I always liked the arches on these.
Seats look nice too.
Not very quick from what I've heard.

i like the wide arches with the studs on. looks like a race car.
cover the proton badges up and no one would know it was based on a cheap asian hatchback.

Personally I don't like them, but then I just don't like protons.

Am I right thinking you can drop an evo lump in these fairly easily?
Quite liked them when I was a kid, always loved the arches on them

Bottom half of the side profile reminds me of the Saxo VTS. Especially with the similar arches.

Are you kidding?
It's not based on a cheap asian hatchback, it is a cheap asian hatchback.
