2.0 2WD (2015)
Bought new, Owned for 1 Year
Fuel Economy: 100.0 km/litre (1.0 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 130 km/month
    Easy to handle and great safety features. Road noise well suppressed although they could have out-classed the Camry if they put some extra effort on sound padding. Love the 3rd Gen CVT, I dont know why I ever subscribed to those 3/4/5/6/7 speed gearboxes, seems archaic after trashing the X-Trail
    I'm comparing with my outgoing Camry 2010, body roll can be be overcomed with a better tire, but is really no as bad as Gregory puts it.

1.6 VVT Executive CVT (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 1 Year
Fuel Economy: 11.5 km/litre (8.7 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,000 km/month
    By far, compared to the Myvi 1.5, this car feels like it has more power, despite the fact the Iriz is much heavier (over 100 kg more) and only has a little bit more power than the Myvi. Its a very eager car, very darty and just goes when you press the accelerator.

    Handling has always been Proton's strong point and the Iriz doesn't disappoint[...]
    CVT transmission is a bit of a mess really, especially in the early days. One of the main issue was that when pulling away in traffic, it has a delay before the car actually moves, despite still being in drive.

    6 airbags on the highest spec only was expected but the pricing of the highest one is steep, putting this car out of the reach of ma[...]

118i Sport (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 2 Years
Fuel Economy: 11.0 km/litre (9.1 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,000 km/month
    Engine and transmission on this BMW 1 series is absolutely fantastic. For a 4 cylinder 1.6l engine it is punchy yet has no turbo lag at all. I initially was not having much expectations for the 1.6 in this, cause it shares some roots with the Mini Countryman's 1.6 turbo engine, which in turn is not the best engine ever (lots of turbo lag).

    Ho[...]
    Limited rear space is something you have to get used to. While improved over the last 1 series, the RWD layout causes it to have a large transmission tunnel in the rear, thus meaning it is not comfy at the back as per the VW Golf or the Volvo V40. It's not bad, but certainly only 2 can sit at the back. For a small family however with kids, its a[...]

    - Powerful for a 1.6 engine

    Constant breakdown. Less than 2 years, the following issues: --

    1) Temperature sensor faulty, need to tow the car back to repair. (before the 1st Service)
    2) Aircond not working. Need 1 FULL day to diagnose the problem. I did managed to talk to another owner (Peugeot 3008), his car less than a month, he has been going in and out of the wor[...]

    Nice looking
    TCS, ESP, ABS, EBD ,BA, Airbag as standard feature across all variants
    Worth every penny
    At this price point it does provide more accessories, safety feature, better performance compare to it's main competitor(Myvi 2015)
    Lot's of USB charging port, kudos!
    Very good at handling with this price point
    Acceleration of this car feel kinda heavy
    Proton infotainment system is locked down(even though there's some way to install play store(Google service) on it
    When handbrake is released it will stop any video(can be fix with installing mx player) or wifi that is currently using on the infotainment

Fuel Economy: 15.0 km/litre (6.7 L/100 km), RON97, Mileage: 5,000 km/month
    Good handling with nice steering.
    Nice front view, the halogen projector look stunning.
    The space inside is quite big for a hatchback, really comfortable seat.
    The sound system is so so.
    Many USB port 1.5 and 2.1, also a lot of drinks holder.
    Door close sound seem like an expensive car.
    Reverse camera not so clear at night.
    The android touch screen is hard to push when ever the menu is at the bottom of the 6.1 screen, especially the keyboard.
    The rear look a bit short, can imrove more, maybe a more curvy then the current.
    The sport rim looks so girly with the flower shape.... Hibiscus?????

    -Value for money.
    - the music button on the steering is useful
    - fuel efficient driving in the city
    - good airconditioner
    - no body kit like the previous version
    - the headlamps on the previous version are better

Fuel Economy: 14.0 km/litre (7.1 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,500 km/month
    -Good composure at corner, stable at high speed up to 140km/h, comfortable cruising at speed below 100km/h,
    - reasonable FC at speed between 80-100km/h. managed to get 17km/L on long journey

    Best NVH in it's class - no rattling

    Bluetooth connectivity with Iphone is flawless

    Not the best looking interior
    No autowiper

xDrive35i (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 1 Year

    First off the xDrive 35i presents the cheapest entry point into the 6 cylinder engined BMW league. The 335i and 535i have now been discontinued by BMW Malaysia officially, making the X5 the only way you can get a non M series inline 6 engine. Driving this after living with a 4 cylinder BMW for the last few years, its a realisation how super smoo[...]
    Quality is not up to standard imo on the BMW. Sit in a Porsche Cayenne or heck even a Volvo XC90 and you won't find loose stuff. This one has a loose plastic cover that covers the anchor point of the middle row seat to the car, since the middle row can tumble forward to allow access to the back. The loose plastic is annoying as it creaks! On a c[...]

    1. Handling very good, even at 160km/h and yet still stable.
    2. Comfortable and fun to drive.
    3. Cornering high speed and yet the body roll is acceptable. Love this car so much!
    4. Engine sound is acceptable.
    5. Love Bosch ESP, Traction control is the most important thing when driving.
    6. With this price and spec, mana mau dapat??
    7. Fuel[...]
    1. QA and QC need a lot of improvement. Fixing door, glovebox may see some uneven gap. Don't like the engine cover spray printing and it feels like a cheap car.
    2. Left side reverse sensor on and off
    3. Knocking sound at back
    4. CVT sounds humming and annoying.. Proton.. please improved!!!!! cannot accept this..

    - Spacious, and a very comfortable highway cruiser. I cruise on NSE often and the ride is smooth and comfortable for a family of four. Moving from front to rear seats is easy with the middle corridor, even for a tall man like me.

    - Auto-cruise is stuck at maximum 108km/h (as per Japan standards) (2013 model)
    - No spare wheel (2013 CBU model)
    - Rear boot door is very difficult to open when parked back to back with another car/mpv.
    - Parking and maneuvering in shopping mall parking lots is difficult (although its pure skill, my wife can do it easily!)

    - Suspension seems loose compared to Myvi.
    - Underpowered when goes after 80km/h.
    - Aerodynamic is very bad, wind noise kick in after 120km/h.

Bought new, Owned for 1 Year
Fuel Economy: 10.0 km/litre (10.0 L/100 km), RON95
    - It's a very comfortable and fun to drive car for its price range.
    - Has a lot of gadgets with options to further upgrade (HU, sound system, seats, etc) in the market, which adds to the driving experience. Please check on warranty before you make any mods though. While there are stock parts, there are also those that might void the warranty.

    The first 2 are annoying, the rest are minor points I'm listing for those who might have concerns.
    - The vehicle horn is firm to the touch. It's possible to lightly tap it. You have to press in down and it will sound at full blast, so it's not possible to "gently" horn others.
    - I feel that the light sensor is a bit too sensitive. With the li[...]

    My wife bought the XV Sport spec primarily because she wanted a higher seating vehicle which is not too big as the regular C-RVs or CX-5s of the world. The fact that the big discount which comfortably covered the down-payment was a major factor in getting the XV Sport over the Mitsubishi ASX, which incidentally is much smaller in all aspects.

    The Kenwood HU has terrible radio reception. No idea why. Made worse by the steering wheel selector which is programmed for seeking FM frequency instead of switching preset radio stations, which is a stupid move by Subaru.
