I rarely use S mode on the Preve Turbo as I find the RPMs to be very high in this mode. I have only tested the S mode on normal roads and have not driven the car up to Genting. It seems like the car can be driven up to a practical speed of 80km/h in S mode before the RPMs get too high and the rev of the engine gets unpleasant. But when going up Genting I guess the S mode will be suitable since the speed of the car will be around the range of 30km/h to 70km/h or so.

Apologies if I have offended you but I do admit that I may be critical when it comes to assessing things and usually don't hide the flaws or weaknesses. I am quite analytical in person. That goes the same with my other car that I own, the Ford Focus.

The term "pussy" has different meanings. One being a weakling and the other being vulgar word for the female genital. I hope you are not referring to the latter when you called me a pussy. If it's a weakling, the application of this word is not appropriate either. If you call me critical or fussy, then I can agree.

Issues such as CVT whine and the sound from the engine, these are inherent characteristics of the Preve Turbo. It is not so much related to whether one is driving the car properly. I have driven enough cars for the past 25+ years to know how to judge the characteristics or performance of these cars. Hence, I don't need to know about the details in how to drive the car properly, especially since you have suggested I do not know how to drive the Preve Turbo properly. The knocking sound from the engine is something that i experience in my car. Others who don't experience this knocking does not suggest that the knocking sound had come up because I don't know how to drive the car. I am baffled by your remark.

As for driving the car up Cameron or Genting, I have mentioned I have not driven the car up Genting (though I have driven the Ford Focus up Genting on 3 occasions up to date). The Preve Turbo is more like a care-free car which I often alternate with the Ford Focus. I drive the Ford Focus more these days as I derive more enjoyment from it compared to the Preve Turbo.

I am not suggesting that the S mode in the car is problematic. Rather I am suggesting the S mode is not suitable to be driven at higher speed or higher RPMs. You don't know how I drive my car. I am not particularly gentle with my footwork. I often floor the pedal as in doing hard acceleration with my cars, especially with the Ford Focus. I do drive the Preve Turbo hard at times too, however, I refrain from doing that too often due to the "issues" that had been repeated many times on this thread now. The sound from the engine of the Preve Turbo during hard acceleration is unpleasant. The sound may be acceptably fine to your ears, but it sounded bad to mine.

Please bear in mind I am not exactly bashing the Preve Turbo but am relating my thoughts or opinions on the car. Whether you agree or disagree is fine with me. I have said many times. Despite some shortcomings of the Preve Turbo, it is a good car and value for money compared to overpriced Vios and City.
