    Maganda sana kung dry ang weather para ma-appreciate talaga natin ang performance nya.
    Give em your dealership's contact details. They'll gladly heed.[emoji4]

    Maybe the Laus Group can sponsor a test drive of the various brand models they carry locally. They can include Ford, Chevy, Kia, Hyundai, etc.

    Now, I am really wishing my next car to be RWD.

    Had fun poking sctex with u guys. Ü. Car begs to be driven hard, and i have driven STIs, but this pushed my insides towards my back better as Sparc would testify. The acceleration is insane. And that's with 4 people pa.

    There is one thing I have forgotten to mention. There is minimal turbo lag from that turbo V6.

    If the weather cooperated and we had dry roads last Saturday, we might hit 250 kmh. I could feel that we were near the end of grip with SCTEX being wet and pushing the car faster would cause it to lose grip in the rain (or maybe I was not just channelling my best Senna moment in the rain). 190kmh in pouring rain is not most common guys would do. Hehehehe

    Likewise sirs. That was a blast, my organs had a hard time keeping up with inertia.

    Truly a Sport Sedan worth considering, if one had the extra cash and didn't mind the badge, just to make the others wonder. hehehe.

    I was actually hoping we would experience a bit more of a slide, aside from the hydroplaning, so as to see how how stable it was.

    Perhaps next time, if there is another test drive, they also allow us to go up to Dinalupihan, even if we have to pay for the gas,

    Was it on the same day we were in Clark?

    I doubt if we would have seen it, they would most likely have cleared it right away.

    That just sucks, to smash an expensive toy like that less than a month after getting it.
