QUOTE(Gekko @ Mar 18 2014, 10:56 AM)
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.. biggrin.gif
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. For me its bearable, as you dont hear it all the time, and you can minimize the sound using radio tongue.gif
2. Okay for me smile.gif
3. Compare to your Saga, of course Saga is better, since Preve is heavier car. But the pick-up is not that bad, as long as you know when to step on the pedal. Its also will get better after you service the car two, three times.
4. Highway 7.5l/100km, City 10l/100km. Mixed abt 8.++l/100km.

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.

I see... even the new ancap version still plastics?

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.
*
this, still considering this...

yes... the features... I like Suprima S features. but the Suprima S ass design makes me wanna buy preve instead of suprima S..

yes, Wanna keep the car at stock look. any other suggestion... is it worth to buy Suprima S compared to Preve CFE in term of design, features and accessories that bundled with the it..

Cut down by RM1xx only..

Previous RM72,999 now RM 72,839.50

However with the extra things like 6 air bags. EVP all come without additional charge.. Hence it still worths a lot..

Yes, that's why I'm consider and compare with Suprima S. Just the cons, the plastics gear knob. IMO Preve dashboard panel looks more exclusive compared to Suprima S. What about you guys?

does preve premium comes with reverse sensor or cam?

The gear knob can be changed. RM180+.

No reverse camera, only reverse sensor. HU supports reverse camera, can be installed fairly easily.

I'm using Preve LE. I bought it instead of Suprima S because of its looks and the car itself is comparable to Suprima S.

donno, maybe the price they already cut down their profit potion i think..
for 4k discount, is it 2014 or 2013 car?
to choose between 2013 or 2014 really depend on your preference if both specs are the same...
but for preve, get the latest 2014 better...
