Actually i just sold a Kia Sorento lol, the service center at Klang is not that bad i think(always my mum bring it to services so not sure XD)
thanks for the feedback~just want to ask how is the nissan second hand value izit good?

City is good (overpriced) car.
PUG is hatch back too, yes they are mentioning Peugeot 308 Vti (RM96k)

my vote.. sure Forte la (booked 2.0.. pending for delivery)
service might be bad from Naza.. only 2 years what.. after that go outside la..
and the different with Naza and Kia..
Naza = Kia and Kia = Naza..
but when u see the car with Naza emblem = CKD, if u see it's Kia = CBU.

see.. kia is improving..
usually when ppl saw Kia..
before is High FC, bad quality..etc.
now can't really judge the Kia again.. unless they test drive it or own it.
big move... rather than giving bad impression like before...

Forte price is CKD price.
which mean 93800 is CKD price, only first few batches is CBU due to the plant is not yet fully set up.
so you guys save the gas to talk about this. (sai hei)
according to those "SA".. next year Forte price is going to increase.

This is what I am trying to explain earlier. It may sounds like a salesman talk... but chances of it increase the price next year is there, although we may be wrong.

yeah.. wondering why they want to seperate the price as CBU and CKD when we already knew the strategy of Naza...
they are pretty smart in doing pricing... and now naza starting to strike up the price rather than slashing it..
look at KIa nd Peugeot... making more and more money.. btw.. we are out of topic...

As cybermaster said, I dont think Forte or any Korean models would be taking over Japanese Sales in Msia....its deep rooted in Msian buying experience because of its resale value.

But personally I think Korean cars had made significant improvement in its quality and FC. After market Korean parts is equal in price compared to any Japanese model. Hence I dont think its parts price is expensive as compared many years ago.

I own a Kia Optima and my sister owns a new camry, our service part pricees; all the way to air filter, compressor, radiator, timing belt, etc, price are comparable.

indeed malaysian mind has tight with japs car... deeply.
it won't happen in anytime soon that any other foreign car can beat japs car in short period of time.

but cybermaster98 you are too certain that japs can be the king forever... in global review that Korean car is increasing sales while japs is not.
a big recalls from japs auto giant and in the same time korean car sales increasing is a fact.

i do agreed after sales service is a major fact that brings down korean car, but that's out of our control. (thanks to naza, but i hope sime darby will do better on this)
compare to old time korean car did their best to produce a better car with cheaper price.
