Sure, be glad to help.

The handling is great, steering feels heavy, if you like the light feeling of steering, I would say this car is not for you.

Nvh is good as well, I have friend with civic telling me it's better than his car but he's using low profile tyre. But this is subjective, go try it yourself.

The sluggishness on earlier complain seems to be gone or I'm used to cvt already. But it won't have the initial burst of myvi, having 1.3 ton body does weight it down.

Fc need to wait awhile, I haven't done first service, so maybe ask others is better. So far it's 9.8l/100km, it's ok to me, I never expect it to save fuel at the first place

Things that I don't like, fit n finish is not up to what I expect, some of the finishing could be better IMHO. But do check it out yourself.

Niggling things like engine start from cold start have sounds, gonna rectify it next week.
Paint quality could be better as well.

Overall I'm satisfied biggrin.gif

well summarized review...do keep us who are still waiting for the car posted.. nod.gif nevertheless i noticed that the FC is much higher than what was said by proton... could it be due to the reason that the engine hasn't been broken in properly? can any other owners who have received their car give some feedback as well? tq

if u read the civic forums, as theirs are using double wishbones, they have suspension problems as well, most of the time, the link's that goes bad.

the same cant be said for the toyota altis, which uses a simple torsion beam.

i agree...have read the same thing as well...anyway, i have friends who faced rear absorbers leaking problems after 3 years (vios 07)
