Decibel Neutral Newbie October 14, 2005 Share October 14, 2005 Hi bro you seem pretty well informed about the Kelisa, any idea if the dealer would entertain me, a 20yo and let me test drive? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelisa10 Neutral Newbie October 14, 2005 Share October 14, 2005 they said auto FC is 15km/L, is it true? if so still not bad lah. If I can control well on my right leg (press soft) might get better result. Saleman not call me yet fro the COE bidding result. my max is 12K for COE, hope not increace. I applied a OPC at $20590 with COE. Recently view Perodua MyV at Msia, not bad, but only 1.3 have auto. Anyone can help me to answer below question: 1. As for FC for auto car for Picanto and kelisa, who will win? 2. SOHC with 4 cylinder or DOHC with 3 cylinder better? 3. 1.1 engine with 970Kg car or 1.0 engine with 807Kg better?

Wbucket Clutched October 14, 2005 Share October 14, 2005 Why not? Like they are going to chase you out of the showroom. As long as you have a valid license, who will stop you if you want to test-drive. Advise, go for manual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wbucket Clutched October 14, 2005 Share October 14, 2005 (edited) First of all. Auto FC.http://forums.delphiforums.com/n/mb/viewpo...&vote=0&msg=845 Manual FC.http://forums.delphiforums.com/n/mb/viewpo...&vote=0&msg=844 1. Can't tell. For light foot, both are equally matched. For heavy foot, Kelisa might just win. 2. DOHC anytime. But depends on you actually. DOHC, although feels more powerful, but being 3 cylinder its vibration is sometimes un-desirable. Picanto have know to be more stable when travelling at speed higher than speed limit. 3. If similar engine, of course the lighter one should have a bit more edge. Else same question as above. Picanto is more stable and comfort, Kelisa is more responsive. Lastly, I am a strong believer of Manual car. Cheaper price, better FC, easier to maintain, stronger engine respones. Actually you might want to test Picanto to re-affirm your decision. Picanto (Auto) is definitely no-go for a power hungry man like me.

Decibel Neutral Newbie October 14, 2005 Share October 14, 2005 (edited) Yep its manual or nothing for me too haha Will go down for a test drive sometime next week Edited October 14, 2005 by Decibel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelisa10 Neutral Newbie October 15, 2005 Share October 15, 2005 Thanks for your advice. Almost all pple said manual better.. Anyone support Auto or not? come up support me le.. Conclusion from me for my decision. 1. Manual is more powerful and better FC, cheaper and easy to maintain (but left hand and leg will be busy) 2. Auto make your left leg and left hand free (main for lazy pple like me), my driving skill not good, better go for auto. The only thing is need to spend more $$ for petrol and need to tolorent for slower speed. The car will slow like a turtle on the road. I have make my decision too fast on last time, i should do more survey before making decision. I alr put in $450 for my booking fee for a auto kelisa. Hopefuly I will not regret (red eyes) when i see other manual car pick up faster than me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wbucket Clutched October 15, 2005 Share October 15, 2005 There are definitely supporters of Auto, else why would most cars in Singapore comes in Auto rather than manual. 1 thing to know though, Kelisa's Auto is no joke. Like I said earlier, I have problem chasing some auto with my stock manual. Actually by default its performance is already rather impressive for a 1.0cc car. Usually small Auto car will be more weaken by its auto transmission, but Kelisa still retain its torquey feel. Say, did you try other brands before signing?

Kelisa10 Neutral Newbie October 18, 2005 Share October 18, 2005 I just change my Kelisa Auto to Manual. Hope that is a good choice. My color still remain as Silver. Did test drive for both Auto and Manual. Found Auto got some problem. First is the noise is louder than Manual Kelisa. Second is the Vibration is worse than Manual. Third is Manual Kelisa very easy to handle and fun to drive it. (I use to drive Van and never drive a manual car before, that is my first time to drive manual kelisa and feel so good and easy to handle it). Thanks for your advise.

Wbucket Clutched October 19, 2005 Share October 19, 2005 Auto's vibration can be lesser with the use of a proper voltage stabilizer. Anyway, auto and manual's handling should be the same, so I don't know why you think manual is easy to handle, but it is definitely fun to drive. O, if you haven't been driving manual for a while, gear shift is going to be something you might want to work on. Cause when I let my friend drive my car, she forgotten to up-shift rather often. And of course that goes for down-shifting. Anyway, have fun, and do drop by the kelisa forum for more info and lobangs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelisa10 Neutral Newbie October 25, 2005 Share October 25, 2005 Finally my SE get my COE for last COE bid. But I forced to get Auto instead Manual due to silver color stock not in yet (or i select gold color manual) . I just selected silver Auto, because the color is nicer. Hope that is a good decision for me lor. I will get my Silver auto Kelisa Mid of Nov. Can you teach me how to drive to make my Auto Kelisa to get better FC? If always drive below 2200rpm will get better FC? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
