QUOTE(SiuYi @ Apr 22 2012, 09:46 PM) already do the comparison there, it seems there is no other diff except the one that i mention .. just wonder if there is other diff from the exp person who use this car .. if not, then is not worth for me to buy 1.6 version ..

most difference between the 1.6 and the 1.3 is in the engine and the bodykit.
Others are like the leather wrapped steering wheel, leather wrapped gear knob with red stitching, 15" rims, speedometer with 240km/h limit, leather seats, smoked clear backlights, and colour of certain parts of the dahboard are satin black.
EDIT: expect better acceleration and also a higher cruising speed on highways. also, FC will be a tad bit higher than the 1.3. the ride is harsher on the 1.6 due to 15" rims, so it's bumpier on long distance drives.

QUOTE(coolkwc @ Apr 22 2012, 08:50 PM) 14" not popular la, and not mistaken, NO AA traction for <15"... Proton = Root cause of Saga owners lower levels of Safety!!  Btw if change to 15", wld springs & shocks bcome too soft for heavier rims/tyres? So, more "investments" needed??

So, more "investments" needed?? Actually should be OK la, if stick with 195/50/15 with correct offset. If mostly driver alone no need worry about that. Anyway, no need too worry car safety due to tyre, of course it is important, but if you keep safety distance should be OK. I using 13" tyre only, somemore comfort tyre CC5, but adi feel good on wet.

So blur2 about car  SAT is a computerized setting which turns ur CVT feel to a traditional automatic gear feel. ada faham?

How many mileage for your tyre now? I only change to CC5 when hit 43k. That time my stock Silverstone M3 really 'unusable' during wet, skid everywhere in wet, even start from 1st gear also screeching on wet. This post has been edited by coolkwc: Apr 22 2012, 10:49 PM

sat= old autogear transmission = eat more fuel. cvt = fuel savvy already as stated in the brochure. SAT = stepped automatic transmission. explanation as provided by siuyi above.

Hi all,
Been loooking for an AT car that's affordable, so FLX SE seems to fit the bill. Went for test drive; quite positive driving experience except for the slight delay of the throttle response.
Somehow, I forgot to ask the SA what's the spec of the wheels i.e 15x???........anyone here can share? Thanks in advance.
