QUOTE(lowpro @ Jul 2 2014, 05:56 PM) 210? How's that even possible. I'm asking about top speed because best I'm able to hit is 170. It sort of maxes out at that point even though there's still RPMs left. I was able to hit 190 on my old Vios so I'm wondering what's wrong here.This post has been edited by Newbie838: Jul 2 2014, 07:20 PM |

I was able to hit 190 on my old Vios so I'm wondering what's wrong here. i did it on the way to singapore while 180kph is easy cruising on the lekas. on a recent trip to ipoh with a few other 408T owners, the 2.0 could keep up but it did not have the explosive acceleration to burst away. then, we have traffic to even things out This post has been edited by lowpro: Jul 3 2014, 11:00 AM |

I don't wanna know what's your definition of pushing it.Good to know the 2.0 can reach those speeds. Maybe its because its still very new? Haven't even reached first service yet. |

I don't wanna know what's your definition of pushing it. don't kill your new car! its too new to be doing those speeds. chill and go slow till it is run in nicely. i know there will be differing views on how to run in a car but for me, i'd prefer to take it slow... maybe not more than 140kph ~ 150kph when before the first service at 10,000km. take it easy, lots of time to run your car later on.Good to know the 2.0 can reach those speeds.

QUOTE(daniellee84 @ Jul 3 2014, 05:10 PM) 210 is properly insane. I thought our malaysian highways are not sufficiently flat for you to drive at those speeds without your knuckles turning white the 2.0 does feel a little floaty at that speed. wonder how the turbo with stiffer and lower suspension feels. |

I must admit, at 200kmh my old E46 felt a bit more solid! However as it's not safe to drive at those speeds on Malaysian highways, it's not my regular visit. It's the advanced tech and superb handling on this car that I enjoy more than break neck high speed! |
