Hi Forte member's

I have reading the whole thread...and frankly speaking I love the car, I guess its bout time we need to give some credits to the Korea Carmaker. I have doubt feeling with Korean manufacture car...but when I saw the Forte, I just fall in love with it. I cant wait to purchase this beauty...need some help from you guys.

If anyone can recommend which dealer I can rely on, is much appreciated.

How long is the delivery waiting period for the 1.6SX model?

Which colour is best looking one's.....anyone can show me their red spicy model...kinda interest with it...

Hope you guys can give me some advice...

cheers

History
- Daily task reporting in LYN & AW daily following news on Forte for weeks.
- Check out the Forte 1 day before Launching at the showroom
- Booked the 2.0SX on the Launching Day paying RM2000 booking fees, SA saying car will be available in December.
- Overjoyed that its finally here and I am the 2nd person booking in that dealer branch meant when they have the car with matching color.. I am the first / second to get it.
- Followed by anxious and frustration for the next 1 month of wait, call, disappointment, uncertainty... and depress. ( I am the type of person that do not like to wait long for things that I am buying )
- Finally decided to cancel the booking on Dec 23rd after SA and Carelines telling no 2.0SX in coming 6 months time.
- followed by mixed feeling after cancellation for the whole week especially numerous rumors / sources stating starts delivery in Jan 2010, car is at PK.. and also.. hopes as SA promised as long as I didn't collect my refund check, I can still get the car when they are available for delivery.

5 mins ago, my phone rang and for the first time, I saw my SA's name appear on the caller ID ... what came across my mind is the car is Here !!. And from the phone.. he is telling me that I can come and collect now. When I asked him collect car ? he said.. nope, your refundable booking fees cheque is ready.

So.... Officially Bye Bye to Forte. I shall missed you especially when I bump onto one on the road, in the parking lot in future thinking.. I am that close to own one myself.

Hopefullylah bro bbear & i'm praying  hard now for my 2.0 Forte. Sorry to hear that u already gave up the Forte. & yupp..nice to look at all those cars at the same spot, same time. Can make better comparison. Besides Sylphy Impul, the new Lancer GTS also attracted me so much. hmm..see howlah later.

Actually i'm hoping that Naza-Kia will exhibit Forte 2.0 at that exhibition so i can thoroughly look at it again, but unlucky me..only Forte 1.6SX & Picanto were there. By the way, VW Passat & Scirocco also there. Very5 nice car indeed..but when look at the price..way out of my reach..hehe  whistling.gif

from the way u put it, u r still very much into Forte, hope u will finally settled down with Forte.. Dun want to consider 1.6SX mehh?

Spot the poison  tongue.gif  ... bought the ash tray from http://www.kspec.com/ (please prepare to be poisoned if you click on the link hehehe) and also added the non slip mat at the ipod/charger compartment (thanks for bbear's advice, i put a plastic below the non slip mat just in case it sticks on it and leaves marks later) and lastly the custom cut car mat biggrin.gif

[attachmentid=1391729]

Bought the door pockets from the same online shop (cheapest online) and sprayed it with matt black spray (the original colour was very bright silver that doesn't match the interior, unless u like blig blig colours  tongue.gif )

[attachmentid=1391734]

[attachmentid=1391735]

As I have taken a few photos on spraying the door pockets, if anyone is interested, i will come up with the DIY instructions ... i thought it was easy, but a few things to take note as the pockets can easily fall and you need to use sandpaper (1200) to smoothen the defective paint.
*
4te, how much is the custom cut car mat? where can get in KL? it looks nice.
door pocket, not so interested, i like holding the door handle a lot tongue.gif
hmm... the ash try turn rubbish bin, quite a good idea, cos Forte doesn't come with it.. hmm.gif

aiyo... remove lah the plastic cover on the 'seatbelt lock' (dunno what it called blush.gif )

Guys , i booked my forte last month ..but my wife ask me to change it to Honda City  which is belief to be more reliable, resale value...cheaper spare part price..etc..
wat u guys think?
*
she's being brand conscious... but tell you what, most people here are having new faith with Kia, simply due to FORTE!
When I was considering this Kia, the only question my hubby asked was, "are you brand conscious? if not, just go for it, cause it is a real value for money purchase."
