I just done driving a Camry 2.0g from klang to kuchai lama both ways via npe. All I can comment would be Camry is much sluggish compared with k5, handling is totally disastrous if cruising more than 70KM/h over curvy or corners over the npe stretch.

Noise level is pretty similar with k5, maybe a little lesser due to the 16" rim. Perhaps the passenger would feel a bit more comfort, but for me the driver feels a bit more jumpy over the uneven road.

One thing I really surprised is the FC, it was showing average of 12.1km/liter which close to 8.3liter/100km!  That I would say wow. Other than that, it was a poor driving experience compared with k5. Imho, accord 2.0 would also best Camry anytime.

I tested the FC on the Optima on highway drives a number of times. At 110kmph the instant FC is 9.1L/100km while at 160kmph, its 10.2L/100km. So it actually makes more economic sense to drive at 160kmph as the FC difference is only about 1 liter every 100km. So if ure driving from KL to Ipoh, driving at 160kmph would only consume RM3.50 more compared to driving at 110kmph but ull reach faster thus your extra 'expenditure' is nullified.

Any 1 wanna do Sierra glow ? Last time VW do group buy, got 5 or 10% discount.. Something like that ..

the website has not been updated with new CKD price...current price is still with CBU or not mentioned at all...

and yeah, i dont think they will drop so much for CKD unless lower specs or some features taken out..not kiasu, but judging from previous CKD units like passat tsi

Me, going... but when I get my car first lah... salesman promise definately in this month time. Count me in

Sound good. Plan to do so when I got my k5 by end of the month. so you can count me in.. 

Yup, count me in too.

I try to accelerate from 120km/h until 160km/h using gear 6 but cannot le dono why ? like not power only. Wander you all have same exp?

Why do u want WWX when you can wait 2 weeks more and get WXA?

but u use more fuel building up to that speed, and with that also, more frequent brake and accelerate to accommodate the traffic condition...in all, many parameters involved..

Got my car few days ago. Update on FC....
Drove from Melaka to JB...total distance 190 km...average speed 100-110 km/h with ECO mode most of the time. Consumed 14.74L of Ron95 (7.75L per 100 km), not bad.

Nice. The new Light Graphite Blue

Sigh, in 1 hour's time, no more K5 for me 

Go buy 1.

Go buy 1 and welcome to the club....

Btw.. Any one thought of installing captor (Security system with gps tracking?)

Thought of sandblasting my vehicle no. On all my window. Anyone here already done it? Suppose to be a deterrent to any potential thief since they cannot simply change our plate no and drive off.
