I had a Kia Spectra once... Yeah, it was alright... Til the part where I almost died in it... F*cking thing's brakes weren't working! Almost smashed into a Mercedes in front of me... God damn Spectra... Good thing its gone now...

Now, the Forte and the Koup looks very nice... Kia's moving up in the automotive world... As long as the car dont try to kill you, its all good...

Now, for some actual information for you...

Actual Information For You

There ya go... Too long to read, couldn't be f*cked... Might come in handy for what your looking for...

the 2.4L and 2.0L are the real deal nod.gif

The Forte Koup uses the GEMA Theta II engine, of which you can view more info here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Engine...turing_Alliance ... it's shared with Mitsubishi and Chrysler!

Small engine and locally assembled, suddenly no more appetite already, haih...
*
i felt bit dissapointed also becos saw this car with sporty look but small engine...but back to reality, this 1.6L suppose to compete with vios or city...then its quite good also if cheaper

2.0/2.4L is for koup...using Gema engine...

if you read paultan review there were 2.0 and 2.4 forte tested...koup and the other one has 4 door...but dont expect it to be around 70k

u have many options...dont be so disappointed

not so sure naza will bring the 2.0 and 2.4 though

At least it doesn't look bland like the Toyota Vios...

The car design line at least looks more refined, dynamic and certainly sleek unlike bloated Vios front...

i agree. ppl say copy there and here. but as the result it looks not too aggressive but great. Eurasian i would say sweat.gif
