My SA just told me that the Elantra will be delay launch from 22 Feb to 29 Feb for Media launching at Citra Mall and the Elantra car will be available in showroom on 3 March.

not 22 Feb meh ???   dont tell me they wan postponed again

SD already postpone the elantra for god knows how many years liao  . Really tak tau market.

Anyway I just checked in wiki and found out that Hyundai and Kia could actually be / under the same parent company? Seems that Hyundai Motor actually bought 51% of the share of Kia motors a few years back...

Kia was being rescued by Hyundai during the 97 crisis after declaring bankruptcy... Hyundai used to own 51% of Kia's share but few years ago it dropped below 50%... Both company form Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group, currently the fifth largest automakers in the world.

i told my uncle and some of my family older member say i wan buy korean car...
they say:are you crazy?bodoh?y buy korean car?no good la,fuel comsumption high la,no resale value la..blahh..blah...
they fucuk me like hell ..lolz..

seen that most of older generation in thier mind only T and H or conti car...
dunno why!!

i try explain nowday how korean car is better and better..but they never listen..

Do you really blame them? Ive said this many times before. This problem is due to the KOREANS themselves. Dont blame anybody else. Its only NOW that the Koreans are giving quality products. But do you expect 20 years of bad experience to disappear because of just 2 years of good ones?

Re-education and rebranding will take years. Dont expect major changes in mentality overnight. But most importantly, dont blame the consumers. If you wanna blame anybody then blame the Koreans themselves.

Please... It's not that Ah Peks only will buy D-segment, only Ah Peks can *afford* D-segment in this country thanks to you know what. If your thinking is so narrow then you will one day become an Ah Pek who drives a Camry because you think this is what Ah Peks should be driving and nothing more.

You obviously haven't driven an Accord or M6 have you? A tricked out D-segment is gorgeous to behold and costs a whole lot more to trick out, which the ordinary citizen cannot afford to do. Besides, D-segment is considered a normal sized family sedan in US and most parts of the developed world while C-segment is popular not because it is sporty but more so because it is an econobox and cheap to run.

Please don't generalize things you obviously know nothing about.

Nope, the previous Avante didn't have much of what is offered on the Forte including the engines, plus it looked a little funny from the front. And because SD was the company behind it 

I think this is a silly & over-generalised statement. Many ppl i know who drive these D segment cars are middle management corp faces. You may get some of your 'ah peks' driving but thats only because they have sufficient income to afford. But to generalise and say that most of them are such is an understatement.

Lets leave such statements out of these discussions and lets keep our threads as mature as we can.

I think you dont understand what he meant. Its nothing about who owns what. Its about the other guy's statement which is silly and surely unwanted on this thread. If he wasnt born yesterday then he should have have refrained from making such 'yesterday' statements right?

Lets get back to cars.
