hyundai azera

Finally, i managed to get something here.....alas! on the 18th of november, me and ma buddies were hanging out at a place called "the mall", one of the shopping centres in brunei located somewhere near the town area. I luckily happened to stumble upon a motor show featuring hyundai cars. as much as i am not into hyundai, i went to check it out. I soon got to know that hyundai has released a new model called AZERA, grandeur. shameless me went to take a look and pretended to look like a possible buyer, had a little conversation with the salesperson and finally i managed to persuade him to allow me test drive the car hehe! honestly i'd have to admit, it was a superb machine, in response to the specifications. it has a good throttle response, cool interior, spacious i'd have to admit....hehe, stability was there, cud feel it the moment i took off. it was like as if it knew or could anticipate my next move. i could blabber on and on abt it...still be pointless. coz to actually know it is to drive it. like a lot of car freaks out there would say, driving is believing, hAHA. ALSO i'd have to admit, i havent got enough driving experince yet to say that much. so currently due to lack of driving experience, I always look at the technical specifications. equipped with a 3 litre engine, together with a front
16-inch Ventilated Disc, 1 Pot-caliper Brake with pad wear warning device,
Rear
15-inch Solid Disc Brake with Parking Brake System,1 Pot-caliper Brake with pad wear warning device ,
Front suspension
Double wishbone type with stabilizer bar
Rear
Multi-link type with stabilizer bar. i'd say this car has it. All based on the little technical knowledge that i have. well i guess, thats as much as i can say...still feeling a bit lost in the world of automobiles. scrapping thru whatever knowledge and understanding i have left in this brain of mine. overall....it was a good experience! hope to be able to try more cars here. till then...
