Congraz bro ! Hope that you can get your car soon

As the roof fully covered by glass, is it annoying during heavy rain compare to normal roof? Just wanna know the differences...

well, for me i felt that it is better than aluminium roof, lesser noise compare with my previous proton and or my friend civid, not sre how was it if compare with the similar segment car, any taiko can comment?

Very simple to identify which one is annoying..imagine water hit milo tin wat is the sounds like? Kong kong sound rite, then wat is the sound like when water hit the glass? Click click sounds rite

It is non comparable with milo tin to aluminium and glass to glass roof even though it seems quite similar ...
It also depends on the thickness of the material itself and the insulation underneath it.

compare civic fd2 and k5, definitely K5 roof sounds more solid than civic

compare accord 2.0 and k5 2.0 which one is faster?

Added on October 23, 2012, 6:18 pmmy friend said his accord 2.0 powerful than k5 2.0 but i dun really believe cos in the brochures already stated k5 got more PS and torque.

accord 2.0: 156 PS , 189 torque

k5 2.0 : 165 PS , 198 torque

how can accord be more powerful

After all, AES is more powerful now ...

Any better offer? Currently a SA give rm2000 discount...

K5 is not really a performance car if you are looking for a performance car. Just to be honest to you.

iSk! that means my friend not lying to me accord got more power on the road...

aisey shame on me have doubt

bro, may i ask you what is the speed limit that you're looking at? i mean do u drive with top speed all time? as for me, i just tried once on my k5 top speed and it give me around 195 km/h, and fyi, that wasnt the limit yet, i has no balls to stick the pedal to the floor..

but i havent hav any chance to try/see/watch drag race between: k5 2.0 vs sonata 2.0 vs camry 2.0 vs accord 2.0 ..and im looking forwards to see the result, if the result show the difference gab below 1-2sec, i wont say it doesnt make any difference for me, this is D-segment ride, if looking for sporty performance, i wont got for AMG/BMW/AUDI which is outta topic here.

if the performance wasnt an concern, than should compare with the:

1. Pricing
2. Package -internally and externally
3. Safety features
4. confortability
5. design and look
6. accessory

thats my 2cent

itu 2 kereta kasi masuk stesen timbang JPJ, once dpt weight for both then u calc...
dun calc weight for body only, calc include rim + tire too...

no not about the top speed. how fast can u go with the AES camera all around nowadays

about pick up which is better?

Added on October 24, 2012, 3:55 pmwell actually im not a fast driver anyway. and not looking for performance car but as long as the car dun have the underpowered feeling that's fine with me.

maybe the best thing is to test drive both cars then only can compare everything rite?

but thanxs anyway for some replies

Yeah.. I agree with you

About the original 18" nexen tyres, anyone here do the switching as per the user manual ( which involved to have the spare tyre to be used ) ?
Normally at what kilometers we need to do that ?

yeah, i agree....u cant compare brochure spec with actual driving. There are many parameters that still will influence the pick up or top speed. Car weight, gearbox ratio, power delivery of the engine (torq/hp over rpm graph) and few more.

if u want powerful d-segment car, u need to look at over 2.0ltr engine, or turbocharged/supercharged cars. K5 and camry and akod 2.0 alike are meant for normal driving power kinda feel, not those sprint run cars.

I didn't switch the spare. As per manual, I cross the back to the front. The front tyres parallel to the back.

Any members wrote attached article...???
