gendon 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2007 that fellow was driving a RWD MX5 at that time, he probably thinks it's just another FWD/4WD that he can floor the throttle and get away with it. Sorry lor, RWDs are not for novices esp at high speed/heavy throttle.that's not the worse thing. FACT IS, after this accident, he DID NOT learn his lesson. And somemore went to claim he wants to test drive another *performance* vehicle in forum and got discovered that was him. Then all h#ll broke lose and everyone remembered him and demanded action. Otherwise the case would have been forgotten and buried.People even wrote in to demand answers from the TP, why the case was taking so long.Think next time cars should be fitted with Driving License detectors with new licenses embedded with speed limiters. (like cash car machine, but must slot in your license to drive the car) Meaning no matter what car, as long as it is slotted with a license with <2 years driving experience, the car is limited at 50km/hr by default. And only when it enters expressways, gadgets on the expressway override the limiter and allows 80km/hr. Of cos there are ways to fool the system. Like using some other's license and so on....lolor when the person got license many years liao, but not much real driving experience..heheBut think the logistics of getting such things implemented will put off any govt lah..heheheThe cars that I can think of with regards to your suggestion....the Peel P50 (top speed abt 60km/h):Peel P50 video clip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
compassvale 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2007 (edited) It is here in Singapore posted in another forumhere's my takereal life impression: not as big as i thought it would be. definitely had a *gundam* look to it.look at the signature 4 red circular tail-lights carried forward from the R34 soon, the tussle between WRXs and EVOs shall be no more....cos when the left lane is taken by the evo, right lane taken by the WRX.....in the middle zooms past the GTR.....It's no longer *smell no smoke*......it's 1up.......*SEE NO TAIL-LIGHT* that's when the GTR zooms past them and the 4 red tail-lights merge into a single red line Edited December 23, 2007 by compassvale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
compassvale 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2007 (edited) Phantom,new SLK for 2008, faceliftedThe sporty looking Mercedes Benz SLK which you have come to love just got sportier for 2008. Incorporating around 650 newly developed parts, the 2008 SLK is now more "F1 inspired" through the modification of the front air dam, a pronounced F1 nose and grille spine. At the rear, a new lower skirt and pipe design make for a more aggressive rear, complimented by a pair of darkened rear lamps. The new cabin houses a new multi-functional three-spoke sports steering wheel and a new instrument cluster.Power plant wise, the four-cylinder supercharged engine of the existing SLK200 will be carried forward with power boosted by 15 kW/21 hp (to 135 kW/184 hp) and torque increased from 240 to 250 Nm. If that is still not enough power for you, the SLK is also available with a six-cylinder 3.5-litre V6 engine that develops 224 kW/305 hp at 6500 rpm.
