Added on July 20, 2010, 10:19 ami think lancer(coz 2.0 variant and share a big class with Evo X) bigger, waja...dun compare, way smaller....
mayb civic same size lo...since civic got 2.0 variant...

---

Added on July 20, 2010, 10:23 amthe whole car is still CBU unit, but they make it CKD coz :
1. they nid rebadge to naza
2. they nid to cut out some features
3. they nid 2 change the leather seats in 2.0 variant...
other than that, is still CBU
well, u can't expect a car(compare on 1.6SX) sold in singapore in SGD53K and sold here in RM82K in full specifications.....right??
1.6SX ori price from singapore convert wise ald around RM120++K ald.....yup, more expensive than civic 1.8

Kindly look & search in Mudah.my or perhaps also in this forum from time to time. Few weeks ago got someone selling the 1.6SX (year 2009) for about RM76k if i'm not mistaken & the car has been sold in no time

Added on July 20, 2010, 11:33 amAiyaa..kindly dont call me sifu laa Me also not expert enough. Maybe i'm wrong also. i just try to recall back the theoretical parts of Force & Aerodynamics for practical purposes. hopefully my memory still serves me well..already 9 years leaving college u know & i did not practice it either on my current job

Somehow your SC manager's statement might be right also. If the BK was designed & tested properly in a wind tunnel (to get the best design for streamline air flow especially under the car), the BK might reduce the Drag Force (FD) under the car thus improving FC. But this improving FC figure are ignorable/unnoticeable at a low speed. It is somewhat more noticeable at a high speed cruising. In conclusion, i'm not sure enough whether our versions of BK that available here are properly design (for streamline air-flow) & fully tested (wind tunnel) or not? At least the BK do the justice to my eyes coz our Forte looks very nice & sporty with BK actually

some ppl say forte at this worth price having such awesome spec. inside material might be china make. might be spoil easily. keyless entry , push start button or watever as compare with other cars with with 80k+ did not come with such spec. wonder how true is dis.

the key words is might be there
that people use uncertain words because they also dunno but only afraid of kia's past history and don't want others to enjoy the luxury kia has offered.

"Yeah, is true, all like China make because it is so cheap......so, other than China make will looks luxury and not "cheap"." If you believe "those" people who made this statement, please, go buy yourself T or H car.....

Here we have hundreds of forte's owner and we all know how the quality of this car.......so, no point to say it again here.....

go see and feel the car yourself....

FYI the push button from KIA and TOYOTA from same supplier .. you can check out Camry push button and Kia's

but no doubt some items are china made because the cost is much cheaper there but doesn't mean it compromise the quality ... In China you pay what you get, China Mass production gives you a very nice price further more hyundai & Kia share alot of common parts.

btw most of our branded phones are made in China.

The price here is cheap because of a diff tax structure for locally assemble cars.

THe price is cheaper because a lower earnings margin to gain popularity , if they sell at Honda & Toyota price you can imagine what their sales figure will be like.

Alot of kopitiam comments ( you now those ppl just sit down chit chat with a up of coffee) provide their evaluation without facts , alot of factor how they reach this price and each car manufacturer and their dealer wants to sells so diff brand have diff strategy Honda & Toyota can sell higher because the demand is higher quality & standard are acknowledged... same goes to Ferrari, BMW, Merc ... etc

Dear all fortezen, we don't need to talk so much, only ourself know how's the feeling of owning a forte. those Rumormonger wanna make noise we also cant do anything right.
a chinese proverb to them "you have no chance to eat the grapes; you says that's sour grapes"...
hahaha...

Yeahh..that's true. Even the mighty iPhone also assembled in China. Does it compromise the iPhone quality? Not at all, i'm sure enough...

Dear all fortezen, I am looking for purchase a forte. Does anyone here are came from penang/butterworth/bm/kulim?? Any good and nice SA can intro to me?? I had went to autocity KIA last week. But the SA just give me some promotion like kia logo, full tank petrol, and tinted voucher.

But I do not want the kia logo. I want 'K' after market logo. And tinted voucher is useless for me too lo. So hope to get more better n suit me one SA lo. haha.

Would like to ask, for the location where I looking for, how long all of you waiting the forte? I am looking for clear white forte. Heard that it have to wait more n more long time if compare other color.
And what is the interest rate for 5/7 years now? Izit our gov already fix it?

Thanks and hope to heard yours soon. ^^

calling for the racist white car owner.. check this thread if you interested.. wakakakkaka

Added on July 20, 2010, 2:34 pmI believe Fully Syn improves FC becos of its viscosity which is 30. Mineral Oil is thicker if I'm not wrong.
So, is common, thinner oil our engine struggle less while thicker oil need more effort to push..
