QUOTE(enson1985 @ Jun 2 2011, 10:31 AM) Hey bro... i got the same answer like you as they really cant confirm the OTR price of new avante. The extra news i got is there will be 3 spec. 1.6 v standard spec, 1.8 v standard spec n 1.8 luxury spec. Hi, sure got 1.6? I heard from branch manager #2 that they only have 1.8 & 2.0. Really hope they will not come out with a 1.6 Avante at a price close to Forte 1.6...... this will surely kill Forte & also lower down our resale value & make us jealous not to have a more beautiful car.If 1.8 v standard spec priced below 100k then probably i will go for the new avante as they are using the new "Nu" engine which claim better fuel efficiency and the car has better quality of plastic. Furthemore the US based Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has awarded the 2011 Hyundai Elantra a "TOP SAFETY PICK"!!! IIHS Top safety pick link here |

QUOTE(epo @ Jun 2 2011, 02:29 PM) For safety rating, usually car manufacturers will send their cars for testing that are equipped with full loads of safety thingies like side airbags, curtain airbags, anti-whiplash head rest, seat belt with pretensioner & load limiter etc. But when it come into sales..not all these safety equipments installed as a standard..it depends on which country/region the cars are sold. |

When cars come to malaysia everything cut here cut there to make it more affordable -.- but lucky for us most Korean cars still have loads of features and still offer good pricing..T&H cars is the worst for features..

hi all
may i know about forte 1.6 sx facelift? is it good? i would like to know from those who already owned this model. i did have my chance to sit inside in this model and it's really tempting. it makes my vios looks and feel 10 years old already (i bought new vios last year) i am thinking about this new forte and avante as well. how about naza after sales service is it excellent? |

Whatever lah, we are here to enjoy the Forte and not to worry about what's available from the other car company. There is enough thread on that in LYN here.

the upcoming new Avante is only available at 1.6 and 1.8, no 2.0, coz it'll crash sonata 2.0's sales...

We might be a careful, be a defensive driver & always think safety in mind..but someone might not thinking the same & might crash on u..Let say u drive across the 't' junction with a traffic light (green light on your way) & then out of nowhere another car crash on u on your side. If your got extra airbags (say side & curtain airbags), it will deploy to protect u. At least u got some sort of protection when someone crash on your sideways. & in this case, the extra airbags do make a difference. |
