[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 443028, member: 15"] I always thought that was the right direction to go, more so when Mitsubishi wasn't really a willing partner in terms of technology transfer. The problem was Proton wasn't making any headways with their own R&D, even the much vaunted and publicised Campro engine is nothing better than the proven VTEC, MIVEC and VVTI with millions spent, and the initial batch suffers from drivability problems (little torque on the low-mid RPM). Simply put, Proton didn't make cars that the masses want and most bought it because they had no choice due to the tariffs. Take a page from the Koreans....heard the Forte got a 6 months waiting period. [/QUOTE]
