Just testdrove today at Citta. Like the car but biggest setback to me was the headroom for the rear passenger. Although not as low as Honda Insight, however my hair can touch the top while sitting straight. I'm 5ft10. Imagine a 6 footer. Legroom was very spacious. Just the headroom is my concern.

Loan has been approved for my 1.8 purchase. HLB max 9 year rate around 2.47-2.48%. Not so ideal. Affin Bank never called me. SA told me Glenmarie HQ only submit to Affin & HLB, dunno how true as I never bother to check. Anyway gonna cancel my booking from HQ and I joined the group purchase with LTG & 666devil. SA for the Hyundai dealer said can get 2.45 from MBB. Anyone had better rates?

SA also told me there may be price increment for second batch. WTF!!! vmad.gif My wife wants a 'www' car plate but I may have to settle for second batch if we really want the 'www' but I don't wanna pay for the rumored price increment. $112k is high enough.

Yup. After owning a Hyundai in my family for couple of years, it lefts me and some of my friends wondering why spend more on Japanese when Korean can provide such a similar level of standard, better features yet at a lower price and better warranty IF resale value and driving dynamics are not your main concern (at least until now). Obviously I am not the only one to have such feeling coz even in the US, Hyundai is the brand with the highest customer retention smile.gif

My wife drives a 03 accent and it never gives her any major issue. Car still in very good condition now. Resale value may not be as high compare to Japs but it is not like we are changing car every 2-3 year like insurance agents. Not sure bout other insurance agents but mine does. Buy something that u like. If everyone is concerned bout value for money then the whole road would be full of Forte only and Japs & conti car also can go mampus. laugh.gif

@etseleste Maybe you can pick some hard to get color, no stock for you, and you booked already, so can aim for WWW while price change won't affect you. But you banging lots of luck there.

bro caddilac will be a nice TS for owner group.

have we decide what the group called?

My wife wants black so i doubt it is hard to get color. Ha ha. Secondary color is santo blue.

Car haven't deliver to doorstep already forming owner group?? sweat.gif

i think very less people in here took black which I know of.
but first batch do have black for both 1.6HS n 1.8 I heard.  thumbup.gif

White still dominate the current trend. Silver is always a safe bet. Wife is driving a silver hyundai accent so she wanna have different color. She thinks black look classy. Can't go against her wishes. sweat.gif

I gotten a 2.45 from MBB & 2.48 from HLBB for 90% loan with maximum tenure, but it might change if I would to increase my downpayment.
