Lol... jenn wo... nvm... we arent sexist here..  tongue.gif

I really can't wait d. Lou with bank expiring end of this month.  sad.gif

I spoke to 3 people yesterday. This is their reply:-

SA = Stock here already. (Say this every week for the last 2 - 3 weeks)

SA's Manager = 2.0 next batch ready from Gurun in July 15 2010. (Last week said this week) Mentioned that Naza Gurun assembly got problem.

Careline = Another 2 months (at least consistent)....... then they confirm my details and say... metal bronze right? I said WTF, it has always been white since March 2010..... they checked and changed the system to white...  shakehead.gif

Anyways, I don't want to pay higher interest rates and play this game anymore, totally lose confidence with Naza 100% d. I need the car for my work and my present car is promised to my sibling since April. Imagine wait until end July. Then get another response saying end August..... I won't be surprised anymore....its Naza (they are totally irresponsible and never consistent) and thats why the Forte is priced so competitively.

2.0 not much ppl wants it...that's y is slow, meanwhile, 1.6 either EX or SX are hot selling model....i get it within 2 weeks time...any color available, but i still chose bright silver(family likes that color)
2.0, i also love it...but...since waiting period is so long(not as long as waiting saga blm se), i prefer 1.6 sx anyway...and happy 4 it..

while this car is beautiful...I seriously doubt chicks dig a kia... at least not until maybe they finally reach a certain level of recognition by the Japanese brand which in my opinion is going to hell...toyota feels like boring econo box...honda engine pretty good but build quality sucks...I am hoping the korean gonna spize things up... I just want to know honestly anything negative bout the new kia.... maybe I won't get the answer from owner but from what I heard the engine not as lively as a honda but thanksfully the build quality is relatively good and its cheap! hmmm gona drop by kia showrrom to take a closer look...

i seriously agree with this statement....
coz the new siti's engine is euro emission 4 standard, while forte only euro 3

as a forte owner, the negative part is steering always steer to left. No spare part made locally for now. a bit underpower if u use auto mode but if use shiftronic. noise cause by our low profile tyre.
*
yep...that's the only bad/negative part
but now, mine ald better...much better
dun move to left that much ald(still move but slightly)
i think need change better tyre in order to get better performance...

btw....can we lighten 1.6 p.steering abit??
if can, how?? coz i tried on tyre pressure, won't work..

Safety? I see nothing safe by keeping your thumb on the up button for 3 seconds when you can do it with auto-up for less than 1 and keep both hands back on the wheel.

As for the boot lid, I have to add one more con: Gooseneck hinges which crush your baggages when shut. This is also found in many other B and C segment cars. The Lancer's boot hinge design makes much more common sense and it's surprising that there aren't more carmakers that follow suit.

and i wanna see u try the 3 seconds after exit toll while raining very heavily....while got cars both sides rushing out too....

Think before I write? Maybe you should be the one doing so.

Kindly explain how spending more time with one hand controlling the wheel while being distracted by closing the window is safer than holding it with both hands, which is the way you should be.

Using your example, the auto-up window function would be much safer as you should be keeping your attention on the nearby cars rushing out from tolls, not being distracted by winding up the window.

that is what i mean....auto-up windows is safer....

sry, mayb i misunderstood ur statement...

but this was really what i mean.

[quote=choonwai11,Jun 29 2010, 09:50 AM]yo... cool down bro,

yeah, as u said, i cannot tahan ppl is my business, now u are the one trying to mind my business? i nv offended anyone when i cannot tahan ppl, i nv bash him, i nv bash his car, so i dun think i cannot tahan ppl is anything inmature.....

FYI, ask me to leave the earth one is other ppl talk to me but not my comment, if you nv read about our conversation. so if you think this statement offended you, then wat you think i felt when i was told this statement?

ok, i will not like talk about this anymore. if you really cannot accept that i cannot tahan ppl, i cannot do anything.

i apologize if my post offended anyone.

Cheers.

I having the same issue previously, sound like something loose, I told my wife the sound is from passenger seat and she said is from driver seat. So end up we found the culprit, that is the misplaced sun glass in the sunglass container that causing the problem! biggrin.gif

Anyone tried VPower97 from Shell?

I pumped full tank last Friday night.

RM95 full tank. Shell RON95 was around RM80-RM85.

For RM15 more, so far after using half a tank i noticed i got around 20km more. Last time RON95 half tank only get me around 230-250km, now i already reach 270km.

I m not sure if it's placebo effect but the engine seems to be more quiet and responsive.

Will try full tank and see if it's worth the RM15 more biggrin.gif

If RM85 can travel 470km = RM0.18/km

RM95 can travel 500km = RM0.19/km

I think it's worth the extra RM0.01/km?

i agreed with this statement, juz pumped VPower 97 juz now @ 45L RM99.
engine was soooo quiet, the smoke from exhaust was like odourless(the worse ever is esso/mobil RON95).
Shell petrol is my no.1 choice coz i feel the fuel is clean...
