Sony 1st Gear April 19, 2008 Share April 19, 2008 Not really a conti thingy.. it's the same with japz as well if you look beyong your fav honda.. the effectiveness of the signal strength is generally much lower when it's internal, and if you look at conti, their glass panel are usually treated, thus it add to the barrier.. maybe the japz have less of such things, thus you have not experience much interferences.. For a more simple reason, if it's good enough t obe hidden, why then would BMW< Mercs, etc have extra stuff on their roof? Same goes for lexus.. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstcall Clutched April 19, 2008 Author Share April 19, 2008 nice... but the local agent seem contented with selling the astra, even the Corsa D launched 2 years ago not even here. I think they will bring in the new Vectra. the price of vectra has bottom out more or less signalling a new replacement model next. Corsa yea, MIA. Last time CORSA has lotsa prob with its MTA. My fren's COrsa kenna tow truck so many times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shark fin means better reception? why not a round flatten antenna. Let me know, Thanks. Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanjkp Clutched April 19, 2008 Share April 19, 2008 GREAT improvements over the current model but first impression, the front looks a bit like the thai Camry... Of course look like Camry -- Opel also made in Thai..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sony 1st Gear April 19, 2008 Share April 19, 2008 Would you prefer a more aerodynamic design or a round flatten one? and I'm sure u know the earth is round.. so which is better in catching the frequency? I'm surprised that you ask Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sony 1st Gear April 21, 2008 Share April 21, 2008 More choices means their people need to be trained in more models, and they need to keep a bigger stocklist.. so not as easy as you mention by giving choices ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
