A recent lucrative export deal to China involving the Proton GEN2
has been cited as one of the ways to spearhead Proton’s recovery, as
most of you would know by now. Proton was to export 30,000 completely built up Proton GEN2 cars to China for Jinhua Youngman to rebadge under the Europestar brand, with a further possible 80,000 units to be assembled in China.
Thanks to spyshots by Chinese automotive industry
website Cheshi, we now find out that the “localisation” of the Proton
GEN2 by Jinhua was not just limited to a left hand drive conversion and
swapping badges with the Europestar badge. The Europestar GEN2 gets a
completely new front fascia that looks like the poor car has jaundice, and the rear crop circle lamps get a similiar treatment.
UPDATE: Some of you may remember the spyshots of the facelifted Proton GEN2 due to be launched very soon. It too had a larger grille, although not as over the top as the Europestar version.

Project Ku jejak jalan yang berliku
Membara jiwaku memburu impian
Ku renang lautan gelora
Biarpun tersadai di hujung dunia
Akan ku rempuhi segala rintangan
Biarpun rebah ku bangun sendiri
Akan ku genggam biarpun hitam
Menjadi milikku
Ku mula dengan langkah ini
Menuju sinaran yang abadi
~ermm.. really need to change… the inside of me…

I’m holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I’m hearing what you say but I just can’t make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you’re sorry
Didn’t think I’d turn around, and say…
that it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I’d take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it’s nothing new - yeah
I loved you with the a fire red-
[Apologize lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]
Now it’s turning blue, and you say…
I’m sorry like an angel
heaven let me think was you
But I’m afraid…
It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late whoaa ohhh…
Bridge (guitar/piano)
It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah-
I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah-
I’m holding on your rope, got me ten feet… off the ground…
Nissan Bluebird Sylphy spotted in Malaysia

This is Nissan Bluebird Sylphy units spotted in Segambut. The cars have their badges taped up and bear trade plates. ETCM must be doing local road test, which could mean a launch is imminent.
This is just a theory - the fact that the car is using steel wheels
could mean a local supplier for the car’s alloy wheels is not ready for
production yet - leading to my suspicion that the car will be locally assembled.
A question many would ask would be where in the price range would
Tan Chong price these Sentra-replacement Nissan Bluebirds, considering
the Teana which is supposed to be a Cefiro replacement has been priced
too far away from the average Camry/Accord/Cefiro buyer’s reach.
