Hi! Bro bbear,
Just back to KL yesterday!
Are you mean AM in the Melaka?
Because I driving White Forte with 'KIA' emblem and same plate no as you write and driving at Melaka on 17-18/2 and 15-16 at Seremban to Pahang.
-------------------------------------------
Just for sharing to all,
I driving from Triang, Pahang -> Tengkera, Melaka -> 2 days Town visit, Melaka -> Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Total distance Trip A: 400KM, DTE: 220km, Average: 7l/100km.
I found that the Average become very good during consistence driving around 70-80km/h at normal road from Pahang to Melaka, around 6.4l/100km.

In my opinion, I found BHP fuel is best for Forte in term of power & fuel consumption after tried Caltex, Esso, Shell. 

In last, wishing all new Forte owner 'Happy Driving' and enjoy your 'Forte Roadshow' to other!!!

Dude, you from Seremban too? Want to have a TT? I got my Forte from the Kia Seremban, ready stock, booked Monday got car at Friday, recommended to those who need car asap.

mine 10k ler dont worry going to reach very fast hahaha
tmr another long distance run......... PIKES PEAK!

Yup bro, i am Penang Forte Kaki ... actually they didnt take out the door panel but just the top rubber part, the tweeter, the rear mirror and the third break light panel when installing. If you are interested in Security + Heat Rejection tint and dont mind doing it Butterworth, then i would recommend you Wingard Royale (highest range), JPJ compliance, GPS & Smart Tag friendly, and not to mention that they offer 10 years warranty, which only cost slightly more than some other brands with 5 years warranty (will PM you the special price for Forte members here). The workmanship is good, no bubble or rattling sound ... bro bbear did his 407 tint there too  

What i like the tint most is the head rejection of Wingard Royale (side and back) and also the colour (slightly dark and non-metallic). We can meet and I can show you the tint and other poisons if you want to

wow... which brch? make me 'gatal' to downgrade to 1.6... huhuhu...

ya... waiting for cheaper BK~

my friends asking which car currently have push start besides Forte.
i really dont know...

He said Audi?

nobody can help you because nobody knows..........

in fact, nobody has even got the 2.0, and thus we are not even sure the price we book will still be applicable........

guys, where can do paint protection in penang? whats the different btween sieraglow and s&s (quality, price)? thx

2k for any coating is a RIP OFF lar! to assume paintwork to last long in Msia is daydreaming. 1 week on road lots of holes here & there already. Ads are just that banyak claims can this that lo.....

My bad, didn't ask properly, I know the difference, I mean does it do any good or bad to the engine?

A dumb question, before I book the car, it says there is an active headrest, when I check the manual, it says can be push or pull 3 directions but I can't figure out how to do it. Is active headrest only apply to 2.0?

Wah Bro KFC... long long explanation.. but i only understand 70% =.=

I agree with you, zero support for neck ... my friends commented on that too ... but i think thats the safety feature or something.

off topic, anyone here sell your old car and face problem due to puspakom? i need to change my saga to my brother's name, puspakom said the tinted not pass, although i got the warranty from the shop and they said will cover everything but is there any other suggestion? need to settle it fast.

hi, just to share my exp with u all.

I booked my 1.6sx on 27/11/2009
Car arrived at dealer on 14/01/2010, got my chasis number.
After 1 week lodge an official complaint with them.
Call careline, fake promises after fake promises but until 3/2/2010 car still cannot register.
Then called them for the last time and give dateline until 12/12/2010 before noon and tell them if by that date yr car cannot register; you will
1) Go to press with statement " NAZA tipu pembeli, dapat kereta tak boleh daftar"
2) Appoint lawyer and send them notice of demand (NOD) asking them to pay RM100 daily for your lost of transport, depress, etc....(lawyer know what to do) till the day you receive your car.
3) CC your NOD to SPRM, Bank Negara, your finance comp, dealer/branch you booked the car, tribunal pengguna.
4) Make a police report on your deposit given to them...details, your lawyer know what to do.

Finally,  I received my car on 12/02/2010 exactly at 11.30am complete with registration, plate number and grant.

But after you get your car, you wont regret of owing one....hehehe......
Hope you will get yours soon.....

they install the security film at the back also.. the front one makes me dizzy.. some wavy area... straight lines will look like wavy... izzit defect or natural? coz i nv did tinting for my previous car b4.. i dunno about tis.

probably just wait for a week or two... put it under hot sun... could just be the water...

i thought it will be easier to break from the inside compare it from the outside?

Yeah sure, when want TT hehe
yes.. its optical lines....

U mean the TCS (traction control)? So far not yet, not able to find a safe spot with that kind of surface + plenty of water... lol
I think by finding a beach and perform all those stuns there will be more easier
