Great, been enjoying the K5 for the past 2 wks ;D I like the firm suspension & the heavy steering and of course the great looks. As for the FC, it is abt 9.4km/l for the 1st tank...

I just saw a red wan this morning, 1st sighting ;D If I'm not wrong, there are only 50 pcs from the 1st shipment, some have not delivered. So there are < 50 on the road currently, rare species....next shipment will be in july/aug.... 0.99% interest offer is limited to 1st 20 rides during the official launch. I booked mine during pre-launch...no such promotion and no higher spec model....

I only realise there is "mood lighting" red LED strip under the front door speaker last wkend. Saw it on the brochure, but thought that is for higher spec model It is kinda dim, you will not notice it unless u squat down & peep underneath the speaker housing, kinda cool ;D

more feedback abt K5 after 2 wks of driving... Things tat I like: - there is alarm when the foot brake is not release while driving, very useful as i tend to forget... - call ID will display on the head unit, will show the name from your stored HP contact to let u decide to take the call or not. - Iphone friendly - smooth and responsive auto tranny - firm suspension Things tat i dun like: - noisy nexen tires - vibration can be felt at the gear level - engine sound a bit harsh once above 4k rpm - squeaky wiper - sometime wiper will swipe 1 time during engine start if under auto mode. well, to me those r minor flaws which some of them can be rectified with better parts. Nevertheless, it is still a damn cool ride, looking forward to drive it everyday
