another thing, is putra same like the gti? which is said to be using siemens ecu on production of after 2000?
i hearing rumours and replies dat those engines using the siemens ecu dun perform well..is it true? does it makes a big different in the engine and its performance?
and personally speaking i'm really in for a putra.. :P
but still considering it..eheh...
any advice and tips on how to find a nice & almost perfect putra? what should i take notice when inspecting & testing the car?
i,ve found 1 and had called the owner to see the car personally.. a grey(original paint)putra year 2000..price was set at rm45500..mileage 100100..15'' rims..normal bodykit..& blaupunkt sound system..(cdplayer headunit not included)
does the price worth it? im aware of that a year 1999/2000 GTI is almost the same price range..

But anyway, a Putra is a car you buy to mod, esp bodykits, rims, decals, ICE, spoilers etc. Power-wise, the venerable MMC 1.8 DOHC is good enough. Be proud since most people overseas are stuck with 1.5 SOHC Mirage Asti's.
Satrias r humble hot hatches, putra is coupe, both r different segments. I personally think coupe looks better with those longer wheel base, but proton puts more efforts in making satria, so they have got lotus r3, clubsports, whereas putra only comes in normal spec. Need modifications to make good looking putra. I would get putra coz more rare compare to satria, but i dun know is the parts for putra getting harder to get? Or they share same engine parts with wira/satria?
