    I am a Neo driver myself and I know how a Neo can perform.
    Lets compare it this way, a brand new Neo CPS is RM57k for a manual. The R3 Lotus Edition is 115k.
    From what I heard from one of the Proton guys in Pavilion (I was there after the launch yesterday),
    he said Öhlins DFV (Dual Flow Valve) fully adjustable coil-over suspension + four-pot AP Racing calipers are already RM30k+.
    RM57k+30k=RM87k.
    Plus the additionals, carbon fibre hood, R3 stuffs ( R3 Titanium Exhaust Headers, R3 Alloy Underdrive Pulleys, an R3 Tuned
    Exhaust System, R3 Carbon Fiber Airbox & R3-tuned camshaft) plus this and that as well as R3 tuned, don't these account for the leftover RM28k?
    If these aren't enough, only 25 units of the R3 Lotus Edition will be produced. Not limited enough?

    I would buy it if I have the money comparing to Civic (no offense to Civic owners)


    Yes correct. But those suspensions and brakes are a killer to service. If an average joe can manage to get one, he would be shocked to find out the brake pad price. And Ohlins? How many Ohlins dealers you know in Malaysia? Hell even Koni & Tokico aftermarket is scarce and only 2 dealers around.

    Well the reason to compare with a Civic is, because of the price tag. In the end it not really a good comparison for the current 4 door civic. But you compare to the old EG EF civics and even DC Integra, then the NEO is not good bargain. 25 cars with unproven record on track. While many wins for the Integra and Civics on track since its heydays. And its still competative now. So you are actually buying a blinged up DD and not track aces car. So what if the ride is by lotus? Its is still not a lotus. Still not!! You approach people like Jay Leno and Bernie and tell them its only 25 in the world, see if they buy it or not, even if ti is loose change for them?

    You got your point. All it comes down to is individual's preference. We should be happy of our national car maker, Proton while some other countries don't even have their own national car. Plus Tengku Djan as the head of R3 and 4th best drifter in the world (correct me if I'm wrong), IMO this car won't be that bad.
