Honestly I've high expectation of CFE version of Preve. Did not expect their qc to be even worse than PE. Anyway for me to consider replacing the PE with CFE Preve, I might consider ONLY after their mid-life mod where 2nd improve version of Preve appear. See how much improvement 1st generation Persona and mid-life PE difference.....solved most of initially issue and improve looks and performance on some....so will wait.

For me, actually I'm quite ok with PE. If compare with other conti, jap or even korean (korean is getting very good, almost comparable with Jap tho have not tried the award winning elantra yet, high expectation there), sure lose kaw kaw.

However if compare with other vehicle at same price range, I'm actually like PE especially its superb handling. I'm talking abt H-Line tho with its improved NVH, leather seats, abs, etc vs M-B lines. Without LCP, its really has lousy pickup with the dated gearbox but with LCP, its a different beast (or shoot I say tame animal)..oh....changing air filter every 10K is a must. The last time I change change at 15K....whoo...my PE gained much noticeable renewed power, so I will make it a must to change air filter every 10K. Less than RM20 for that power (abt 5-6 months usage). RM40 a year, worth it since our IAFM effect improve a lot for that replacement.

Now even my wife that keep complaining PE totally no power, commented, PE pickup ok liao but brake not so makan....ya right, just change the FBK branded front pads. Earlier complained abt LCP increased noise, now get used to it liao, so it become part of usual car engine noise....I think why many did not comment on the extra noise produced by LCP. It sounds bassy similar to those changed exhaust noise, some ppl will actually like it. Me...immuned liao. LCP increased low end torque is a MUST for auto PE. Without it, I will call it a shitty car with no pickup. Now I actually enjoyed driving the PE, sometimes more so than City due to the handling (pickup still lose a lot but stability on higher speed, City lose kaw kaw).

NVH is quite good, still lose out to my City but last time I open windows and drive and then close....very big different. Dashboard rattles after 6 months...but even Forte rattles after a year. Rear seat noise solved and if appear again, retape and problem solved. Rear right windows noise issue that irritate me for a few months suddenly disappear liao...rubber got cured?? (I used Xan method and lubricate the door rubber with rubber softening lotion, works a short while, then appear again....but a couple of months, right now, it disappear liao).
