys please?

 

[^pomen_GTR^]

Perodua and Subaru 1 family too?
then why perodua no "proop proop proop" sound ar?:hmmmm:

well...technically,perodua doesn't have boxer engine...but if kancil exhaust patah maybe u'll get closer....



and technically speaking also....subaru owner by toyota...perodua also owned by toyota...one big happy family mah....

Yeap, Subaru is owned by Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI) and Toyota has a small % of shares in FHI.

 

[jimmy_ray]

our gov said they cant control new car price in Malaysia, but when the Proton launch the "inspira", a big slap on their face. Just because of a proton badge stick on the Lancer bumber, the car instantly cheaper RM40K, who control the new car price in Malaysia actually?.."Smart Guy Gets It"

 

[devious17]

"It's OEM collaboration,not a rebadge" - WTF? what's the diff? To a commoner we still see a proton badge on a car that looks very alike a mitsu lancer aka REBADGED.
