SHARK FIN ANTENNA!!! ... thats really cool ... any idea how much does it cost including installation?

a big If .. cause I am still in the dilemma if to cancel my 2.0SX order this week.

If my research found that by spending < RM5k can do all the sound proofing, auto foam, paint protection / glows / security & heat tint ... then it is a good saving by not canceling the Forte booking by buying a Peugeot 308 Turbo.

The bit thing is also.. is it worth to spend those money.. and if they can solve the noisy cabin that I do not like on the Forte.

I knew.. either car i get will need to do the paint protection and tinting... but do not need to removes so many car's parts and panels which will potential introduce more problem / void the warranty.

My SA called me saying there will be 530 unit of 1.6 Forte to be delivered in Jan 2010. No 2.0 forte delievery news yet.

Looks like what I been told by my Nasim's SA is real.. that he told me. 2.0SX will only available after local assembly line is up as the government does not allow those CBU 2.0SX selling price.

My Nasim's SA called Gurun's plant to ask about Forte 2.0SX because I told him I will change to Peugeot if I still cannot get updates on the Forte's delivery.. i guess he is desperate and call the Gurun to ask about Forte even he is selling Peugeot

so the pre ordered 2.0 will be either use in Langkawi , Labuan or as show room units ....

For selling only CKD units ?

Guys and Gals.. I think my wait is over.. just got off from the Care Line.. the latest update from Careline

Mr. Umbran :
Estimate delivery for the Forte 2.0SX is in six month time. ( I told him I am not taking new order buy follow up on booking placed in November ). I am still been inform, the "Scheduled mass production" for the Forte 2.0SX can only delivers in 6 month time. ( Mr. Umbran saying there are NO Forte 2.0 )

I called again, this time Ms. Ain :
Estimate delivery for the Forte 2.0SX starting January after they have allocates enough test drive unit to customer.

I reluctant to make the 3rd call to hear from what the next care line agent going to tell me.

There are many version of 2.0sx status. At least Ms Ain is consistently telling 2.0 will be in malaysia by Jan 2010. Let's wait and see what will happen in Jan 2010. If six months waiting time. I will cancel my 2.0SX order.

Too bad we are not in a strong position to demand for a solid updates or we will all cancel orders..

Also from other brand.. like TCM is previously offering RM1k discount for each month that are overdue for delivery... i.e. if the car is delivered with 4 months late.. RM4k discount will be given when the car is available..

Lol...that is a bad news. But i guess that is the time when they will reduce 6 air bags become two, remove this and that to reduce the price.

really WTF.

If it is 6 months I am also keen to cancel as it is way too long to wait for a car.

As for TCM I think there is a maximum discount of RM2k for the delay only. Looks like might have to consider Sylphy and it cost more $$. On the other hand the inbuilt GPS looks good but for RM3.5k is a rip off.

I don't know why.. it made me felt like similar scenario will surfaces when there are problem on warranty.. calling carelines.. Agent A will tell one story, Agent B will tell another story.. then SC 1 will practice this.. and SC 2 will practice that.

I knew that is not the problem of the car or probably not even is Kia's problem but the Naza problem ( which if i moved to the other brand also is under Naza )

Buying car suppose to be fun, exciting.. with something looking forward to.. but all these while is only frustration. Maybe a hint on it is not the car for me after all.

envy those that got their 1.6 on the road.. enjoying their new partners.

uwaaaaa.......

Guys,

let's wait till mid/end of Jan. If there is still no car, or confirm bad news for 2.0(SX), we cancel together.

Leave them speechless...We are here to support the brand, and yet everything is not firmed then no point waiting.

Agree. let's wait until mid of Jan.

Agree with you. I kind of share the same feeling with bbear as I am more concern about Naza's ability to honour its commitment. If Kia was distributed by Sime Darby I would have no hessititation of buying it.

How I wish the Hyundai I30 didnt cost that much and it was a sedan?

well with the kind of experience that u r having only for purchasing a car, which is supposed to be giving business to these ppl, i'm worried on the after sales support even though i've gotten the car.

hmm...

Thats why, we need to speak with once voice. Especially, when there are defect in cars that they delay fixing.. we need to 'band' together and 'tembak' them properly.. this will also help them improve their Services.

Me too..the fact that i already got no car to drive around for almost a month & to wait for another 6 more months, i better opt for Sylphy then
Anyway..I will meet my SA next week for a confirmation first. Hopefully my SA will have concrete answer by next week

If they cares about improvement .. looks at P1. Kena tembak so many years... You can see they already have huge improvement.. really can see the effort and R&D they spent .... in bullet proof technologies .. so that no more worries kena tembak anymore

apology for the side track.. off topics. I really don't have much to talk about Forte since I failed to own one.
