We are talking about 2nd hand value here. Wtf with all these marketing strategy and advertising crap? rolleyes.gif you want to participate in an argument at least you DO SOME reading.
*
5 years ago my friend bought wira and kancil becoz he said 2nd value for these car very good...
but up till now he can't find any buyers and his kancil price drop drastically..

moral...we don't know the future..few years later maybe new model coming out, FTA, or AFTA........ no matter hotselling car or not. (but it still 2nd hand)...ppl will buy new car

i drove my bro's savvy MT

what i can comment is.. pickup a bit laggy, clutch a bit stiff, breaking too sensitive (got EBS???), looks cool with R3 kit, rock steady when speeding, engine sound not nice, good handling, roomy..
*
1. better FC among its class
2. good handling like medium sedan car class..

when u drive the car,...u don't feel like driving small/compact car like others jap cheapo K car

Savvy and MyVi is actually different car...............

the MyVi platform is based from Vitz (the old one), has a boxy profile compared to Vitz is to serve different purpose.......

it is the Vitz actually is in same category as Savvy.........

but thanks to malaysian bloated car price, we have usually compare cars within price rather than its category

anyway, if the Savvy sedan is launch, i dont think Iswara will be replaced with Savvy sedan in taxi market quite soon, it would happen gradually

myvi is mini mpv...designed for msian who can't afford buying mpv like avanza, innova or alphard

Well, Savvy is lighter, power to weight ratio, it has a big advantage over MYVI. Secondly, it is using a SOHC engine, it has better low end torque, city driving is excellent, cornering is good and firm.
sunauto
if i am not mistaken..savvy is heavier than Myvi.
anyone can clarify this ?

unless you're ferrari (who was bought over by Fiat), you just have to make cars that sell, not cars that fun to drive but doesn't serve the majority.
we r customer not a car seller, .we buy the car to enjoy the ride..as long savvy can fullfill our satisfaction, its good to me....savvy is for niche market proton not only producing savvy model, they oso producing sedan ,hatchback,coupe model..

Nah, i remember last year NST's car of the year award for the supermini category, the nominies are the savvy (manual), myvi and swift and the winner was the swift due to its fun to driving nature.

This year's autocar asean COTY awards for supermini category the nominies are myvi, savvy and atos, and the judges allow the myvi to win due to its overall brilliant package rather than savvy's lotus handling

Lotus handling will never win sales, take alook at today's proton state and lotus also didnt sell much in Europe. sweat.gif
Too bad majority people prefer safe, reliable but boring driving than spirited driving.

u r wrong..last year savvyMT,myvi and atosunder mini car category, wherelse swift and yaris and kia rio under different cat.

and this year savvy won the awards not only becoz of lotus handling laa..judges oso not stupid lorrr

9. Good Looking ?

How many of you seen a savvy before and say its beatiful design. Myvi far more better than those protons. They have L.E.D tail lights and signal lights for Myvi.

Its called Innovation, one thing Proton surely doesnt have.
*
myvi design= innovation??coz of LED and signal??? hehe japs must be laughing at u guy.
boxy Toyota Bb is the most popular in Japan, but toyota Bb has no LED and signal at side mirror...Toyota no innovation mehh hehe

really good point.
luxury cars don't sell that much compared to mass produced cars.

not that savvy is a luxury car anyway...

just curious, what's the sales figure?
*
and it depends on which country we r talking about..
for example :
advanced country like japan : Compact car (Toyota Bb) =hot selling car
3rd world country like msia : Myvi and wira =Hot selling car

laughing at Ah Beng's replies... lol...
Sales Figure DOES shows how much people likes the MyVi over the Savvy...

While I agree that Savvy has many good points, the biggest issue is the praticality of the car.

People In Malaysia rite???... 3rd world country. biggrin.gif ..the result wud be differ in other country

for example,..toyota Bb sales much2 better than toyota passo in Japan... icon_rolleyes.gif

so wat u try to say is 3rd world country result does not prove anything

i wud say..msian knows nothing about car.( good example..when they said LED and signal at side mirror is INNOVATION..hehe). they chose/bought a car based from ppl hearsay, crowd follower..
tat y i don't respect wat ppl say "malaysian choice" "malaysian favourite" malaysian best car or wat ever

Some are damn correct on the point in this thread...names like DVVT, VVT sure could mislead a lot of people when the facts they are rubbish except for VVTLi may be.
like putting a vtec sticker on a kancil, and mitsi logo on gen.2 backside.

the mass and even some of the enthusiasts are laughable.

since they could not afford the cars they want so much they lay blames on Proton and gomen due ti artificial hi prices....rich guys like the TS are not bias when comes to judging cars since they have access to better cars.
*
don't play2..some of myvi owner believe pelodua SA words" 1.3dvvt power equivalent to 1.6cc engine "
but in reality 1.3dvvt's FC=1.6cc'sFC biggrin.gif

just take a look original passo/sirion ..no VVti or DVVt emblem on the car,coz japanese know, dvvt/vvti is nothing to be proud...but we can see from 1km far..dvvt emblem at the back of myvi and kembara... biggrin.gif
