ahh..no wonder i buy inspira instead of forte. no matter how powerful the auto gearbox and engine. my ride will always be manual, unless manual tyranny is obsolete. doesnt feel like driving a car, when using auto....like a lazy old man (just my own opinion).

1.8M? Nice buy there. More powerful then the 2.0CVT IMHO. not a big fan of CVT

last 3 days on my way back to penang from KL,
got this Red 1.8M inspira racing with white 2.0 GT.
Guess the LGT must have been jealous of the inspira lol,
i tried to follow behind. Damn the 1.8M was DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN fast ler.

the LGT was trailing behind. I couldnt keep up with the inspira on the plus highway + heavy traffic.
The LGT then was gone..i was still a few cars behind, even Golf Mk 6 kene tapao by the inspira.

im not sure if he modded the car or what, but it was damn fast. puts the LGT to shame

i would prefer inspira 1.8MT than 2.0, real man drive manual. hehe....

maybe Golf MK 6 dont step on the pedal kao2?
how fast lar can go here, mine just got speedtrap for a mere 110 speeds. not only malaysia need a good grade of petrol/diesel. also a better speed limit. how come highway with only 90 km/h still exits. its a dual lane demmit.

not that racing type, but...manual all the way for me. inspira is the only manual c-segment car right?
obvious choice for manual tyranny fetish like me

im pretty sure its about 230 km/h coz i was already doing 200 he was still wayyyyy faster

oh mai..inspira can go so fast...lol... seems like nice car...

but i'm lazy driver

inspira and lancer gt can reach 230km/h?

ive heard LGt can go 235..
inspira not sure..
but the one on the highway did exactly that..
not sure if its modded..

duh...coz it links to a city?? like in penang, it link from sg dua to juru leh...in between, got butterworth, autocity lagi...
if u drive fast, those ppl coming out of those lane ma let u bang them mati?!

Added on January 26, 2011, 1:04 ammanual is fun...i had drove manual cars for erm....like over 9 years?? sure is fun...
but there's something i think about...i can't drive manual cars FOREVER....it will obsolete...
yet, i m tired of keep changing gears and keep press clutch non stop at city..especially in KL and PG peak hour time..

Added on January 26, 2011, 1:07 amno, still use same engine. even avante 2011 also use same engine as current forte 1.6
the reason of not using GDI engine is bcoz of our fuel, the new GDI engine is not optimized for RON92/95 and 97 which is populated in entire malaysia.
even current engine for 1.6 Forte also 'try to survive' the current petrol in 95/97 grades. my car still jerks at 40km/h-43km/h even i tried so many different brands of petrols RON95 or 97...
juz 1 type i nv tried b4....Shell V-Power Racing type....wish i could get that petrol, when i in KL....

Added on January 26, 2011, 1:10 ami think the LGT also think...if he follow closely behind the inspira, speedtrap sure kena inspira only, not LGT itself...coz the speedtrap camera needs the cars spaces distance from each other like around 1meter, in order to shoot another photo of speedtrap...kinda smart thinking LGT driver...
yet, i think Inspira drove fast mayb coz got something urgent on....LGT tailgating is juz to escape speedtrap...MK6 dun even bother wan to win it...

xion, i said it SHOULD..
dont get me wrong..
sad its not used here.. the GDi engine damn cun ler

if u r not racing type, wat for u complain abt better spd limit?? u r no smarter than government. even at 110km/h, it's enuf 2 kill lots of ppl d...same goes with buses which runs at 90km/h...
but i do agree, malaysia seriously needs to get good grade of petrol/diesel....hopefully can get Euro5 or 6 type diesel and petrol, with RON99/1xx class, so can on par with the rest of the world...
if malaysia keeps on like that, i doubt they can import other cars, which requires RON99 above...

Added on January 26, 2011, 1:14 amagree. i love GDi engine as well...
yea, sry misunderstood
but if compare with GDi engine, i rather get the 2.4L Koup engine...

he was WAYYYY behind the inspira..even behind me..tried so damn hard to catch up.. the Golf also overtake like mad to catch up with the inspira ler..
i was driving alone so had no one to help record the event.

so,i guess it is not after inspira afterall.....

i disagree. its not speed that kills, why in germany #of accidents is low even when they have the autobahn?
Elsewehere where speed limits is higher, also the # of deaths are low?

i do believe for 1, that our highways are in a pretty bad shape, potholes, uneven surface, in rain sometimes got watter puddles in the middle of the road.
Not much space between the road and the central divider, small lanes, emergency lane also so narrow. These factors do play an important role.

2.4L engine? not thx. We live in malaysia, where road tax is ridiculously based on CC of the car + Fuel Efficiency is worst. so higher displacement isnt always better.

1.but unique....1st in SG and Malaysia....hehehehe
2.nope, i guess that's not...is malaysian mindset of driving still immature....that's y mat rempit here and there..brainless immature driving habits, which only ended up death or imprisonment...
motor riding as 'superman' styles.....motor riding 'handless' styles....motor riding 'squarting' styles...motor riding 'rear legs holds accelerator and control steers' styles....
and alot more...but these are the popular ones...

Added on January 26, 2011, 1:31 amso, in order for drivers to evade them from cutting in lanes dangerously....drivers will kena accident, might ended death for more ppl too...
the road itself is not the main cause here...juz remember that...that's juz a very minor issues....

I dun own a Inspira like u own a Forte la, so i'm not as lucky as u. No butt to hurt. Clearly in LYN since the beginning vote have been cast and the results very clear la. Really must call ppl stupid then only can accept more ppl like Inspira then your almighty uncle Forte? Ouch, the butt really hurts right?

+10
After a few more months lets see how many Inspiras and Fortes down the road.

belif me, our highways are comparable with autobahn if not better. there was 1 month i got quite unlucky the road was renovated for upgrade, the lane was so narrow it barely fit the width of a lorry. i think autobahn is popular only because it doesn't have speed limit on some route.

evo x manual 5 speed max speed hitting rev limiter on top gear hitting 230km/h.. that means lgt and inspira > evox omg

Wow. xion, u drive like that one arr? coming from the interconnection junction into highway straight go to the fast lane. no wonder malaysia got so many accident. i dunno what these kind of driver thinking. u should go into slow lane first, after gaining momentum and speed only go to the fast lane. need to be carefull when a silver forte around, it can suddenly cut into fast lane without warning.

Come have a visit at plus sg Besi - Bangi highway. its 90 and w/o link here or there like penang. somemore, its 3 lane.

Added on January 26, 2011, 9:00 amBelieve me, i just put the 90kmph example here. there's so much more 60kmph signboard at the upgraded road especially East peninsular (pahang,terengganu, kelantan). the roads are already upgraded with ample road shoulder and u see those 60kmph here and there frequently. Just put 1 speedtrap officer there. practically issueing summons to every vehicle passing thru except local motorcycle.

speedtrap officer need to be replace with permanent camera especially at hotspot that really2 result to accident if speeding. and signboard should clearly remind the driver to slow down.

90kmph limit and driving 100 - 110 is not much different. u wont even feel the different when driving forte/inspira. racing driver driving 110...what a joke. anybody can be F1 driver like that.
