RM66k?! this is seriously cheap, how about the features and accessories? did they removed some to save the cost? hmm.gif

as for the difference between the CKD and CBU not confirm yet but the SA assure me the extra 10k u pay is worth every cent.

if the CKD offer the same specs as the CBU, then i will go for the RM66k  drool.gif  drool.gif  drool.gif  drool.gif
coz i heard Kia CKD model is actually disassemble the bonnets&doors, send it here then reassemble back. They can claim that as CKD model and sell cheaper, it still the same quality with CBU model.

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

other i din ask becoz i only interested in this forte.


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.

ur rite a lot of my friends also anti kia becoz of their resale value and expensive spare parts. but what the heck the design is definitely better than vios, persona, waja and even altis. regarding the problems mention in the forum, heck even our national car also have lots of problem but still u see many people buying it. i myself also waiting to test drive the real thing then i will definitely order the white color. damn chun thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif
