Tentative OTR price for DS Line are as below:-

DS4 - (Dsign version) Auto - RM164,990.
DS4 - (Dsport version) Manual - RM170,990.
DS5 - Auto - RM195,990.

Let see....

If those prices from jacksonkua is correct, then they are after a niche type of buyer.

40k of many PREMIUM and Award winning stuff man, hence the price (read: "Both cars evoke expertise, style and technology inscribed with the DNA of innovation and distinction," said Naza Group joint group executive chairman SM Nasarudin SM Nasimuddin)

So I take it that you will either sell your 408 for the DS4/DS5 or buy it outright then? Award winning car is right up your alley isn't it? When can we hear the good news from you? brows.gif

Bro, I just took a glance on mine and its same as yours. So,which metal plate is added as suggested by their engineer?
Maybe u can highlight a circle on the photo?!
And sorry for my bad English,when u say folded up. I don't see any different on both the photos attached.

Saw bro AH* 168* blue colour at pkfz....a member here? U were having lunch at the Foodcourt!

not sure about the prices but you are right. they do not intend to sell many like peugeot. that's why only the ds range will be sold. nonetheless, they will still do better sales wise than the former franchise holder.

Bro you really know how to get me all fired up la. Ya I was eyeing the DS5 last year itself. As usual I stared my research on this car. Was very disappointed with what I found out. Sad to say the DS series,well known for it magic carpet ride, has lost that charm on this model. Engine not being EP6CTDM is also a disappointment. The design is absolutely eye catching, interior and exterior. The car is breathtakingly beautiful and unfortunately thats only skin deep! Under all that beauty lay somewhat harsh suspensions and rather unprecise steering according to reviews. For the suggested price, I expect a much smoother and comfortable ride. Don't know what went wrong with the steering. I have owned 17 cars (mostly contis) in the past. Volvo,Bimer, Audi,Ford,Crysler in that pack,all of em older series. 408t steering feel and feedback is well above all that I've owned. Citroen is under PSA, what went wrong!

Having said that the DS5 hybrid turbo diesel is a babe. That is a dream machine. That has completely different suspension system and many other great differences. Even if it comes to Malaysia it will only stay in my dreams, as the price will be outrageously out of reach!
