I am just wondering why savvy didn't sale like a hot cake if there is a
lot of improvement said to be seen on it? Why? Why leh?

Hey all proton supporting fella, lets put action to where your heart is.
Let shut the mouth of the basher by buying more Savvy! Let beat the Myvi
sales record!! Common Action Time fella! Clown

No matter how much improvements, if that is not what customers want, the
product will go down to drain. To sell a product, you must know who are
your market and understand what they want. Proton failed in this aspect.

And what makes you think you can do a better sales campaign in here to
sell savvy? Another wrong target.

i hv to agree with kevyeoh,
i think people especially proton cars owners are tired with all the
problem they faced with their before this and now.... no matter what
proton do...what kind of new vehicle they launched.. people will first
see on the bad side instead of the new introduced values added offered by
proton (for savvy case, they claim the body has twice stronger than
ordinary vehicle body)

but for me, i love to see proton to overcome all those bad thoughts by
people in recent future. any suggestion what proton has to up to ??
replace the CEO??

I only know the power of Internet, I always thinking, maybe most of the
basher in autoword is from Perodua Marketing, what we heard/read cannot
trusted 100%, else like without brain.

from the test drive of savvy ... too early to tell its ruggedness in terms
of the usual power-windows/engine mounting/engine problem ...

proton had 20 years and they blown them away ...

to earn back the goodwill it takes more than just sales/advertising
gimmicks to win back consumers' heart ...

by just selling over 100,000 cars per annum and the ability to have a
profit of RM800 million is bloody marvelous ... this hasn't include the
amount ppl like us got ######ed for the RM1500 alloy rims and RM200 rubber
mat and finance/insurance levy/incentives when agents push sales ... minus
also the amount the bank is ENRICHED by just approving a 90% loan for 9
years at 3.75% per annum

also spare parts from ACCIDENTAL broken door/power window trim ???

how much per car in that case is Proton getting ??? at least convetionally
30%-50 depending on which model ...
