tyenfei, it seems like you're not confident enough with this car...? don't get offended by my statement though... 
anyhow, my conclusion stands, DO NOT BUY AN ALZA unless you have plenty of time to waste getting it stranded at Perodua SC to fix this and that, and plenty of money to fix their plunders and replace poor quality and missing parts.
My Alza has been giving me endless problems. I've already spent 4k on improving sound insulation and ride comfort (read sound insulation and ride comfort ONLY). I have to admit I'm not a DIY kinda person to do sound insulation like some of the members here, I really respect them for their efforts. But so far I'm close to achieving what I've got on this car (it means I'm gonna spend more on this guinea pig), but with 4k it can be used on something more useful. This 4k of mine is used to fix what Perodua failed to offer for an overpriced 60 grand tin can. Even a Naza Citra now going for 70 grand offers better insulation and comfort with a bigger engine capacity albeit the fuel consumption.
If you see the list of problems on the first post, my car has 80% of the issues on the list. And more coming on the way and yet to be rectified. Just look at the lousy brake pads that causes dirty rims. Perodua said it's normal, that all cars has it. Granted it's true, but is it to that extent that the rims gets charcoal black in a matter of days..? Since they offer no better solution, we poor saps have to fork out just to get better grade brake pads.
I can be sure the maintenance for this car will skyrocket once the warranty goes out. I'll be rushing to sell this piece of junk once it does, not betting on high resale value though, coz by then many people will know how lousy this car is.
fully agree with you . after 2 years , I spend endless time in their sc , because their poor QC and parts . until today , the wind noise still occurs after 70km/h , the sc changes the rubber for 3 times in 2 years , my aircon magnetic clutch being changes in denso sc . the bluetooth have problem since day 1 . there are some weird sound in the car when driving , and after 2 years , the brake pad need to be changed , and it cost me 200 in the sc . anyhow, my conclusion stands, DO NOT BUY AN ALZA unless you have plenty of time to waste getting it stranded at Perodua SC to fix this and that, and plenty of money to fix their plunders and replace poor quality and missing parts.
