2016 Proton Perdana out now - National flagship sedan evolved

[Izso]

Last time, many Proton inspira owners convert to Mitsu Lancer look....
Let see if any geniuses would convert this Perdana back to Honda.....hehehhhe...

Nah. I'd be more impressed with geniuses converting their Hondas to Perdanas.

This car is overpriced. I admit that I have not seen the real thing or tested it, but at first glance I wont be so interested into it already because of the price. They should try to make the 2.0L variant lesser that 100k to sell. Perhaps 105k range is still ok, and 2.4L variant around 120k. Then those who likes big cars but got no money and want to act like they have money will consider this car.

Perhaps when P1 plonk in their new 2.0L T engine then its a diff story. Two things will happen. People buy because it is Turbo, and they don't buy because it is fresh from the lab.

No use with the new engine, because the car overall is lacking. Keyless start, remote start, 6 air bags... the whole package isn't there. Civic is so well spec, even versus entry level BMW and Mercedes.

I mean, if you wanna bang a chick for 45 minutes, sure, all you need is a big rack (or ass if you're that sorta guy). So maybe that 2.0L T engine would get you excited for a while.

But if you wanna spend so much money, and commit a few years to one girl, she better have the whole package, not just a pair of jugs to look at. Cause after a while, you want more than just the jugs, I mean, engine. You want creature comfort, you want convenience, you want the bloody cake and to eat it as well.

Inspira quite close to Lancer and easier to convert....

That was why I taunting some individual to do it........Mana-mana tau, with Malaysia Boleh spirit......This proton can look like Honda.....

I read it somewhere last time that a real Mitsu Evo was converted to Proton Wira.....Just to poke fun or something....

When the wajalution boys see this, they'll scratch their heads and de-mod their ride the next day.

Actually, whilst I don't care the new Perdana is just a rebadged older model Accord, I do care that it's priced high and is in the bracket where there's just too many better alternatives.

If they sold this car cheaper, perhaps sub 100k, I think they'd do well. And probably get a helluva lot less flak.

Now I am wondering is this the real CT9A Evo VII or it is just a Lancer Cedia... But judging from the rims and intercooler, it does look like a real Evo.

You're right. The old Perdana is around sub 100k as well. At that time, there is less competitors in the market unlike today.

I have even checked for the price of Accord in USA. The Accord selling at USA is around 22k-24k USD. 24k USD is RM98k here and that one is the 2.4 litre variant...

Seems like malaysia folks always get to own the low-spec version, with higher price tag of the car. Compared to what is offered between US and Malaysia. oh, well.....:rolleyes:
