thanx a lot for the info.

Time to buy Forte for your wife

FC depends on your right foot. Technology can only help reduce FC to a certain extent, but if you race like Mad Max any car will kill your wallet when you're at the pump. All C-segment rivals drink pretty much similar amounts of fuel, at least on paper.

The best answer on whether 1.6 or 2.0 depends on what you need, and what you can afford. There's no doubt that the 2.0 SX is better packaged (larger engine, leather seats etc), but the extra costs means you'll need to fork out more every month and if you're taking loans, more interest repayment.

Test drive both of them and see which one tickles your fancy.

Hey guys,
When your car is idling, do you hear 'chik chik chik' from under your car? Something like cricket sound. Damn annoying. Can even hear from inside the car.

aiyoooo...no V5 lagi ke??? Forte oh Forte...

i read a lot in this forum say tht 1.6 is underpower. underpower is subjective. can somebody verify this from xprience, not just figures on paper? is it underpower compared to 2.0? or underpower compared to same cc engine (i.e. vios, city, persona)? or underpower compared to lower class engine (i.e. myvi, new saga)? i think many potential buyer want to know bout this...

normal one ahh.. but not so frequent. can say intermittent.


that's why... should have V5 by now..

cannot compare vios and city ler as those cars 1.5, ours 1.6. persona can ler.
for me used to drive vios.. when get forte at first a bit underpower when driving up on hilly road.
but now no problem already. know how to handle road situation properly.

Hi bros,

I'm interested in getting the Forte, any recommendation which particular branch has better SA? I'm from Subang, so nearest is either SS17 or Mentari branch.

Actually leaning towards the 2.0, but worry the waiting list is too long...and comment from all the experience bro here May downgrade to 1.6SX, but don't want to wait for 3 months

Haha, SA just call me, loan approved! tomoro going to sign all the document and pay all the payment and choose car!!! he so secret about the car color.....must be not much color left ready stock.....hopefully have the color i want ready stock.

will the SA buy car plate number for me.....hmmmm.....?

Yup.. Why pay more? If ppl critic/ concern about resale value.. PUT in this way,

Jap cars are selling over value.. U can get a 2.0 at RM 93,800.. But.. u need to pay ADDITIONAL RM 36.2k to get a Civic which is also a 2.0 CC.. Somemore less horse power & less features..

So 5 years down the road for the resale value.. A Civic owner think that he is smart when he can sell with better price then Forte.. Think again, what is so happy about? As, don't forget that u pay ADDITIONAL 32k o get the 2.0 Car.. So now, U just get back what u have pay EXTRA.. And if you think carefully, u make a lost in term of 32k extra's bank interest for the pass 5 years..

SO, Why pay more ??

Go for Mr Gan from SS17, I purchased my car from him. Highly recommended. Btw , Titarium bro can add me in the list, 1.6SX Metal Bronze.

RM10K

I think forte is one of the car (that I can afford obviously) that I really like. Now contemplating between 407 or this.
Any poison from forte's fan?

Raymond from ShineNShield just called to confirm the date for PPS, next monday i booked, the slot for weekend is fully booked until 27 Mar according to him... so i will do it on weekday, but have to go work after park my car there. Who is pps on monday or when your going to PPS your car, those that booked.?

any1 drove 2.0L here oredi?

forte is heavy than many 1.6L cars in the road hence slow pickup
but better than spectra5 pick up
