Try not to think of it too much:) i booked mine on 03/03 and i will be getting it this month. I didnt even think of it and most of the time, i forgot that i did purchase a new car. Now, 1 mth has passed and i feel the time is moving real fast. New car=more headache. You need to give extra attention/care to it.

FC consumption also depends on your wheel size/tyres type..etc (spark plug/voltage stabilizer). Petrol type didnt play much roles here. Most of the petrol give more or less same result.

i think waiting time now should be around 3-4 mths.
I made special arrangement with SA/Dealer(shop owner) and got my car real fast.
Booked 03/03/08.
Car arrived end of Apr but he is unable to get me cause i change my office #.
I paid DP on 05/05/08.
Waiting for my bank to clear remaining amt(took staff loan which is slightly longer than normal loan cause longer process).
12/05/08 got my car.

Overall i feel this car is very good and comparable to Vios/City. Only minor thing setback like the engine power. Maybe my car is still new. My 8 yrs iswara 1.5 Auto has better pick up rate compare to saga. Will update you guys more later

just trade in my tyres to get michelin xm1. Been using that tyres on my old car and it makes me feel safer smile.gif

I pump RM45 Shell V power when the meter shows 26KM and the petrol indicator blinking.

Now i am at 130KM (~100km) and the petrol bar only drop 1 bar. Very satisfy with petrol consumption even i havent reach 1000km and first service.smile.gif

I dont have any weird sound or vibration in the cabin. Only "wind" sound which i believe is supposed to be IAFM based on feedback from this forum. So far very good. Audio player and speaker also good which is totally unexpected. Need to do some tweaking to bass/treble.
Very stable car too

3 things i dont really like =
(1)AC very cold even i set at #1 and thermostat at 1/6. Turning AC to #4 will make your AC works like a plane turbine. Those with BLM will understand.
(2)The lock stud is not very user friendly. Slim stick and i notice it stuck up too much even in lock mode. <easy target for thieves.
(3)No cover for the button on the key. I tend to wrongly press on the alarm.. sleep.gif"

no money to change rims and i dont want to. I am working at subang area with many stolen/break in car cases. Dont want to create "extra" attention with nice rim.

trade in RM100 for each goodyear ducaro tyres.
RM160 for michelin xm1
Top up Rm240 for 4 new tyres.

Better comfort and stability but i cant comment on the noise because i always turn on my audio player.

Michelin tyres are famous for their smooth driving experience compare to some harder tyres which make you feel bumpy.
I dont know how to explain...but basically michelin tyres give me better shock absorption. I am using it on my old car (XM1) and so far the grip is good too. I am a fast driver(usually drive above 100kmh). Been using michelin for 4 yrs and never give me any grip problem (skidding).

All of that is my own personal view and not to be replaced with professional comment:)
