if you can try the the executive, i miss out a lot for saving that few k.

about what to check, if your salesmen is good he will go through every single thing with you, if he is bad like mine
1. check full body, if there is any imperfection at all(dont take your car during rain), check whether the seam between metal parts, they should have even and small gap
2. go in to interior  check all  interior material, make sure no scratch at all
3. test all electronics, window, light, dials, LED everthing, have somone stand outside to verify the lights
4. check your reverse and front sensor, they are notorious for slow response
5.check windscreen  clarity
6. MOST importantly, check chasis and engine S/N number match your ownership title
7.  Drive a few rounds

All the best

Got my persona few days ago.. previous I drove a persona elegance also.. persona lover and this new persona doesn't disappoint me too.. other than ride n handling not as superior as previous PE, low speed jerky.. the rest are much much better than PE, I am quite surprised the car is very snappy! Power delivery is smooth n responsive. However some rattling appears after 300km drive.. already solved 2 rattling.. hehe.

yea bro.. really better.. as i am driving the new nana.. i tell the old nana is way way better.. significantly.. but the new nana isnt bad, its actually quite good too for a torsion bar setup.. and the car feels super solid! more solid than ever.. just some on n off rattling, guess its normal nowadays, even the new myvi or luxury has it..

If u want good handling with the new nana, change the stock laoya silverstone, lousy wet drip.. even dry grip also SOSO only..

yup... my old persona used potenza RE003 rclxms.gif

thinking to change once get new car ..or wait until it wore off

collected my new persona 1.6 CVT STD

so far seems "OK" ..quality up to my expectation (50k car standard)

only i felt when accelerate from standstill got 0.5sec to 1sec delay

which meant when i press pedal ..it take 0.5 sec to 1 sec before the car really start accelerate.

is there a way to reduce it? lol


and 1 more ...stock speaker is shit ..cant compare against my persona elegance 2011 H line laugh.gif

Its normal for this new persona , becaused drive by wire and cvt is clutch type.  smile.gif

if i am not mistaken ..someone mention at this thread can remap ECU atproton SC to improve responsiveness

QUOTE(Maxwell6635 @ Mar 24 2018, 05:26 PM)
Try to get 195 width size tye.

Goodyear Triplemax Assurance good enough, performance in dry and wet condition, road noise is acceptable.

CC6 is abit lose in wet condition grip.

Yokohama bluearth es32 or Yokohama Advan Fleva V701

Michelin  smile.gif

mine was goodyear tye as well...

handling is not up to my expectation ..driving 100 feeling is not same as previous persona

thinking to upgrade to 195/55/R15 Potenza RE003 once this tyre habis (probably another 1 and half year story)

True oso, guess silvertone got bad reputation for u. Im ok with it becoz I got a manual kelisa using cheap silverstone powerbliz all the while after changing from easy "pregnant" oem dunlop.

Unstandabled, I had brands that I will avoid too due to bad experiences :
1.dunlop: easy side bengkak
2.falken: pancit into bad shape at middle of the road.

Agreed that tyre are not something to jimat as safety come first . Hopefully proton can give at least conti or goodyear in the future for buyer confidence.

at least now proton no longer give silverstone to their customer and that's a good thing.
