dear dear : Proton MPV = Proton Exora


Proton has announced the name for the new Proton MPV - the Proton Exora! The Exora is based on the name of the Ixora flower, with the tagline “Keriangan Keluarga”. The name was picked by the Name The Proton MPV competition grand prize winner Norsholihan Bt Abdul Eanich, who also gets to drive around the vehicle she named once the people carrier is launched. Proton’s new 7-seater MPV will be launched sometime in this year.

Proton has announced that the MPV will be priced at under RM 80,000 and will be available in 5 colours - Genetic Silver, Tranquility Black, Blue Haze, Pyrite Brown and Gaia Blue. In terms of safety, all variants will have at least 2 SRS airbags as standard, but this will be as far as it will go in terms of total airbag count. The Proton Exora will be built in the Shah Alam plant. Cost of development was slightly over RM 450 million.

finally Proton MPV is named as Proton Exora, it looks elegant overall, driven by 1.6 campro cps and price is tagged under rm80k .the steering just looks like the new honda city's steering and i wonder if the grip feeling the same.. keke...

i wonder if to get one replacement for my dad since his aged iswara's maintenance cost is getting higher & higher, yet i have to ask myself, does my family really need a MPV? since there is only 4 members + my wife in my family and i oredi got my xiao ke ai. hmm.... it is really not a good option, maybe go for persona or waja cps better which could save 20k or more (stupid piggy gov gives me the only option: local manufacturing car, bxxody hxll !@#$35!#$^!@)

well, currently dun have extra $$ for the car replacement, still saving for my sg hdb deposit & wedding budget. sometimes, i ask myself, will i look like a typical singaporean who always think of $$ first?! well, if u r one of my housemates, u will know this is not the $$ problem & how desperate we wanna move out.. @!%@#6*%$#^
