it sucks i tell u...should've just auto unfold when engine switch on

haha...no worries

Hi Preve owners, I am also considering joining the club. I am also looking to upgrade mty ride to the Preve 1.6 Exec CVT (Non-CFE). Currently my ride is the Saga FL Manual Executive. My concerns are as follows:

1. CVT noise - how bad is this or its bearable?
2. Engine Noise - compare with my Saga, I guess I can accept this..
3. Power and pick-up - consulted with SA, recommended me to go for CFE but I do not have the budget. Is the pick-up really bad? I did not want to go for test
drive as the one they have is a CFE and is not the model I am looking at.
4. FC - they say the normal CVT model drinks quite a fair bit but if go outstation is good - similar to my Saga FL?

Do please give comment/your thoughts on the above. I am very keen to upgrade to the Preve. Thanks

1. CVT noise memang ada unless you do soundproofing
2. Engine noise...same as CVT, can reduce if you do soundprooring
3. Pick - up and power for manual cannot compare with CFE. This is because Preve is a heavy car
4. If go outstation and with minimal traffic, fuel consumption should be ok.

i'm driving a honda jazz ckd & my fren just bought an exec preve 2013 ancap.

1. ok for me.
2. ok also.
3. ok..cfe lagi ommpphh.
4. from instantaneous FC of preve, stop-n-go is acceptable, cruising 90km/h ok.

ok. why i chose jazz?
-my wife wanted a small car,
-no preve ancap ver was available at that time,
-suprima s ass ugly.

i've test driven preve cfe twice, & my mom-in-law owns an exora cfe.

Preve got engine noise due to its CVT

Dear Preve owner, I'm in the middle of choosing either Preve CFE or Suprima S... Please advice me...

The only reason I chose Preve because it's a Sedan....

If Sedan/Hatchback is not your concern, the Suprima S has more luxury feel with its finishing compare to the Preve...
but of course being priced much higher contributes to the extras you do not get with the Preve.

sedan or hatchback in one of my concern but not my major concern... I'm more to design and features... want to got with Suprima S at first but the dashboard panel color makes me think twice.. want to go for preve, but its entertainment system screen look small compared to Suprima S...

CFE is the better choice since the car is heavy...
One CFE owner in the group said he once got overtaken by a Saga FL.

So...you decide what is your ride.

then go for Suprima. Then change the panel finishing later on outside

TBH, I pick Preve because of sedan type. But I would love to get my hands on leather brake lever, leather gear knob, leather seat, and bigger entertainment screen. Combine all that cost to replace would be pricier than changing the panel finishing I think

EDIT:

Beside, Suprima S doesn't look nice on R3 Bodykit. Preve looks more fierce!

I have the other way round of thinking.. the dashboard in Preve is more prone to finger print compare to the Surpima's....

But really this is individual preference too.

Entertainment System for me is useless because 2 years down the road I will change it too... All stock HUs that come with the car will never be "decent"..

As again the price diff by quite a lot so you can use that to upgrade but things gonna bother you is to try keep the warranty intact.

Rim wise Suprima has 17" while that may look nice but comes changing tyre will cost a bomb.

I am not planning to change or add any accessories after that... that's why I prefer premium variant rather than executive.

Look like Suprima S suits you better ....

One thing most Preve owners will dislike is the Gear Knob.. feeling too plasticky..
Suprima has leather wrapped at the side.... it gives an overall more premium feel whenever you touch on it.

This cost is part of my concern/consideration

just asking, does Suprima S ass looks ugly? Your opinion please?

I took some time to get used to it and began to accept and like it.

It wasn't so long. It just needs some time

Wanna keep the car at stock look and not prone to accessories stuff, my advice go for Suprima S.
Its a major refinement from Preve CFE but well not much different from 2014 CFE but still much better.
Leather seats-console lid-gear knob, DRL, better HU & speakers, Hill Hold Assist, etc etc and there's still 1 feature that keep it different from Preve CFE,
forgot what it is . . .

Cons from my POV,
- the ass uhmmm, like davidlow7 said, need some time for us to swallow up.
- 17" tyre size, wallet pain when wanna change it.

Not only gear knob is plasticky...can be easily damaged....then either you change the knob or put super glue on it.

me too gonna change the leather brake lever and gear knob
plus boot tray...damn they take out this item n coil mat

have you check Preve LE? nice also
