sigh ... so divided now.

Went to Toyota showroom yest to look at the facelift Vios ...

As expected, the sales manager bashed Forte a lot - mainly on 2nd hand value and durablility after 5 yrs ... - many problems konon ..

Den he compared with Spectra 2nd value after 6 yrs only 11k .

Sigh ......

Haha... u want to put urself inside that car and show off to your friend "i got a new facelift vios with new exterior but old engine, old design dashboard, stupid speedometer in the middle and yet i can pay so much money on it." You can spend your money in better car bro. I am forte owner, sincerely i do feel city better than vios. If u doubt about forte i recommend city but not vios.

What about KIA SPECTRA ? Since Forte is like a replacement for SPECTRA ~
Just wanna compare  icon_rolleyes.gif

Forte replacement for spectra? Are you sure? How shud I explain it.
If forte is replacement for spectra, then it show how good and serious is KIA making a brilliant new car for us consumers. The passion and the power. Dunno how to explain. tongue.gif Haha...
Bro, y u so confused? Hear your heart. Test drive the car. Don't listen to others.
And those question u keep asking sound that either u so confused, or u just saja-saja give us question to answer. But u actually want to buy H @ T

Don't generalise. You were the one who started trolling here by posting "city more better " without any explanation why the City is a better car. Act like a kid and you shall be treated like one. 
Yes, test drive the Forte & the Vios before making your mind. It would be easier for us to provide specific answers should you have any questions after test driving it.

Some tips which may help during your test drive:
1. Sit in all seats, but focus more on the driver's side as you'll spend most time there.
2. Think about who else is using your car. If you need to ferry many people very often, interior space will be a huge factor.
3. Drive on different roads if possible - slow taman roads and fast highways. If possibly go for twisty roads where you can test for body roll during turning. Don't need to race like madman during test drive even though petrol is free. Treat the test drive the way you are going to use your car.
4. Off the radio and turn down the air-con. Some salespeople like to crank up the volume to overwhelm the noise of the engine strain/poor NVH.
5. Ask about service intervals, costs, and warranties.
6. If the salesperson offers freebies, make sure they print it out black and white on your invoice.

Hmmm..i cannot find it in the car manual, but could someone clarify on this matter, when i switch on the headlight, all the instrument buttons should lit up including the power window buttons (switches) right? i noticed that only both front power window buttons (driver & front passenger's side) lit up but not the rear buttons (both). Is it a common for all Fortes? The power window lock/unlock button & door lock/unlock button (at driver's door panel) also didn't lit up. Just wanna clarify whether it is a common or a defect? wink.gif

Went to SC today asking about hole/space between the chasis, they cant fix it, he said the cover too short. Maybe next service he will think of way to fix it. But it wont affect anything.

You mean the space or hole is it? I post before no one got the answer. And I ask SC here. It is due to cover too short. They still seeking the solution.
