My Life as an OEM Exec.

I like it. It’s a fascinating job pretty much every day of the week, I really love it as much as ever. To say it’s paradise might be a bit too much, but it sometimes gets close to that. I enjoy travel, visiting car factory and learn a lot about car.

TEST DRIVE: Proton Saga 1.3 AT

I recently got a chance to test drive Proton Saga 1.3 AT. Relax chaps, it's actually not bad. As a typical Malaysian cars, the interior is simple. The dashboard is wide that you can play tennis on it. I am impressed with the legroom and the head room that I think enough even for the tallest guy in your neighborhood. The Noise-Heat-Vibration (NHV) is quite good and it's better than Myvi. The engine run smoothly although I think it needs more power since the power/weight ratio is not so good. If you are working as a professional kidnapper, this is a-must-buy car since there's a huge amount of space in the rear boot.

It's a bit confusing when they put signal switch and rev meter at the left hand side, I don't like it to be honest. I'm sure that the rear visibility is better than Gen.2 but with an absence of rear viper it can creates rear visibility issue at certain time. Driving at night could be tough since the automatic gear doesn't come with light to indicate the gear position. So, the only way to know it, is by looking at the meter every time you want to change the gear.

You probably have a mental problem if you think this Saga is a good looking car. No, it's not a good looking car. If you are 24 year old this car will makes you look like a 42 years old man with 5 kids. But, who cares? With price tag below RM40K it's a worth buying.
