I think so. But just that with 4 people in 1.3MT jazz, the car seems different feel on the road compared to less than 4 people in it.

Dun really like the difference in feel. Haha... Just that maybe gotta compromise on petrol and use lower gear lo.

Bro, why so Kaisu? Precheck.
My dad car in Malaysia, more then 18 years old Corona already,
I think more then 5 years never changes oil. Just top up.
Everyday the car work like horse. 1 year can easy hit 100k per year.

Nowdays Singapore car 10k oil changes, consider super Kaisu already.

Jazz is light and wheel base small.
Try not to driver over 150 km/h.

When behind bus, if u want overtake the bus, DON"T suddenly turn out,
sometime due to wind, the car will out of control.
This years, I saw 2 Kelisa, due to lost control when try to overtake bus. Just infornt of my eyes.

Last year, saw Mit I , when almost overtook the bus, i believe due to the wind come on the left, when the car 50% ahead of bus, suddenly the car out of control and hit to the right. Just like that.

And bus , sometime their speed is 120 km/h or above. Just take note.
