BUT… BUT.. beware for the spare part.. so damn.. donola what is wrong with naza… had an accident and i had to wait for 4 month to get all the spare part.. but still endup with no spoiler.. the workshopman have return me cash since cant get part for the spoiler.. damn..

Anyone from Sabah kk….check yourself guys….you know where to check

personally, like king said… i found out that sutera's interior are really poor quality.. dunno what kind of materials they use but it looks & feel really bad.. don't think it last longer too… but anyway parodua more less the same too

so at the end.. don't say others if yours the same

have to admit the sutera's plastic switches and interior is really poor quality though.

I know for a fact this car is decent since i HAVE ONE!, minor problems (then again no one can build a car without any problems). Saw a car magazine in the UK, this car is awarded 3/5! u guys know how brutal european magazines can get so im impressed with the rating. thats what made me get it.

for the sportivo, wish i got it instead. spoke to the Naza guys…for rm3k, its definitely worth the money. Think the sports seat, rims & tires, and momo accesories are already worth more than 3k already.

well this is just my opinion, since i own a Sutera! Hope to convert soon

later

>>

>> 3. On my second day I got the car, I park it outside my office.

>> Raining heavily that morning. I came out from the office just to

find

>> out that my driver and passenger behind the driver seat is flooding

>> with water.

>> The rubber at the door is no quality at all. Water went inside. I

fixing

>> because the mechanic have to do inspection to find where the water

>> turning the stereng left and right to fixed the cover.

>>

>> 5. the black plastic bottle that contain liquid (not sure for what)

>>

>> 6. During the second day my car at the service centre, since I have

>> free time that day, I accompany the mechanic doing his job fixing

the

car.

>> Suddenly the mechanic shouted angrily.. I ask him what happened?

>> Guess what, the hose that connect the fuel pum to the tank is

wrongly

>> to replace it. Under warranty.

>>

>> 10. The engine will make a loud of noise.. really loud when the

speed

>> reach 110 ? 120KM/H Depending on you luck. One of the owner that I

>> meet at the service centre claim his car make noise when the speed

>> reach 110KM/H.

>> The

>> sound like when in the airport terminal and in front of u are one

>> aeroplane ready to take off. Lucky for me, the sound only happened

to

>> me when my speed reach 120KM/H.

>> Guys.. trust me, the sound is very loud and weird. I own kancil &

Honda.

>> Even my kancil also not making that kind of sound even the speed

>> reach 120KM/H.

>>

>> 11. NAZA are making a very stupid and big mistake . Giving a very

bad

>> first impression to it?s customer. Guys, my review alone had cause 4

>> of my colleague canceling the booking. One of them already planned

to

>> get the car for his future wife.. straight away switch to ATOS.

Ooh..

>> Yes, almost forgot, how I wish I got videocam during the time the

>> mechanic fixing my car on the second day at the workshop. Because on

>> that particular day, I had become an unofficial mechanic working for

>> the service centre.. Want to know why? Well.. because there were a

>> lots of

>> simple2 faulty and big faulty, I had to help the mechanic to fixed

>> all the small faulty while he doing the big job. Small faulty such

as

>> tighten all the loosing screw driver. Not counted the screw that

does

>> not got into the hole.

>>

>> Conclusion? If there is an award for the most low quality and

>> ridiculous car of the year, I guarantee you guys NAZA SUTERA will

win

>> the award .

>> Trust me, I am not someone from perodua or proton. I bought the car

>> for my wife birthday present. I bought her kancil 4 years ago.

>> Luckily I still did not sell the kancil yet. After I got this

>> ridiculous Sutera, now only I learn to appreciate the kancil so

much.

>> With less problem and good quality, I feel really comfortable with

>> it. Guys.. I don?t want to make u canceling your SUTERA booking.

>> Please, go ahead.. but since there were a lots of problem with the

>> first batch of Sutera.. maybe u want to consider wait for the next

>> batch. The mechanic at the service centre told me that their SA cant

>> make sales anymore because NAZA had stop producing the car for

>> temporary to settle all the mess they had made.

>> All the car that still in the loading bay had been calling back to

>> factory for second round inspection.

>>

>> guys.. sorry.. i have some more to added.

>>

>> 1. The big screw that hold the tyre is rusty.

>>

>> 2. the front brake disc also rusty. both left and right.

>>

>> 3. if u turn off the engine, dont forget to turn off your radio

first.

>> My SA told me to do so when i pickup my car. I dont trust him. On

the

>> second day (the day i am driving my car to the workshop to fixed the

>> problem that cause my car flooded with raining water) i forgot to

>> turn off the radio, after 2 hours, when i press the blue alarm

button

>> to open my car, it only make sound, but the car is not opening. I

>> tried for about 10 times.

>> still

>> the same. I have to open the car manually. start the engine and let

>> the battery recharged, then only the alarm is functioning back to

normal.

>> Told

>> the service centre about this problem, they claim WHERE GOT! When u

>> off the engine everything will turn off.

>> But why my SA and the service centre have different version of

story?

>> Well.. the conclusion is, there might be bug with the radio or the

>> wiring.

>> Not sure.. will give more review on this matter next time if problem

>> occur again.

>>

>> ** GUYS.. ALL THE COMMENTS ABOVE IS MADE FOCUSING ON MY CAR. MY

>> COMMENT DOESNT MEAN IT HAPPENED TO ALL THE NAZA SUTERA.. DIFFERENT

>> OWNER WILL HAVE THEIR DIFFERENT PROBLEM.. THAT IS WHAT I FOUND OUT

>> DURING MY DAYS CAMPING AT THE SERVICE CENTRE.. MEET 3-4 SUTERA

>> OWNER.. EACH WITH DIFFERENT PROBLEM..

>> THIS IS WHAT I CALL MENGARUT!!!

>>

Well.. from my point of view, with what u hev told that tell 2 things;

1)Naza wanna slash down their profit to sell more. i think they know by now their price are 'rocket high'..and try buying their luck by adding new goodies with not so much additional price–>"…you can get good goodies from naza, because the car is so cheap in the first place, they can add all these goodies, and still sell at a profit, and sell cheaper than proton/perodua.

2)P1/P2 are the bad guys coz they still offer the same price with the same quality… now, that make them look cruel is it?

Have a balanced perspective on things. No one is in the car business for fun or from the goodness of their heart to give cars to people. It's a business, first and foremost. Things like Sutera Sportivo are part of a bigger plan to get more people to pay attention, cut through advertising clutter and consider one more closely.

In that respect, it's accomplished it's mission! Over 40 comments here and I'm sure they can push all the units out very quickly.

wake up and smell the roses buddy you can get good goodies from naza, because the car is so cheap in the first place, they can add all these goodies, and still sell at a profit, and sell cheaper than proton/perodua. So what does that tell you?

well i think all of this is more to preference, if you guys are just looking for a dirt cheap(in malaysian definition of cheap cars), looks and some branded acc, so go on la with this sutera.

1. Economical or not (in this case not), it is an ugly car. Better cost-benefit from a second-hand kelisa. Savvy has best feel n value in class. MyVi still best looking in class.

2. Quality?…those of you building up interest on this car, I suggest get a test drive in a 3 month old sutera. Tat will put u off like a cold shower.

2. WTF is sportivo? history? heritage?

Naza products slowly starting to disappoint. I applaud the marketing and R&D team for a good effort but not a smart move. Its the worst car to work on. Shud hav jez left it as it is. Could have made more margin, more volume as a pasar malam car and not make a joke of the unproven sports brand. It killed two birds with one stone. The unassuming image and the sportivo future.

well.. i totally agreed with u when u said "…will opt for a Sutera, Atos or a QQ anytime rather than buy a useless nasty expensive proton/perodua" think like this, when u want to buy low quality product better goes with the cheapest one.. still waste of your hard earn money but at least u safe a little bit rather than buy a same low quality product with nonsense price!!

but.. in reality i rather invest my money elsewhere rather than waste it to a product that 'buat sakit jiwa je'.. haha

hmm.. maybe goes with buffalo cart like moterhead suggested )

Same goes to P2, if they ever produce Myvi Sport with no tuned suspension & engine. I heard Sutera has alot of problem and I come to a conclusion that this Sportivo is absolute bullcrap. Thank you.
