I have booked a unit of proton s70 today. I'm still deciding premium or flagship model? For sure executive and flagship x is out. What's your opinion?

Got budget then flagship, no budget also find a way to make up the few thousands for the flagship. On paper flagship is definitely the best buy

We mainly city drive only. Very seldom go outstation. Still need those safety features?

Executive vs Flagship would be a better comparision, since only singnificant difference between the exec and premium is reverse camera which you can pasang sendiri/shop.

The main consideration will be do you think you need ADAS or not. Its more of a safety net in case anything that might happen, but can be preventable with good driving. Personally, i feel passive safety is more of a importance compared to active safety. Some people also do think that all these electronics are more troublesome that useful (I hate the keyless start because when it fails, can be a bit or troublesome).

If you are only doing city driving, then only the auto emergency braking and blindspot monitoring is of any use.

Long story short, you mau active safety ke tak? If you can't decide, then just go for flagship if you have the cash. You can use this as a chance to try out the ADAS (hopefully you dont come in a situation the needs it).

I notice flagship got Online Navigation while Premium doesn't have. What it means? And flagship maintenance cost is higher right compare to Premium?

Flagship jer lah, no need to think.

Besides the cost, I think I want a more comfort ride with smaller tyre esp here got many potholes lol. better for suspension also.

Ride Comfort:

16-inch tires: Often provide a smoother and more comfortable ride because of the taller sidewalls which absorb more shocks from potholes and rough roads.
17-inch tires: Can provide a firmer ride due to the shorter sidewalls which offer less cushioning.

IMO, Premium spec looks to be the most cost effective one. Problem with fancy gadgets is they are expensive to fix/replace.

yeah and also very fast out dated.
