Hey, don't believe in what the salesman tell you. All are rumours only and there is no confirmation on which variant, price and launching date. I asked my friend who work for Hyundai Sime Darby Glenmarie office and he said that there is no indication yet, although they still hope to bring it in earlier than Q3. So, the best bet by all the salesman would be Q3.

He said that if there is a training in Feb or March then the car arrival/launching date in Malaysia should be quite soon. I will update you guys once I get any updates ya...

please do bro...

Oh cool man...thanks bro

Salute fr the Avante 2011 design~!

If the new civic 2012 concept (just announced in Detroit) really going to be this, i think Avante design already ahead one of her competitor...



Really admired every angle of Avante! Beautifully wind crafted concept.

That Civic is the old body with new front and rear, that should not be called new Civic at all, I'll only call this FL. Honda is getting boring nowadays with their design.

I agree on the design... Avante beat Civic many times... Civic facelift is so ugly... I think the current one looks better...

this or Mazda 3 2.0?

It's true, the new FL Forte and Hyundai Avante 2011 won't have GDi Engine, but got 6 spd auto and other features. y?? Coz malaysian fuel might destroy the engine itself. Even with current Forte engine, in RON97 also plenty of engine knocking and jerking. The only solution is V-Power Racing, which is the 1 and only RON100 fuel. If juz government can put this VPR in every cities, i guess GDi won't have problem reaching here...

Forte using RON95 the engine will get knocking and jerking??? That's sound weird!!! I thought Forte minimum requirement for petrol is RON92, so Ron95 should be no problem.

Might be so, but that's the problem. Even I went to Korean KIA workshop, they said the samething...is about the problem with fuel.
So, I guess, minimum RON95, but also will suffer engine knocking and jerking. At least RON97 won't have engine knock, but still have jerking issues...happen at my Forte driving at 40-43km/h..

+1

hehe..since when the v power racing is ron100 in our shore? =P perhaps u got the wrong info. There is no way we can taste the feel of ron100 fuel in malaysia..

Hyundai are coming out with better car , better exterior look .. I hope the hyundai market in Malaysia can be at par with the Honda & Toyota

don't think so is RON100. Wikipedia sources should take with a pinch of salt. Even shell website also mention "minimum RON97". If it's RON100, surely they will boast RON100

Winding road magazine

Go to 2nd page content page and click on page 79... Good review...

Haha! Toyota even more boring la! But then again, Toyota always has a market, because they know the more mature generation will prefer something the looks the age.

how much at least my salary and bank statement to buy this car? i wan to buy without guarantor...tq

I think at least you need to have a basic salary of RM4K and above plus RM30K cash in hand for downpayment and remaining for emergency use! My calculation, maybe some people got less salary and cash in hand, still able to buy.
