1) Low re-sale value (well, this i dont give a damn coz dont think gonna sell so soon)
2) High FC, about 0.20/km city drive  (yes, this kinda worries me. But some owner has better fc after 1st & 2nd service, but others?)
3) Pricey parts, certain parts sommore no keep stock ( anyone has bad experience on this b4 ?)
4) Of coz there are also some minor-minor problems like rattling sound frm dashboard, under the seat, steering alignment out 1 side ect. (errmm...i think i can bear with that, in fact some of it actually can be rectify)
thanks.

1) u know it wink.gif
2) for god sake, downgrade to 16 or 15' inch! then you fc will be on par with vios! if stock 17' of course 1.6 engine cannot give best fc, but still acceptable. mine is 4 speed ex, 15 inch rims..best fc can get >600km per full tank for highway. urban drive can get >500km.
3) yes, quite true on especially in 2010..2011 n now should be better as more forte are on the roads. you should 'cleverly' find for the parts, not relying 100% on SC or official source. experience 2 repairs already in 2010, the nazakia parts supply management sux at that moment. hopefully they are better now. if you want to check, call nazakia hotline, refer to spare parts, and ask directly for forte parts availability. if they have it in high volume ready stock then it should be ok now. else you can find parts 'outside' from few sources.
4) 4 speed forte rarely got this problem. for 6 speed ocassionally heard the complains, go to sc to rectify if it serious.

Yes, loan approved @ 2.65% from Hong Leong bank (applied on Monday), gonna get my car this week or next week.
Test drive it, if feel OK just go ahead and buy. There is good side and bad side of every car. Depends on your luck only.
As for fuel consumption still depends on your driving style.

At first want to choose another SA which offer free Leather seat only but no deal with him due to bad attitude and try to fool ppl around. Beware of certain SA. hehehe icon_rolleyes.gif

Main benefit: looks sexier ... wub.gif
and usually better corner handling with larger rim

cons: higher FC (very little), higher cost, less comfort coz high profile) sweat.gif
