Guys,

I think we all should have an open mind about the NAZA Sutera. Drawing up
conclusions without test driving both cars is not fair.

I myself a Proton Savvy owner would also like to test drive the NAZA
Sutera. It has all the right ingredients such as affordability and stand
safety features.

As a consumer I believe that we have to keep an open minded. Planning to
buy SAVVY but with SRM is coming out and NAZA SUTERA launched,
yippeee!!!.. there're so many choices that I can make.. Have to test drive
SUTERA 1st.. And do some research..

I'm got no comment with this car due to its market range, it still have
their market itself. but the only thing I don't like is the name... y
still keep up those xxsa xxna xxra... that kind of name? I prefer they
use back the code name: nx01.

Haiya...wanna higher hp buy bigger cc car laa!! Why must buy this city
car?? But if cant afford bigger car, just SHUT UP!! Ppl use this kind of
car mostly as 2nd car, `P` driver, send kids to school, driving short
distance etc.

What`s wrong if got Lotus handling? Chevvy, Kia Spectra/Sephia also got
Lotus handling input...but of coz la Lotus UK not the Malangsia LOTUS!!
Malangsia LOTUS only know how to adjust the +ve and -ve chamber to get
the good handling `feeling` coupled with hardened abs + spring rates!!!
That`s why all abs on Waja/Gen2/Savvy kaput prematurely!Big SmileBig SmileBig Smile

wah kwar.. whats the difference with malaysia lotus and uk lotus? lotus
is lotus, and the lotus engineers from lotus malaysia are also british
lotus engineers, but working in malaysia. do you think just
by "hardening" spring rates and compression/rebound rates will give you a
good handling car? You obviously don't understand anything about chassis
and suspension tuning.

please go post your rubbish elsewhere.

as for the sutera, i will definitely try the car.
i may not be in the market for it, but i'm sure there are people who
are.

Chasis strengthening is to minimize body flex during hard cornering. But
can u pls clarify what P1 has done in suspension dept? Did they ever done
any R&D or inventing something 'new' in the susp setup to improve
handling?? And tell me why most of their superb handling car tends to hv
the abs prematurely kaput? Most of conti's superb handling hv very long
lifespan on those parts! Wanna blame the vendor again???

For a start, there is no such thing as "inventing" something new in terms
of suspension. Tell me whats "new" that no other car in the world doesn't
have that a "conti" car has in terms of suspension, and which conti car are
you referring too? All cars have control arms, bushes, dampers(not abs),
springs(whether metal or air), torsion bars..etc.

Suspension component lifespan is purely based on the quality of components
used, how the car is used, road conditions..etc.

FYI, Lotus doesn't Invent anything new when working with OEM manufacturers.
It takes whats already on a car, and fine tunes it to improve its ride and
handling. If you have a car company, and you produce or manufacturer XYZ
car, you can call up lotus, and get them to tune your cars ride and
handling, and pay them to do it. They will not redesign your chassis or
suspension design.
