exterior body design elantra superb compares to forte but somehow something lack with elantra

dunno what

1 question, for those who already placed booking if SD increase price later, would it affected us? need pay more?

Just came back from Puchong Show Room.. test drove Elantra 1.6GLS

Looks:
When I first reached there.. totally astounded and impressed by the design. oh god it looks so much better than in the brochure and youtube lol. It's really a nice futuristic and non-mainstream design. When i drove outside along KESAS Highway, totally felt so special 

Speed:
Pickup , there was 3 people in the car, all grown adults. Speed from 1-100 is just brilliant, and i must say the 6speed shifttronic is really flawless. Test drove up to 130kmph, was my max cause a lot of cars had to give way to me  so cant pickup much. Wind sound was totally oblivious to me, all way to 130kmph.

Comfort:
Since it's HS, the black leather felt okay, I cant comment much on it but it's definitely a good addition to its price. Suspension is OK, went through a couple of bumps, felt OK, but still a *bit* edgy because of the 205/55/16 tyres. Oh and did i mention, it came with soundproofing - so what i heard in the car was just us chatting lol. It's THAT QUIET.

Interior Finishing:
The plastic dashboard feels a bit hard and cheap. But then again, they masked with a greyish colour so it still felt premium. Okay, maybe some points taken off here, but what the heck, for the price I'm paying , I am already more than satisfied  Sound system comes with 2 tweeter, 4 speaker - bass is just nice    All the other gadgets are impressive, buttons respond well to my touch , just a bit disappointed there was no cruise control in the 1.6

Maintenance:
Took the maintenance sheet from SA, it's really quite affordable. RM130 for 1000km/5000km, and major 20,000km is about 600, and major 60000 is about 780. Bear in mind it's a C-segment car, and this price you're paying is very , very , very affordable.
Mojo factor:
Hah! Here's good one, believe it or not i saw a couple of chicks coming in with some uncles and first thing they went after - the Elantra. Also on the road, a C-segment car really makes a difference somewhat, people tend to "respect" you on the road more often, wont simply just turn and dash into your lane (which i find it rather dangerous).

Verdict:
Coming from an amateur driver, I must say Elantra really brought several notches up the charts. Frankly, try it yourself, and you'll be captivated by its beauty. I've booked the 1.6GLS Cheers!

aircond service is it the one they take your filter and blow it?

If you have enough money why not go for 1.8? Otherwise i think 1.6HS is good enough

depends on individual...for me , it is sufficient for my daily transport around city area

hi all, just collected my car yesterday......[attachmentid=2798894]

2.4x only applicable to 90% loan right ?

That's what the Public bank officer told me.

I asked him why mine 2.68, other people can get 2.4x ?
He said 2.4x is for those apply 90% loan only.
