jimmy, you from cyberjaya too? seem like there are quite a number of forte in cyberjaya, time for a small TT in cyberjaya.
2.85 for 9 years? That's freaking good, I wonder how low they can offer for 5 years. Too bad, I already got my car nearly a month, mid March start paying back to Public bank.
*
I got 2.95% for 4 years at Affin Bank. They are very very efficient, I am very surprised.

Hi guys, I've just collected my 1.6 SX 3 days ago from Rawang. The color is Metal Grey. I booked it in mid-December last year from Naza PJ.

The car is performing up to my expectation. I've no complain about it whatsoever. It's a delight to drive it. It's a HUGE difference from my previous Myvi 1.3. My favorite function of the car is definitely the shiftronic gear.
*
Metal Grey ? A cross between Titanium Silver and Metal Bronze ? tongue.gif

Scrolling function on the other hand isn't as useful as intended. The title text scrolls too slow and infrequent yet there's no option to speed them up. Nevertheless I don't really mind it as I'm more focused on the driving and enjoying the music rather than looking at scrolling text.

Speaking of music, what's the volume that people often use? I set it at 06 and it's already shaking my speakers and sometimes when playing bass-heavy songs I can even feel the plastic of the side panels vibrating.
*
I use the scrolling function quite often. It's really fast if you scroll with the knob below the 'Folder' button. I try not to put on high volume when I'm driving as it's really dangerous when you can't hear any honking. It's a different story when the car is stationary. tongue.gif . and esp. when I have MJ music on. BTW, I haven't even tested out the CD player b4. Using only USB all these while. Also curious about the sound proofing if we blast the volume from inside. I don't want to branded AH BENG by people outside... brows.gif

Which colour of forte is more sexy?

I like white colour car but judging from the photo, it looks like white forte does not look very sexy...
*
White is a great color if you are really 'rajin' in taking care of it. Otherwise, stick with Bright or Titanium Silver.

IS too bad , when i collect my new 1.6sx the mileage already 420km ,is it normal or anybody more than this mileage ?
  Pls share.....! unsure.gif
*
That's bad. Mine was only 10km when I collected mine. You should ask your SA why mileage is so high. Not that there is anything you can do now but at least grill him.

How to reject ah...? The guy told me is normal wow....or any other solution since the car has been taken cry.gif Any useful if I write in to complain....?
*
Normal my 'S' , u tell him. Complain to the dealer/branch and see if they give you a compensation otherwise tell them you will bring it up to Careline. I don't think you can reject now. Just pray for at least a cash rebate and most importantly, the car is in tip top condition.

Previously my dealer offered me ready stock Bright Silver with 100+ mileage on the day of booking. I told her nevermind, I rather wait.

Good luck !

according to him, they just get the alignment data yesterday (on Monday) from Naza Specialist from Setapak. and outside workshop still don't have the correct alignment data for forte. dunno if he is bullshitting me or not. but maybe just want to cut throat and take advantage from the situation. if really normal price for SC then pardon me lah. haha

Manager's name Steven right ? Have spoken to him b4 on the phone. Yes, very friendly. I will go there too as it's the nearest smile.gif BTW, I thought alignment is free?

guys, ghey and gals,
I've tested the headlights.

1) if the headlights or fog lamp is switch on (manually by turning the knob), then when u switch off your engine it will switched off also (once u open the driver's door it will off, before that the icon there still appear)

2) it will only remain ON if you turn the knob manually without starting the engine.
*
oops.gif My bad !. I tested out this morning . No problem! I must have accidentally turned ON the lights after I stop the engine. Two weeks already yet my hands still subconciously reach for the key when I want to get out of the car. heheheheh ! doh.gif

Everyone says the same . Spare parts very expensive, drink fuel like water etc etc... right in front of my face . I wanted to shut them up by saying " it's OK , I can afford it" .. but I didn't of cos. tongue.gif

Genting, my friend's Kancil went up Genting with 4 'not-so-thin' passengers. hahaha! But I didn't ask them how long the journey was. Or whether the 2 came out of the car and help push it up the hill. laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif
