Just curious, did you get the tng card then for the test drive?
Good review.

Loud rear aircon? I thought the fix it with new avanza model (I'm making assumption sienta also would be "fixed") already coz older models like mine had this really loud front air con noise when max. Will need to check this out during test drive.

Try the rear blower on all settings, at number 1 its acceptable. Moving to max, i thought the windows were not closed tightly at first. Conversations in car still ok. Just that the position of the blower is actually quite close to the front passengers head. How also sure bunyi. But was thinking, if i were to use it as a five seater, maybe not necessary to on the blower at all?

By the way, saw the grey color unit at ioi putrajaya today. The color seems to suit the car perfectly, despite missing out on the contrasting black elements. How to choose color laaa like this... icon_question.gif

i just chance my color decision from silver to grey after i saw & test drive the grey sienta at puchong.

i also tested the aircon blower for passenger. as claimed, it pretty loud when u go for max, at 1 or 2 is accepatable level. but this is common for non luxury car where the blower noise is irritating when u go max.

i tested to drive at place that steep & found that the engine will go loud as u needed to push it over 4k rpm to gain max torque but its acceptable for me since we cant compare with turbo charge / high cc car. with 1.5 engine, i think its good for daily use & occassionaly mountain road drive. if for those work in genting, perhaps u might think other options if u plan to go v ease v the road conditions.

Based on my earlier postings, grey color would be one of my choices. Good to hear that it suits the car.

Haiz, I really didn't plan to get the car now but it's so tempting now. Hope I stick with my plan.

No discount now for sure. According to SA, year end will have. No surprises here.

I did a quick test drive due to limited time on my part. Overall, very silent car, smooth drive and easy to maneuver. Rear air con was kinda loud.

There is a trade in promo for avanza cars only if you wanna buy sienta.

Good try UMW.. It's still bunch of fans.

If the third row is not important. But u want to have large capacity boot.

Why not HRV low spec? The price is more or less the same.

Say yes to 1.8L engine
Say bye to auto door

Give & take

i believe the option between large cargo and 7 seater is a deal breaker for some.

The HRV will have a large cargo but thats it.

Hermm.. Had an eye for HRV before, but cant bring in 2 bicycle inside, no low floor with high roof, no power sliding door, and most importantly no rear aircond

Summore i need 5 people inside but still comfort, 5 adult inside HRV kinda cramp, even in CRV is not that comfortable.. So with 7 seats, not most of the time utilize for 7 people..

And rm100k for HRV is for low spec, while rm100k for sienta is full spec..
Well this thing depend on personal opinion la.. My home got CX-5 already, so no need another SUV..
and the waiting list.. is killing me.. sweat.gif sweat.gif

but HRV also not bad.. its lighter then sienta, with 1.8 engine sure a lot faster in acceleration
electric parking brake sure come in handy bcoz its electronic compare old style cable hand-brake for sienta
but no EPS for HRV kinda weird.. nowadays even Bezza is EPS steering system
