Drive carefully loh. Safety first smile.gif
Try 200km/h before but found out the road condition will make your car feel like a boat(if you know what I'm mean).

But i wonder why till today i dont see many 408's on the road. I see much more Forte, Elantra, Civic and Camry. The new Ford Focus is worse. So far i think ive only see about 5 since the launch. But im seeing more and more K5 on the road. But the biggest increase i think is VW. Quite a number of Polo and Golf on the roads now especially after the last promo.

Btw, i drive around KL and Ipoh quite alot covering about 3500km a month.

It's all about the numbers. Despite the good prices, Malaysians are still not as receptive as I thought they should be towards the French. But there's also Naza as part of the brands and that carries both KIA and Peugeot cars, so it's kind of confusing here.

For those doing Sierra Glow, please keep in mind that you need to constantly clay bar your car at least once a week to maintain the effect. If ure too lazy to do this, then dont waste your money on SG. And dont have too high hopes on SG. Its not a premium product and there's a reason why its the cheapest coating in the market. Even though the warranty is for 5 years but i doubt its gonna last half that duration. Mine is 8 mths only and the effect isnt as good compared to when i first did the coating.

I think J-Glaze might be a better product. I managed to nego for my friend's new VW Golf. Only RM 1,000 for the following:

1) J glaze for whole car
2) Rain away coating for all windows and windscreens
3) Coating for front headlights

2 years warranty for J Glaze and 1 yr for glass windows/windscreen coating.

Hi cybermaster98, You may have got the impression wrongly of using a clay bar after Sierra Glow on a weekly basis. Depend on your daily usage of your vehicle exposed to the environment and pollution. We only use a clay bar to remove road tar and death bugs. Otherwise it is normal our car surface will get a bit of roughness due to pollution and metal dust. Example while driving dirt with stick hard on the surface cause slight roughness and normal shampoo will not able to clean. We need to use a clay bar to remove it. Glassglow coating is to protect the paint from further oxidation. Therefore after wash will maintain the shine. Too frequent of waxing and polishing will have swirl marks, hologram on the surface and subsequent the original paint become thinner. Glassglow is the latest technology from Japan and we have put the chemical structure in our website. We are the cheapest but our Glassglow coating is much more superior in quality and workmanship better than others.

cybermaster98, can you contact me 0162170312 for appointment date. I will be happy to check and rectify your problem for you. Thank you. "Gong Xi Fai Chai"

considering kia has more mainstream model but the numbers are still way behind luxury makes like BMW & Benz...

funny thing is that the figure dont quite match up..
KIA sold a ship load of forte literally in 2011,
if i remember correctly, forte in 2011 sold at the rate of about 200 unit a month on average which give and take should be about 2500 unit for the year...
and this is just forte sales only... the picanto, sorento and all has not been included yet...

let me see if i can get the breakdown of the number sold by model....

Trying the power may not push the car to limit as I carry the whole family. But I try 180 with my old city before.
