Will it under ultilize the 205 size tyre since the width is not wide enough?

have you book for the RS 2021 or waiting for the price, test drive the RS first?

some agent ask to book now, start apply loan now, once price announce they fix and change the price later before submitting the loan,
in order to get the city RS as early as possible next year

what do you think if do as what the agent ask for now?

this is what i dont like about our reviewers, they mostly focus on saying whats good rather than whats bad about a car, it makes it seem like the car does not have its issues.

this is how i kena sting with the Gen 3 Myvi, when it first came out everyone say damn good la so geng la, and to my untrained eye that time it does look great, such a step up from previous gen. So i bit the bullet and bought it as my first car.

then drive a few months and years only start to slowly notice the flaws, things like lack of noise insulation for wind and tyre, water splashing when raining loud like heck until i thought i accident when i first heard it, ride so stiff and hard until you go through the smallest bump also whole car sound like wanna fall apart (like come on my mom's 2003 Hyundai Matrix absorbs bumps better), small things like battery double in price cause of engine start stop system and wiper change to conti car style button wiper instead of hook wiper, and you cant find button wiper for myvi anywhere except at perodua which cost a bomb.

now with all this experience i looked back at all the videos and articles i saw and read that made me buy the myvi, my goodness they do not even inform properly on the severity of the deficiencies, even dare say noise is good and water splashing bearable, ride is good etc.

dont know if they are forced to say good things or what, but clearly they are not testing enough and explain things in a real world setting, who cares if the new myvi is 71db vs 73db in old myvi in the cabin when its unbearably loud going through federal highway everyday

Yes it's true, in fact not just cars review. That's why we need to read between the lines. When reviewers said "it's sufficient to drive in city...", "it's sufficient for *insert conditions*" that's usually clues of its inadequacy.

X50
Small passenger seats, great for couples but definitely not a great ride for your elderly.
Very small trunk space (but ALL youtubers saying it is big lah, it is ok lah bla bla bla )
The 360 camera is quite blur ( none of the youtubers mentioned this ).
GKUI of its radio doesn't support android auto or apply carplay, even the mirror link is so fcked up where you have to keep your phone awake to mirror link it. So much for a 10 inch HU huh?

Almera
Acceleration from stop is great, due to its turbo. but after 80kmph it is struggling so much it is so obvious, but all the Youtubers kept saying "ok lah u drive in City, no need lah" but it is really underpowered, for a RM91k car, to me of course.
The so called "Sport mode" is actually just the overdrive button on the gear knob. No sport mode at all for the New Almera, but all Youtubers all saying it is the "Sport Mode" button.
Other than that I feel nothing much to complain about Almera really. 
Love the zero gravity seats, love the reverse cam that the grid lines actually turns when you are turning your steering.

I am not saying City beats them all, but I hate the trend that those Youtubers trying to hide this and that or say something to compensate the obvious bad side of a car, due to the fear that they might not get to test drive the car in future or get invited to the official launch next time.

wonder why they so afraid to criticise. western reviewers slumber only say things like unacceptable and explain comprehensively why its bad.

there was this nordic reviewer that test hilux moose test years ago and it failed and it went viral like millions of views, end up toyota fixed the issue quickly and sent them the updated car to test again to prove its worth. this is how things are improved

Just wanna chip in. Msia auto reviewers are not that impartial. The bigger boys, in order to get invited to events, tends to filter their speech. Only the smaller players (that go out their own way to rent car) can be more impartial. So during launch, dun trust what reviewers say. Especially those that managed to get the car during media preview. They often are not encouraged to say the bad parts of the car. Those who do, will not be invited to next event. So to get a more accurate assessment of Car X, is to go listen review on Car Y, if the reviewer make a comparison against Car X, that is the only review about Car X that you can trust. Because that time they need to care about Manufacturer Y. so they likely will give more honest feedback about Manufacturer X. It's sad, but that's the reality of auto world in Malaysia. And another thing about reviews, is they often talk about features at that time, they are unable to tell you about the premature failure of certain parts, since they only test the car when it is new. Only users can share the overall owner experience. These info can only be found in FB/LYN forums.

actually i kinda disgree with this because there are a few reviewer that i know that stay in PJ/KL area and they would take perodua cars for days to do review, drive around and live with it kinda thing. to me la at least, after drive few years in own city/town i will sort of know where the roads are bad or good, and where it is a good place to test the car nvh or something. So if i am a car reviewer i will definitely drive around these parts and take note of the noise insulation differences, and compare to the real world effects vs other cars.

to be honest its quite hard to miss out that perodua cars have bad nvh and ride (unless totally dont know like me a few years ago haha), its a well known consensus and i am sure them being in car circles would have heard alot of it as well.

Yup its very clear they cut corners where they can, and take full advantage of developing markets and their lax laws compared to developed markets.

Sad but true reality

actually talking about safety i notice here in malaysia everyone like to comment (reviewers and commenters alike) that safety is based on things like airbag count etc etc, thats why people keep saying toyota now good cause 7 airbag but honda city/x50 only 4 airbag on base models.

but then, if you watch back that yaris/vios ncap test their a pillar actually bend from impact, and in my mind car structure is even more important that airbag per say, after all if crash structure doesnt hold intact no airbag can save you.

glad someone else actually feels the same as me, iGxragX and BoXbX actually quite biased towards Honda, any small thing also can attack but other brands they just sweep the obvious weaknesses under the carpet.
Anyway, just did my first service today. I am surprised they didn't schedule for an oil change and I am more surprised the default out-of-factory oil is actually mineral. Can the mineral oil last until 6 months/5000km? 

I pass by new citeh rs red color headed to rawang, no bad yo. Ingat vois 😂

The rear light noice lah.

Personally, the daytime led previous one better.

P/s: If the red color exclusive for rs, jadi betul lah nampak rs otr.

I looking mudguard cover

aiyo so tempting, but need to take off wheels and jack up... so lazy haha

I'm looking for this piece too... My old Jazz has it, not sure if the new City came with it, but I don't recall seeing any...
most of the time they do... else add another layer for foam or insulation material on top of that fender liner...

Why not buy gm6 daun pisang n try it on gn2? Most part in gm6 can go with gn2

Got mine ytd, very happy with it. But my SA said if you park under sun a lot the glue will melt

City's original screen is matte surface no...? Won't the glass protector introduces even more glare and more fingerprints...?
I'm getting my V-spec later today after 42 days of waiting... Why yours waited so long and which color you booked...?

It always has glue, for all kind of tempered glass. You will feel the stickiness with your finger when u just peel of the tempered glass.

But whether the glue will melt or not, it is depending on the quality of the tempered glass. If you park your car under sun for long duration, just have the habit to use the sunshade. It is not only to protect the tempered glass, but also to protect your dashboard.

Reason I am using the tempered glass is because I scare the screen is made up of plastic, like the Nintendo Switch. Easily scratched and damage done cannot be repaired.
Anyone dares to try to scratch on the screen to check if it is glass or plastic?
