Agreed on your advise. When i was 23rd, i was just driving a SAGA BLM only, not so burden and save more $$$$$$ and 8 years finally over and i bought 2 properties, 1 rent out and 1 own stay and now prepare for my wedding end of this year.
My wife agreed to married to me bcoz she know i am realistic. In Malaysia, $$$$ is very important....without $$$$ to maintain your life, your future will be shits...

Even this year i am going to married, i still feel that my $$$$ not really enough, only enough to cover only. I plan to buy Civic, Forte or Elantra earlier. End up i calculate, was not worth for me to waste or spend too mch on this type of car. I bought Preve can save RM30K++, this 30K+++ i can spend to invest in another property or invest in share market to make my money growth...

Let say if you tell me, you want to drive a luxury car to chase a pretty girl or to show off, i totally not agreed on and you wont get a good girl at the end. And you will be very stress at the end and you got nothing...unless you are very rich...

You drive Kanciu or Viva, nobody will going to look down on you, if you have financial probs or stress... no body will care on you and end up you stress yourself.

If you concerns of long travel and safety issue with family support. Then you can go ahead, at least you don't need to make them worry.

U know, some of my friends same age with me, they bought a honda/toyota car previously because for his GF and his Face....
And now, i don't see they are in a good life until, sometimes they argue with the gf because of the financial issue and they don't have enough money to buy a property/house bcoz of over their budget limited and housing price was hike this few years.

I told them, i bought proton Preve, u know what they said..they all laugh at me....at the end, i feel that my life is better than them bcoz i have 2 property and t hey have nothing at all...
One my friend drive honda city, owe me RM1K for 4 years ago also not affordable to finish pay me now. Every month, they only afford to pay me RM50 for 2 years installment. tongue.gif

Then Proton really need to recall all previous batch Preve owner for retune.  shakehead.gif

why make recall? u go services your car at SC right? and also its not a must to update the ECU.. they will only do the ECU thing if u agree...

some might wanna stay at current ECU.

What advantage the previous ECU had compare with current one?

dont know... but i am not gonna rush to get the new ECU update so fast.. as i have no jerking problem and my FC after run in is getting better plus i dont have sluggish pickup... normal 1500rpm it can move like normal car on the road.

Seems so. Perhaps a good time for those still on the fence to re-consider  hmm.gif

Myvi have lightning quick throttle response, where as Campro engines suffer from it's infamous dbw lag compounded by the CVT, then further compounded by the sluggish ECU tuning in the Preve.

If you are trying to race a Myvi from standstill, you're in for a heartache during initial acceleration. But after a few hundred meters the Myvi will be eating CFE dust.

jump ship~

yeah.. same with flx... standstill throttle respond preve is out of the pictures... but after a few 400-500meter... eat dust lagi best!

Guys,

Gonna go for my 1k service soon. Called Seremban proton edar today, their booking is full till 18th august. Probably will go to a authorised service center only. Or u guys think I should still wait till the service center has a spot?

While driving up or down hill, there is some slight jerking of the car but the car engine won't die off, while pickup after a complete stop is slow compare to my old myvi. Anyone mind giving me some heads up?

My chasis no is 103xx
*
if uphill i prefer shiftronic... use the manual gear.. this will help u eliminate thejerking.

Have you tried the one in Senawang? They do a pretty decent job I guess (although they played me around with my gearbox issue sad.gif )

Shiftronic no throttle lag meh? unsure.gif
*
yeah a bit... but it can throttle up your RPM beyond 2000. this is very useful for uphill experiences.
