I used to hv one. Bought it RM53k and sold it at RM43k.
Got torque. Mine was auto tranny, chipped chip and installed SAFC, this gain low end torque and allow me to play with Cefiro V6 3000.
Smooth engine and no problem going up hill. Everything quite reliable.
Air cond. still working but unable to find the reservoir and blower for new except from half cut shop. The sun roof still working fine. The electronics inside still working good as well as the electronic fuel display.
The handling is superb even at 180km/h. No kidding, better than Accord, just like a continental car. The seat is comfortable.
The sucks.
1) The braking sucks, no good, unless change to better brake pads.
2) The ABS manyak kacau. Mine one the oil seal leakage in the ABS system, can't repair cos no spare parts.
3) The rear sit only allow for kids, I guess no more than age 3.
4) The air cond not cold enough due to mine the interior all black. Black absorb heat easily. Making the interior so hot.
5) Fuel consumption is higher than Vr4, no kidding.
6) The engine is damn hot like turbo car but nvr had a problem with the cooling.
7) The front lamp has a plactic cover, at long term using, the light will not project/focus properly.
8) The cruise control even is working but once u press it, the speed will lock at 110km/h. Even u increase it to higher than 110km/h
9) 4WS, 4 wheel steerling.... famous.. easy kacau. Not working.
10) Interior not spacious enough, maybe i am big size :lol:
The only thing I like about this car is sporty, low end torque and handling. Nothing else.
Hard to get loan nowadays for this car.
During the time I hv this car, I have studied a lot about this car and moddifier in Japan. The highest I have read in the magazine can achieve 290+ hp. Can eg do this? With 20B block also cannot make it unless turbo charge. :lol:
