[QUOTE="faisal, post: 611771, member: 6000"] What's the big deal with using another manufacturer's engine or platform? And Parts sharing is common for a manufacturers to steamline their range of products. The previous Boxster and 996 Carrerra shares the same headlamps. The new Mini Cooper (RM190k+,parent company BMW) uses an old bomb Chrysler (parent company Daimler-Chrysler) engine made in Mexico. The All Mighty Range Rover uses a BMW 4.4 ltr V8. Ford and PSA Group (Peugeot/Citroen) work together to build a common diesel engine. The Skoda, Seat Cordoba, VW Golf, Audi A3 all use the same platform and engine, with different state of tune.i.e 150bhp-225bhp. (ps they all use the same steering wheel, only different is the centre boss and surfacing) PSA and Toyota develope their new city car together. All these manufacturers are the Top 10 Auto comapnies in the world. Toyota (multiple factories around the world) is so cash rich they do not need funding for their Formula One team. Yet they work wit other manufacturers. So why when Proton (20 yrs old) buys an engine or platform off other companies or share parts from other models people comment ? [/QUOTE]
