  Consume 10KM / 1L before break in
  
  will hit 13KM / 1L after 20 000KM with light foot and empty boot + syn oil and 35psi all wheels 15 inch alloys only.
  
  OE tyres terrible ! Noiser than engine.
  
  Good handling in corners/braking/wet and hrad acceleration up to 4500 rpm. good power at that range. Low end power terrible ! u need rpm !
  
  Speed wonderful like euro cars. Stable ! fit 5 1/2 ppl in desprate cases. Still can sit a bit .... siao.
  
  was given a nickname by photographers for this car ... chiak beh liao (Chev-ro-let)

  I am comparing Ford Laser & Optra, both price are close except the FC. Currently I am driving Accent, the best FC is 13.8km/lit. Optra FC will be my concern no doubts i hv attract by the design. For long term and convervative calcuation, every full tank will less 120km (S$18 more?) Any other factors can support the purchase?
  
  thank you....

  Nissan Sunny selling point is the CHEAP price and what sales say "it is from Japan". This traditional model is also bigger than Nissan new Latio.
  
  I think StarAuto has jack up the price of Optra for too long. They really need to review against market competitors !
