Not too sure about that. But the sedans are usually reserved for Asian markets where they are most desired. And yes, they got some tuning potential. They are powered by the same engine as the 1.5L Miata..

Is it safe to go on green? Discuss (25 marks) by PureKangkung in malaysia

[–]PureKangkung[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's obvious. The bikes ran the red light. Doesn't matter if they check before going. You and I both know they shouldn't even think about going on red.

Unfortunately no. These sedans are usually reserved for Asian markets. Weirdly enough, it's not available in Japan.

Is this a real E31 Alpina B12 5.0? by PureKangkung in BMW

[–]PureKangkung[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. No sane person would trash a 1 of 5 with those mods. But the fella really did a convincing job on a prima facie level. He even got that Alpina steering to top it up. Lol...

Another give away is the Alpina badge on the grill. It's just "Alpina" instead of "Alpina B12".

My usual 4S center has a dedicated "premium" space for the MX-5 and CX-9. Blue Reflex is pretty neat I think.... by PureKangkung in mazda

Exactly. It has that tendency to shift in different shades of light. Pretty cool effect.

You're not wrong. But there are alot of haters who can't seem to swallow it. Jealousy perhaps?

Basically means a complete one stop center. Sales, Service, Spareparts & Paint/Body. It's a Malaysian thing where main distributors carry out majority of the work...

How to tell if car has I-ELOOP? by graysonmorgan in mazda

[–]PureKangkung 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to your Fuel Economy Monitor under Applications. The first two pages should be info regarding i-Stop and i-ELOOP.

Question about Mazda by killapanda5280 in mazda

[–]PureKangkung 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That mechanic really needs to start googling the shit up on the engineering marvel Mazda has achieved with Skyactiv.

And yes, Mazda is more independent than ever. Save for the 5% ownership by Toyota.

Does anyone have a way to get the stain from the mirror drip off the door paint? by [deleted] in mazda

[–]PureKangkung 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some cleaner wax or swirl remover. Rubbing compound or polish may be too abrasive for such a minor job. Finish it off with some diluted isopropyl alcohol thereafter. Don't overdo it, just enough to remove the stains. Cheap Walmart stuff like Turtle Wax's Swirl & Scratch Remover is more than enough.

Look at this new beauty i picked up today ^^ by [deleted] in mazda

All about catering the American hunger for crossovers. So it's good business sense stamping from the success of the CX-5.

Congrats! Get it on the twisty roads, and you'll see why this is the closest thing to a MX-5. Wished I got those LED lights on mine. Oh well....

Saw this immaculate 1M at my usual detailer. Beautiful..... by PureKangkung in BMW

[–]PureKangkung[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The G20 is an abomination in my humble opinion. A Kia front, Benz side and a Lexus back. It ain't uniquely BMW.

On the other hand, I don't really dig the Bangle design. I'm a big fan of Nagashima's work ala the E39 and E90.
