guys need ur commends n feedback from current owners of 2.0sx forte koup

am considering 308 turbo, polo tsi, forte 2.0 / koup 2.0

not much info from page 1 & had viewed through online reviews.

wish tai kor n che's willing to share their driving exp with their sexy forte koup

my concerns,
- FC
- handling
- back passenger seat space enough for a 170cm adult?
- air cond power ?
- car reliability, any breakdowns so far?
- bumpy ride?

had to ask although those YouTube reviews. did cover

but I prefer real owners feedback on the car

thousand thx

I had test drive elantra.. the SA allow me to rev till my limits.. power so so.. handling during cornering if at steady speed with ESP on its ok.. at slightly higher speed say 90/kmh at curvy corners the car went bananas for a while then I think the ESP kicks in n stabilise it again.. fuuuhhhh

Finaly went to test drive forte 2.0 & koup

damn it's a nice looking car.. (koup)

power wise really dint feel much of it. maybe due to the big diff of lower rpm tourge. cuz just test polo tsi a day before. the diff of stand still - floor gas pedal small car gives the Wow factor

forte 2.0 really comfort to drive, all aspect is just nice. Would be a sure buy if it wasn't for the evil step
brother Koup smile.gif

koup, few major things I felt are the stiff suspensions.. u can really feel what's going through the road surface.

& the passenger having a hard time getting out. I banged my head n butt while testing it

I'm so confuse n frustrated now... forte or koup ... arghhhhh
