ceecookie SG Specs are Specs.. i think one best advice is to go down personally and test drive the indicated cars. The handling and personal opinion counts more than mere specifications
Unknown_X SG the merc has a bigger engine capacity, but audi seems to have better acceleration. but like wat cookie say, it all boils down to personal preference.
FirePig SG drive the audi. In singapore, the sheltered carparks are so cramped and small and catered towards 1600cc cars.
nightsky87 SG the merc has a bigger engine capacity, but audi seems to have better acceleration. but like wat cookie say, it all boils down to personal preference.Probably because the audi is almost 200kg lighter than the merc.. TS, you do know both the cars you are comparing (A4 vs CLK) are both very different cars? One of them is a 4 door sedan while the other is a 2 door cabriolet..
nightsky87 SG drive the audi. In singapore, the sheltered carparks are so cramped and small and catered towards 1600cc cars.?? The Audi A4 is not exactly small either.. If you notice the LWH comparison, the Audi is longer, wider, and taller than the Merc leh...
FirePig SG ?? The Audi A4 is not exactly small either.. If you notice the LWH comparison, the Audi is longer, wider, and taller than the Merc leh... ok my bad.Anyway, unless TS is a really good driver, its not recommended that he get such a big car.
Gosu. SG ok my bad.Anyway, unless TS is a really good driver, its not recommended that he get such a big car. Yea, U-turning on a 2 lane with cars at the side can be a huge hassle.
nightsky87 SG ok my bad.Anyway, unless TS is a really good driver, its not recommended that he get such a big car.Yeah, furthermore our TS is still a teen student and still taking his license.. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I think maybe it would be more prudent for a young and new driver not to drive these slightly higher powered cars..
Agenda SG Actually the point is not whether which car is better or what not. I just wanted to know how to compare Engine Torque and stuffs, so I got two random cars off and compared.
john_doe161 SG Actually the point is not whether which car is better or what not. I just wanted to know how to compare Engine Torque and stuffs, so I got two random cars off and compared. Of all the random cars, you picked and Audi and a Merc? How about picking ANOTHER 2 RANDOM cars ?
kaeden SG Of all the random cars, you picked and Audi and a Merc? How about picking ANOTHER 2 RANDOM cars ? erhm, whats your point ? if he chose another 2 random cars, will you be able to answer his questions?
john_doe161 SG erhm, whats your point ? if he chose another 2 random cars, will you be able to answer his questions? The other posts more or less answered his question.
Unknown_X SG Yeah, furthermore our TS is still a teen student and still taking his license.. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I think maybe it would be more prudent for a young and new driver not to drive these slightly higher powered cars.. hmm i beg to differ. i drove a prado immediately once i got my license. i got so used to the size of the car that when i changed to the mark x which im currently driving, it helped alot.but for those who r not confident, i think they shld just stick to a regular 1600cc car.

BangHong SG But I don't think like MX5 and Fairlady are much bigger than Altis and friends?cherry QQ can join in?
Unknown_X SG nightsky: no la i not power. im just trying to say it does help in a way. agenda: fairlady is quite big compared to altis and friends.
nullifi3d SG But I don't think like MX5 and Fairlady are much bigger than Altis and friends? The original MX5 of the 90s were smaller and more nimble compared to the latest ones.I remember sitting in one and my forehead exceeded the height of the windshield. Hence i could only drive it top down.
