QUOTE(MangO @ Dec 10 2010, 03:13 PM) Very nice to see it face to face. Love the design and interior is spacious. If the engine provided for our market is good they have a winning combination on their hands. Took some rear seat shots but could not open the boot because the model was blocking the driver side. We will need the power of our imagination for that. Hope my shots turned out well. Didn't manage to run through as I took approx 800 pics that day. Wah... Another kiasu on the block... hehehe... just joking... Most likely the engine and gearbox will be the same. You should have kick the model down the water. Hehe... So, you didn't manage to sit on the driver seat? Such a waste lei... |

QUOTE(MangO @ Dec 10 2010, 04:06 PM) Yup. Was one of those wannabe kiasu people. But skill was so low so have to take a few pics of the same thing  To be honest I wanted to kick the model down the water and molest the car but I might get killed by the other 10 photographers. No I didn't sit on the drivers seat but I sat on the back and the passenger but got a good look and feel of the car. If I managed to sit on the drivers seat the model might thing I am staring at her  and I get kicked out for harassment. Haha... I felt the model is very 'chor teng' hahaha... The model all covered up ma... nothing to see also. The car is very very comfortable I would say. Now is to find out about the performance lor...  |

Somebody commented this on paul tan's blog about civic. As expected, the pick up would be slow like the current avante.  But still the luxirious space is the main factor for the car. QUOTE Whynot says:

Just came back from South Korea. Touched and seated on the Hyundai’s AVANTE! Its a good feeling and power is average but gets quite fast in highways. The only down side is the speed from 0-100km/hr. Overall it is a fuel saver and I may say it is good enough here in Malaysia! Source: Paul Tan.orgThis post has been edited by yeowa: Dec 14 2010, 12:44 PM |

QUOTE(lunateck @ Dec 14 2010, 12:49 PM) I hope the new design is not the ones that we saw just a few weeks before. Yuck! The concept drawing there looks to be like a shooting brakes design. You are referring to civic right? Hahaha... The spyshot design really sucks... |

QUOTE(dstl1128 @ Dec 15 2010, 11:08 AM) Even 20k cheaper I would think twice. According to Paultan report, the new Avante has only 14.2km/L on the highway. That is very poor efficiency for a new car. How about Myvi? My Myvi gets about 11.6km/L on city driving. That's why to me, the fuel consumption is better than my Myvi. |

QUOTE(stinger82 @ Dec 15 2010, 03:58 PM) not many car can do better than 12km/liter in CITY driving. 2 liter car if can get 10km/liter in city, is damn good. usually is 7km-8km if you buy rm100k car, and still look at FC, then, better save the money. Myvi only rm50k. you can keep the RM50k and pump fuel for the rest of your life imho. even 2 liter civic is not doing well in city driving. but then, if one can afford rm130k, one wouldnt care too much about FC anyway. I was trying to say, the new avante fuel consumption is not too bad to me. |

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... |

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

QUOTE(W.ROOK @ Jan 21 2011, 09:15 AM) Me too not yet and yeah this is the propose buyers list.  What's the minimum deposit amount? Deposit not sure yet. The booking fee is RM1k refundable. Anyway, I have asked few 3 SAs, and most of them don't give a very good deal for group booking. The best I got from a salesman is free full tank of petrol and a Papago or Garmin GPS. Have you asked any SA yet? |
