NOTE TO ALL NEW OWNERS
1ST THING TO DO AFTER COLLECT YOUR FORTE:
DO NOT DRIVE OUTSTATION 1ST GO STRAIGHT TO THE NEAREST PETROL STATION & PUMP YOUR TIRES TO 32PSI....

CAUSE THEY WILL OVERPUMP YOURS IN STOCKYARD AT 50PSI

VERY DANGEROUS IF U DRIVE LONG DISTANCES WITH 50PSI

REMEMBER OK!

*
so nice of you KFC..
also if u want to do coating on your car remind ur SA DO NOT polish your car...

remind him again when he want to deliver the car for u..
for my case they polished.. and when send to do coating..
full of f***ing polish marks... now only can recover 80% due to my blackie is more obvious...

QUOTE(toytoy @ Feb 2 2010, 03:12 PM)
If tyre are 50psi and we pump it with 32psi, it will automatically regulate itself to 32psi? or we have to let out all the air b4 pumping in?

Also, i read from somewhere it is better to put 32psi front (coz of engine) and 30psi back, is that true?

Thanks biggrin.gif

Haha really can form ss17 team, we go to the showroom and sit everyday until we get our car lah hehehe.

Anyway, if got good news must post here, then i can go place my booking liao. Syok if can get car next week hehehe.
*
yup.. the air pumping system will auto adjust to 32psi.

3-4 months should be the waiting period for new buyer.
how true is that? if they can start allocating and make delivery.. i believe the waiting period should be shorten.. 2 months?

came back from my SA there, paid my remaining d/p. Asked the branch manager, still very confident, car will be out b4 CNY. Then talk to my SA, also very confident, car will be out b4 CNY.

He mentioned, HQ is doing allocation, once car allocated, JPJ registration takes 2 days only, Friday or Monday or early next week can get car.

Ask me to trust him.

guys,

just call to careline and they informt that all those pending registration and hold by Custom is only 1.6.....
no 2.0 at all..... that means that no 2.0 yet!! Careline said that actually they still waiting from KIA MOTOR KOREA for the 2.0 car......
so we will not get the car b4 CNYE!!!!!

what the fu*k!!! mad.gif
*
for those who can't get the car deliver.. feel so sorry..
why don't you guy treat it as like buying lancer gt or other hot model..
some previous comment also saying lancer gt need to wait up to 7 months for delivery..
give a deadline for forte.. says few months as they mentioned.. if still can't deliver only cancel ur order..
i know is tough during the waiting period.. but forte is really a good car and worth for the wait.
once naza can clear the path then they would only dare to promise a real estimated delivery date.

it actually increase a few HP and better torque for ur car.

QUOTE(JoLee @ Feb 3 2010, 02:50 PM)
I called the Careline about 10 minutes ago and spoke to someone in charge of 2.0 and he says can't get before New Year.

I walked to the Branch and spoke to Branch Manager and downgrade to 1.6 liao. He told me he will try to allocate one to me but I guess this is sales man talk. Bye bye 2.0 or bye bye kia if no update in 1-2 days time. Branch Manager says will know 1-2 days.

good move.. the only option can give u hope of driving it ASAP.

QUOTE(Perryyip @ Feb 3 2010, 03:05 PM)
Whenever Singaporean make a complain, they straight write to Kia Korea, and i heard Kia Korea will push CNC. So we can actually do that as well, everyone can write to Kia Korea regarding the issue and ask them to push Naza. Tell them, we all will cancel the booking if there is no firm infor on our car instead giving false info everytime. Our patient now with Naza is limited.
*
can try la... at least give some pressure to Naza.

QUOTE(kiaforteclub @ Feb 3 2010, 03:17 PM)
if the problem is not with NazaKia then how???? can be KIA also no car to give cause too many orders worldwide or gov side kacau? then how? if we have soooooo much power we would had changed the whole country to a very keng chau country and not sit around complain kns....... cars cheap petrol cheap house cheap every thing 1st class .... ok lets form our own Political Party -  Party Cinta Forte Malaysia PCFM - ?????

tender no. for new car canot put in old car... so you need to buy a brand new kapcai and register into it and then transfer to your old car..
it will cost you RM1.5k for that.

Maybe true..maybe not. My excitement in getting the 2.0 Forte is almost gone. Getting fed up & frustrated from day to day now. Maybe in 2-3 weeks time, i need to reconsider my Forte purchase if still cannot get my 2.0. i cannot tahan already riding my kapcai everyday for more than 2 months.

What do you think 175k is to NAZA? This is a completely useless act and will just make them laugh back at you.

i can say is the only true competitor for forte.

QUOTE(0hmyg0d @ Feb 3 2010, 05:34 PM)
KF, you wont understand as u got ur car within 2 weeks..
v know avanza, civicm lancer even persona have to wait several months..
but y ppl dun complain or even make a single noise? all of these have to do wif consumer behaviour..
and practically a company can control consumer behaviour..

honda toyota or even proton tells their customers the maximum duration they have to wait to get their cars..
but what about naza kia?
personally i booked b4 the launch and i got informed that i can get my car within 2 weeks after the launch..
u will probably ask where i got this info from.. i got it from melaka branch and dealer as well as KL 1..

so ends up what i get?
given them the 2nd chance, say end of january.. again ends up what happen.?

no offence KF, i hope u dun be too bias against those hu r making noise and haven get their cars..
if u dun believe what the evidence, i got all my conversation wif careline recorded..
so, these are not anything that simply said by me..
*
OMG.. that's why now Naza change their way of informing customer... want a Forte? please wait 3-6 months. thank you.

QUOTE(andreslck @ Feb 3 2010, 05:42 PM)
not going to blame anyone...
Naza- Want biz but cannot release car...not willing to pay more to settle current issue. Hanging halfway make customer geram.

SA- Their promise is quite reasonable if we look back, the 2nd batch has arrived since Jan. They may be thought everything smooth...who know he next one come..
Kastam- Cannot comment scare kena ISA.

Only 3 parties that possible cause the delay...CAR IS HERE and yet not ready to register. Who to blame?
*
u r right.. Naza PAID for the car and now his cash was stuck in stock yard...
comparing buyers who just put d/payment.. also canot fight with their lost.
if they want to sell their car fast and satisfy the buyer and saving their so called "naza" name..
only way is subsidy the tax and making "lost" margin for 2nd batch buyer and no choice to increase 3rd batch price.
which i doubt they will do that.. they are traditional malaysia businessman.. u think japan or any other country that looks very high to their brand name meh...

QUOTE(toytoy @ Feb 3 2010, 10:07 PM)
forte 2.0 is 156hp and it is 1hp higher than 2.0 civic.

Although this has no meaning and I can't say it's more powerful than civic but I've test driven both avante and civic and avante is nowhere near civic.

dont' forget civic got vtec... and famous in providing performance feeling...
even forte might also hard to fight with civic 2.0 le..

Some one in the cari forum write to the Kia HQ and result is the regional sales manager return call and settle the car with him.
Anyone want to try? Perhaps one representor and we drop in our name...If still no news today, cny drive forte dream is gone. FYI, all the big trucks movement will stopped next wednesday. Meaning no more forte ship to u if still at stockyard :-)

will it be a good move to write letter to Kia HQ?
1) the delay issue is really because of Naza? or the G?
2) if Kia really thinks that Naza holding too many brand.. and now they turn to new distributor which price might not as good as AP king can provide.

but after that will it benefits us? hike of price with better management VS low price with poor delivery timeline..

QUOTE(x5m5 @ Feb 4 2010, 11:35 AM)
Just talked to the staff in the branch, the HQ still has not allocate the cars, even the branch manager is piss off with them.
I can trust this manager when I booked my car at the beginning of Jan, he sincerely said that the delivery only before CNY. I think now he's under tremendous pressure to keep his promises to the customers.
Blame only the Naza mannagement and those SA who over promised just want to get sale.
I am keeping my finger cross that the car can be deliver before CNY.
Don't worry, enjoy the CNY first, then the Forte.

again no point to blame anyone before we can find out the real fact behind the story.

QUOTE(miet @ Feb 4 2010, 12:14 PM)
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
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:-

Share something with you guys here..
I was turn down the deal for this Forte before, and wrote a very long complaint letter to their HQ and at the same day...received several call from their HQ Regional Sales manager, and also their customer services manager to check out what is going on with my case..therefore I explained..
after all, they help me to settle all the loose end and put all the thing, procedure right..

some info given by them, that why Forte is still not able to deliver, also confirm from the used car dealer which has very close connection to Naza and also our good friend Kastam officer..
that, Naza actually already sent all the documents to the Kastam office to clear all the tax, duty and staff..but , our good friend here sitting on top of it by doing nothing... Naxx also given some " good package" to our good officer to clear thing faster..but still no news..

Naxx management cant do anything as well by just keep on pushing our good officer to clear the document ASAP...not AS SLOW AS POSSIBLE..

Naxx top management said, today they will have news from the officer on how our forte doing..~~

cheers..

your post will bright all the forte future owners day... rclxms.gif
