TS remember, slow car is never a good handling car.

If you can accept slow but good handling. Local p1 car it is.

Otherwise, take 308thp

Buying Proton is a downgrade regardless of what of CC! And dont try to associate lancer with inspira. Just like china iphone with apple iphone. U mean everything else is MITSU? U wan me post campro picture?..There is no spirited driving in this car as vios can oso taopao inspira as claim by an inspira owner.

satria also can tabao evo ma....manatau ppl mod kau kau already

seriously forte not for spirited driving but a good commuter..n from honda city to forte is like downgrading..just like if u buy proton..n since u mention fd is already in ur home..the last option for a branded japanese is altis..lancer is like inspira but honestly lancer is much better handling in stock compare to inspira..looks good too but inspira spoilt the party!

308t is just nice..power is good..good tech..sharing the same engine wit mini's..people bad mouth about this car none other than becos of NAZA..period..

Those old impreza n evos are serious car..within ur budget an its practical too..
*
there's a 30k to 40k gap biggrin.gif

like i can tell you VW Golf Tsi is way better than 308THP from reliability to brand image, but there is also a 30k to 40k gap biggrin.gif

or like golf to scirrocco.

TS Need to fix a budget and maintenance fee first.

evos and Sti are great, but maintenance.....i think need Ron97 too.

Those evos n imprezas can run wit 95..proven..n too pump 97 all the time to this machine also not a problem for the owner..people who cant afford the car thinks differently..

*
i dun think TS ready to spend so much on cars like Evos and STis.

stop using those can afford or cannot afford kind of mentality.

are you saying TS cannot afford evos and Stis?

U will know the difference if u drive both car n tackle the same corner wit the same pace..

Inspira suspension softer than lancer..

you are right.

stock suspension for inspira costs about rm500 full set vs rm2000 full set for lancer biggrin.gif

no. Its a hybrid and actually the power produced by the IMA engine is equivalent to a 1.8L unit. Freaking quick accel thanks to the electric motors that produces ample torque starting from 1,000rpm. It only loses out at top speed due to the lack of hp.

In comparison;

the CRZ makes 126hp @ 6000rpm and 224Nm @ 4800rpm petrol engine and IMA combined, versus the city 115hp @ 6,600 rpm and 145 Nm @ 4,800rpm.

sorry to burst your bubble.

Maximum Torque (Nm @ rpm): 174Nm @ 1000-1500rpm (CRZ Manual). Maximum Torque (Nm @ rpm): 167Nm @ 1000-1500rpm (CRZ CVT Auto) .
honda.co.nz › New Cars › CRZ

but you are right, its near to 1.8liter torque.

mind i suggest navara?if u are into pick up(i bet u not though,but i'm recent convert from small sedan to this pick-up)
sure look bossy driving it,current offering has 174hp and 400nm of torque but upcoming 190hp version and 450nm of torque from the mid life facelift version surely give u enough spirited drive
not that hard on fuel either,being common rail intercooler turbo diesel,and ppl in their little car or mat rempit won't even dare to kacau you,move out of their lane quickly

pickup truck very worth.

because pickup truck is not taxed !! biggrin.gif or taxed at minimum rate compared to passenger car

I'm not sure how a Vios and Myvi can achieve super top speeds...I tried my 2003 Vios and yes, it goes to 185km/h on the meter...but the GPS registered only 170km/h.....even at real 110kmh the Vios meter is already 115km/h...stock tires.
