my new non cefiro

[CEF11E]

I just bought a Gloria as a replacement for my Cefiro. and am really liking it. so i thought i would post up some specs and pics

At first impression after having a Cefiro the Gloria is a quiter and smoother ride. the steering has less "feedback" but is still very direct the brakes are the same as the cefiro.

Interior: Brown velour and woodgrain(very plush)

features:

electronic

-seats

-climate control

-mirrors

-pillarless windows

-ariel

-boot release

-fuel filler release

-air purifier

infact you name it, it has it.

its the most pimpin interior i have ever seen in a jap car. it has about 15 interior storage pockets and the rear passangers have cigar lighters in each door and climate control.

Exterior:

Strange looking at first. like an 80's VIP cruiser and i guess thats exactly what it is. it could really do with some 18" rims. The style is dated but kinda kool.

The model i have is the "Grand Turismo" and its a VG20DET engine and a auto gearbox. The auto is very smooth and predictable you can hold it in a gear or ghange down with a quick foot stab.

the little engine is superb. it reves to 7k and delivers very linear ultra smooth power. i would estimate it puts out 115rwkw in standard form.

i suspect it has a strange twin wastegate setup more on this as i have time to investigate it.

these photos have been chopped so i could see what it would look like with tinted lights insted of orange

[CEF11E]

cant belive it was for sale for so long it's immaculate and i got it for a great price!

this car was at UAS ? ....i remember seeing it on there website i think.....

its quieter than the cefiro??? ...holy crap ....i thought the ceffy was dam quiet .....

i thought about that car when i was looking for a new car but .....i couldn't buy another car with a brown interior ..........last car had a brown velour interior......ithought was very nice but seems to be a weak point in selling the damn thing....

cars looks good though!

[CEF11E]

hehe yeah i thought i would never buy i car with a brown velour interior but i really like it its so comfortable and i will be keeping it for atleast 3 years so in 3 years it prob wont be worth much anyway. and who knows! brown interiors might be back in fasion! LOL

gloria's are the ones that are pillarless right?

if so you need 20" rims and talk to kursed bout some air bags

I know someone who has an '86 one, they were insane even then!
