happy riding ..
If compared to Myvi, i was thinking savvy not suitable for long journey (4 adults) and good for city driving only.. it was a mistake.. good ala bucket seat design ,nice seat driving position (not  feel like driving a van ), very stable at high speed or highway speed(110~140km/h)-not feel like driving  a small car /other typical japs K-car.. it makes u  smiling while driving a savvy for long journey at hiway... believe me

the seats of the savvy is not bucket enough, IMHO (if compared to the neo laugh.gif tongue.gif )
and you also missed out engine noise. bearing a 1.15L displacement and a rather close gearbox, cruising beyond 3500 rpm can be a discomfort.

Long journey with 4 adults...can, but where to put luggage dude?? Extra space in a bigger car will come in extremely useful. Even the space in my Myvi is just enough only when i made some long journey a few months ago. For tall people, sit at the back(Savvy) sure leg cramp...i don't think i wanna sit behind in the Savvy for long journey. At least, with Myvi, i can sit behind comfortably with loads of leg rooms to spare...and my head not hitting ceiling. IMO, the savvy can only cater for 2 normal to tall person in front, 2 short person behind...otherwise, legs sure cramp.

traveling long journey doesn't mean have to carry luggage mah laugh.gif tongue.gif
you are right about carrying capacity though. myvi is a much bigger car compared to the savvy.

Your downpayment by bank draft or cheque? I paid by cheque, thus delayed for another 3 working days or so.

Where did you get your car? Which branch/dealer?

Cheque payment.Yeah the SA did told me that,he says most probally by this friday or next monday.

I got my car from Taipan,USJ Focus Setup Sdn.Bhd

Haha yeah,i was told by many other places that the car will take probally a month or 3 weeks to process. I was supprised with my SA which told me in 1 week i can get the car. My car is now in the delivery bay as i went there and have a look at my car today. Just waiting for registration then can bring my car back home.


Went Racing Fit in sunway today asked about savy bodykit for R3 Replica.Full set RM850 Without installation and paint.
Kinda don't like their staff there verry rude, as tough im asking for fun no money buy mad.gif
Im intrested with the front lips which will cost me RM220 PU material.

Not look the best la..still the front grill a bit cacat..but if i compare to persona i prefer waja.. icon_rolleyes.gif
wonder will the price of waja decrease ah.. whistling.gif

The engine is quite quiet at idle...virtually no vibration due to the superior engine mounting, better than a gen.2..vibrating gearstick is due to direct connection to the gearbox thru a rod linkage instead of cable actuator - other sports car prefer this rod linkage due to more "direct" feel..only engine kinda loud when you rev higher...

The exhaust manifold is behind the engine, next to the firewall near the passenger cabin unlike campro engines, other protons, myvi's at the front of the engine further away from cabin. and the engine bay is compact...can't expect much for noise reduction. Plus point of this setup - heat could be pushed back to the bottom of engine bay, so temperature around the intake area at the front could be reduced.

That's a price to pay for a performance oriented car.

As someone said savvy's still quiter than kelisa or a viva.

i tend to disagree
Comfort is not all about spaciousness.. handling and ride quality do count a lot too.
u can feel savvy seat cushion quality much better than "hard cushion" on myvi.. no point having extra legs room and head clearance but no Rear Headrest ( make ur neck painful ooo) , bumpy ride and hard cushion...

if u think comfort= spaciouness,
then NISSAN VANATTE VAN will be the answer... extra legs room and tall roof(not hitting ceiling)

1) Shut up with your prrth already. It ain't cool. It's moronic. You sounds like Apek who sits cangkuk with his leg on the chair and spit everywhere.

2) The cushion on Myvi is not that hard. A good mattress is actually hard and good for your back. Hard mattress is more expensive than cheap soft mattress. (But in this case, both the Savvy and Myvi seats are nice in their own way. It's just different).

3) No point having extra leg room and head room? Yeah right... doh.gif tongue.gif biggrin.gif ..maybe not needed for shorties kua.. tongue.gif

4) I don't miss the rear HeadRest. I don't think my STD Savvy has one anyway.

5) Compare Myvi with a Van?? Why don't you compare it with a Bus?? doh.gif Or maybe you should compare Savvy with a real Lotus?? doh.gif

i dont understand why many people like bucket seat so much? its only goes better for racing or sporty car i tink. And bucket seats IMHO are less comfortable than the normal seats either.....

1)matrix.. that was not the spitting or farting sound laa.
it was the sound when i am trying to hold my laughter by putting my hands on the mouth.. see.. how polite and gentle i am... not like other ppl... big laugh hahahaha here.. kekekeke there..ROFL,LOL LMAO etc

2) my comment was based on my friend who has both savvy and myvi in his garage.. he was planning to use savvy for city driving and Myvi for long journey... end up.. myvi static more in the garage,savvy for balik kampung(long journey)

3)Simple question.. Do you think NISSAN VANNETTE VAN is comfortable?? as it has extra legs room/head clearance?? if ur answer "yes" then i should rest my case

4)Savvy has adjustable/detachable rear headrest.. not like myvi's camel hump "head rest"( i believe tall ppl cant place the head on it)

5)as mention earlier.. it should be compared to passo,sirion and boon
