Lancer Price Tag

It only cost USD19,115 in USA. If you do simple conversion with USD1 = RM3.50, it only cost RM66,903. So, just image with RM67K you get a full spec Lancer, do you think Proton still can survive? Anyway, we need to pay a whopping RM48,000 in price different, for new Mitsubishi Lancer with less features compare to US model.

From the LancerProject.com gallery page, you able to find a few great and high quality wallpapers of Mitsubishi Lancer per below.

Perkinsonline, if not doing that, how to compete with Honda, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Subaru??? Over there, Proton got no subsidy or special advantages! For you, if it lable as Proton brand, would you buy it if the value is equal to a Toyota Vios?
