QUOTE(kadajawi @ Jul 24 2013, 05:34 PM) No, since there is for example a significant difference between a brand new Camry 2.0 and a brand new Kia K5, VW Passat, Ford Mondeo, ... or between a Vios and a Kia Rio/Peugeot 208/Ford Fiesta LX for example. @pomen_GTR: Not that I know of. The Model S is an all new car. The Roadster was Lotus based. whats the difference?which one better

QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Aug 20 2013, 09:06 AM) Anything except a Camry! The VW, Ford, Peugeot and K5 all have good safety ratings. The 2013 Optima K5 obtained higher frontal crash ratings by the NHTSA than even the mighty 2014 BMW 528i although both got the overall 5 star rating. On the IIHS test results, the 2013 Optima K5 is currently among only 25 vehicles worldwide who have received the Top Safety Pick (+) rating which even the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series and Mercedes E Class failed to get. The other Korean car which was rated Top Safety Pic (+) was the 2013 Hyundai Elantra. http://www.iihs.org/ratings/tsp_current.aspxanything but korean car. i even willing to take preve

QUOTE(zweimmk @ Aug 20 2013, 09:48 AM) Well, they have mouths to feed. And in this country, pissing off manufacturers means losing advertising revenue. Actually, when Paul Tan's site talked about the new Camry last year, they didn't have anything bad to say about the car. But immediately came out with an article about the importance of VSC, that is an indirectly effort on their part to criticize the Camry's lack of VSC and TRC. Too bad, they didn't talk about the lack of airbags in comparison to some of its other rivals though and the price of the car. But this isn't just limited to them alone, all other car motoring sites are the same. If it was a review overseas, you can expect the same Camry to be bashed beyond redemption. which camry lack vsc n trc?
