this is the first time i intend to buy a car.

dear all readers please feel free to share your experiences with the forte.

how’s your experience with your forte to date? i read some comments on problems with forte like car breakdown, pulling to the left, sound here and there, jerking, electronics malfunction, poor resale value seen in the classified the star newspapers such as kia sportage and optima, fuel consumption getting higher after few k km, etc.

i’m a bit worried now. i’m still buying time before i book the 1.6L SX. i'm like standing in the middle of a line. to buy or not to buy. cannot sleep nowadays keep thinking forte and reading business news. whether economy will stabilise or crash. is it the right time to buy now or wait until naza kia offers more discounts and freebies? what would it be by end 2010? forte sales dropped in may while vios increased. will bank interest rate drops by end 2010? will reported quality issues be solved by end 2010 or 2011? could perodua viva be a better choice? half the price?

is the titanium silver looks a bit blue like the Camry? is it not grey? thinking of metal bronze.

hope all your feedback will help me to clear some doubts.

thank you.

hehe...i don't experinece any problem so far with my forte...not feel any jerking or whatsoever...my full tank can go maximum now 550-580km...overall ~ thumbup.gif
btw...anyone from first batch ~ 1st 500 owner unit feel the jerk??
one more thing...there is some sound...like yek2 when want to move...maybe becoz of the seat...
