The best is to personally seek the interest rate directly from the bank. Usually SA will tell their customers in term of range from what rate to what rate coz they dont know it for sure. Coz the rate are more or less depends on what bank u choose & the current financial status of the borrower.

years?

Yaa..when i bought my Wira 1.3 Aeroback back on 2001, i got 4.9% for 9 years of loan. That's a whole lot of different if compared to 2.9% i got for the Forte now

same 9 years as of my wira (but forte = 84k loan, wira only 46k loan)

When i seek for the lowest interest rate for car loan last time (back to November 2009), Affin & CIMB offers the best rate which are 2.8 & 2.85% (9 years) respectively. But i decided to choose Maybank instead for hassle free repayment (autodebit from my salary account) though it gives me 2.9%

Yeahh..that should be ABS doing its job

Added on August 8, 2010, 2:20 amCongrats bro. This club should be a subset to our main myforteclub right?

Me also reaching that figure for a full tank, can say 80% city driving with several bad traffic jams + long idling (waiting). I conclude that as acceptable

So, if your club is not a subset to MFC & be like a stand-alone club, MFC members (from other states) cannot joint your club & all of its activities/events as well right? I'm still on the same opinion as bro KFC & other MFC members that is to unite all forte owners under 1 roof (MFC) so that all the members will get the recognizable benefits. Be a subset to MFC by zone (i.e. Kedah/Perlis MFC) in my opinion is better. Many stand-alone clubs will just shows no unity among the Forte owners. It's just my own perception/opinion bro..hopefully no hard feeling

By the way, i planned to balik kampung for Hari Raya from 6-11 September. Quite near to Hari Raya i must say to join mini TT there if any..see howlah then

Yaa bro Arif, that's why i personally prefer us to unite under 1 main club coz it shows our unity & fortezenship. I personally feels that different name/club for fortezen will hardly contribute to that purposes. But luckily all of the 'Kedah Perlis Kia Forte Owners Club (KPKFOC)' members also joining MFC..so i can see our fortezenship there. Only that KPKFOC members can join MFC activities/events, but sad to say that it doesn't work the other way round Again, this is my personal opinion & by no means trying to make it controversial between both clubs.

SX..1.6 or 2.0? for 1.6, now can get the car in 1-2 weeks time provided that no fussy on the choice of colour but for 2.0 maybe have to wait longer than that

Wahh..got sunroof meh. For extra 3k, no doubt i will opt for this. Some more got many color choices..dark cherry..wow! unfortunately already got the MY version

I think what is bro sham trying to say is change to lighter rims & use back the same tyres. It should do good to FC. Or perhaps can downgrade to 16" rims (which is much lighter) & use 205/55 tyres; that should not effect the speedometer reading by much as the circumference of the tyre+rim is almost the same.

For good FC (besides being a light footer) is to keep your car as light as possible, correct tyre pressure & drive at a moderate speed (if possibe )

Ya..very rare species (1st batch especially). I wonder how many 2.0 Forte OTR right now? Hmmm...100...200?

The color choice alone is hard to get due to high demand..2.0 some more. Last time when i met my SA, he said that next delivery of 2.0 estimated on September but not sure before or after raya

Added on August 14, 2010, 11:28 amDamn..how i wish our forte comes with option for sunroof. I dont mind paying extra 3k for it. If this news is true, those 32 units are extremely a rare species.

No..please dont give up waiting & cancel the booking. It really2 worth the wait trust me. Me last time booked on November 2009 & my SA promised me can get the car on January 2010. But it ended up getting the car on early April. Again i tell u, it worth the wait & cents

yours 2.0 i guess? else, 1.6 can get in no time if u not fussy with color choice. Please stick to it, u will end up happy later on

I'm thinking the same like u. To change to 16" for better comfort (& perhaps better FC). I've been driven by KFC in his car (with 16" rims), all i can say that it is much better in term of comfort without sacrificing much on the car's look. I will seriously looking forward to replace my 17" rims to 16" after the current tyres worn out. But as far as 16" rims with 5 holes is concern, it is quite limited in design i have to say. Most of 5-holes-rim are 17" & above.

Bro KFC, is it possible to install this to our HU (MY version)? If possible, where to install it & how much? I'm looking for this mod actually...

That 7" HU actually an OEM unit from Korea. Should have no issue regarding the steering audio control buttons.

Added on August 16, 2010, 11:19 amYaa..i notice that was an EX's manual air-cond knob. Quite sure that KFC showed this from his own car. Damn u KFC..fast2 la tell us where did u do this? & at what cost? Else, we will molest your car on the very next TT coz of jealousy
