there's plenty of torque in the 1.4 and if that is not enough there's always apr, mtm s1 etc smile.gif
but of course you'd be sacrificing some driving comfort for the bling factor!
FC is dependent on how heavy is your right foot rolleyes.gif
in SG the 18" MTMs are SGD2900 and the 18" Caractere are SGD3000... if I can get it cheaper here in MY I'll get it changed locally but everything in MY is usually more $$$$$ sweat.gif

QUOTE(sonyman @ Sep 9 2010, 02:17 PM)
im about 30 now. if i buy one fiesta. loan 5 years i be 36. Then i change to polo and loan again 5 years or less. i be 38... By the time i get a grab of the golf. i be 40... hahaha... but i was thinking of skipping the fiesta and go for the polo straight. Cause i feel the golf is a bit too expensive for its size. But then again 90% of the time i drive alone what the heck i want a big car for. no one sits at the back. Thats is why now i feel my 9 year old waja is a little too big. Sluggish, and fuel consuming.

So i was looking at fiesta seriously before it got launch. Then i went to go molest it the other day. finding the buttons plastic are not much better than any other japanese car. I regret to say this that the vios fit and finish is very much better than the fiesta. Although vios is just a transport that brings you to point a and b in a cheap way. Only suitable for people who couldn't care less and no passion about owning a car... don't mind me... its the way i think... honda is too expensive in every way. And Mazda is not very much better. So its down to keeping my old waja and get it repaired and use it for another good 5 to 6 years then i go all the way to VW dream land. But by then i be 5 to 6 years unhappy and missing the fun in my coming to midlife years.
i agree on that bro thumbup.gif

Mine got fr RHB 3.1% le ..    any other freebies they throw in ?

congrats and welcome bro

QUOTE(Yan @ Sep 13 2010, 11:18 PM)
anybody interested in my new 1.4TSI 16" rims + 4 tyres ?
*
yeah what tyres and rims are you getting? too bad VW didn't offer this 17" rims. cost cutting apparently. these 17" is better than the 16"

LOL, i have the same idea as well! Was thinking of getting those Mk6 GTI fellas rims when they trade up. Really like the 17" GTI rims!

17" GTI rims(denver) is nice, but the 18" detroits on MK5 GTI SE is even better. the color is slightly different. inside of it is black and the rims are gun metal color

any car also will become slower (power will still stay the same) if you upgrade to bigger rims. but i think still acceptable. this 1.4TSI is not even the slowest engine in golf range

I used to think that so until I saw the 17" dual tone rims. Those are the ones I want to get. The 18" detroits are nice but I think I will feel the pinch a bit more especially when looking to change the tyres especially since I travel more than 100km a day.

finally, i m back to bolehland... went to the showunit near penchala... only manage to test drive the Golf 1.4 TSI along Penchala link and den U-turn..

got confused with the wiper and signal indicator, terbalik with japanese cars doh.gif

I used to just cruising with my own car, but the sales gal ask me just tekan aje with the Golf.. tongue.gif

impressive pickup even before 2000 rpm, reach 100km/h in no time... cabin is quiet... nice handling

I would prefer it comes with leather seats, more classy and luxury..

overall... very good car... thumbup.gif

My first preference is the United Grey but because I drive on the highway 80% of the time, my current car has plenty of stone chips at the bumper and the hood so I know that United Grey, Tornado Red and Black will be very obvious especially on the stone chips.
Black is nice, but without the Red trim like how the GTI has it, it doesn't stand out as much. I think Silver is a little too common but I chose the white tongue.gif

Isn't white color, the stone chips are more obvious?

17" is a good compromise between $$$/comfort if they offer that with stock but unfortunately they don't do that with the 1.4, so it's going to be a private deal unless you want to pay $$$$$ for the new OEM 17" detriots from vw, i'm sure there are some gti owners who are looking at selling their denvers/detriots if you look around rolleyes.gif

Really? I thought because of the white undercoat, then white on white shouldn't be that obvious...
