Zakuii 1st Gear April 13, 2007 Share April 13, 2007 I managed 14 to 15km/l on the NSE. 8) Maybe your friend's Stream is still new, running in? mineral oil? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apong1471 Neutral Newbie April 13, 2007 Share April 13, 2007 Yup, i believe when hit NSH should able to achieve 15km/l. Mileage is 8000km++, oil don't know what grade. The car is quite heavy, 1350kg, that's why quite steady when high speed, with 16" rim, cornering is as good as sedan car. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendstar Supercharged April 13, 2007 Share April 13, 2007 1350kg for a MPV is not really heavy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendstar Supercharged April 13, 2007 Share April 13, 2007 i like ur analysis! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendstar Supercharged April 13, 2007 Share April 13, 2007 Post: I think you under estimated the new Stream's FC. My current 2L f/l Stream already can give me average 11km/l. The new Stream with the newer and more efficient engine can definitely give better FC than 10.5 to 11km/l. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i have drove my friend new stream for 3 days, can only achieve 11km/l average with 70% highway. When travel to Senai & back to S'pore (about 100km distance), manage to achieve about 13km/l. It's a good car indeed, cabin is quiet, gear change is very smooth, can easily reach 140km/hr at ease, good handling, managed to hit about 160km/hr. 11km/litre is aready very good for MPV i mean altis is ard 12km/litre honda's engine is good but there's still a limit lah.

Apong1471 Neutral Newbie April 13, 2007 Share April 13, 2007 Honda's engine is good but quite noisy in the past, the latest civic & stream althou not fast in pick up, but manage to compensate on the quietness & ride comfort. Still waiting for my success bid on COE for new stream, should be another 2 to 3 mths b4 it fall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blacklancer Neutral Newbie April 15, 2007 Share April 15, 2007 (edited) Funny...side track compare to M5 liao. Just my personel review, got this cheap babe last Nov 68K 19kOMV 14.5COE :) Now a bit sian liao, anyone wants to buy ??? Engine - pickup above average, power comes in at 3K rpm. More responsive compare to mine old civic ES5 for a 7 seater. Handling - almost sedan like, seats low, no diff driving a ES5. No much body roll during hard cornering. Fuel Consumpt. - getting 10-11km/litre . PS I'm not light footed. Space - 3rd row seats mid size adult (<1.7) without problem - seems like small as the car height is low. But interior is as good as wish. Interior/Exterior - stream beats Wish anytime, below pics proofs it all!!!! Options added so far - leather seats $800 - 17in rims 1K - ICE 1.7k - Mugen Body kit $910 (spoiler & front grill still waiting to fix up next week) Other options in mind...Money not enough - exhaust / extractor - Lower/suspension - intake Alot more $$$ to spent :( For those wanting to buy..better wait till July KAH version. Peace of mind rather than PI. For me bo bian, timing issue. Edited April 15, 2007 by Blacklancer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
