[QUOTE="MANAMOHAN, post: 120235, member: 2183"] Speedo reading? Not sure what you mean bro, cos on mine, the display shows up to 260km/h. But, speed is still cut off at 180. If there's a down-hill road or some wind assistance, i can touch 200. But it'll eventually level off at 180. Real pity. My suggestion is not to buy Jap spec cars. They require higher octane fuels, have stricter emmisions rules ( with resulting poorer power output), and use a crappy auto-box. The one in mine is not the highly touted ZF type or the GM one. Well placed sources say its the same 5 speeder used in Nissans. The only thing to be proud about is the build quality and the fact that used units from Japan tend to be well maintained. Check with dealer or have a look at the car interior and engine bay. There will be the tell-tale Japanese stickers. Or get AB guys or franchise dealers to enter chassis number into their computers...the spare parts shop i patronise (in Spore) can tell my car make, model and year, plus country of origin with the click of a button. Ciao. [/QUOTE]
