i guess taiko K5White meant given all the spec, why bother the least important?

i have the same thinking, glove box flimsy feel is just a very very minor issue. It might make u feel less 'shiok' with that price tag with a flimsy glovebox, but what the heck......other spec u don't even get at that price tag! And my car is coming this week!!! yeah!

kawan, mine is PG too, sama sama like u. LG belum ada mah....and i prefer PG. Seen the LG color in Korea for the hybrid model......not my cup of tea wo....

wahahaha.....so kancheong meh? play game pun mau to turn on the infinity system?

don't take those sparco replice or other branded replica one, then will be cheaper lo. come come klang.....i'm very nearby to those tyre shops but never check the price yet as I not yet get my kereta .

don't la play angry bird in the car....play a bit kancheong punye game la.....angry bird no need such sound system...kekeke

Guys, just wanna check on the security tinting film. Do u think it is sufficient to only stick on 3mil film on the side windows?

One of my friend whom is in tinting business told me not to use any film more than 4mil as it potentially causing mechanism jam over the power window after few years, especially if u use a lot of power window. Any input here based on experience?

same like what others mentioned before, i just insured my windscreen/windows/sunroof on the normal standard 15% insurance premium from the total sum insured. In my case, i paid rm450 for rm3k coverage.

wa lazy to wait, ended up taken WWQ6xxx. but then still the car need to wait till next week baru keluar due to slow processing itu cukai....... no K5 for me this weekend. No rim hunting liao this weekend with bro irangan.....

Guys,
Do u think it is necessary to install alarm?

And I was considering the front sensor too as the car is more for my wife. Any input of opinion?

Not all are skillful and have tow truck. At least the alarm will keep those being chase away. This is just a mentality thingy....depends on how u value the existence of alarm.

yeh yeh yeh....baru dapat my baby K5 in PG color which has been sitting in the HQ for quite few days. The car wait me to get them, not i waiting for the car....hahaha paiseh.....

generally, u can't expect a 2.0 car without turbo to have a great acceleration. For me, the car is good enough as I have set my expectation to be within the normal D segment range. Btw, my car is pretty new clocking 400km only and many says it would be better after 1st service at 1000km.

Well, make it simpler if u have tested a similar 2.0 category of D segment:
- camry 2.0 is much less responsive
- about the same like accord 2.0, K5 plus point is you can play around with the paddle shift to make it much more responsive
- heavy footed during normal driving will cause a quick gear change to low and causing sudden high rev. Best play with paddle shift when overtaking to avoid this happening.
- don't ever compare with passat, a4, mondeo, 508 which all carrying a turbo. You are then comparing apple and durian.

hey all the K5 owner!

to those whom changed the nexen tyres, mind to share share the best offer you got for trade-in nexen and the tyre changed? I will do my tyre hunting tomorrow in Klang (am a Klang guy btw)....lets do some comparison.

i find it pretty noisy with mine at 240 pressure, especially after my ride yesterday in NKVE with heavy rain......not really good with wet condition too.

Arigato!

Bro, kasi update the outcome oh. Considering also......

Mine is a PG color, arigato

Sama sama kawan, WWQ color PG. cheers

Yuppie, that is confirmed it does come with buzzer if not released

Kia charging some rm150 for the wheel balancing alignment.

Eco mode only make sense during city drive. With or without Eco mode I guess somehow not making much difference on the fc. Twice I fill up rm120 and manage only 600km with 80% city drive.

Somehow I felt smoother drive with the Eco mode. It prevent sudden jerk when heavy footed and over rev. U can say more uncle style but it helps for me coz 50% time I'm carrying my small boy with me.

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.
