QUOTE(STC @ Sep 18 2011, 04:09 PM) I was thinking what a crazy idea  wondered how many cars you kissed.  I didn't wait long. The car had just arrived on the 10th and placed a booking on the same day. Car was ready on Wednesday but I collected on the 16th. Unig was right. And to Calvin, I am okay with the bass but the fidelity is below my expectations. Any difference in FC and performance after installing the active sub. Technically, I believe extra load to the electrical system may void the warranty. Solutions?iPod? ST Yours is quick, dude. I waited 1 week after loan was approved. The side step was scratched too, but I was too lazy to bother. Gonna install scuff plate later. Fiesta's shape still amazes me still and I usually try to follow them closely to check it out. Too bad its rear seats are useless. |

@wroof
can you let us know which city are you in ?
I shall try to compile a mileage list to check how fuel efficiency is insight able to perform.
but the most important thing is on your right foot to press and depress the accelerator.
for Penang Island - driving is around 500 - 600KM per tank ( 31 Liter once warning fuel light up )

@wroof
i leave to KL insights driver to answer your questions. If below 2000 should be giving a good mileage...
good driving habit is less honk, give way, no need brake so hard or press the accelerator so hard. There is no reference on right time to depress the accelerator, so follow your timing and it will be alrite.

Selling Point of insight is not for the fuel save, Prius also can save fuel what..
Normal speed 80-100km/h . Rpm in 80KM just 1500rpm... me slow slow one.

Welcome to da club...
There is no purple light... only Blue i'm afraid..
If you see the forum pictures, it is camera color capture issue...
maybe next Penang TT you can check it out and compare...

Which part of KL do you commute to and fro? I am only getting 18km/l. 75% Freeway and 25% crawling. Like real slow type of crawl. I do sprint when I feel like it. |

Unig was right. ST Man, that's so fast! I mean, relatively faster than we all the earlier owner We waited like 2-6months to get our rides... hehe... and i gotta say, for the 1st tank, ur FC is very good! Even after 8000+km mileage, I am struggling to maintain good FC... always got spoilt by the traffic along Federal Hway... haha  |
