One more thing i dont like with the mirage and maybe the g4. The steering wheel was slow on centering itself after coming out of a turn. Both vios and mirage has eps.

The eps of the vios lessens as speed increases, from 120kph onwards, i feel that assist is nonexist. This gives a more stable feel when i run it at 170kph.

this is true and this what makes me appreciate my vios. tried 170kph as well on skyway.

but you would not feel it inside the vios. IMHO, same with mirage.

I agree with this too... I tried 170kph above as well... and I'm so shock because it's only 1.3... It's like driving in 97 Mercedes E series... you won't feel anything...
