I've been driving swift for 5months, so far so good, having lots of fun driving this car.
1 thing bad about this car is... their spare parts could cost you a bomb

Last time my friend(swift also) bang a taxi and he sent his car for repair, changed 1 x front bumper, 1 x headlight, 1 x radiator, 1 x hood and some minor items I guess, cost him RM10k++ for insurance claim

Some more swift is not like vios or city which has more people using it, so we have less local manufacturers produce our parts, so sometimes you have no choice but to buy original(this is where it costs you a bomb) which is imported from Japan.
Last time I saw a hood at SC, got airplane tag hanging beside, from japan

Yes, insurance will inflate the price like you said, even if you pay yourself for the repair, it ain't cheap, only a front bumper already cost you around 1k, even if you get aftermarket bumper, which is going to cost you around 700 also.

No one knows the answer... asked SA and he said no news from SMA...
But there is a 1.0litre car coming in soon, I am not sure which one...pricing around 50k

qp, already floating SCM also not enough, mao come here float as well?

If the car is in stock condition, yes you still have 2years plus warranty. And check the service booklet, if the owner service the car at authorized service center every time.

Covers what other jap's car cover... full details please refer to the user manual.

you need to change the horn! I tak boleh tahan with the ori horn... if you press longer a bit, the horn like not enough power, sound will lari lol

I use RON95, RM50 can go 360km

mine is November 2009, I guess something wrong already... please check your feet

Tarak face this before.

1 thing I don't like the stock brake pad, need to apply more pressure compare to other cars I drove before...

RM300 included paint? I was quoted RM450 for paint + installation...

Yes you can ask them to tune for you, they might charge you an amount for the service.

Tighten the cable is same like you press the pedal harder, it is useful when you floor the pedal.

The best I can get is 15km/l, got it once! Tiap tiap hari listen to Kenny G, cruising around 90km...

You step on it a lot? Try not to force the car to accelerate at low speed

Can't imagine that your swift sport could manage 6.5/100km FC... mine is swift just could get 7.6/100km FC...

A lighter footer on a revvy engine?

White color? Make sure you have time to clean your car weekly, or maybe twice a week. If you are lazy on cleaning car, forget about white color

40k KM, in Japan they recommended to change every 80k KM, SC told me that we change earlier because of our hot weather

Don't de-cat la... not good for our planet...

My family have both swift and fiesta, me myself is driving swift, both are great cars. Fiesta wins in most of the aspects compare to swift. From acceleration, technology, NVH, features and design, swift could not beat any of these except for the price. I don't think Inspira or Forte can give you the fun that fiesta can provide. it is just like people say "While for the price of Swift I could get Vios which is better than swift".

Just my 2 cents, no offence to fellow forummers here.
