Just collected the car last week... and used it extensively during the last long weekend, and only one word to describe this car "comfortable' :-)

Was hunting for a new car to replace my 8 yrs old ride, went around test drive and monitoring the price. Sylphy was not n my radar at all until it drop the price to 67k. And I decide to take a look, and it's love at first sight, my whole family loves it as well.. the leg room is so hugh, the car does not look that big but once you get in you really cannot tell how they have so much space inside this car and the comfort leather seat.. wow. I can say it's much more comfortable and luxurios than some entry lever BMW and Merc.

What I like
1) The Luxury interior feel and comfortable leather seat
2) I love the touch of the steering wheel, very nice leather
3) quiet and easy cruising, the first time I drive I cruise up to 120km without realising as so stable you can't feel the speed at all!
4) The facelifted central console, looks very nice at night with the orange lighting
5) Handling of the car is easy
6) very big boot

and of course, the spaciousness of the car!

What I do not like
1) a bit under power, a few times I do not have confident to change lane or overtake at all while on highway

2) the reverse sensor given to me is just too loud and not indicative

Review
Pros & cons are listed. Overall i'm happy with the car. 1 month ownership & i'm already thinking of upgrading the car into a near perfect driving experience, by adding the impul mods, ultra bars & a hurricane filter!

What I like
Space. I still can't figure out how they can crave the interior space out despite the narrow width of the car! Luxury. Yes, this car gives you the entry level of just what luxury feel is all about before you upgrade to a bmw or benz or audi. Super sofa seats & look good too! Wheelbase. At 2700mm, the cruising feel is good, stable & solid. Leg room in all is simply amazing! Shape. Yes, it looks plain at first but the more i admire it the more it grows in me. Stand along the side of the car & look again, it's sleek & long wheelbase stance.

What I do not like
Engine. It's really on the weak side, there seems to be a 'flat spot' @ 2 - 2.3k rpm where it just don't wanna get out of this comfort zone into higher rpm! It sounds rough too. Cruising @ 100km/h & above the mid range is strong though. The suspension is too soft for comfort, often the exhaust rubbing against the kerb if you're on full load (beware!) Steering. Really dead feel, sometimes you can't feel the road when doing a 80km/h & above fast cornering.

Just got my car last week, driven around a few places, handles like a dream, engine is very quiet, outside noise intrusion is almost zero %. Love the spaciousness of the car as well as the stylish interior. Its a budget beauty.

Not many <1.6 cars comes with power side mirrors and its a ease to operate the mirrors without having to go manual. Aircon is powerful to cool cabin rapidly. in terms of features, definately a better buy then Toyota.

As others have mentioned about the 4AT knocking upon changing to 2nd gear, its not true, there is no knocking and you don't even know when the car changes gear till you look at the RPM gauge, its that damn smooth unless you got a lead foot.

What I like
Everything about the car, Nissan has outdone Toyota.

What I do not like
Can't complain as I bought a 1.5 as had to wait 3 mths for 2.0 but when you weigh all the features the car comes with, you just have to turn a blind eye to the "lack of power theory"

Review
Looks like old Cefiro. Power steering is too assisted, resulting in no road feel and consequently, poor drive experience, especially coupled with poor power to weight ratio for the 1.5L model. Significant body roll when cornering. Standard 15inch rims looks too small for this car and tires are squeaky when cornering. 16 inch rims/tires would be minimum for a balanced look.

What I do not like
Cefiro wanna be dated look. Maybe suitable for those who dream to own a Cefiro, which by the way, has already been updated to Teana. Engine is too small to power the body which is significantly larger and heavier than the previous model. Keyless entry system looks cheap. Interior trim looks & feels cheap. For value & class, go for the Honda Civic.

Review
One look is a mini Cefiro face. Underpowered for the chassis and hence, poor fuel consumption. Steering is very light, leaving poor feel of road. Interior is fair with pretty decent leather seats but cheap looking wood trim.

What I do not like
Underpowered, high fuel consumption for class & lack of road feel. Feels like a Korean car.

Review
Feels like a mini towkay driving this car. Classy yet affordable.
Best value for a car of this class.

What I like
The interior size. Extreme comfort for rear passengers.
Wood grain finishings adds a touch of class.
Looks grand on the outside, exterior styling is soothing to the eyes. Huge ride but not obnoxious.

What I do not like
Heavy body which results in not so desirable FC as compared to my previous ride. Sylphy 1.5's average FC is about 11-12km/l.

I guess I have to change my mentality. This car is in a different league as compared to my previous Vios.

Review
Bigger car in it class with good looking, lot of features & spacious interior. The f/c was great too. I have changed to 16' rim & managed to get 11 to 12 km/L

What I like
Spacious interior
Mini Cefiro look
Keyless entry & engine ignition

What I do not like
lack of power

Review
Do not look at the Sylphy as an old mother's car. It is actually a car worth driving it has perfect transmmisson and of course great interior, for such price you can't go wrong I own one and it was brilliant! You can get 13km/l great for a car like this... add on the body kit with cecil blue that would also be nice

Great family car strictly not for those who love to modify or race!

A Sylphy needs to be loved also by you people.

What I like
Great interior
Very smooth gear box
Reliable engine
Great fuel consumption
Beautiful styling
Great refinement!

What I do not like
Nothing at all really
