for manual 1.6, at that price range,

they have to fight with,

vios 1.5 auto- G spec (85k+)
inspira 1.8 manual- way more powerful (rm79k+)
fiesta 1.6 auto - full spec at lesser price (Rm82k)
honda city 1.5 auto - basic spec. (RM85k+)
Forte 1.6 fullspec - RM 85888

Mean that "Hello Impossible" tagline is true to many malaysian. hehe..
HSDM made it impossible to own one..

They dont want to sell quantity.. they want quality..

here comes a new challenger

I gave up on the Elantra... even though I like it, looks like I can't afford it.
Went ahead with the Ford...

lol... lai inspira lah... how ur inspira bro turbo?

Somebody who can afford like me also will think thousand times to buy an Elantra. hehe.. Or end up will not buy it.
Why? Main reason, 1st 1.8 price close to 120K which same wt Japanese or conti.
2nd Its using Inokom badge not Hyundai. Why not using "Hyundai" brand? Inokom cheaper price (no)?
3rd It's not CBU like Mazda, Mitsubishi or Volkwagen which still can sell CBU wt same price. Why Msian made still sell that high?
4th Msian perception for Japanese car better than Korean. In this case why dont buy all new civic.
5th Better service & easy to find part for Japanese.

Pricing strategy is so wrong for local made car. I can only accept that price for CBU Hyundai.

Who willing to buy Manual for Basic spec with that price? Kidding meh? Just because the external looks nice compare the all cars above?

Another ugly car from VW. Looks worse than the Passat 1.8 and Jetta. Hope they really price it cheap. So far ive only seen 1 jetta and 1 Passat 1.8 on the road in KL since its launch.

Forte 2.0 @ 90k+... Elantra 1.8 @ 118k....

which to choose for urself ?

"Elantra win award in us.. so must price it higher.. " says sd

wonder wat is the price diff btwn Forte n Elantra in other country esp in Korea...

then we have a better idea why the hell the Elantra are so... ... ... ..

If it is really 118k, nine out of ten ppl will go for new civic.. mas mentallity

er, to honda's defense, its call, proven & reputable.

Civic new design give do Hyundai a big favour....

wat is the New Civic design same with this Elantra...

if wanna talk about good look, kia koup 2.0 at rm115k is very handsome for its price

In Korea, Forte price 14,890,000 won to 18,020,000 won
Avante 13,400,000 won to 18,900,00 won

No different actually.

Coupe is not practical for a lot of ppls....

Just got an update.. launching feb 9..
