Codename Proton BLM is rumoured to be launch in early January 2008, as much per said on others blog such as paultan’s blog is now open for booking here. The SAGA replacement model does have a bit of vios design in it. guess proton now do admire the Toyota family.
, but some people said the design is a cut and paste of Mahindra Renault Logan . Which i think is similar based on all the Spyshot posted on the internet..
So what do we expect from this new proton? i do really hope that they do present and less trouble this time compared the Campro based model. But i still prefer my wira i guess…haha..wira design (similar to evo 2) is totally awesome for driver age between 20-30.

This is quite a story by proton insider himself… i dunno why so many people condemn about proton! Hey cmon lar… Proton is our first national car brand and Proton is the only LOCAL car manufacturer that manufactured their own engine! Read the story, dont condemn Proton. Read read and READ! Im proud to be Malaysian who drive a Malaysian car and yes my car is manufactured by proton is far the best Malaysian car compared to Perodua or Naza. Although i admit proton do have lesser resale value compared to Perodua but hey, im own a Proton.. DO YOU???

Assalamualaikum,
Yang ni saya kena jawab la sebab banyak sangat misinformation.
Biasanya information yang berpindah dari satu mulut ke satu mulut
yang lain akan berubah menjadi sensasi. Itu lah masyarakat kita. Kita
bukan mendapat firsthand info tapi berdasarkan cerita yang
telah ditokok tambah. Ini dia cerita dari orang dalam
yang duduk ditengah-tengah R&D PROTON.
"Saya ada kenalan dari kastam boleh confirmkan
perkara ni.. member saya kerja kastam kat kelang dan
beliau sendiri yang maklumkan yg salah satu tugas dia
adalah buat checking penerimaan barangan proton untuk
di pasangkan di negara ni. Satu kontena enjin je..
manakala kontena lain adalah pintu, body dan
sebagainya. sama lah dengan kereta lain juga."
Kalau kita lalu kat kawasan glenmarie tu, akan
ternampak lah satu tanda… Kilang Enjin Proton. Tanda
tu tak duduk kat situ untuk suka suka je. Kalau kita
jengok kat dalam…. Boleh nampak besi cair yang
dituang kedalam acuan untuk membuat enjin block.
Memang proton ada mengimpot enjin tapi dari kelas 1.2
dan 2 liter. 1.2liter untuk Savvy (enjin Renault) dan
2.0liter untuk Perdana. Tapi untuk enjin 1.3, 1.5, 1.6
proton buat sendiri. Untuk pintu pulak… hanya
kereta-kereta Perdana sahaja yang proton beli pintu
dari Mitsubishi. For your information, Untuk membuat
pintu sahaja memerlukan dekat 20 acuan. Bayangkan lah
4 pintu. Modal itu shaja sudah hampir RM50 juta. So
untuk kereta yang volume kecil, kita beli dari luar.
Untuk kereta Isawara, Wira, Waja, Gen2, Savvy… 100%
body dibuat di Malaysia ……….
