Hye guys..! I guess this question might have been thrown away before but i couldnt find any concrete review for the preve exec cvt..
I have fixed my mind on getting a preve. Most probably going with the preve exec cvt based on current budget n considering mantenance cost.. Is the preve exec cvt ok? Any problems while overtaking or hill climbing? Please share your views or experience. Need to get the car soon as baby on the way and need to replace the old satria!  Thank you!!! |

To all Preve owners!! Need your advise as hopefully ill be joining you all soon as Preve owner. The thing is cant decide on the Exec cvt or Premium. Please share your views and experiences.
My concerns are..maintenance cost are they the same? Fuel compsumption is it much difference? And for Exec cvt is it underpower..Any problem while overtaking or hill climbing? TQ and appreaciate all advise. |

QUOTE(chicaman @ Feb 18 2013, 04:18 PM) Never drive Premium before, Bro i have test drive the Premium because at the showroom mostly dont have the Exec cvt for test drive..how is the ride on you sis car? Overtaking n hill climbing ok? It is not underpowered is it?But my sis's Executive don't really feel like driving Civic though LOL.... at least civic interior looks better! no offense but Preve is a nice ride at its price! driving above 100km/h with < 2k RPM  |
