came with pilot primacy and traded-in for pilot preceda 2...

where can do trade in? is it worth it for me to trade in my Dunlop Sports 01 MO for pilot preceda 2?

which is more quiet? can anyone advise?

from south east.. not sure about sports 01 but pilot premacy is not even a performance tyre and got quite bad rating for noise.. wonder why it is one of the choices when they are giving CSC3...

Hi, new here currently an Audi A4 1.8T owner and considering the C Class. Is the C230 worth getting over the C200? My Audi has been chipped to 205 horses and not sure if i can give that extra uoomph of the turbo as well.

Hi, thanks for the welcome.

I was looking at the spec of the C200 and the C230 as well, the diference seems minimal 184 vs 204 hp whilst the torque is higher for the C200 also. list price is 23k difference. Giving up 20 horse from my current car is going to be painful. But i love the shape of the new C class. Anyone here driven/got the C280? ;)

no way la, C63 is so new.

but isn't the C63 using current engine? so can essentially use previous W203 model engine, that's old enough ;D

yah lah, change engine is not legal lah... singapore motor modifications very strict, many things also illegal :)

even all the Kleeman upgrades etc are grey areas

changing engine is illegal here, consider cheating case

unless both engines are of the same size and one of the cars must be scrapped right after that...

so... if you can get both engines to be the "same size"... it can be done right?

^.^ dont think to much..

Me also a B7 owner. Seriously spking, the B7 steering feel is better than C200. Y dun wait till the B8 reach our shores and make comparision with the c200.

never had a chance to test drive the C200, but was suprise that the FWD B7 have a better steering than the RWD C200.

btw, heard that the B8s only comes in CVT gearboxes...very disappointing >:(

correct me if i am wrong, but from what i understand, freebies and price from C&C merc pretty standard, so not much difference expected.

but i am opting for parktronic to compensate for my poor parking skills :P
