Tested 1.6SX in PJ area specially uphills, rough round, traffic jam and etc.
All condition look fine for me bcoz I use to drive korea car - heavy body!
I just simply press hard b4 uphill and it perform well within 2 person inside car. I can use shiftonic to change the gear manually and it really work to maintain gear 2 until rpm to 4-5K and power is remain until I increase gear 3 later 4.
Overall, 1.6SX engine performance is acceptable but reaqlly do not know the FC. The test unit show 14l/100km and I believe it may coz by short distance test drive.
But still need more finding bcoz no change to test 2.0 model b4 final decision make.

well i read one of the comments on Paul tan; paul himself says that he had removed the line that 500 cars are CBU which is not true.

Naza had ask him to remove as that statement wasn't true.

I think they had mixed some CKD into CBU, how to define a CKD and CBU? any paperworks?

err,today i try to spot sumthing from the car to differentiate CBU or CKD..
finally, at the passenger door.. there's a plate engraved with a series of numbers..
not sure what number is that coz all words are in korean...

but stil this cant be the way v differentiate.. coz CKD onli assemble doors, tires and so forth..
no idea.. from me icon_question.gif

wow, just took a nap and got extra 2 pages..

err.. is that the power from julz? he just posted complaining warranty period is way too low and the nex day (today) got SA says can extend to 5 years? what's a coincidence..?

i rather pray hard that the car itself will not have any major or even minor problems so that i dont need to utilize warranty thingy at all...
thus, after sales service doesnt matter d..

agreed on this... but usually the most problem part of a car is not the engine but the gearbox.... as gearbox is the most complicated part & most expensive part..... so, if really the extended warranty cover the gearbox.... i think we should just engage it.... as a gearbox can cost you a BOMB.  sad.gif

now pray hard and trust me SA for getting the car by december....
seriously i got exhausted for following all the 'latest' news everyday..


PS, any1 hu gets a chance to play with the remote, press on the silver button c whether the silver part can be pulled out anot..
coz BMW's 1, the silver part is the key...
coz today my fren asked the SA, if car battery died, how?
then the SA just leave speechless...

yup, anyhow the final determination of starting the car is the button...
but i dun think this thing can be easily spoilt... somehow i trust korean car indeed has a REAL improvement..

more specific - center cap....
wheel cap is for those steel wheel, the fake looking cap....

if the rims localized, u can't just buy from KIA, as the size is totally diff...
unless the designer commonize it....

but still.. need to try my luck to get it..
the naza logo really spoils the look of the car..
