FluidicSculpture bro... any news on the delay till March?

"Chicken White" !!!

dun tell me "March'12 " is true !!

March' 12? hmm.. in this case.. elantra won't be shortlisted by me already, mostly go for altis. hehe

Sorry was in KL haha. Wait till I go QBM i go see if the banner still there. No specific dates are given but its only stated end of 2011.

Oledi find around QBM except toilet still cant see the banner, who can tell it nearby where???

I previously found the banner on the 2nd floor, north wing (Maybank side). Its hanging across near digital match there at the walkway.

I went there again for lunch, dont see the banner there anymore .

means delay again? lol

HSDM - Hyundai Sure Delayed (in) Malaysia

Pity. Fine car, missing the plot with so many car buyers. By the time Msians get the car, very soon it would be up for a facelift lol...

Maybe overseas will have Elantra Turbo liao or Elantra SE by the time it reaches local shore....

HSDM is really lagging behind badly, lag anymore will be another business loss for them.

Its very rare for Malaysians to be almost "begging" for a car to be brought in into our country.

I call my SA just now. and he said elantra ETA on Dec 2011 with CKD and should expect lower price. is it true you can only get car make 2012 on June next year? any diff for resale if i reg the car 2012 for 2011 make car.

waiting so long already. haha

maybe they're trolling in forums and surveying market..

Actually the difference between current year and next year production car is only a few thousand, but you will need to keep the car for at least 3-5 years for the resale value to level out. One other point to consider, is that a 2011/2012 car (meaning made in 2011 but registered in 2012) will fetch a higher price than an early 2011/2011 car. There will be ppl prepared to pay more, they are not stupid like banks.

When choosing the time to sell, it's good to ask around on the financing packages available for your car at that time. Normally, cars 5yrs and below can fetch a better price simply because the prospective buyer is able to get a higher loan, lower interest and longer tenure. Above 5yrs, the value will experience a sharp drop to a new level to cater to existing demand. It's all about affordability of your prospective buyer.

If it's an existing model, booking from now until Dec 2011 is still ok, can nego for a better deal with your friendly SA so next time, even though you sell the car for less but you also paid less. But a brand new model with hot demand, most prolly no discounts on price and interest rates, plus fewer or no freebies. Less than 6 months your "new" car becomes last year's model already as what cybermaster mentioned.

Very silly to launch a new model at year end.

that's what we're afraid off.. after a year new fl launch with many goodies..

banner still there last week, if not mistaken from a nail polishing shop (or similar category).,

OMG.... delay again... I'm pissed.

forte forte forte.... Let me ask my friend who is working in SD when I got the chance to...

Get the Forte la

In the long run the Forte might be able to hold its value better due to its safer "Euro" design lol...
