kia improved alot.. Even the forte 2.0, good power, handling, steady, silent, sound systems better and the interior feels tougher than the car i previously owned. I used to drive Altis 2009 model, it was ok but the interior was a bit unclelish... but was looking at the mentality of buying "toyota", so i bought it anyway...
one more thing should consider also, most car jackers still likes toyota and honda cars... so watch out... mine kena stolen so thats why i choose kia forte... somehow turn out to be a good car....

I think kia/hyundai user is getting more and more.. .so eventually things will change... young executive are getting more adventures in choosing car compare to the older batches.... market is there...

thumbs up to optima 2012.. definitely caught my attention.
