Good morning guys,
I test drove both 1.6HS & 1.8 last saturday, for some reason i have lost my passion towards this car. I think because waited too long and too many delay and dissapoinment.
My SA said i will get the car by end of April or beginning of May. But too bad no one can confirm if dark blue is available for 1st batch.
Still cant decide between K5 & Elantra, damn i think i really like Elantra despite everything, kene poison too deep...

Yesterday went to Kia road show in one U and sat in Forte 2.0, no doubt this car is the best choice in terms of price vs spec but i have to admit that the design already old... Some more K3 will out next year... Btw check this out: http://star-motoring.com/News/2012/US-to-p...re-reports.aspx Added on April 2, 2012, 11:51 amQUOTE(caddilac @ Apr 2 2012, 11:43 AM) If you can afford K5 then why don't you go for it?  Best is to buy both elantra & k5...  in my dream... This post has been edited by feng yun: Apr 2 2012, 11:51 AM

QUOTE(leftist @ Apr 2 2012, 01:53 PM) altis 1.6 arrrr???..waaaa i tot many says altis 1.6 underpower...means this elantra 1.6 much more underpower laaa  Strange but somehow i felt that 1.6 power quite ok but 1.8 quite dissapointing. Maybe this weekend will go test drive to be certain... Added on April 2, 2012, 2:00 pmBro fluidic, when can get 1st batch car ah? Heard so many rumours... end of april lah, early may la, 1 to 2 months la, 2 to 3 months la, anything confirm or do we have to wait until nationwide launch this friday?

QUOTE(mav3rick @ Apr 2 2012, 02:00 PM) you're talking about the altis right? i havent tested the 1.6 before.. but the 1.8.. hmm.. nothing to shout about.. havent tried the 2.0 as well.. maybe i'm a bit bias because of my experience with the sylphy..  Nola bro, i was talking about elantra 1.6 and 1.8

QUOTE(JC999 @ Apr 2 2012, 02:10 PM) I think in US, the car has the eco button, where you can turn off the eco mode and changes the settings. Seems like our version, eco mode is always on, and off it when you accelerates. I think the engine settings is different Is it? I tot someone said the ECO is for indication of driving style ONLY?

Btw looks like this thread slow down drastically, no more excitement, only anticipation (for owner to be) + dissapointement

QUOTE(kevin23 @ Apr 5 2012, 08:40 AM) If i were looking for a car, i would rather take a proton preve than this elantra.. Soon Preve will win the "North Asia Car of the year 2012", good choice! K5 also you bash, elantra also you bash. Certainly you are anti-korean, wonder you are using samsung pon or i-pon
