Hi all, planning to buy my first car which is the Persona !

But contemplating between standard variant and the exec variant. Any positive or good reasons for me to fork out extra 6-7k for the exec variant if the performance and the comfortability is the same ?

In my opinion, you either got for Standard or Premium... no point going for mid specs that don't get you much significant upgrades

I see. Thanks for the clarification. Guess I'll choose between the two since the additional 10k is quite burden for my student allowance

Since you're a fresh grad, get the Executive version and save few Ks instead coz..

1) if you fancy the Premium variant HU unit , its really mediocre at best and full of bugs / GPS outdated data. The money saved can be used to buy more superior HU from better brand.  I own a Premium version and really cant wait for the HU warranty to end next year or maybe wait 2 years to change to a better model. Now I just bear with it hmm..

2) You'll probably drive alone or with a passenger next to you (paktor?)  most of the time , seldom carrying full load.. so the 6 airbags doesnt makes much of a difference, 2 is adequate. All persona variants are packed with tons of safety features so you're pretty much protected there.

3) you can live without leather seats.

hi, read your comment on this. some say better don't waste the extra 6k just for exec variant since it's just more stylish etc. was thinking of going exec too but was given this opinion earlier
