Bro, if u ask me, dun need to wait for Paul or Edmund or anyone review (no offense)  whistling.gif
Just go and feel it yourself. Those people has their preferences towards a certain brand.  sweat.gif
So will u still go ahead if your test drive as what u expected and they said otherwise?  shakehead.gif
Just test drive the car (several times) as I test drove it more  than 6 times at different places for slope test, highway test, rough terrain and jam situation.  icon_rolleyes.gif  icon_rolleyes.gif
I come back satisfy and never look back bro  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

Don't take me the wrong way bro, Forte has a nice design hence I will consider it too. smile.gif
But if u compare with Elantra whistling.gif whistling.gif whistling.gif no need to even think for a sec which one i will choose.

For HQ, I was managed to persuade the SA to let me drive all the way to Terminal 1 then make a u-turn at the round about back to Subang SS15 round about then LDP to Glenmarie. Even managed to test drove this route during a heavy down pour (since no one wanna test). So I can at least test the handling or ESC/VSM. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

For Puchong, I managed to try LDP to KESAS (highway n up hill) back to Kinrara (slope test) then back to LDP (jam test). thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Don't have to listen to the SA much after the 1st test. Just step on the paddle and go bro thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

The thing that entice me most is the most important part - dual cvvt engine and leather seat. The rest are just bonus for me though it will be nice to have..... and now still thinking which suits me more; Forte or Elantra.

Will go and test drive tmrw biggrin.gif

speechless because :
1st the interior feels slightly bigger than Forte, the car that i am considering right now.

2nd, once inside, it gives me THE luxury feeling, which i didnt quite feel from Forte. Well maybe because im seeing the high spec Elantra, which is why?

3rd It looks way much modern, Forte is dated. It gives me a feeling that this new design concept is THE future of cars design. Forte design is so late 2000s-ish, while Elantra is very 201xish.

In summary, the look and feel pretty much gives me that SPEECHLESS feel. ya i know, it was a stolen tagline from Kia Forte, but Forte is dated, it is speechless no more.

In spite of that .....

There are no local reviews, and feedbacks and owner experience about this car yet. And this is important for my final decision between Forte and Elantra. And .... i havent test drive an Elantra yet, i heard it got a triple layer of something... which muffles the engine even more? sry not very technical incline with cars yet. Will do a test drive this weekend.
