KFC,

The mail may not helps me but may helps other poor souls out there whom are potential Forte owner. At least a feedback .. whether they take it as constructive feedback or just ignore is another story. Btw, I already sent my mail tongue.gif

dont' forget civic got vtec... and famous in providing performance feeling...
even forte might also hard to fight with civic 2.0 le..
then you can go for china 408~ hehehe
*
Yeah, civic 2.0 has the vtec power (exclude 1.8 civic).
My colleague's 2.0 old sonata push to the limit is 220km/h while civic from behind can easily overtake him with ease.
I think that civic 2.0 was at 250km/h...
Nevertheless, who cares? I buy forte 2.0 not for racing, I want the feel of power but not racing.. icon_rolleyes.gif

ToyToy,

I have already wanted to reply the first time you mentioned this. Since you repeated it, The 407 seems likes what suitable for you  sweat.gif besides the Forte.
*
It's good to opt for 407 if within budget, cause 407 will only be replaced by 508 somewhere in 2011.
the newly launched 408 in china is C segment car...the look not bad eeither.

enjoy the pics of 408:-

if based on phelix's part number, here it is:

Part 33-2380 Product Specifications
Product Style: Panel Air Filter
Height: 1 in (25 mm)
Outside Length: 8 in (203 mm)
Outside Width: 7.5 in (191 mm)
Filter Re-Oiling Amount: 0.73 oz (21 ml)
Weight: 0.9 lb (0.4 kg)
Product Box Length: 7.72 in (196 mm)
Product Box Width: 1.75 in (44 mm)
Product Box Height: 9.69 in (246 mm)

but from the vehicle application list, forte 1.6 is not there... minimum forte engine size is 2.0 (US no forte 1.6 anyway)... ours still can use?
*
Many Singaporean Forte 1.6 owners are using the same filter and without any problem. So i guess should be ok.

Looks like a big hinting for the price hike.. and surprisingly inline with what our Mr Rich is stating in his encrypted messages. I wonder what is the added on options... 5 speeds Manual will be great  thumbup.gif
*
No lah bro ... i think should be mud guards, door visors and for standard and leather seats and BK for Novus version with even higher price ... or maybe the will just throw in 5 years warranty to justify the price increase ... feature wise, Forte 1.6SX and 2.0SX have almost everything already and I dont think they will add on something which costs more e.g. electronic foldable side mirrors, 5 speeds gear, etc ... I really hope that they will give electronic foldable side mirrors cos we can definitely buy and add on at SC if they are offering that to the new buyers smile.gif

If you are getting that one, must make sure that i can fit Forte's roof ... cos Forte's roof its a bit curve at the end (near rear windscreen), so it might not stick properly and there might be a gap at the end area.

Its best to wait for awhile and see if the 1st batch of 2.0SX comes with sharfin antenna and get the original one that fits perfectly brows.gif

No need to be so positive guys (act to), quite confirm b4 cny cannot get one already. Unless today SA said your car is ready :-)

Shark fin Antena- count me in if anyone of you got source (bulk buy) the original one look like waja :-s

Autolock/ pedal lock- Sorry to inform that not yet have the model for forte. Also sourcing now...I saw my friend city install this. Very gd, another layer of protection (i lose my car last 2 months, prevention always better than cure)


Added on February 4, 2010, 1:02 pm3 items to source now.
a) Antenna
b) Pedal lock
c) K&N filter
