No, I do really mean what I mean. I thought FLX Exec and FLX CVT are different spec. You might get what I meant when you visit Proton website. FLX Exec and FLX CVT are on different tab. doh.gif
Okay boss, thanks... You clear my confusion. Silly website, or am I'm the one that silly. rclxub.gif

If want full spec + skirting might as well get 1.6SE lor. However, if want manual then no choice, only got 1.3. As for 1.3EXEC CVT, different with 1.6SE different only few thousand, but you get hellalotmore on the SE compare to 1.3EXEC. Power and FC wise wont be that much of different la anyway. So, if can afford, why not 1.6SE leh?

Other I can live without with but airbag might change my mind. What is ABS/ EBD and CVT thingy? CVT better than 4AT? If yes, so I'll opt for Saga. I ask because my internet block certain website so googling with this internet is a nightmare. notworthy.gif It's okay of you don't want to answer to my silly question. icon_rolleyes.gif

ABS = Aku Brake Sendiri
EBD = Entah Berapa Dugong
CVT = Cheebai Virgina Tits
4AT = For All Trash

ABS = The actual term was Anti-lock Brake System, but later some translate it as Advance Braking System. It's an electronic assisted brake system to avoid your car skid when hitting emergency brakes.


EBD = Electronic Brake Distribution. Helps to equally distribute brake force when the road is flat. However, if road was uneven/sandy, the wheels that feedback more to the brake caliper will result in having stronger brake force. Very noticeable if you try it on winding hill roads.

CVT = Continuously Variable Transmission. Lazy to explain liao. Sendiri tengok


And ofcourse CVT much much much much more better than 4AT laugh.gif

I think I know what you mean mate. Hehe... BTW, out of topic. My friend own Hilux. And should have ABS right? He's an off road driver at Miri, which is logging road camp. He told me he disable the ABS because ABS are hard to control than not having ABS. Sound weird? Can someone explain? I know ABS are for safety but why he said different? Or is he need to be repair? biggrin.gif

shakehead.gif bro you really go beyond liao. If you're still interested in GaGa stuff, please go back GaGa thread. And some of the irrelevant things you've asked, this is final answer from my side:

If your friend think ABS hard to control, then go ask him how. The only reason people does not appreciate ABS was the pedal is harder than without ABS. There's no INSTANT reponse from the brake pedal as every brake has to be calculate precisely so your wheels does not lock. A car with ABS seldom hear tyre screeching sound even during emergency brakes.

p/s: GaGa thread at

Please make use of it, instead of hijacking thread sleep.gif

I just tried to test drive the Saga FLX today but sadly the SA gave me test a 1.3 instead because 1.6 sold out already... overall

Air cond very cold even @ 1
Sound system felt good
Handling = awesome

But speed a bit slow .. maybe because it's 1.3

But currently they only offer RM500 off for 2013 model.... is it good ?

is 5mil free tint given by these SA good ? the SA said if can top up RM200 can give 6mil but I'm not good at these pricing thing ...

How much is a good sound proofing ? any recommended brand ?

Fren,

The speed is not slow, you'll have to slam the gas pedal! You'll be surprise when RPM hits 4k brows.gif Believe it or not, even 1.6 SE has the same problem. It's just the characteristic of CVT.

As for the tinting film, you try go ask the SA if you dun want the FREE tint can rebate back RM500 for you mou? If can, meaning that tint really worth that much. If kenot.... HAHAHAHAHA!!!! You know I know lar. The so called free tint was sponsored by the SA him/herself for the cost of less than RM100 yawn.gif As for RM200 you top up, that is exactly what you get(not RM500+RM200). If you top up, SA is going to use your RM200 to pay for the tint but that's it.

I've tear off my stock tint, got myself anti shatter safety film from the super-duper realistic DaBestOne - Sean a.k.a fl3xes. Quality and price quite reasonable lar. Got all 4 windows for RM200 yawn.gif

Try first la. Agreed with Gajah, can try use previous company payslip and see whether can anot lor. Besides, ask your SA to submit both CIMB and PUBLIC. See which 1 can pass lor. However, I prefer Public lar. Their service blardy fast lor

Rent a saga flx once before... I think its the 1.6 cvt. I THINK. Cant remember exactly. Pretty decent car if you ask me.

I usually drive my used Kia Sephia, mum's Toyota Spacio and Lancer GLi in Aus.

I drove the Saga from PJ to Penang. And at times went to 160km/h and didnt feel the car rattling or floating. It wasnt perfectly stable but I shouldnt be doing 160 anyway. Lol.

Its a decent car, one I would consider buying myself if im on a tight budget.

It feels like any local car - hollow. Ill be honest.

It's not like any other local car, BLM is nice if you're talking about GaGa category. All FLXes, they forgot to put bitumen yawn.gif
