Yup, I work in Dell, my car is metal bronze but not with K emblem, still Naza emblem, not going to change it, too expensive, doesn't feel worth the money, rather spend the money with a better tyre if needed.

You also work in Dell? I saw another Forte in here previously, I think it is Titanium silver color.

just now went to test-drive forte, overall is ok, but my parent and i felt that the seat is a bit low, and we went to test city and civic, the seat is higher than forte. Maybe we are too sensitive about the height of the seat as we are using innova now.

city is a slightly taller car, and the seats are a bit higher.......the civic seat is the same as forte.........low, but of course, there is some adjustment one can do with the driver seat..........

TQ bro n4tea. I will wait until end of this month..or early March the most. If still no confirm news about 2.0 delivery by that time, maybe Forte is not destined for me...

There is a dispute between UMW and a consumer body over a defect in some Toyota cars in the country .

The Consumer Association of Penang (CAP) says that is has detected faulty steering rack ends in at least two Vios models which cause the front wheels to go badly out of alignment.

But UMW Toyota Motor Sdn Bhd, the sole distributor of that brand, insists that it is not a manufacturing defect.

According to CAP president SM Mohamed Idris (left), in the first case, the steering rack end had bent upwards when the car started moving from a motionless position, while the other car's steering rack broke into two as the car stopped at a T-junction.

Both cars had covered 6,827 and 6,614 km respectively and cost RM1,752.55 and RM1,525.35 respectively to repair the defects.

UMW refused to accept responsibility for the faults, saying that they were caused by “an external impact to the front left tyre with sufficient force (which caused) the steering rack to bend backwards”.

Silent on inspection reports

They also maintained silence on inspection reports by Automobile Association of Malaysia (AAM) and Goodyear Marketing and Sales submitted by CAP.

Both reports found no sign of external impact or evidence that the vehicles were speeding.

“If the cars were traveling at cruising speed, (a defective steering rack) would result in the wheels going badly out of alignment or even coming loose.

Yet, Toyota had the gall to (tell us) that it does not gamble with the lives of its customers,” said Mohamed Idris in a press release.

He added that Toyota Japan has also evaded blame by placing the responsibility squarely on the shoulders of UMW.

“CAP calls on the Ministry of Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism and the Ministry of International Trade and Industry to conduct a full investigation into Toyota cars (and to) recall defective cars from our market,” he said.

The allegations come in the wake of worldwide recalls of seven Toyota models last year, including the Vios, for defects found in the accelerator and brake systems and power steering hose.

However, UMW issued a press statement on Feb 12 reassuring customers that Toyota Japan had cleared all models distributed in Malaysia of similar problems.

The distributor was unavailable for comment on the issue as their offices are closed until Feb 22 for Chinese New Year.

Forte owners dying to know how the car performs in 0-100kmh here's the data i collected this morning.
Auto mode its as stated in specs at least 12s but in manual mode it drops 1s (11s)
with some light mods we can drop it another 1s (10s), considered ok for a car weighing almost 1400kg!

was the shiftronic used in getting this?
