Just did the test drive this evening, as have been said by others, it really is amazinngg rclxms.gif Felt really good and much better than my brother's avanza, which is very light and too simple for the same price.

The guy suggest me to change the tyre to 17" for better even better handling and road grip. It will look physically better as well. Gonna trade in my savvy 06 for exora prime. biggrin.gif

ouh thanks for the info... but all this while I thought if we take loans with shorter tenure, the interest rate will be lower.. it seems I was wrong then
i thought avanza only RM60k++ one? exora bold  cost at least about 70k right?

My brother bought the avanza early this year around 75k, 1.5. Use drum brake at the back. And he always has problems to overtake, so when i ride with him we only go for middle or left lane blush.gif Right lane later kena highlight tongue.gif

To prove my ride is cooler than yours laugh.gif jk jk..

How about change 205/45or50/17? Does it affect FC coz the width ady is same with oem spec.
*
The guy suggest me to change to 215/45/r17. He said that is just the right size.

Hmm, somehow when the guy explain about the whole tyre things, and how wide tyres have more grip and can brake better seems to make sense sweat.gif But now im not sure anymore. And kept pointing out also how most BMW and Merz have big and wide tyres for that reason.

Maybe the stock tyre is the best to go. Need to do more research

It is the dealership trying to clear their own stock, not necessarily proton ask them to.

Yupp, exactly. The owner at my place explain that he needs to keep have good connection with other dealer to ease the process. He cant order a new batch if the current stock cannot sell. So the dealers will exchange with each other depending on the needs and demands at respective location to keep the flow moving.

I just got my Bold last Friday. Excellent ride, and the whole family loves it. But I've noticed 3 bothersome things :
1. the steering badly rattles when I hit 100km/h. Wheel balancing? Will need to check this out but since everybody's on CNY break will need to wait till end of the week. Can SC cover this or better just go tyre shop?
2. engine is loud (from the outside)! But luckily it doesn't sound that bad from within the cabin.
3. the (radiator?) fan keeps on operating (again, very2 loudly!) even after I turn off the engine. Only goes off when I arm the alarm (lock car doors). Normal izzit?

Any good recommendations for car tinting?
*
1# Quite a few new owners commented that the steering vibrates over 100km/h. Hopefully this is case by case, a bit worried for those soon to be owner tongue.gif

The ECO Tint provided is not dark enough brows.gif Definitely have to change

i am seriously considering getting the exora bold in the near time

however by looking at the features they are offering for p3-21a (refer here), makes me worry a bit. who knows in few months time they will introduce Exora Bold FL with DRL, start button, rain sensor, ESC etc, etc shocking.gif since they oredi done it on the p3-21a -> something like the FLX vs FL case.
*
Wow, that is relly some package by Proton. Awesome.

However, even if they are to include all these features in Exora, I doubt it will be in this near future. CFE Bold, after 3 months Bold Prime, then P321 to launch. Pretty packed year for Proton rclxms.gif

I also wanna get prime, but when budget lari, the difference is actually big, from 79k to 88k. When to Proton Tampin, was offered the test drive unit with discount rm5000. I straight away say no shakehead.gif

Ppl already hentam the car, with all the seats no plastic cover already only 5K discount, i feel not worth. Run 500++ km already
