i don't think the CKD and CBU will share the same features. perhaps engine and auto tranny same but other accessories eg leather seat, bigger sport rim, auto climate air con will sure lack

66k seems affordable. nicely priced for a 1.6. hoping 80k for a 2.0

Added on July 3, 2009, 10:05 ami have called to several naza kia dealers to ask them when this model will launch in malaysia and guess what they said this model has arrive in malaysia can be launched anytime. the delay is because they trying to clear the old spectra model as many as possible.

thanks a lot skybar!!

now will just wait for the launch of 1.6....i will go n check out...
but will definitely wait for 2.0...... cant wait!

i just came back from naza kia found out that naza will not release the 2.0L becoz next year they will launch kia optima replacement. but this 1.6L they said most likely will be launched b4 merdeka.

oh no!

sigh............ now have to look for replacement.....

They got say anything about Kia Soul ????

dun think naza will launch this model this year.

wah.. 66K is really a bargain...
just pray its not a strips down version aka EX? think maybe the CBU units refers to SX variant..

all the prices are just estimation from the salesman. but he promise the CBU unit won't exceed rm80k.

Saw 2 Forte today. both s'pore plate
really nice car but prefer the coupe one

does that mean naza will not be bringing this, at all? or much later in the future?

says alot about malaysian sentiment and mentality

not sure whether when will release the forte 2.0Lin m'sia. i am looking forward to the 1.6L launching see whether it can perform better than vios/city

hmm... 66k is a great price...
support the underdog...
