what colour did u choose??

i test drive the m-line auto. overall i'm pretty satisfied, but one thing that really disappointing is power kicking in pretty slow. it's like you gotta wait a while for the oomph to come after you stepped on the pedal. but i haven't drove a 1.3 vehicle before, so not sure if that's normal. but if compared to 1.5, i'd say it's a very huge difference.

I booked my Saga on the first day of the launch.  I didn't get to test drive it until today, about few hours ago.

I am not an expert in cars, neither have I driven more than 4 types of car.  I have only driven City, old Saga, Kancil and Viva.  So I may not be able to give you good comparison, but here is my view:

I drove the M-line auto version.  The engine started smoothly with nice start up sound.  When I pressed on the pedal to start going out to the street, I thought I didn't engage on the right gear because the car wasn't really moving.  But when I stepped the pedal further in, I could feel the power coming in slowly.  It's good in a way because the power didn't come all of a sudden, and it came very smoothly.

The ride was comfortable with good sound insulation, probably because I didn't dare to go too fast.

I didn't really test the power of the car, but what I liked the most was that the car went on a sail, very smooth sail.  I had a very comfortable ride, but it's too short a ride to judge whether it will be comfortable for longer drives.  I would want to bet that it's going to be comfortable for longer rides as well.  The seats are very comfortable as compared to the old Saga and Kancil.

The handling is just superb.  It's a joy driving the car.  It's spacious and is certainly a good choice for young families out there.

As I said, it's just a very short test drive.  It's good to hear from those already owning the cars and driving them every day. 

Oh, just to share with you.  I am dealing with a salesgirl whom I think is kinda weird.  She asked her colleague, "In a test drive for customers, who will be driving the car?  Do we drive the car or the customer?"

hmmm....i booked my car 1 day after launching...do i still have to wait 5 months?
Cant wait la...haha...
Oh by the way...gong xi gong xi to all FnF gang...

I heard 1st batch of buyers will be getting their car before CNY? No news d?

... & i'm one of them. Will get new baby tomorrow

I prefer the signal right hand side. 
Left hand are busy on shifting gear +  adjusting music volume + holding tight 'her' head while she's busy having some pleasure 'down there' 

I'm not very good with cars too, this is my first car also... Just by the first impression looking at the black WKC191 Saga photo leaking everywhere on the net, i decide to own this car... 
At least, if my choice is bad, its cheap car right?? If not satisfy enough, buy another new car la   
BTW, very lucky this saga really suits me.. 

Yeah I was hoping to see one too. Since I did make an order for it. 

----------------------------------------------------------
so u means i may get my car sooner...?? cos i booked b line model on 27 jan...

------------------------------
me also booked grey....haha...

haiz,i booked at 18 jun morning b4 lunching. i just called my SA today,he say my car will coming on nxt month or april.sad sad sad.......
i select silver ,grey and white.don know when my turn,this 3 colour still available or not?i booking at EON................(i think proton edar is better)

hi 5, man...blue seems nice to me too..wondering if i able to get the car b4 my loan get approved? 

Ok. that's it. I won't have a hard time making up my mind now. Honda City it is!!!
Going and coming back from KL, i saw about 14 trailers, 7 carrying perodua myvi's and viva's, 4 carrying toyotas but only 1 carrying protons. and of the 6 or 7 odd cars stacked on the trailer, only 1 of it was a BLM. a silver one. the rest of it were the old sagas 

buy proton is like tht la...u gamble ma...lucky u get cars wif out any faulty part syok lor...u unlucky..u spend a lot of time at SC, Feeling cheated and frustrated.All boils down to QC.

Now come to think of it....it's worth paying more for a MyVi, at least u know u would not get a lemon.My mum has a myvi, 2 years..no problem at all..nvr need to repair anything, not even absorbers.I have a few frens who drive myvi...no complain..nvr claim warranty also, plus it's more fuel economical and u know the design is good bcos the amount of money and resource perodua's parent daihatsu/Toyota has for R&D is bigger thn protons n thy definitely can afford to spend on R&D since myvi's platform and engine is also used in Daihatsu sirion/boom and also toyota passo thy have economic of scale.Since daihatsu sirion and toyota passo are sold in Europe, thy hv to meet certain safety standards.U can be sure myvi will not be a milo tin wif wheels.
