QUOTE(EmomLee @ Apr 9 2013, 03:21 PM) bro bugg....i bought the december 2012 stock from kia glenmarie...originally booked for the white but in the end...after settled with loan approval and every other things...white color is no longer available and left with silver...can proceed with white color from current 2013 stock but hafta add another 4k...so i just hafta make do with silver from 2012 model....and changing to any other color at a friend's workshop will only cost me max 2k.... Original colour is the best looking of a car, after you re spray it, the effect might look different, somore you need to gone through inspection due to colour changing. You didn't save much on it but waste your time and risk your car |

QUOTE(jootat @ Apr 9 2013, 03:50 PM) How about the RV? Will the new buyer know that your car has been resprayed before? They might think that it will be caused by accident and u decided to change your color after that? It depend on the skill of the workshop, that's why not worth to risk the original paint. Settle down with silver or get 2013 white~ |

Some people would prefer look over the performance. K5 is too much good looking compare to 408T

QUOTE(SKYjack @ Aug 8 2013, 08:21 PM) Looks is in the eyes of the beholder. To me it is good looking. However I can't tolerate harsh,rough and crude engine. Simply saidK5, good looking but underpowered, 408T got some power, but darn looking, its width is not enough to make it as a good looking car, its rear is too small as Well But both car are diff seg vehicle |

QUOTE(jootat @ Aug 13 2013, 11:49 AM) I thought part of the harsh sound is due to the GDI engine (Gas Direct Inject) That's what i understand from reading up ... lol ... It only has that tiger roar sound when you press the pedal hard while overtaking. Usually, it's quite ok one wor ... Din noticed any noise. It harsh due to few reasons, the weight of the car, common sence D seg vehicle need >2.0 engine, other wise it would feel very hard to pull the car. Someone pls correct me if i am wrong ... If you want a quicker car, turbo needed. After try turbo, you would throw NA, after try diesel, you would throw turbo. This all because of torque game, want a high speed car go get a v6 turbo. People would say say NA is enough for a car, for me, yea 2.0 is enough for a C seg car. |

QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Aug 13 2013, 04:25 PM) Agreed 100%. I dont see any logic in Kia choosing to put a 2.0 NA engine in a car as heavy as the K5. So bila mau beli torque car? Mayb European car would suit you, mostly with torque, before this I nearly bought mazda6, yea that car is super good looking, but its torque setting disappoint me, 2.5 meant to be faster respone, not to save petrolThat's the reason why 408t like to speed people.lol For my opinion, if the 1.6 turbo throw,under hood of,K5, it would be just nice |
