QUOTE(keithwwk @ Jul 31 2017, 09:39 AM) Is the paddle shifter usefull? Does it added some fun or excitement? City seem a lot of options to cboose for driving patterns like normal D, eco D, S mode, D+Paddle shift, S+paddle shift, etc.. Some car got M mode with + - gear engagement thru gear stick is actually sama sama to paddle shifter? Useful whenever you want to have manual overide e.g. during overtaking. So you don't have to take your hands off the steering wheel to reach the gear lever. S+paddle shift if somehow stupid IMHO as S alone is far more intelligent to find the optimum gear ratio for you during spirited driving. Tested S+paddle shift during Genting climb, felt more intrusive compared to letting the CVT S-mode alone do the job. If flat, windy road, can use S+paddle shift as it is more fun to play around different "gear" when taking corners.

I do say its the opposite experience for me. Especially when going up to Genting, I prefer to stay longer in lower gears to increase torque (essential for speedy hill climbs). So using S+ paddles helps me to stay in the torque zone especially when uphill corners. I tried using D after balai polis and gaveup using auto controls just b4 the big roundabout. The car keeps upshifting thereby losing builtup torque and CVT rubberband effect made it tricky to predict when the shiftpoint engages. One part I loved was sweeping the uphill hairpin using D3-D2-D3 without losing much speed. That was... interesting.
Downhill its no brainer to use S mode. Mainly for engine braking, no much touge thru the corners. The bouncy suspension and high ground clearance makes it bit unstable with lotsa body roll.
Oh but im speaking thru my experience of using a manual persona, so my preference for more driving controls is my own opinion. Protons are more sensitive to staying in the zone when spirited driving, so I go used to doing that with the paddles in my City when in S mode.

QUOTE(keithwwk @ Aug 4 2017, 12:24 PM) Very popular colour. Lunar silver metallic seem not laku.. why leh? LS more appealing with macho looking car like civic, especially when contrast with black front grille insert. When on less macho looking City, on the other hand, it looks dull. Only slightly darker than previous Alabaster Silver.

QUOTE(fin8Ex @ Aug 5 2017, 11:20 AM) lunar silver tak laku? serious? how u know? alot of lunar silver in showroom?  Dont take it the wrong way. LS works for civic but perhaps not so on City. As I said, it needs a macho car with sharp edges to bring out the colour. From my observation lah, when I booked my car there were City FL with MS, LS, Black & pre-FL AS. I compare different colour and seeing the LED DRL most striking on MS & black while it "blends" in with LS painted body, making the DRL not so obvious. But on the flip side, less buyers going for LS means urs will be unique and quite special lah. So be happy with ur choice.
