LOL..not really...quite the same as sentra..as i drive sentra (latest version, 4 years old) full tank goes to the same as vios (my mum 1, not dugong though) and the mileage can goes to the same as well..
i drove manual 1.6 with 17" rim, FC is about 0.14-0.15 cent/km in cities drive.
and sentra probably has less pick up compare to vios due to the heavy weight body..
for my self opinion i prefer more stable and safety 1st car..so i choose sentra...
i tried b4 driving 180km/h for both car (vios at kesas highway, on the way to KLIA and sentra at north south highway goin to penang) at 120km/h vios is less stable edy...like flying which the tyres has less grip..and at 180km/h it will go straight when u start conerning..it was like no grip at all..but for sentra at 160km/h still stable and at 180km/h starting to feel like 120km/h vios..
for maintainence issue, i could says that nissan is more expensive and most of the parts is from APM which locally made.
as i search for the dugong version review last few months, many of them says there's problem with the sound coming out from the front compartment which toyota service centre also couldnt do anything bout it or didnt do anything bout it...
and then again..toyota service centre bcome more and more lousy...
cheers.
Thx TSG_7,
Ya...I also lik the out-look of nissan sentra... Pretty cool and sporty...
Just worry the FC n maintenance fee only... Cos my parents dint own nissan car b4...
And as I know... Many of my fren no agree me buy SECOND HAND sentra...
becos they said tat sure got lot prob or high fuel if second hand lo...
Then they said tat VIOS engin more tahan lo..even second hand...FC stil good... Just 0.14/km!!!
This is wat I scare only... But I know buy second hand car sure got cons and pros one...
Just c my luck lo... hahaha!!! Anyway, I will go test drive by this weekend lo...
hope after it i wil knw which i wan choose lo...
before tat hope can heard more info bout this two car and wat I wan to focus when go search the second hand car...
thx all of you one information...
