Cbx750p 1st Gear January 13, 2006 Share January 13, 2006 I have driven my colleage's Optra5 and I am in the opinion that the Optra5 handle/feel better than my KorThairican Optra sedan. The steering also feels more positive and the leather steering is sure damn siok not to mention the audio control on the steering. Only thing I miss is the boot opening switch, the bigger boot space and the dual H3 head lamps ! The package put up by SA is very very attractive but as I am the typical "must have backside" kind of driver, the Optra5 Hatchback is not the kind of vehicle I would buy. Generally, I would still recommend the Optra5 for people who can forego the shortcomings that I have reservations about. CBX Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pisces69 6th Gear January 15, 2006 Share January 15, 2006 I kinda like the Wagon but no auto avaliable. Only saw the manual from korea. I heard the auto will b from thai. Maybe they might decide to bring the korean wagon with auto later on. (Sorry but I so used to auto). Really think it's a value for money car. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
