if the 'upgrade' of the ex is true, for the same price, it shows naza has NOT learn, they are still undercutting their own clients by devaluing their cars that are not selling well..........yes, the ex is not selling well.........
*
it's disappointing to hear this kind of promotion... but it just shows that naza did not price the cars correctly because for an added 6k u'll have a lot of extra features... majority 1.6 buyers will buy sx version if not needing a car urgently... no doubt about it. sorry bro kfc tongue.gif

tat said lets hope 1.6sx can fetch a better resale value because of higher demand for it... it's still a class leader in terms of price

bro, just do it laugh.gif

btw, my k&n air filter just reached today, already fixed it into the car 1st thing after reaching home.
only brought the car jalan2 around my neighborhood but i can feel a bit of difference... the car feels 'lighter'... better pick up.

the k&n filter is quite thin actually... only about an inch thick. the stock filter is almost twice as thick.. hehe will keep the stock filter aside and pop it back in again when i go for 2nd service.. to keep SC mouth shut on warranty thingy... IF they wanna make noise about it la tongue.gif

They have K&N model for Forte ald?? Where u buy from?
*
yeah... got already... i think both 1.6 and 2.0 should be sharing the same part.
i got it shipped over to malaysia from singapore.

actually we planned to go for bulk order for either the k&n or the stainless steel filter back in v4, but plan kiv cause bro kfc wanted to try out the stainless steel. so i plan to test the k&n lo... can't wait cause my daily route lots of start stop jam, the car is quite heavy when want to move it from stationary. hope there's slight improvement from now on biggrin.gif

bro kfc, any updates on the stainless steel filter?

anyway just refill my forte with BHP 95 and can actually feel the different between Caltex and BHP.
well not sure whether it's some kind of placebo effect, but i do feel my ride was much more smoother and perform much better on highway...
anyway any1 else running on BHP95 here and sharing the same performance?  wink.gif btw not sure bout Petronas tho... and nvr will (boycotting it due to political reason  thumbup.gif )
*
hav not tried caltex b4... i prefer bhp / mobil than petronas... shell comes last biggrin.gif

Speaking about this, I am already fed-up trying to argue with ppl asking me "why Kia?"

Every time I say Forte, they start shaking their head...

I so lazy to argue, I just let them win and I just keep quiet most of the time...

Great News, FORTEzens!

Just received a call from the Management of Aircool / Oldboy Kopitiam and they have indicated that they'd like to extend to MyFORTE Club: Forte Owners Club Malaysia: 1 FREE cup of White Coffee for each member per dine in at Oldboy Kopitiam @ Bandar Puteri Puchong! Cool eh! And, they have offered to print & sponsor us the member's card too...provided that we have their logo on it.

Besides, maybe with this card we can look for more partners to offer some benefits to our members.

What do you all think?
*
that's cool bro!
saw the sticker design in FB. the sticker at C pillar side window is very nice.

but erm.... how big they want their logo to be there ar? hehe if got a few sponsors, all aligned below the my forte logo, should be very nice thumbup.gif

At the end of the day, it still depends on what one wants from a car. Some don't give a crap about occupants' comfort and just want a zippy ride; some prefer an all rounder; some want bang for buck; some just want a box with 4 wheels. As I always say, the various C segment rivals are more similar to each other than they are different - test drive them and pick the one that tickles your fancy.

i'll go for this anytime man... majority foreign carmakers r really sucking poor old malaysians here... with aid of big G of course tongue.gif

all my previous car has the pocket which is so convenient i can put alot of things inside...

on ebay this shit is crazy price which is USD54.99 + 14.99 shipment = RM250+-.
after i check i can bring the price down to RM180 inclusive shipment.

What is it function? sorry i really dunno this stuff
*
just to replace the stock air filter, for better air flow that will result in more efficient combustion.
because of the better combustion / burning of fuel, the car will 'feel' lighter when u step on the pedal...

tat's wat i understand la... pls correct if i'm wrong icon_rolleyes.gif
