ER-3682 Twincharged August 21, 2019 Share August 21, 2019 Bro you mean manual mode on CVT? I prefer manual mode on DSG/DCT with paddle shifters There are so models like Mitsubitshi & Subaru,can use Paddle shift to select the "Gears"...not as sharp as Autobox or DSG..but still feel it. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferrytales 4th Gear August 22, 2019 Share August 22, 2019 $150k for a Hyundai? I dont think so.ð¤Lol another brand conscious fella. Check out the specs of the i30n before judging. The performance pack i30n is a beast of it's own with manual transmission. Guess you are the kind willing to pay 100 over k for a car...cause its branded.

I can understand the psychological barrier of paying that kinda $$ for kimchi car. I paid $180k for my Sorento turbodiesel in 2014. Good car but ppl still think i siao. But still considered cheap coz XC90 was abt $230k then 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, my COE was ard $80k then. Was looking then to upsize to a 7-seater SUV that didn't drive like a pig. Not many choices available so it was down to the powerful Sorento vs the underpowered & overpriced XC90. Pretty no brainer choice in the end Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

inlinesix Hypersonic August 22, 2019 Share August 22, 2019 $160k for A180? siao boh? For $150k, you can either get 134hp A180 or 250hp i30N. I think i30N has adaptive dampers. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
