Yes, GX leather seat color is too much.. I don't like it.

For me only, exterior design(bodykit + rim) is more priority than interior(leather). Others more priority are rear DISC brake and main / front acoustic windshield..

That's the reason many bought lower specs and later upgrade it to GX 's aerokit, RIM, front grille chrome..etc. UMW TOYOTA should include these as STD spec, as new 2018 cars will surprisingly outshine on the road, with better many features.

What is your priority, if you are choosing between exterior(aerokit, RIM) and interior(leather, HU, speedometer) ?

I guess my priority is interior (leather, HU, speedometer) & rear disc brake compare exterior biggrin.gif Aerokit, RIM come later if budget allow.

Yeah agreed with you, UMW Toyota should have make it to stand to 3 spec (low, med & high) instead of (J,E,G,GX & TRD) ranting.gif

i bought my vios e spec last month and now already drive about 500km. here`s my quick sharing of my thought about this car.

the good:
1) easy to drive~ light steering & no problem to get used to it when upgrade from small car~
2) i like the look of this 3rd gen vios (even compared to the latest facelift version in thailand), althou not as sharp as city but "tahan tengok"~ haha~
3) cvt transmission gives smooth ride due to no physical gear change~ there is manual mode for overtaking and climbing hills~
4) cabin space is not the largest in segment B but still consider spacious~ sufficient head & leg room~ rear seat comes with arm rest~
5) 360 view camera its useful when you wanna park into a tight spot~ but most of the time i am still relying on the side mirror~
6) cruising at 80-90km/h the rpm is only at about 1500rpm~ so less engine noise heard compared to my old myvi~
7) smart entry is pretty convenient~ active safety features such ESC+ABS+TC is all i need in daily drive~ no other complicated thingy so less worry~
8) two usb ports given for handphone charging~ you can turn the 12v socket to usb if not enough~
9) the seats are quite comfortable~ i like the black colored dashboard~ easy to maintain~
10) the head unit position is high~ this is important for me as my sight is not totally divert away from the road when i look at the screen while driving. if you have budget go for G variant, there is button on the steering and you can control the HU without looking at the screen~
11) digital video recorder comes ready in my vios, so i dont have to waste money to get a aftermarket one~
12) basic solar tint included during purchase & full size spare tire~ 

the but:
1) throttle feel is weak~ probably is due to the engine is tuned to be more fuel efficient i guess~
2) the cvt noise is clearly heard when u stomp the gas pedal~ acceleration comes after sound~
3) feel lack of power between 30km/h to 60km/h, after 60 is ok~ still acceptable for me as i have the same feel with my old myvi~
4) lock/unlock car no alarm sound~ hard to find car in case forget where i park~
5) no alarm triggered if boot trunk is accidentally opened or not closed properly~
6) no temperature gauge~ only two blue & red color icon to tell you whether your engine is cold or overheat~

overall i am happy with my car~ choose what u love, love what u choose~  smile.gif

too bad i did not calculate the fuel consumption on my first tank and i re-fuel with petronas 97, at the moment still about 35% fuel left, estimated the mileage would be around 400-430km. 100% city drive with about 10% climbing thru hills~ honestly i did not expect good fc as i have not go thru 1st service yet~

my old myvi (1.3 manual) can go up to 430km from full tank down to fuel icon blinking~

Hi guys. I'm replacing my Proton Preve CFE 2012 with the Vios E (8k discount + 4.1k accessories) and booking has been made today 😁. I'd choose reliability over anything else. My first and last Proton.

I found mine improve after 10k service. Think becoz of fully syn engine oil.
