If I Were An Automotive Engineer
This is a general car talk thread that reveals ideas, opinions from all ZTHians on creating own car.
We dont know whether Proton guys are coming down to this ZTH.com forum for investigating, and if so .. please take this thread as an idea.
Many thinkings are better than one.. so, let me start.
If i were an automotive engineer of Proton, i would:
1. Do a solid tubbed car, i dont mind of other parts, the capsule where people sits in a car should be crash proofed. Other parts i dont mind loosing in an accident.
2. Do a rubber bumper, remember those old cars? nowadays our car lack of bumper safety, all are plastics now and easily broken rather than doing its own named work. A bumper should "BUMP" and NOT broken!
3. A 150ps road car with limitation of 180kmh cut-off is suitable for our Malaysian road. We arent going to race on public road, right? we need use as a transportation and make-up our ride nicely.
4. Make a fair and square MP3, MP4 and a passenger LCD's as a must for all Proton cars, this is to avoid people stealing from others, right? .. if all have LCD's and fair car stereo's ... why should others want to break in? ..
5. Mild tints, such as 25% tinted by Proton themselves. So, no need to worry those JPJ's interrupting us. This could cut down JPJ work force too.
6. Proton cars must be equpped with light accesories, such as a two inch spoiler, side linings, better plate holder similar to Japan .. seen Japan number plates? ..its universal and sealed by goverment to tat car... fancy plates can be avoided and summons are reduced.
7. Proton should bring up their own tuning sides which offers aftermarket accesories, such as spoilers, bumpers and much more. Something like Nissan's Nismo division. We all can reduce those JPJ's stops and have a legal approved bodykits .. rite?
8. Easy and mild body designs .. something like not like Kancil or a new Perdana V6. Average body size will make everyone can drive, like girls and guys. Easy parking too.. this can avoid our wives crashing when wan to park our cars.
9. Cut down those clips! .. put on some bolts and nuts so .. a stronger feel to the car. Commonly a Wira's bumper will drop down with a mild crash .. shit!
10. Lastly .. affordable pricing .. Cut down those 7 or 9 years repayment! ... who wants to pay until 7years or a 9years to own a car? .. I dont see my ownership on my grant authority paper, its only owned by EON bank! ... not me... i cant proudly say that this is my car, ... i only say "Im just driving and the car is owned by bank for the rest 9years!" make it like RM50k to RM60k car .. and cuts down from our EPF or CPF (Singaporeans).
Bonus : Make a white colour headlamp vision .. i only see orange/yellowish on all cars. Avoid HID's
