Wow. Both of you are so lucky to be the earliest Persona owner.
btw did you planning to straight away change the car tyre and rim after get the car?

change with light weight 16" rim + Advan DB
(quiet tyre) = comfort setting

Or

Change with light weight 16" rim + Re003
(stick like glue tyre)= sport setting

The car would look nicer with 16" rim. Especially solid white persona + black sport rim

Just go to showroom today with my dad for new Persona

The price is very very hard to say no

Worth every cent

Plss keep the update ones receive the car yaa..

well this is my review after getting my auto executive variant..
a day after get the car i drove straight back to my hometown, Kota Bharu, kelantan
from ipoh-->Kuala Kangsar-->Gerik-->Jeli-->Kota Bharu is about 216 km
my tank is 6/7 bars and reached KB with 2 bars left (didn't calculate t FC)
just drove with casual way and not heavy footer..all the way can say is on eco mode
as my RPM is below 3000..only for hill climbing on East-west highway Gerik-->Jeli no eco indicator
handling is better then my saga flx..most of the turns while on hill area can be maneuver easily at 90 to 100km/h except for sharp turn i just won't dare to go faster..(with wife and 1yo baby of course safety comes first)
CVT experience on this new persona is much better and smooth compare to very loud cvt on saga FLX when climbing hill..acceleration also good can overtake with more confident during cornering uphill or downhill.
NVH for me is acceptable bcos i dont know the NVH for previous persona(if compare with saga flx of course saga is way behind) after this if i run my persona on concrete pavement will update the NVH bcos is very loud when driving my saga.
On my way back to Ipoh full tank started at Tanah Merah and reached my home with 4 bars balanced(maybe half tank has been consume)..about 190 km.

Problems
1. My door on driver side seems not install correctly or got some defect bcos when driving above 60km/h u can hear some air entering through the door seal.(today already complain to SC but they didnt hv time to do so will make an appointment to
rectify this issue later.
2. Second is the dashboard rattle or krek krek sound somewhere at the centre..this sound appear when i reached KB..action taken by SC they said tighten something behind as for tonight no sound of the krek krek..will monitor for this few days if it will
occur again..sigh..
3. my headlamp level is very high..during my journey back a few cars and lorries flash me bcos of my headlamp eventhough i set to lowest level already..fixed today by SC.
for now thats the only problem from my 10 days old persona.

Just to ask another owner what oil SC use for ur car..mine is just mineral (5000km) and i didnt top up to semi or fully.
Is it true that if I use mineral then free service is until 30000km only..my SC told me that way..that means proton just giving 6 times free services??if want until 60k hv to top up and use fully..please clarify this..
or my SC just tipu..if have proof is better then i can argue with them next time

thats all for now

On the EO used for service, your SC is obviously lying. Just email Proton and you'll have the answer. Then print it out and slap it on the SC's face for lying. SCs like these give Proton a bad name and should be shamed...

Ok will do this next time..thanks

Did you use your front fog lights? I'm not sure about the new Persona, but they might be flashing you because it.

Nope..i didnt use t fog lamp unless it is heavy rain..
It is t headlight itself but now i think is all good after the fix

Yeah, i drove quite fast when testing the Persona, NVH definitely better than the M2, not too sure about City, when I tested City the NVH level was acceptable to me, but i didn't drive fast. On the plus side, with obvious road noise on the M2, you get a better feel of the road condition  tongue.gif , then again you get that with the firm suspension anyway.

The Persona is really great as an affordable and comfortable family car, having a family you don't have to impress girls with your ride  biggrin.gif

agreed with u Persona is a comfortable family car..not to impress girl..hahha
