still find it difficult to get pass the fact it cost 14K more than the Forte for a lesser engine displacement, less gadgets

and drives like a toy and feels floaty. and significant tire noise.

someone commented it'll actually tighten the steering above 90KM/H, really wonder how much? and does it improve on stability?

but i really like the design.... feels like really paying 112K for the design cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

During test drive.. I do try to nego a u turn ~50 to 60kmh I guess... Felt the vsm is in action n counter steer a bit. Everyday I went home n there is a straight road.. I'm driving 90 n the steering doesn't feel light at all..

My previous ride is gen2 with stiff suspension.. cornering is damn good. For elantra... I felt there's a slight understeer on the same corner I attack with my gen2.overall I still able to adapt on my elantra..

Just my 2 cent!

It was true that as the car speeds, the steering will gain weight as according to SA, so call safety feature wor.

I dont usually drive fast, even my mum complain me drive slow sometimes.

My highest record with my Honda City last time was just 150km/h and only happen twice

Ya.. driving in KL is a killer.. Ipoh still OK for me.. but it's time to settle for a more comfort driving style.. switching from gen2 to elantra is like from hell to heaven for me.. all the harsh/stiff ride and noise is gone.. now driving in a more relax manner.. biggrin.gif

Alot? hmm.gif based on what number my friend? This topic?

By all means we only few fellas posting. I believe there way more Elantra owner on the road that's not in this forum.
How often you speed beyond the speed limit? Not a problem here. Floaty? Don't think so wor. Cause I'm a fat ass.
How many same class car give you superb stock tyre? I don't think so too... So no problem right brows.gif

Don't get us wrong, we are discussing and exchange feedback, most of the owner love their rides. A lease we get no serious malfunction even on test units whistling.gif
