Well the complaint with the current gen 2 are now adressed. Last time ppl complain that the gen2 dont have a glove box and the rear seats adoes not have enuf headroom. Well now the persona has a glovebox and better headroom.

We could say that its the REAL gen2. and for he price of 45k this car is really a bargain. tell me what other 1.6l car with this kind of space is selling at 45k? None right?

and the car is quiet....
icon_idea.gif

handling wise, is sorely lacking maybe cuz i drive a neo and i attempt to drive this persona like how i always drive my neo
tongue.gif

a good buy... at this segment...

big and comfortable interior for its segment, [b]big boot[/s] which a certain KLCC car dun have, auto lock (which a certain godlike car also dun have), nice balance between handling and comfort (u wont get the feel that the car will gonna turtle under heavy cornering unlike another certain car) although u will tend to understeer

but then again, just wait and see how it goes,
initial hoo-hah wont do nuts.......
