That fact i totally agree with u.. we can feel the DIFFERENCE on handling..

you can ride a TRICYCLE and still feel difference between the body-rolling myvi lah.
the handling in a myvi is just, erm, sucks.

i still cant make up my mind between this saga and myvi, i was thinking to get myself a myvi asap since the waiting list for saga is too long for me; but now this body-roll problem in myvi makes me headache in making decision.. rclxub.gif

the body roll problem is apparent since the car is quite tall.
meaning you can't go and tackle corners as fast as in a sedan.
meaning you have to slow down on corners.
meaning there's no layan corner in it.

i could think of a few more reason not to get a myvi. but the most important thing is : THE PRICE.
it is quite pricey for the size. and if you're hoping to get a problem free 'toyota QC' with that kind of money, then tough luck.

power window problem is quite apparent. a lot (and i do mean a lot, me included) got power window problem. it's kindda like a plague that's affecting all myvi. do read more here, or take your time browsing myvi.com.my and MyviC?.

there's no such thing as toyota QC. some even got into a lot of problem with their unit. from driveshafts to leaking gearboxes to rattling steering columns to warping discs to rattling brake calipers and yada yada.

you might get a problem free unit, but it's getting tougher and tougher. and owh, rattling dashboard is quite common. and don't expect ride comfort. the suspension is kindda sucky.

if i have a choice between a myvi and other makes, i'll most definitely go for a Persona.
