From the booklet it stated RM1500 for Agard SN50. I did for 1k for all windows. got it few days so not sure if it's good or bad.no issue with smart tag so far,will check out my own gps and the one bundle with new HU.

driving experience is good as it doesn't looks so dark when you looking out from ur car.heat wise so far still ok,need more sunlight to test it out.

Hi, bro epo pls add me into the list. 2.0sx clear white.

Super happy, just got my car this afternoon. It actually all starts with me liking Forte and checking out websites to find for offers. It was early January if I've not mistaken. Jotted down 7-8 SA's contact number and called each and every one of them, and one of them was Edwin Loh (Motorman). His offer was like the second best. (Yes, I know, kind of the same story again). But after asking the SA which offers me the best deal some questions, I feel like she is very not professional. She actually give alot of excuses for all things. Example, she said she wasn't giving TV because there are alot of problems with the TV, blablablabla. (they had promotion for giving out TV back then) And when I ask why not giving door handle tray, she actually say not good quality, will drop out and some other stupid stuff (I hate people bullsh*tting, how can that even drop out, it has got double sided tape and it fits into the hole). So at the end, I decided to go for Edwin's deal, which isn't too bad compared to that SA. I called Edwin and asked question and he answers them nicely and professionally. I told him I wouldn't be getting that car yet because I haven't got my driving license yet. He said it's okay and I can get back to him whenever I'm ready to book my car. Gave me the address and everything and said I should give him a call if I want to visit.

So few months passed, I got my license in Feb, but my dad said that it was too early to get me a new car. It was until May or so, I contacted Edwin again. He actually remembered me. He still talked nicely and didn't feel annoyed or whatever. Went over to Edwin's showroom in Seri Kembangan, asked about some stuffs and made the booking on the same day. My case was also a little special, because my dad is actually paying for a Myvi, and I'm working to pay for the difference for the Forte. He was nice enough to help me calculate the monthly installment for Myvi and Forte for me as well. So I know how much I need to pay every month. Such a nice guy. Then, I had to wait until mid July for my 18th birthday so that I can sign my HP agreement. After all those, went there and sign papers, after about 1 week, he informed that car is ready for collection on a Thursday, dad say to collect on Saturday. And he knew I was super eager about my car, he actually told me to get on a train to somewhere near Seri Kembangan and he will fetch me from there. I didn't want to trouble him so I passed. Oh yes. He actually cleared up a RM100 for me as well, because my number plate which I bought had already expired due to having to wait for my birthday.

So I collected my car today. Went to Raytech to do tinting which is near my area, and had been issued a voucher by Edwin. Asked for more discount and the guy called Edwin up and see whether he is willing or not. (Because you and I know better that all these SA gets commission from all this tinting vouchers, even after all those discounts, they still earn alot, so giving commission will be okay. So if you have any friends which does tinting, you don't need all these vouchers and yet you can get cheaper price.) And again he was so nice to say okay. His commission is reduced to give us discount. Not much, but still, better than nothing.

So overall, from day one which I called up to today, I'm very satisfied with Edwin being my SA. I would proudly and loudly say that he is the best SA which I've ever spoken to or meet. He made my first car purchasing experience such an interesting one. So anyone who is going to get a Forte for raya or whatsoever, go and get it from him. I can assure you that he will be giving best deal and best service.

And if you must know who is that shitty SA, pls PM me so you can avoid her. And I've been a silent reader since V10 or 11. Those who think that this is an account made just to help Edwin, it's okay. You have the choice of not believing me. but it's your loss

Been enjoying my ride so far

RANDOM OFF TOPIC FACT : my number opened up today in consolation and my dad bought it. He is a happy man now

ur door handle trays actually fits nicely into teh hole? mine don't and yes, they do come out even with the double-sided tape if u pull it with reasonable strength (not very hard).

great story bro..haha anyway i'm getting my car too from Edwin next friday..looks like we're in the club d..haha

Hi guys, I'm speechless. Thousand thank you to you guys for speaking so highly of me. It meant a lot and make all my effort worth more then any word can describe. My most satisfying moment is seeing every of my customer taking delivery of their brand new Forte.

Anyone who are interest in buying a Forte please PM me for the best offer and service.

Rgds,

tukar sport spring, void warranty tak?

Apparently, the guy who changed my tires to new Michelin PS3 told me that
my front passenger side chamber to adjust -1.13°. Doing so will suggest
better straight line steering feel and also eliminates Forte's infamous pull left steering feel
which I'm having also.

I do not want my tires to makan sebelah at the inside after prolonged use, so I rejected his so-called preferred setting and to go for default which has all round optimal wear and performance on each tyre.

There are 4 minor issues I need to live with my 6 months old Forte.
1) Lalat noise sound on front driver and passenger adjustable seatbelt at B-pillars while driving on
speedbreaker strips / road imperfection surfaces.
2) Zzzzzz and slight wind whistles from the front dash and windscreen somewhere above 105kmph.
3) Not 100% reliable reverse camera and LCD screen built-in rear view mirror.
4) Noticeable squeaking sound when leaning against the driver's seat backrest. It squeaks like 50 yrs old car when first day I brought the car home.
(SC and also myself unzipped the half leather seat upholstery and sprayed lots of WD40 inside behind, noise eliminated about 80%.. still there are upper parts I cannot reach with WD40. Defective or rusty Active Headrest mechanism I think..)

All in all.. Forte is a comfortable and fun car to drive, but doesn't feel good to live with all 4 mentioned above.

Added on August 5, 2012, 4:10 amhey bro, congrats on your purchase !
mine is 2.0 white too yay !!
you've made the right decision on Forte 2.0 instead of Myvi
how's your new ride treating you ?

Added on August 5, 2012, 4:12 amMy rear back-up camera problem solved during 1st service in SC on March. What they did was just unplug the socket and reconnect. It stays functional perfectly until recently for once I select reverse gear, the green LED blinking problem is back and no image appear on the screen.

But when I opened and closed the rear door, the back-up camera image comes back alive. So far no problem since then.

It seems that my car's Reverse Camera system is not so reliable. How can I describe this to SC and ensure they can fix it to 100% defect-free ? Any sifus here care to comment ? TQ !!

My 3 weeks old Forte has the pull left issue, no.1 and no. 2.

Pull left issue - already did realignment.. not much difference.. perhaps need to replace chamber nut?
No. 1 and no. 2 - trying to live with them.. afraid SC will make them worse after complaining..

Overall.. still a good investment..

Fellow Fortezens..

Planning to get ARB or 2point Rear Strut Bar for my Forte.. may I know which one will give better handling? Already installed a Front Strut Bar.. thanks..

Been reading 122 pages from early morning. CANT WAIT to get my Forte. Already book the car, hope the loan is ok and can get the car before raya! Luckily, i appoint the famously KS LOH as my SA

booked 1.6 or 2.0 ?

for those who change to PS3 tyre...no regret at all. i have been using from day 1 (straight away change it after getting a car) ...now its almost 1 year 5 month @ 54k km. its very grippy and yet holding good on wet surface. very recommended.
