they will most probably outspec their competitors. latest i heard is the 2.0 will only be released later... no idea when though.
*
yup. dunno how true this SA claim that current and potential civic owner also eyeing for this forte.
all because of SG sales that sell like hot cakes.

sx no alarm ? what is that mean ? won't beep when the door is open after using the lock ??
*
not sure on beep sound (not notice on this). but no alarm coz the spec is following conti car.
so no alarm.

the keyless entry range is between 5 meters. you either can lock/unlock the car by using the remote key or you just can press the convenient button on the door handle (subject the keyless remote is with you in pocket)

and the range for start stop button is 1.5 meters. must press the brake pedal only can start the engine.
you can turn off the engine by pressing the button or you can just walk away (and the engine will die within 30secs when you're not in the signal range)

but i missed the part on door lock. if someone is visiting the showroom today, can check this or not?
whether the door will lock automatically once we're out of range?

alarm is the normal alarm as other cars do...
alarm without a buzzer means that.. when u unlock and lock the car...
it will have no 'ti ti' or 'tu tu' or whatever sound...
it is common nowadays..

it doesnt matter me much whether the car comes wif a buzzer..
but i rather hope that the car will automatically lock after a period of time..
haha.. waiting sum1 voluntary becomes the TS then can start v2

can start already lor.

standard rate is 3.5% (SA apply for you).

3.1% is only selected bank i guess (need to check personally).

To me, those are not "gift". I'm actually thinking of maybe petrol voucher, service voucher, kia emblem  brows.gif  etc.

Keychain??? Calender ?? Cap??  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif

according to my SA, they don't have KIA emblem.
maybe can ask bomberman to see whether they throw somewhere in port klang or not.

been there at pavi, but only after the launch party.
get the brochure and specifications detail.

at first look likes nobody care about our existence (me & gf)
then came indian guy, kind of manager from kg baru branch, have a chit chat a bit. he's a nice guy, and he ask whether want to take pics or not.

then a product manager talk with us, have a chit chat after took the pics. they treat us nicely. i got 2 copy of the same pics. they even process my pics first before others (which took earlier)

and for those who looks for bodykit, hold your wallet tight coz u might lose some money next year. hehe
there will be one sole distributor for bodykit, called NZ (or enzed - i'm not so sure on the spelling) in KL. they will sell bodykit for forte and other accessories too!

so no pics but the Red forte is damn nice. it makes the white forte looks ordinary (side by side).. hehe

Hmm, my thought exactly. Use RX-8. 1.3l engine. Or mini one, small engine.  biggrin.gif

If I were in the market for a car now, I would buy this one. But then again, I am not. Also, NAZA are known to be desperate sellers. IF its not flying of the shelf in few months, they release newer version with lots of goodies. Remember that tringle light car from Naza. Forgot what was that name. The signal indicator at A pillar. The car which meant to give Myvi a run for its money. Cannot find the car now.

I tried to go to the NAZA microsite. Say overbandwith. Looks like NAZA suck in customer satisfaction. Or maybe they just suck at customer service for low end market. I bet if buy ferrari, you will not get the same treatment.
*
i beg to differ. its a good sign because the microsite overbandwith. it's mean that the public response is enormous.
they just dont expect them to be like this.

most of us who book early because we already made research especially on SG market.
the only doubt is after sales service. but most car maker also face the same problem with some service center.

i guess we should seek the best service center only. not all incompetent.

Guys. anyone have inside info or can confirm if i would book for 2.0 on first week of Dec, when is the fastest can i get the car? Preferable before CNY can?
*
sorry. although some said can get the car mid december, some said only on feb/march 2009... i will say you should expect only next year can get the car.
coz they only have few units for 2.0 cbu. so to be on the safe side, NAZA said only feb/march 2010 can deliver.
for those who book early, they might get the chance to get the 2.0 mid december. but the chances is like throwing a dice.

Guys, if let say I have paid RM1k for deposit, when is the time that i need to settle the remaining 10% deposit of the car? Can I paid when tha days come nearer once the SA inform you that your car is ready for collection (eg 1 week before collection of the car)? Is it the procedure like this?
*
i believe you should pay once the car ready and loan approved (loan should be fast within 3 days to 1 week)
they will hold the stock for 2 weeks after car has been allocated to your booking
