is it better to get a manual or auto persona elegance??
I dont mind driving stick, but how's the clutch like?? how bout auto transmission, any problem with its acceleration, is it linear?? and how does it perform going up hill??

anyone mind to enlighten me??any experience?? thanks

auto, i wouldn't exactly say the acceleration is linear. most car wont have linear acceleration anyway, usually only those turbocharged car with high torque that is widely spread across the powerband/rpm will have more linear acceleration.
but in terms of going up hill, i have no problem at all going up to genting and cameron. just need to shift around D/3/2/L to maintain the power uphill

going genting, definitely need to shift like a manual. cameron, less shifting but still need for sure.
overtaking, just step on pedal and no need shift. it will auto drop gear and boost forward. you will get adrenalin rush doing ti brows.gif

nice...just found out by using esso ron95 (compared to my usual shell ron95) my persona performs better...i mean the pickup is better, acceleration feels lighter and my engine sound is lower...stepping on the accelerator while overtaking normally make my engine roar, but with this petrol it didn't...considering to try bhp later to see if there's any difference...

Depends on your preference. If your tangan gatal wan, then manual best. But if you're working in KL and have to go through the jam... then auto is best.

I've driven both transmissions before, manual transmission's pick up is really crazy drool.gif
Auto is just crazy enough, enough to impress my friends who think their Vios and Citys are all that tongue.gif

for me in terms of performance esso > bhp, in terms of fc bhp > esso

for me using auto cruise in kesas highway is nightmare, half tank gone from cheras to west port, too many traffic, malaysia's traffic really not suitable for auto cruise

Mine is non-IAFM Campro drop-in filter, same with Neo and Gen.2.

Can get around RM250++ , but that was last year.
