The Review

Very comfortable to drive around the city.
Very good value for money.

I took it up to KL with my wife and 2 kids to do some mileage. The ride was very smooth. Kids slept all the way at the back even through the bumpy parts. Fuel comsumption was better than expected.

Really love the exterior shoulder line and the front. Looks very masculine yet soft at the same time. Certainly drew some stares from the malaysians when we pulled up at the rest points.haha

It has very good ground clearance as well. Managed to clear the MSCPs with superb ease especially on the humps as compared to the Civic.

Previously considered getting the Civic but the Cruze was cheaper and a much more comfortable ride. Certainly no regrets on getting this car.

The Review

This is a very excellent car.
Value is the best deal here.
Performance is reasonable and impressive.
Packed with so much gadgets and features.
Safety level is reasonable.
Drove it to Malacca to see if the paper spec are true.
The result turn out to be better than I have expected.
Drove it to Jurong Island every working day.
Kanna 12 demerit points cum court case for speeding.
Watchout for the acceleration.

Abit noisy but still consider very soft.
The suspension abit soft, obvious when the road is uneven.
4AT gear box instead of 5AT gear box.
Bodykit too low, always kanna when coming out of MSCP.
especially Novena Square 2 MSCP.

The Review

For an entry level executive sedan, X type distinguishes itself by its inherited XJ/Daimler looks, thereby looking classy and importing a luxurious aura for its ride & driver (but try to stick to light colors). Jaguar is niche and received as an affluent car category, so sporty performance is not its pride spec., remembering also its gross weight nears 2 tonnes and it's specially built long for that classic limo feel. Kept closely exclusive, the V6 basic model (as opposed to 4 cylinder engines of 3 series, C & E Class like Japanese counterparts) without compromising inclusion of any SUV/MPV or compact hatchbacks makes this marque distinctly desirable and unique on local roads.

Strengths

Good Power to weight ratio. CVT smooth drive, tiptronic sporty drive, extremely powerful when boost more than 0.5 bar.

Electric Tailgate, HID light, 4 disc brake, unique features like ACS, 4 auto electric windows. Front Ralliart Air Dam is tastefully designed.

A powerful car in disguise for most people.

Weaknesses

Roll and soft body. High on fuel consumption when rev often. Not much aftermarket parts to mod relatively. Back suspension seated easily although its stiffer than normal Colt Plus.

Bad sound proof, noisy during highway cruise. Tight engine bay meaning hard for additional mod equipment and hard to work around for mod.

Egg look alike, that makes the car looks not that sporty. No keyless start/entry, no fuel consumption meter, need to push hard (meaning more fuel) for low end.

The Review

Armed with features that can only be found on high end cars like electric tailgate, HID lights, auto 4 windows control, ACS.

Smooth acceleration with the roaring MIVEC, turbo spoof in at 2k+, sweet tune and power at this range. Sports mode for instance overtaking. Spacious boot with collapsible rear seats for even more bulky item. Dual layer trunk boot.

Good for young adult who yearns for a sporty ride yet with more boot space. Insurance only favours 30s and above, but then fuel consumption is still affordable and sweet for a turbo car if not rev too often, road tax is low.

Handling has to be mod for better ride and cornering.

Strengths

Good list of equipment: 17" Rims, Immobiliser, Spoiler, Skirtings, Steering Remote, AVC (Auto Voice Control I suppose), High driving seating position, Big Side Mirrors, Arm rests for both passenger and driver, side mirror signal lights.

Honest Pricing: Price as seen with all features above without additional $$ for additional features

Responsive acceleration.

Big boot.

Auto Climate Control.

Made in Japan (though there's alot of Japan models being recalled).

Weaknesses

Responsive engine but kind of loud when floored. If you like the sound, then it will let you feel that you are driving a sports model.

The ugly square hole that is found near the front passenger's door. Can existing owners tell me whether you have the same issue? My agent told me that it comes like this.

The Review

For the AVC, it has 3 levels and supposed to auto raise the head unit's volume as you speed up and reduce as you slow down to a stop. So far tested with the volume raised at 60km/h.

With the 3,888 hong bao at about S$59k with about S$20k for the COE with all the features and about $15k OMV, I find that it is rather a good deal than the
