Glxfan 1st Gear December 11, 2009 Share December 11, 2009 Lets hope so. hmmm...i guess only time will tell... Heard that the Drive train of Ralliart is still base on Evo 9. But frankly, if so much need to be done for Ralliart, i will rather go for Sti for the same price. Also i dont think Jetta GLI will be as unreliable as what ppl say. Saying that, do you think there will be any chance for Mitsubishi to transfer their SST gear box to their regular Lancer EX? yup bro u're 100% correct abt the drive train...equipped with SAWC from evo 9...should be quite a fun and engaging car to drive compared to jetta but however sitting in the jetta, i still feel jetta is much more comfy and luxurious ride...depends on TS's requirements act... STI should be a better buy if TS requirements is on bhp and power :) that aside...somehow I feel that ralliart equipment levels slightly edges out the STI though if you don't look at the bhp figures alone...evo 9 hardware seems comparable to STI SI drive too...sorry no offence to STI drivers here...just my opinion... SST to Lancer EX, possible...we don't know what the mkt dept has in store haha...but could be offered at a later stage perhaps? U know these fellows love playing planned obsolescence games... i wonder what did VW do to keep their DSG cost low... anyway, i was considering Lancer EX 2.0 and Jetta 1.4 Twin Charge for my next Car. my driving style prefer something with a Low End torque. bro DSG and SST both are similarly expensive to replace too :( And if your preference is low end torque...I think getting the Jetta would be better act im driving the Lancer EX 2.0 Manual version...low end torque is not that fantastic if you compare it to the Jetta...before getting the EX i was planning on getting the 1.6 Jetta act but the pick up not really good :( and after trying the 1.4 Jetta I was like...WOW haha...but budget dont allow... and if you're planning on getting the Lancer EX 2.0...my suggestion is to get the manual version, the pick up at low end is much better than the CVT version...go for a test drive and try it out :) or come for lancer meet ups a lot of cars there for you to try hehe...

Jamesgetz 4th Gear December 11, 2009 Share December 11, 2009 for those considering WRX/STi in the near future, do consider the insurance. it's likely to increase even further next yr with fewer WRX on the road and if more similar stunning accidents were to continue... http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/stomp/sg...n_pavement.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
