No country in this world is perfect. We have our own set of problems too. Lets not laugh at others before we solve ours. Just for a start, we should stop fighting and bickering among ourselves.

Seriously I welcome this move.

 

As a neighour of MY, it's sort of exciting to see someone in the region come out with something that can rally with the big boys.

 

But having said that, it's not going to be "all boleh" for the proton team. They've got a hugh hurdle to climb and if they are not careful, they may be wiped out of the WRC season even before they finish the opening leg.

 

WRC is tough and the routes and treacherous. When SX4 Super 2000 and the suzuki WRC team join in 2008, they had HELL of a season. I mean they are not new players, their JWRC experience won them titles, but WRC proves to be a whole new level for them.

 

So I wish the MY team all the best. Wonder how much punishment their Satria Super 2000 can take. If their Satria took it well, I'll have no worries choosing a MIM Satria Neo over a MIJ SX4.

Satria Neo the raw version handling is superb.But interior wise is a let down.Too cramp especially the rear.But nice looking car overall.Hope the CPS version come to SG. :wub:

Most of these things are funded by private sponsors, not government.

any reviews on the SG satria neo?

 

always like malaysia made rides, so far, i know that satria neo is kinda underpowered compared to the cps engine.

and manual is much advisable compared to the auto; 5 gear VS 4 gear.

 

maybe i would put it how reliable is this make?

currently drive a savvy, thinking of upgrading to a 2 door wannabe [laugh]
