Wow exceptional, this car has quite some performance for what one should call a warm hatch. The farts are 😉😉, and it actually moves. This is a great car.

[@belvederedog3015]

I can't see any gold flakes in mine. If anything it has a silver tinge to it. Regardless, it looks fantastic in the pearl white. Never thought I would ever have a white car but this one looks great with the red and black contrasts. Fell in love with it the moment I saw it in the pearl white.

[@jonfisher8721]

These cars actual have ALOT of potential. Bigger intakes are proved to net around 10hp, turbo back exhausts 15-25hp. Plus a tune the velosters/elantras/ceratos with these engines consistently make 240+wheel hp. I've got the older Koup Turbo model, same engine just with a regular 6spd auto not a dct.

[@jay-uo2bi]

I think you could get 260-280 with intake, exhaust and ECU reflash. Bare in mind this has more potential then a Koup Turbo as 7DCT much better and this engine has been revised and fixed since then.

[@jonfisher8721]

@@jay-uo2bi opposite actually, the dct can take less torque vs the regular auto. The rods start to bend at the figures you stated :( may defiantly be possible if it's using the current elantra's turbo. It's suspected to be a little bigger as it makes the same rated power at less pressure.

[@metalocalypse2011]

Lmao 0.5 seconds quicker is "leaving it in the dust" is it? A 0.5 second gap can be closed between driving skills. If a good driver is sitting in the Cerato and a crappy driver in the Astra, guess who is winning? Kia has cheaper servicing, cheaper parts and a thriving modding community. With a tune and a catback, GTs are getting in the sub-6 ranges. Also, the Astra looks like my grandma. The reliability is like my grandma too. The post sale support is like what they provide for a dying grandma. And it looks like a dying grandma should be in it.... Dumbass Holden fanboy trying to justify his cuck Astra purchase.

I own a 2016 Kia Optima 2.4 in Sydney. Although Kia says it will run on 91, it knocks quite badly on it. So I run 95 Ron and higher. It seems the GDI motors will run on 91 Ron but mine pings under load so I use premium and it's fine.

[@kiensane2670]

I wonder how this is head to head with an Holden Astra BK RS. Power output and engine size are very similar. As the astra pushes 280nm of torque and 147kw. Very interesting to see. Cerato has a much better interior and aggressive exterior.
