Agree... Wira 1.5 can reach 200km/h... but you will be holding the stearing for GOD DAMN DEAR LIFE.... with no ABS/VSA I dont know how the car can stop...

going fast is 1 thing... another is can you stop FAST... I want to live...

Test drive the car during raining time. I must say the car handling is good when comes to cornering and went through those wet road quite smoothly...

Hm i saw this car already in Ayer Keroh with MCD plate... ;d

ABS does not help shorten the breaking distance (aka stop fast), in fact it actually PROLONG the breaking distance when engaged.
your logic fails tremendously.

er not really watch this

now dont tell me your logic is better than the people behind the ABS manufacturer....

During panic dont tell me you can calmly control the brake ala (ABS-Aku Brake Sendiri method) trust me when panic everyone SLAM on their brake unless you tell me you are Topgear's STIG laa then I believe you people dont invent braking technology for nothing and Government (beside Malaysia) dont enforce mandatory ABS for nothing... think bro...

The truth is:

An ABS generally offers improved vehicle control and decreases stopping distances on dry and slippery surfaces for many drivers; however, on loose surfaces like gravel or snow-covered pavement, an ABS can significantly increase braking distance, although still improving vehicle control.

who one earth drive in Gravel road (oh kampong.. still got) and SNOW... Malaysia have snow...???

ABS in general reduce breaking distance on conventional brake lock... on the discussion scenario on Wira doing 200km/h and having wheel lock without ABS... the passenger is as good as jely...

SNOW... Malaysia have snow...???

The fake one in Genting. hehe..
The real one in Gunung Kinabalu.

If you are going to emergency brake at 200km/h, you are going to be as good as jelly with or without ABS. ABS is not miracle braking and it does not reduce braking that significantly. At 200km/h, you'd need a good distance to stop. We all can see supercars with super big brakes and most that crash out due to high speed emergency braking because big brakes and ABS does not equate to miracle braking.

You don't need gravel road to increase braking distance. Our country is famous for rain and water activates the ABS easier than gravel. A locked brake can dig through the water into the road while an ABS activated brake will not. Yes, you will retain steering with ABS but steering is useless if you have no place to steer to avoid the obstacle.

The most important thing to remember is that ABS allows you to control the vehicle but it is not miracle braking. You have to assume braking distance just like driving a car without ABS.

With ABS there is much of a control during emergency breaking at high speed (assume 200km/h) without ABS locking brake at 200!!! wow I think the car will go side ways and fly 5 storey high turtle...

My salute to engineers working on VSA (honda)/VSC (toyota).

That thing really kicks in when i think i've had it and waiting for crash. Saves me/my wallet few times oready.

since when this thread talks about ABS?

Which dealer here in PJ has a test drive unit? Quite curious about the car (love the looks). Would love to bring it on a test drive.

Pj dunno... But Seri Kembangan got test drive unit of their own, full with Mugen kits.

Hey guys, anyone of you know where i can get to see a show unit in penang. My dad wants to get one but he doesnt want to book till he sees the real car by person. I have been to two honda centres but none available. Anyone know when cvt is launching? The sales person told me june and three months waiting time. Omg.. That would be september -.- Is that true?

June is true... Waiting wise probably either, cause many placed booking for CVT... Totally ruined CRZ

Got a quik question, does anyone know where can I service my CRZ when it comes? Mine is on its way, thus thinking of the best SC for me to service my CRZ.
Thanks
Edit : i m in Klang Valley, any SCs within Selangor or KL is fine with me as long as they are good.

service intervals are eery 5k's KM.. service can be done at any honda 3S centers / Honda Service center.. theres few places... try check on their web site for locations..

How's is the road handling for the CRZ? izzit noisy? I made a mistake not test drive kia forte.. it's so noisy...

now CRZ.. and can;t test drive.. anyone can help out?

Forte noisy bro? coz i wanted to test drive the Forte too.. coz i was interested in the Forte Koup
