  hi everyone, would like to seek anyone's review or comments on the mazda 121 soft-top or hard-top. i looking at its cuteness and cheap price tag.
  wonder the soft top is really useful or is a potential big problem due to quality...

  might as well get a kelisa right? new car, new engine, new everything. as for whether its reliable, i dunno. but surely better den a 13+ yr old car for which the maintenance is surely sky high.

  Well, if you're getting cars with soft top / removable roof,
  check that it does not leak when raining or washing.
  Common with such cars when old.
  Also, soft roof vulnerable to being cut open by vandals.
  
  My 2 cents

  I sat once in my friend soft top 121, the car was like splitting apart when travelling at 80km/h on expressway.. not very stable and keep vibrating.. and the sound was so noisy... the soft top look grey(old) instead of black due to aging... leakage may be a problem oso.. this is my personal experience on 121.... maybe other are not so bad lah..

  i imagine it should be this bad. cos its not metal, so cant expect the soft top to last so long and still be in good condition. consider the hard top 121s lor?
