Turbocharged

The heart could be too small for long distance on NSHW though is turbo charge but suit well for sin road.

That's not so good then if can't even handle what a Kancil or a Proton saga can do easily

Quick question - How long did the test drive last?

Out of showroom, make a U turn and go back?

Asking because wanna test the drive a little more.

 

Both LK & TP test drive routes are very short. When I requested for a longer drive, SE simply asked me to drive same route twice  [:p] . Claims its an insurance thingy to limit the test drive route...

hmm? the sti is usually 5x114.3 (ever since the hawkeye). Other subies using 5x100.

 

My info is correct for the prev gen. Not sure abt the current models.

the pcd is usually embossed on the inside of the rim. Best to ask shop to take out n see, since it's such a new model. U can also see the width and offset too. This will give u an indication of what new rim specs to use.

Yes, consider to change the rim, anyone interested to take over the stock rim?   [;)]

 

When I asked the SE on the PCD for Outback, the immediate answer is 5 x 100.  Went to a few rim shops to ask for 5x100 rims, they immediately asked "Are you driving a Subaru?".

 

Researched on the internet showed that 2015/16 Subaru Outback are 5 x 114.3, thus the confusion.  

 

Apparently 5 x 100 rims are not so common so only a handful of models are in stock.  The rest must indent.  5 x 114.3 are aplenty since it is common for more Japanese cars.  

 

Forester should be 5 x 100 though...

No a fan of those rims which has two tone color.  Prefer traditional pure silver color rims...

 

18" is just nice (balance of comfort and look), 19" will look better but have to change tyres...

 

Anyway, confirm the PCD is 114.3, so more choices now.

The 2016 model brought to SG compared 2015 model received a system face lift.

 

(1) Subaru rear vehicle detection system + enhanced side mirrors

(2) auto dimming rear window

(3) seri eyes free

 

Not facelift but just additional features

 

- turbo engine.. Gotta barter with a FXT bro who hates the 2.0T... Chances zero.. I am first on the waiting list..

 

Facelift.. Maybe 2018 arrive in SG.

 

Road tax: what u see is what u get

 

More importantly : have you booked?

omv $22.454

How come yours more that Cosmicclaw? U add what?
