if that's your budget then should be fine but if u can push your budget to the 86k range just get the new 2012 1.6 sx, worth it with the reverse camera, bluetooth + paddle shifters alone..

first time heart forte antenna also pple steal..thought only myvi pple steal which is more common..

what petrol u using? i mean petrol brand

that's panic button / car locator..not alarm...only for SX model also, its a button to press on the remote.

dont bet on that good a FC if u drive in city area often..in highway still ok, but depends on right foot again..i'm not getting that good FC mix 30% city 70% highway only can get about 9.7-9.8L/100KM..but i'm quite heavy footed and drive fast quite often..so to be expected..if FC really concern, just get vios or honda city...

well either the SA is trying to give you false information or he just misled you, some people call that panic button alarm but to me it isn't..but luckily my SA told me all this beforehand and I already checked around before I bought the car, knowing that there's no alarm. So asking around is a good thing also to learn more about a car you're about to buy.

that's clearly a lie..unless he is saying if you buy the forte from him, he will get the alarm retrofitted from the SC..which could happen too..if not mistaken that costs about RM 400 or so to get it retrofitted, no warranty will void..stock forte built in no alarm

Like i said, if u want good FC forget about this car, it wont give u good FC in city for sure...if heavy traffic can go 10-11L/100KM for sure..dun dream on good FC with this C segment car, heavy weight. Vios will suit your needs more.

yes it is very subjective but usual driving to work won't really yield good results unless you're travelling on highway with little to no traffic jams. compare this to driving a manual car or myvi, i think myvi will definitely get better FC due to better power to weight ratio of the car and engine as well.

i would not recommend someone forte if FC is really something important....

drive slow sure get good fc or drive steady lightfoot at about 90-100 km/h..but its hard in KL cos of the traffic...u drive steady then some slowpoke end up in 2nd lane even

i own 6spd forte, dont regret it, just want to let everyone know the facts and make sure they know that if really FC is something they care about, just get the boring kosong vios

well alarm is annoying actually..if u stay in landed property or your car is very near your office where your alarm can be heard then OK. If not, i think kinda useless cos nobody really care if your alarm bising also.

ouch. what car were you driving back then?

agreed. the main selling point for elantra at the moment is the D-CVVT engine, other than that nothing really special honestly. Forte is still the better buy overall and after driving manual for almost 10 years, i'm tired..that's why got the forte which is auto

yeah..for VW all you end up with is a...wagon..haha

take some pics and upload for us to see

har? wtf first time i heard this! i went to Kinrara SC last time and they said can even delay up to 1 month if u din reach mileage yet, which SC is this? looks like u might be kena cheated

normal fabric, not water repel type like city or preve.

nothing different for the warranty other than the 3 years from allianz is an extended warranty, everything else is pretty much same including parts that is covered under the warranty. you will get a document mentioning what is covered and what is not within 1-6 months after you get your car. For service, yes you have to pay normal charges of course including labour (after you've used up the first 3 free labour charge vouchers given to you).

For warranty, yes it only covers if something is spoilt of course - that's how warranty works. What were you expecting?

oh..didnt notice that...have to find my papers to check, but i didn't recall seeing this..maybe i overlooked
