2005 Proton Savvy review from Malaysia
"Not a driver's car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Problems with the AMT version immediate after purchase: bad gear change and slow response.
Problems with the AMT version after 2 yrs: unstable rpm, fluctuation rpm during idle, difficult to start.
General comments?
No matter how great its handling and the advantages are, avoid this car at all cost.
There are many more choices out there with less problems and at the same price bracket.
