Haha that's the point my cousins raised when they came for a tour here- one cannot ever truly make use of their car's potential in normal (legal) driving. They were so surprised that CC is in abundance here and that 'anybody' can go out and buy a V8 car with heaps of kW- whereas in M'sia road...

How much was the discount off the actual car and what extras did you get? We were offered mud flaps or carpets- or 5 year extended warranty with roadside assist. I doubt the negotiation room is that much considering there's such a long waiting list (I heard June?) and it's still a reasonably...

Sounds dodgy but with all these new IR laws... anything goes as long as it's in the contract.

I'm not too familiar with Honda's naming conventions but is Type S inferior to Type R?

Damn variable speed camera.

Type S uses PULP, Luxury uses ULP!... but I believe Civic has better fuel consumption figures; URL: http://www.honda.com.au/wps/wcm/connect/Honda.com.au/Home/Showroom/Integra/Features/Engineering/Integra+-+Features+-+Engineering In comparison, my Civic VTi-L 5AT (automatic) Petrol uses...

Same age as me Ciel :P The Integra Type S... how'd they manage to use same engine and get so much more power without s/c or t/c? I'm guessing it doesn't have either or it would be on the ban list. And... I'm driving ultra careful now after that minor scratch :P ... but driving the Terios...

haha i met one of the nerds fc guys the other day.. he was advertising for med revue and gave my frd an autograph lol~

I feel so discriminated against by being 1 year too old... and I'm 2 days too late! Oh well! ahah

Opportunity cost is the issue. Tyres can be changed on any vehicle. I think the topic creator should post why he wants to buy an Evo, and then from there, we can see whether or not it really suits. I'm also inclined to think he should at least test drive one.

Oh btw the Evo is horrible to sit in when not moving... we had to sit for 3 hours waiting to cross the bridge from Malaysia to Singapore and apart from attracting a lot of stares, it was damn horrible... Sure those features are useful for normal driving situations, but under city/suburban...

Looks good. But damnit black is so frikkin hard to keep clean ><

I reckon it's pretty important to drive a shitty car before you drive a good one- it helps you appreciate the drive of the good car a lot more. *thinks of dreaded terios* Still have to rock up to your place to let you try it Ciel~

People who won't be able to make use of the performance aspect and are only buying the car for show :P (not to suggest that the topic creator is one such person). From a rational standpoint, the Ford is a much better buy- and as someone else mentioned, the Evo is an enthusiasts car- but if...

Anyone remember back when the Police WRX had the speed radar issues?

The IS250 at $54k is alright- although I remember thinking the old IS was very overpriced at $50k for a very ordinary car.

The reason I raised the point was because he seems like a new driver (no offence intended) and probably won't make use of nor appreciate the power of the Evo, and might also be expecting a little bit more from the interior for the $30-40k budget which he intends to spend. Although...

At the shops? LMAO... I can't even be stuffed covering my car at home nowadays- you're gonna be attracting a lot of attention if you cover it at the shops. And I am thinking (to Mr Brightside) that the luxury model of IS is probably loaded down with a lot of features and gimmicks in an...

I also think buying an old Evo is quite challenging since in those days they would've been imported by people who were serious car enthusiasts- and as a result are likely to have suffered a lot of wear. That in itself is a pretty big con because you might need to spend a bit to fix it all up and...

Yeh it's definitely gonna keep me on the watch out now... I'm surprised I didn't notice it was a school zone but then I might've noticed it, but not realised that it was school zone time (usually I avoid the hassles of mums and dads rushing to pick up kids/drop them home of that hour)... I...
