QUOTE(antu_susu @ Oct 18 2012, 08:37 AM) Focus is C-segment while optima k5 is D-segment.. so in term of space the K5 is much bigger... yea the only thing i like on optima is on the interior space is much bigger coz it's d segment car and also the lookbut if me, i'll choose the focus. it's much more refined and the engineering is matured.  and my current car is also and c-segment |

QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Oct 18 2012, 10:02 PM) Nobody knows. What we have now are new generation Kia's. Many things have been improved. We can't judge the cars we have today using the standards employed before. So this is a question that nobody will be able to answer. not high speed drivesAdded on October 18, 2012, 10:03 pm Why is cornering stability important for you? Are you planning high speed drives? just that when i rush i tend to seldom pressing the brake instead just cruising by controling the car using stering and gas paddle |

i had just went test drive both the car
for ford focus i love the handling stability especially in cornering but space too small for me for k5 space is good but handing not as good as focus currently i'm driving nissan sentra b14 which i felt the space is just fairly enough |
