HEllo sifoos and fellow SagaBlm owners

I have been reading owners discussion threads here for a while and enjoying all posting by owners. After long time reading... recently i decided to get myself a brand new Flx Plus Manual, registered on 22nd Dis. I have driven 2013 Flx 1.3 cVT and impressed with the low budget proton handling and this basically as a starting point for me ton consider saga blm flx. However, when picking up the car in Taiping from the dealer and drive it back to Alor Setar... I found out that the car comes with 13" steelie wheels ... thought it suppose to be14" alloy wheels as stated in the brochure.

Bought this car from a dealer who is my friend and since he gave me super good discounts I could not resist. .. though it's quite far away to pick up the car.. I still bought from him. According to him, only cVT model comes with 14" and no year end discount. For manual got rm700 Std discount while I got super extra.

To my surprise, the car does not handle as good as the stock flx cVT 1.3 I rented during my KK visit to Kundasang in 2013. The steering feels light and not so planted during highway drive.

The DBW is laggy. ... but overall still I feels it's a good buy. Just next day after taking the car home.... visit my friend tire shop, trade in the 13" stock wheels with 15" TE37 cap ayam paired with corsa 2233 195/50 R15. So far so good.

The car just covered 400km and looking forward for 1K service. And later will think of lowering it to compensate the ride height for better handling.

And guys.. thank you for informative posting here... !

Tq David and fellow gaga owners. I m in KL now and will post pics tmrw when back in Alor setar.

Nonetheless the car will be driven by my wife to pickup kids from school. I ride kapcai to work.. jimat petrol.. and surely the ecu will learn auntie driving style.

As for the handling. .. I am an oldskool so my butt hardened already.. and feels the ride after changing to 15" tires still OK and very comfy.

Te37 is an evergreen design. Last time RP01... I think if we survey the trend.. ppl slowly move away from rota look particularly vossen. Just like in the late 80s/ early 90s rim spender (triangle design) and early 2000 ppl go for TSW Venom.

And the reason I pick white flx and get te37 gun metal after my eyes got poison seeing @titanrev 's car. Owosome!

Surely bro. I ll snap few pics and post Sunday afternoon. Just reach home in alor setar after long tirING trip to KL and back via sabak bernam coastal route with my exora cVT.

I m thinking to buy Exora Stock clarion head unit.. but not sure whether the socket connector fits oem wiring connector in flx plus.

This is 2 din unit with Bluetooth and most important of all that ppl sells used for rm200 or less..

But I will only start tweaking once the mileage above 20k km.

Tayar mahal la for 205/40 r17... and senang bengkok for chap ayam rim. Ride gonna a bit harsh..

U can get Corsa Tire for roughly rm270 per pc for 17" .

David. I have posted the plate info from the b pillar. Pls have a look.

Aiyahh.. I m very far away.. would love to tt with fellow Gaga owners.

Hahaha. . Tq bro..


So I got an R spec Gaga!!! Woww.... better than mawiii extreme...

But seriously. . I have no regrets buying this car over overpriced mawiii.

Great info bro!

post update if you manage to install it plug and play using original Saga wiring connectors! I ll do next.

and for Saga SV/Plus.. these models are not fitted with front speakers but how about wiring the. Do ori wiring for speakers are there?

you know proton SC nowadays just needs simple excuse not to honor the warranty

James. For sure my Saga Plus Manual GB no 2 front speaker.. only 2 at the rear..

hhhhahaha true rojak! reminds me of my Alfa Romeo 155 and 146.. got so many rojak inside

in the moment. only PLUS CVT comes with 14" rims

for speaker.. i have no idea on the CVT model

Bodykits are std equipped item for both

yesterday i tried on WAZE GPS speed to check against the speedo meter.

this car meter is under read by 10kmh.. tested up to 110kmh and my car fitted with 195/50 R15.

I went to sticker shop to get it custom cut. 6" height..rm8 only per pc. Not bad...

Bleh buat bro. U have tell the designer to flip the image. Lekat dari dalam pUn boleh sbb vinyl material is the same colour front and back

Very true. In this case... the SV flx manual... they fitted body kit and paint the trunk garnish... it became Plus FLX Manual. The 13" steel rim kompang still there! And they offer rm700 discount during year end 2015..
