OMG 1.8 for RM86,888 ??

The leather seats remind me of Gen2.. And indeed it looks terrible for a 100k car..

Singapore is having 6 airbags for high spec model. Base model comes with 2.

exactly, i mean, which dumb f*** who actually suggested non standard HU, non standard and ugly (nappa???) leather seats and sunroof over the side and curtain airbags? seriously pissed

Very high possibility it's too low..

Obviously Hyundai Malaysia is really like a shit, no matter is Service,Marketing even Quality like Tuson..i10 . I don't want to sped a money to buy a car that cause me nightmare. I device to give up Elantra and go for Ford.

can't agree more.

Ford also under SD... Maybe you can try it and see why many people dare not touch a Ford

In my opinion, forte is way out of this segments league. Sometimes when I hear people comparing forte with civic/Altis, it makes me giggle. To me, it is more in city/dugong(vios)'s range but with a 2.0 engine advantage. When you compare avante, do it with civic or Altis. You don't go comparing a c-class with a Camry.

Back to the topic, I believe SD is really doing a bad job launching this car despite all the hello impossible crap. Yes the car is nice and all that but what are they doing on the service centers? People who boast how great sonata was, at the end of the day the volume sold is still low but of course improved. Same goes to forte. What I am trying to say is to strengthen the brand, they should improve on their 3s centers and make it convenient. Honda and Toyota is like dell. A lot of people hate it but still buy it as their after service is great.

I LOL'ed hard  when I read your comment about forte is out of this C-segment league... compare with city/vios? LOL!

Compare an apple with an apple, not orange dude! in fact Forte/Altis/Civic/Avante/Lancer they all fall under the same category, which is C-segment!

My 2cent:-

Price below RM100K (new)
**** 2011 Kia Forte 2.0 SX (6-speed auto)
- got style, FC (decently) low, easy service by principal or 3rd party service center, only lower resell value compare to Jap car
- Note: By the time you sell the car in 5 years, Kia brand would have risen, and your salary will got up to more than RM1k or much more , means it will offset depreciation value and allow you to evaluate the D-class segment drive

Price below RM100K (2nd hand)
**** 2009 Honda Civic 1.8L (5-speed auto)
- got style, FC (decently) low, branded and easy service by principal or 3rd party service center, plus by paying a few RM$$$$K to upgrade leather seating and canggih sound system (8-speakers+subwoofer, USB+iPod, GPS & Touch Screen), by buying 2nd hand and saving the 1st hand car money you would have paid

New cars to consider for 2012 (C-class segment)

1. H. Civic 2012
2. H. Elantra 2012
3. F. Focus 2012
4. Peugeot 408
5. Madza3 with Skyactiv

I think will price between RM 100k to RM130k?

SD =

Sure Delay

Simply Dubious

Surprisingly Delinquent

Super Disorganized

Surely Dodgy

eh our bro fluidic so quiet d one? any updates?

2 more days to 22nd oh

One SA from Ampang reaffirmed again this afternoon that 1.8Premium will be 10X,XXX  .
He said the Elantra will be launched end of February. Delivery 2-3 weeks later

can dapat chick faster hor..

Sime Darby : You want to buy you wait else you go off lah !! I don't care. 

Wah, I'm guessing you're working in a subsidiary of SD?


4) Elantra. Untested. The 1.6 is the slowest among these 4 cars in question. The 1.8 is better but won't be cheap. However since you have a staff discount and subsidized int rate I don't see why not.

different ppl will have different expectation.

and different price will have different expectation.

in US, elantra is priced at what price?

low price + decent quality > decent price + decent quality

Price : RM 86 888  for 1.8 auto?
must buy ady!

today receive penang branch mms...but too bad cant read the mms..anyone know what is it about?

corruption

86k is the starting price for the base model la
