Expected la bro... The delay is always there... and by the time the car is delivered to you, it will be 2012 dy...

The 1.6 will be a Gamma unit, which belongs to the same family as the Forte 1.6's engine but the new Elantra will come with Dual CVVT instead of CVVT on Forte... So the output is slightly higher than the Forte's unit and can expect better fuel economy... The 1.8 is an all new Nu series engine with Dual CVVT... This engine is the same as the one in US and it promises class leading output and fuel economy. rclxms.gif

I doubt the statement for 1.6. Maybe they have change, but as I know the 1.6's engine in malaysia will be the same as Forte.

a quick look at motortrader..i found this model is up for sale

http://www.motortrader.com.my/Cars/Buying/...40a669ca7&css=y

for RM69,500

then i look for new price which is http://www.motortrader.com.my/cars/new/naza/forte.aspx
new price is RM85,800.

over one year only, a reduction of almost rm16k...this is almost 20% from the original price in just 1 year..

now somebody tell me is this a good resale value?

What you said is true, every car has it flaw. Even conti cars has gearbox issue. Buying a car is like buying a lottery ticket. I would trust Hyundai more in this case, as i have personal experience with it.

I do not mean KIA is all bad, had a neighbour who bought 2 Forte and 1 Forte Koup, when asked about his car, he mention there is no issue. Very good. It is all luck i suppose.

Just mine tend to be worst from the rest. I would trust a brand i used better.

Hehe... it is just you never heard the previous avante speed can just drop to '0' while speeding on a highway.... One of the forumer experience this...
He was speeding on the highway and when the speed just drop to '0'... If not lucky, he is dead now... Buying a car is really luck la... they are ppl who bought faulty volkswagon too... What say you? smile.gif
