Proton Gen-2 MME Edition | Unit 036/200 | Where Have All The MMEs Gone?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2024
- Yes, perhaps one of the rarest cars on Traction Talk. I have not seen other units besides this one.
Or are all the other Gen-2 and Waja MMEs all in hiding? Come forward and let's meet la!
Hello, Filipino viewer here. I've always looked at you guys across the Sulu Sea with envy. Not only does Malaysia have a domestic auto manufacturer (2 in fact, Proton and Perodua), but you guys also have a homegrown, in-house performance arm for at least one of the manufacturers, Proton's R3, which builds and sells competitive and compelling performance variants of the more pedestrian base cars.
We did get Proton here in the 90s....one of the dealerships was located near my mom's office in Makati City then. I think we got Wiras and Putras, among others. Shame we didn't get the Satria or anything badged R3.
I'm just beginning to learn about Malaysian hi-po cars and am currently binging your vids, this, the Satria Neo R3s, the Lotus Racing and RS, as well as old vids of Fifth Gear testing a Satria GTI at Sepang. Kinda curious too about the tiny Savvy with the R3 bits....too bad there's not much content about that anywhere, aside from brochures. 🤷♂️
Well, this comment has gone long winded now, kinda like Genting. Please keep up the good work, and may you find that Waja MME you're looking for as well as that Savvy R3 Zerokit that I am looking for.
Kumusta!
What a pleasant surprise to have a fellow Southeast Asian here in a Malaysian-oriented car page. Wow I didn't know you had Protons back then...the good 'ol 90s. It must have been a weird time for you guys - 'hmm what are these weirdly-named cars doing here?'. Haha
You've come to the right place to see some rarer Protons - some even hard to be seen in Malaysia itself. Their spirits have mostly been forgotten in today's downsized-engined, plastic-trim-fest, multiple-touch-screened, electrified world.
We revisit them here. The very cars that were possibly our first crushes in school, and first aspirations upon starting our jobs.
Waja MME and Savvy Zerokit? I might be able to find those for you, fingers crossed. In the meantime, do give this channel a follow so that you won't miss it if our luck turns out to be good. I have a good feeling about this.
Salamat!
@tractiontalk I followed and clicked the bell thingy ever since The Algorithm suggested I view your Satria Neo R3 RS vid. Gotta tell ya, Malaysian cars and rare/hi-po ones at that, is a rabbit hole I don't mind falling on. 🤣
Super enjoying the content, man. Terima Kasih.
@MrBinnie824 check out the new Waja MME video. Your request came true!
@tractiontalk yeah I just watched it! Waja looks handsome in that black paint....IMHO it presents much better than the Gen2 MME.
Good vid as always. Hopefully you get to review a Proton Savvy with the R3 kit.
@MrBinnie824 Cameras really don't do them justice. The Waja is in a very, very dark purple / burgundy color that shows up better in person. Gen2 in an equally dark blue color that also gets drowned out by the cam.
So another alternative is...to come to Malaysia and see it. Hahahaha
The Gen-2 MME looks so good eventhough it's stock. Kudos to the owner to keep it stock. Hoping for you to find a Waja MME owner in the future!
I'm working hard to find an original Waja MME. Stay tuned!
My dad buy a new gen2 2007 edition black colour and then it had problem on 2011 he sold it and on the same year 2011 right time after he sold it, he go to proton centre and he buy another new gen2 cps highline red colour, still running good condition until now 2024 with stock condition dude.. for me this car impress me so much la, ill keep this car lahh.. you right it was really sentimental for me juga do
The Gen2 had a place in many lives of today's car guys. Keep your CPS bro. Its a good mix of looks, power and practicality
JAGA ELOK2 KHAZANAH NEGARA TU WEY
thanks for this excellent video man! this video really scratched an itch for me for older lesser known malaysian cars
Thanks Praveen for watching! Yess...this is the whole reason TractionTalk was set up. There's a whole bunch of like-minded folks out there
KL to Ko Lanta in a day, the Porsche broke down but proton said:
"NOT TODAY!"
'Protons are unreliable' hurr durr
The Gen 2, the car that kickstart my passion for Proton, grew up with a Gen 2, it was my brother's, a very a early model with all beige interior😂. Now at the age of 20, managed to get myself a Satria Neo CPS with the 'spoiler tinggi' one. Restoring it back to it's former glory.
Yes please! Got any socmed links to share with everybody?
@@tractiontalk currently, there has yet to be one since I've only owned it for just over 1 month and I'm using it as my daily. Though, there will be an Instagram account for it, so stay tuned😂
The mme kit actually transformed how the gen2 looks. The malaysian motor industry has some very interesting cars..the wira c99, putra 1.8 and the satria gti. Over in singapore we had the satria gti but sadly none of it survived the coe system. Very cool cars from the 90s to early 2000 era indeed
I remember the SGTi there in the new millennium. COE shows its pros and cons here, haha. And on the Gen2, yes the R3 kit renews its personality. A racier look with being ricer
I was not even 10 years old back then, but I rmb admiring this car’s ad on newspaper
The good 'ol days of newspaper ads..always designed and written to perfection
Gen2 MME is one very special car, but my choice is the CPS spec because of pure power delivery (VIM at low end, CPS at high end giving 125bhp) while MME is towards high end rpm, more raw.
Again, cosmetically and aesthetically MME is still nice and may outperform CPS stock to stock on the track.
But I would still go for CPS for its driveability. Don't believe?
Try accelerate in 5th gear from 30kmh and no hesitation at all. All the way to 210-220.
Ahh...we are really spoilt for choice macam ni. MME or CPS? Aa pening!
Good thing is, you won't go wrong with either!
Great channel!
Keep on sharing modern classics. It reminded me of the times I fawn over any kind of cars in magazines be it local or imports!
Well, that makes two of us. Thank you for tuning in!
finally you are back brother. I was watching your clip over and over thinking where have you been no new vid. Good car.
I'm back! Been busy la these few mths, Raya and all. Thanks for the wait man...this is really encouraging. Hopefully TractionTalk picks up pace 2nd half of 2024.
P/S: I fell in love with the Gen2 again, rekindling a long lost feeling
@@tractiontalk since you release this vid I am looking for cheap gen 2 to mod the exterior as mme now lol. It’s so nice the gen2 mme pretty sporty looks
I get the feel with this brother. He have a conti car but prefer proton gen2. I also have conti car but i prefer proton suprima as my daily drive.
Gotta love the SS. It looks especially great with the R3 bodykit
Old is gold. Rare n nice car bro ❤
True that!
Grammar Police: It's 'The Gen 2 and I' lah...awesome video nevertheless, wish you luck with your channel.
Yes, you are righter.haha. Thanks for watching man

It's always about the awesome owners. Thanks for watching!

Tapi kan, Persona pun otai jugak tambah2 Persona Elegance Hi-Line. Kerusi kulit dgn design lawa, disc brakes pun x4, bodykit pun ngam yang amat, door handles pun matte silver. Lawa!

I have a collection of exhaust note clips from most of the cars featured here...might be posting them as separate Shorts
Nice looking..
Evergreen...just like the Satria Neo
Hi Tractiontalk I hear that Proton also produced a 1.3 version of MME how true is this ..? 50 units
No 1.3 MMEs were produced bro
Keep 1 here, hehe
Marvelous!
awesome video man
Thank you my friend
masa ni ayah sy SA masa model ni launch
ada la die bwk balik broucher
tp syg tak simpan utk sejarah
Ce selongkar bilik stor, kot jumpa sehelai dua kan
@@tractiontalk takde dh. 2021 rumah kne banjir bro. majalah KERETA zaman2 2003 dlu pon hbis. sedih btol
I think i know the guy who loan his GEN2 back in the days hahahah…i think it come with the factory promotional stickers. If im not mistake it’s a show room model…
And the guy has a same name as me…
Not that guy bro haha...Mr.A had the CPS model in silver, penang plate. My housemate had a grey CamPro model plate wilayah
@@tractiontalk ahhh close call…anyway very good video…keep hunting the rare proton on the road buddy
Thanks old friend
Keep your videos to max 20 mins.
That's always the target...🤗
Wait saya tak tahu pon dia persona gen2 mm
e edition
Gen-2 (dan Waja) saja yang ada MME Edition. Persona (1st gen) tiada, tapi ada model SE, SV dan Elegance.
💪💪💪👍👍👍
FD2R!
@@tractiontalk 😅 that's my buddy in your video ☺️
Haha...geng hi-revving N/A manual cars ni
@@tractiontalk 😂 there is fun in it that we like
find me the car which budget u less than 10k which give the good handling and enough power for amateur driver like me. also plenty of spare parts outside..thats why i bought gen2 cps manual, cannot find another enjoy car for that price range..
Hi-5 for your Gen2 CPS! The car which i never got to have. Agreed bro, it's a near perfect driver's car that excels in daily duties too
Poor sales car...many negative feedback...fuel consumption high, power window problem, not very powerful car, lack of responsive engine and etc..etc.. , low resale value market...trade-in less than 3k...(10 years old car )...😅😅😂😂 Now use Perodua brand which is much2 better.. 😁
I totally agree with you. But the people who want this car see something which is absent in the other local brand - a soul 😁
When you said the Saga looks like the Honda City. Which saga and City are you referring to? I struggle to see the resemblance. My mom has a Saga, and I drive the City so they're parked side by side on a daily basis 😂
The BLM and the 2010 / 2012 City. 3-box design...
@@tractiontalk Ah yeah the same one my mom drives. Maybe it's just me but I find it hard to see any resemblance. Subjective I guess 😂
@kinluke betull... But nowadays it couldn't have been more true, with cars looking kinda similar to one another in design. Sikit sana sikit sini, tadaa one new car!
@@tractiontalk this one I agree 😂 the new GN2 Honda City.
INI BARU RARE
