Golf GTI on the other hand is a monster... not easy to control cos the acceleration is like crazy... TSI is just nice, power is there when you need it, not too much like the GTI... and surprisingly quite comfortable thumbup.gif

Trust me man, after driving the TSI around, you will lust for the GTI's power.

what's the r3 bush for? is it a nice to have upgrade or ?

Added on September 2, 2011, 3:18 pm
got your new ride yet bro?
*
The S3 bush is to make the car not too bouncy especially after you take a hard corner. Good upgrade for TSI's. Not that expensive.

New car still waiting at the dealer because my buyer side having some issues and then now the long break so the banks are taking a little longer to get back to him .

Currently at the Wearnes Service Center in Sg. Besi, saw the aluminium pedals there at RM900+ and the stainless steel exhaust tips at RM700+.

I say if you don't want to be poisoned don't join the forums. but i find the forum quite scattered out...

Actually by joining the forums you get to learn more about the cars as well. There are those who will stick by stock and can even do a lap around Sepang at 2min 48s on a purely stock car. Trust me, broleo will protect you from poison. rclxms.gif

Haha, I tot tat the ckd mid size sedan passat is going to b priced at arnd 180,190k region, so for a full size phaeton  maybe arnd 280,290k region since the cbu PCC is 260k.

just my guess,cheers.
*
The Phaeton is definitely not priced at RM280k, 100% sure. Why?

In Singapore, Golf GTI is SGD$190k, Golf R is SGD$204k, the Phaeton there is SGD$310k, thats the price range of the S class Mercedes.

hmmm but what are the specs of this phaeton? outlook wise, personally thinks that passat cc looks much better? =.=
*
Its a totally different class, its like comparing a BMW 3 series or a Merc C class with the BMW 7 series and Merc S class. Then again, the Phaeton is not meant to compete really against those marques' category wink.gif

erm, Golf GTI selling for rm210k here, its $190k in sg, so its 0.9 ratio of our 210k.

taking the price of phaeton in sg, and multiply with 1.1 ratio, it turns out to be rm341k. so u're saying the price should be around that region for a cbu unit ?  or approaching rm500k price tag as i think the base line model of S class selling arnd $350k in sg.

GTI  $190k -> RM210k
S300 $350k -> RM650k  rclxub.gif

Different car segments have different tax brackets here, hence the big hoo haa with the recent price increase of the Passat CC when our beloved kastam decided to increase the tax bracket for the CC hence their new revised pricing.

DANG... was driving this morning and stopped during a traffic jam. Notice that there is smoke coming out from the bonnet! Check the radiator temp (90C) and oil temp at (95C).... and then found out some funny noise from the aircond...

Tested with the bonnet open, without aircond - no smoke. With aircond on, the smokes starts coming out.

Sigh.. sending it to VW to rectify! just 1.5 months old! Anyone did suffer from the same problem before??
*
Ouch I feel for you bro, that sounds quite dangerous. So far yours seems to be the first problem with the smoke. I know another guy who had a bad smell with the aircon instead but no smoke.

Arghh im really tempted to buy the GTI SE but the next available shipment is March next year. Called Wearnes Bangsar and they only have the 2010 models with RM16k discount.

What do guys think, the GTI SE or the 2010 would do just fine. Worth the wait if i were to get the SE?
*
Get the SE man, the sunroof is the bomb! Even with the RM16k saved, you can't mod a 2010 GTI to have the sunroof tongue.gif

Kakaka, last week i took my polo and noticed why the reverse light is only 1 side lol.

So gave a call to my SA and he told me its european regulation that all car must be equipped with rear foglights which appear to be fitted in the other reverse light biggrin.gif

So its all euro based biggrin.gif
*
I think your SA is trying to bullshit you, all the Rocs have two reverse lights.
