Peewee Neutral Newbie October 24, 2004 Share October 24, 2004 Since the price of Colt Sports is almost the same here, which is better in terms of handling? Heard of the stiff and rather high suspension in the YRV, wonder if Colt is better off. But for 70k, can have a chance of driving a tc car......1.5 N.A. vs 1.3 TC ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLord 1st Gear October 24, 2004 Share October 24, 2004 I have driven both before... Honestly... I will advise you to go for the Colt. Reasons? 1) YRV Turbo will incur higher insurance premiums. 2) Colt has better interior and looks better outside as well. 3) 1.3L Turbo vs 1.5L MIVEC? I would say 1.5L MIVEC is a more responsive drive! 1.3L Turbo is good for sprinting but overall the Colt drives better than YRV Turbo and I don't think it will lose out to the YRV Turbo much in 100m sprints! 4) Colt is more stable during cornering, YRV Turbo needs abit more work to maximize it's capabilities. 5) Colt has more "hidden" compartments and gadgets. 6) I dig the two-tone car seats of Colt! 7) Colt has more options, rally, sports, deluxe.. What you need, they'll have it! 8) This one feature that Colt loses out to the YRV Turbo... That moon roof! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkLord 1st Gear October 24, 2004 Share October 24, 2004 Oh yah, I think the YRV Turbo doesn't have airbags nor ABS. Front dics brakes and rear drum brakes. Not really the best specs for a Turbo-charged car. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peewee Neutral Newbie October 25, 2004 Author Share October 25, 2004 Agree very much with what u have analyzed also, love the colt interior very much, very cosy. Seems like the only good thing about the YRV is becos it's the cheapest turbo available in the market and that's about it. As for moon roof, the ralliart model also have mah. So gian the colt now, especially just feel feel touch touch the car at causeway point over the weekend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not why call it a Daihatsu? You don't know Toyota's style meh? Mini Cars called Daihatsu, Luxury cars called Lexus. In Japan, Altis is known as Daihatsu Altis.
