Did you say NAZA? Carefull dude.. just a friendly advise. I cancelled my
order from them last time after nearly 6 months waiting for my Audi TT.

Ha ha.. I have no answer about the exhausts. But for Audi TT, twin
exhausts is available for a Quattro version with 225bhp.

140kmh only and you are nervous? The Waja, Wira and Gen 2 owners in the
Proton forums claim they easily achieve 210 kmh or so...... u got an
inferior car?

Actually even a BMW 328i with 192hp is hard pressed to reach 240kmh, but
the clowns in those forums claim their 110-hp Protons can do over 200kmh.

Zommzoom88,

funny thing is, they even claim that they reach beyond 200 kmph although
the speedometer show only upto 200 kmph as maximum.

err....no lah, they are some equipment which can unlock their speed limit
but of coz their engine must be capable to run at that speed haha

Actually i got 3 car in mind. 1 Celica GTS , 1 Altezza , 1 Audi A4T.

every month i saw a a4 mod model at my customer site, it is very attractive
lah.. some more at my resident place just open a AP dealer selling all sort
of japan sport car , Initiase my dear will like to have Celica but i saw
that altezza also quiet nice..

really fall into 3 party games now.haha. but what is the to-do list when we
wanted to buy from those AP dealer ?

im sure the protonscan reach speeds above 160. but you really need a long
and smooth road like highways to do that.....but yea above 140 it would
float already. and is pretty unstable already.....not sure about thier high
speed cornering though.....ive noticed my familys wira losing alot of grip
at about 70kmh while turning about 20 degree turns. engine also not
responsive enough.

but then again....i would happily drive a celica at 130 kmh rather than
drive a proton at 220.

i dont like people tailgating on public roads, especially when im on the
left lane.

tailgating is dangerous! do not do it! some you gave example of the front
car losing control. nobody died so you're laughing. when some1 gets hurt
or even you urself get, will you be laughing then? drive at your own
speed, if your comfartable at 90km/h on the highway and somebody comes up
to you at 210km/h, dont panic just let him thru. and more importantly,
you don't have to chase him/her. why if you can tail gate them back
you'll get rm1000? so please drive safely!


on a different note: i drive my proton at a constant 190-200km/h on the
very windy and bumpy east-west coast highway without any problems. only
1600cc, so my meter must be printed wrongly cos i swear it show's a max
of 240km/h. i do this nearly every week (once or twice) other than normal
servicing (3 weeks once), no problems so far. hmmm...
