QUOTE(azbro @ May 23 2012, 10:15 AM) I don't much feel good about the conti handling....where got conti handling these days? You drive 200+km/h on Malaysia roads with bumps seems like not worth the effort to make a car so fast. when we talk about conti handling in such cases , we are comparing to same segment car at the same speed, for conti cars the faster you go the more stable it is even on bumpy roads (in my case and my car works this way) , but it all boils down to weight , tires , suspension etc. but of coz i cant tell if i've not driven it b4 , owned a 405 Gti b4 thou ... loved the suspension ... 408T looks appealing ...

QUOTE(icez @ May 24 2012, 09:31 AM) I wasn't really a fan of Pug's before but once I test drove the 308T (6 speeder), I was convinced that a turbo is the way to go! Since the 408T boots more power, I can only expect things to get better. My primary concerns now is if the build quality from our Kedah boys are good enough and if this car will stand the good ol' 2nd hand value test. If all this while driving NA , once u go turbo there will be no turning back ... i started off with a 405 Gti --> Toyota Liteace --> Proton LMST --> Pajero --> Putra --> E270 CDI All are NA except the turbo diesel , that's why if ever to get a new car , must be conti and "T-ed" Hopefully the QC and build quality is up to standard , resale value ... at least it's selling with a mid range price.
