hahaa… mapo is more closer to how it sounds in Chinese..
mr.alcheng- i think nissan is trying too hard. the G coupe is known for its simplicity in the styling. just a few simple clean, yet bold lines. that's all it takes.

Mr.kenchan

it used to have its own style and image and the direction was good...

Then it's trying so hard to go towards the Euro...

I rather they stay on the Japanese luxury attitude with good chassis tuning than right now the are going towards a "when merc banged nissan" path....

mr.alcheng- do you remember the concept car that was for the G37C? i was really sold on that design...until they released the actual production G37C i still can't seem to like the G37C's exterior. the IPL looks like a joke to me too.

I'm still trying to get an understanding of what Ken was trying to fix. Was it the lurch in 1st? Can an Uprev tune fix that?

So is that the same thing that I'm referring to? In first...when I let out the clutch, more often than not...the engine hesitates...lurches if you will. It's damn embarrassing. I've been driving standard transmissions for a loooong time, and it makes me feel like I suck at it.
