ya i rem play toying with one Vulva 2.4L at a gentle corner... he backed off... That car is too tall to corner accurately.. I used to owned a "TP" S40... Very bad handling and its a nose heavy front wheel drive, alot of understeer.

From my experience, the Vulvas, I mean Volvos are F-A-S-T.... esp the big turbo ones with the T something..... However, with all that power, it is the chasis that let it down..... it will do straight line runs without breaking into a sweat but when the road starts to turn a little, hope the driver is sensible to slow down..... I have skidded on a STRAIGHT and DRY road on my old S70T5..... it was scary....

Can anyone confirm this? Just heard from a friend who told me VinCar has started taking orders for the 335 coupe at S$206k. That's not bad a price but no details on the spec.
Heard anything?

They also have the M5. Three of them. I think their price of 410k can be cut down. I may consider if they cut down to 370K which is not impossible

200k on 335i is defintely a good proposition... however first turbo engine from bimmer and pml and PI cars.. this equation is rather complicated to deduce.
any of you guys on serious nego dun forget to chime for a group buy!

TP needs fast cheap cars. I wonder why the TP-GOVT Owned-Tax Free-Near Zero Profit, never ask BMW Asia to offer them M3. I dun mind joining Traffic Police force...

I've found out conditions for service; quite reasonable. Now to negotiate on both the 335i and M5...... but 335i gotta wait at least 6 mths for delivery.
Will keep u guys posted.
