Kia Forte

Good overall car.
Value for money.
Nice ride.
Smooth Engine.

The thing with KIA is that when it is new,it is good.But once it starts to age like say maybe 2 years down the road,you can never guess what is gonna happen.Many things many pop up .You will never know until u own one.

Nissan Latio

Damn smooth engine
Power ok ok lah
Very comfortable
Spacious and reliable
Toyota Vios

Damn blardy good fuel economy.Even if you rev the engine alot and drive like a maniac,it will still give u damn good FC.
Seats might be a bit uncomfortable depending on ur butt size.
Ride is excellent.
Pickup is great thanks to VVTI.
So in the end TS,depends on what brand u actually want to throw your money at.Of course Jap brands will give u reliability and no worries 5 years down the road.

If you want to be a brave person,get the FORTE.But dont blame anybody if the car gives problems later on.

I dun understand why buying Forte need to be a Brave Person??
No one will know how many years the cars can served us in good condition... U darn to said the T and H wont give u the problem after 3 years??
My friend received quotation from H brand and it cause RM23k for the gear box... that car just City... ( This is the common issue for the City 2003-2005)
This is the H service centre fault, but the H brand don't wan to replace the gb FOC due to after 3 years warranty... then wat to do??
Lets focus the servicing part, Who darn to say the H and T brand servicing is cheap?
Maybe the price consider is CHEAP for the owner, but it still depends on how u judge the car.
