QUOTE(sjz @ Jun 4 2009, 12:18 AM) it's weird to see ppl buying a manual car at the price more than RM86k. better buy auto, save all your hassle to change gear. i am using an auto grand livina and can't imagine how is it like if my car is a manual transmission. manual transmission for cheapo car like Proton still ok, but don't choose manual for car like Nissan, it's a waste and ruined your perfect driving experience. for an example, did you see any new Mercedes Benz around possessed m/t? for auto grand livina, confirm spare part won't be a problem, because most ppl are buying auto. for manual, maybe some specific part eg. the manual gear box spare part need to order & expensive forgive me but this comment is actually quite dumb.... civic type-r, 200k... wat transmission? manual... golf gti? manual... subaru impreza wrx? manual... alot of merc models come with manual transmission, just not here cos there's not a lucrative enough market as we are generally pro-auto... manuals arent just for cheap cars, its just generally cheaper than automatic gearboxes, heck, even lambos have 6 speed manual gearboxes... i understand u feel it is more justified to get an auto at that price but ruining your perfect driving experience? come on, true driving experience comes from driving a stick, auto just makes it easier and more comfortable for many... n btw, manual transmissions generally have longer lifespan, add to better topspeed n fuel economy compared to the average auto on passenger cars...

Grand Livina was actually the 1st auto car for my family.
Previously my dad owns 2 Nissan Sunny, Sentra.
Then Proton Waja, Satria, Perodua Kancil, Myvi all are manual.
My parents don't even drive the Livina cause they said they don't know how to drive auto. Just got it like a months ago.

One particular thing about my GL that I am not happy is that the audio player is not MP3 or WMA capable. I tried using a FM modulator with USB drive but pretty much useless, very bad reception. The audio player is 2-din type and I think it is not easy to find. When I sent my car for service, I read that Tan Chong provides an upgrade to MP3 and WMA capable 2-din type player, but at a hefty RM1,150, including trading in the original head set.

Yea somehow I feel now mostly cars also come with mp3 capable player.
This one doesn't. I feel the glove box is too deep also. Another thing is not much place to put my stuffs like my phone.

A shop quoted around RM800 for a 2-din Clarion player with MP3 capability, while another shop said that can choose a single din player with MP3/USB and add in a blank casing for RM30. But I was told that it will then void the original Clarion player warranty once changed. As my GL is only 6-month old, wondering whether is it really worth to change/upgrade?

The front grill is really nice...Anyone know how much is that (w/Impul) and how much is the cost plus installation/paint?
Are they metal or ABS type?

I found a 2nd Grand Livina from a dealer.
Model : 1.6cc ST-L Year : Apr 2008 ( 1year 4 months) Trans : Auto Mileage : 30,000km Colour : Silver Waranty : Valid till 2011
Price before discount : RM79,600
New car price after discount : RM84,800
Is it worth buying the 2nd Hand car? I will try to press price down to RM75,000.
How's the fuel consumption for 1.6cc? Everyone is asking me to go for 1.8cc, as better power and better fuel consumption, more accessories and goodies.
Please comment and advice.
