I suppose the metal is thinner by 0.1MM or 0.2MM compare with other cars. When you knock in the doors or other panels. They sound so much thinner with the "thong thong" sound I remember once I tried a Forester. Close the door, the 'piang' noise sound like lorry. Sibeh chui. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sound so much thinner with the "thong thong" sound it's not just the metal panel thickness. It's also the lack of sound absorbent/deadening material inside the panel. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine ride is the only one never has any breakdown and I am happy 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
