the SA offered this to me:
1) old version w/o HU with discount of 1500
2) new version with HU

after 1st round of bargain, i get 1000 discount on the new version (with HU) + RM200 tinting voucher but no other freebies even full tank, smarttag/tng.
im actually waiting for elantra spec to compare but most likely i will go for forte. if so, i will try to get leather seat + full set of K logo on top of that
can any1 advise me whether my request is too much??

still yet to get the spec, i hv to wait until compare the spec although i believe almost same spec as spore version, then i only "die heart"
i will compare the elantra 1.6(A) normal spec with forte 1.6SX as benchmark and see whether hyundai SA can give discount anot

hi, im not a pro also but i think u hv to know what u want at the first place?
spacious? budget? FC? features? then only can choose a car which suit u most
for example, if ur budget is below RM100k, then plenty of cars. if below 90k then u may only hv these selection: forte elantra vios city pug207, the new preve etc
well, my personal opinion only

heard they gonna stop EX production
if so, all the current EX may be old stock

Added on April 6, 2012, 10:47 amseems like prius will be ur choice due to good fc n big enuf
im not saying the forte FC no good but of coz hybrid will be having the best FC (i suppose la, nv drive a hybrid car b4) wat i read from forum, forte avr fc for city driving is about 10-12L/100KM

to me, i need a bigger car for my family. im not a salesperson n only drive to office everyday (about 20min). thus, 'normal fc' will be ok to me.
as a conclusion, forte is value for money, suit my requirement n within my budget

perhaps u can list down the cars u interested and rate them 1 to 5 1=worst and 5=best
for example,
FC:
hybrid - 5
vios - 4
city - 3
forte - 2
elantra - 1
then follow by space, design, gadget etc. after all these u juz sum up all the rating and u will know which car suit u most

will it void warranty?

it stated *Net Selling Price Excluding Insurance, Road Tax & Registration

the nett selling price of 2.0 is 94275.80 and i think u can easily get 1.5k discount from any dealers or even naza

Im thinking to go for 3M tint but afraid the built in gps cant receive signal after that coz heard some 3M users claim that cant use smartag after tinting.
Anyone can share the experience?

hey bro thanks for sharing!

the warranty wont be voided? or just depends on the SC (depends on how guai lan of them)?

hi any of u who is driving the forte with new built in GPS HU go for 3M CR70?
if so, does it affect the gps signal?

ohh ic
i was told the price is about the same, maybe few ringgit different
so i tot itz the updated prices for 6 speeder as he sold a 6 speed to me mah...
now i think he is a lousy sa...haha

hows the outcome? more powerful? higher or lower FC?

I think if u wont sell ur car in short term (but i heard forte resale value already improved a lot) and you can accept the FC, it will be a very good choice bcoz forte comes with many features and the price is much more cheaper compare to other segment C cars.
anyhow, u should go for a test drive n judge by yourself.

just my 2cent

in fact i am newbie
from the threads i gone thru (not many in fact), FC for
city drive with min traffic jam about 10-11L/100km
city drive n always stuck in traffic jam maybe up to 14L/100km
and many ppl say itz depend on ur right foot

the FC whether high anot is quite individual la... to me, i can accept it mah
when i buy this car, i did not compare the fc with civic and i think altis fc will be better.
i think the price difference included the interest can cover lotsa thg.
and dun forget those features. those safety features like ecs is very important to me and i like all other features eg blutooth, gps n so on.
so, i chose forte (after long waiting for elantra n the price disappointed me)

i think
white = sexy & energy saving but wash frequently & very obvious if got scratch mark
titanium silver = dun need to wash frequently & scratch mark is not so obvious but more to normal look n use a bit more energy

hey bro, heard there is promo in May, can get more discount
