went with a friend to test drive a 5 and a 3 this am. sales also told me active steering and dynamic drive was previously sold as a package, much much cheaper before. for those who had chosen this
yes you can not just get 1 of them in HK :thumbsdown:
that is why I did not get it because it will cost over 60k

Just an updates, the F16 pulse king actually work in my car (Maybe i am bias)
when i were driven back home last night, i feel its more easier maintain the speed without push harder on the accelaration.

I dont know still, but hope it will extend my weak battary life and lets see if it could eliminate the alarm problem on my car.
Thanks pinguhk

i had my shocks and springs checked and they are perfect, however the trade-off is the wear on the other parts, i've changed the thrust rods/bushes and bars and now the
"candle holders" are found to be kaput!
but these are not hazzardous parts, broken shocks are dangerous!!

think bill also said b4 that the stock shocks dont last. in any case, if you change the spring rate, then you should get right shocks for them.
