QUOTE(l2k @ Aug 26 2012, 01:28 PM) Guess they should really revise the way they test the fuel consumption. Engine wise, japanese maybe still has the edge in low end torque I guess. Yup, korean cars have improved alot, so far very satisfied with the elantra, more than 4k milleage, no rattling, vibration, very solid car. Assembly quality seems to be better than some japanese rival. Only one complaint is the exhaust hissing sound is quite obvious when on hard acceleration (with audio turn off), don't know if any owner notice that. Went to SC to check they say it is normal exhaust sound, but as I was on a rush, I didn't further question. The exhaust hissing sound is normal I think, heard that sound on Tucson too. |

QUOTE(farizuan @ Aug 25 2012, 11:41 PM) I have booked HE 1.8 but after read the waiting period,i plan to cancel the booking. Better go for new Ford Focus. 2.0l 170hp,202n torque,rm115,888.. Ordered 1.8 Santorini blue in June supposed to arrive september. Now being told my colour is "special" must wait another 7 months. So no wonder everyone drive white in this country. My q number was 48/56 in July. What so hard make 48 cars??! Am also seriously considering new focus also. If the focus comes first I'm cancelling. Sadly both company managed by SD. May face same problem that side also |

I heard from Ford SA during Focus testdrive, the longest Ford have to wait is 2 months. Normally can get within a month. |

Still haven't place my order yet. Since the price increased without any additional feature and the waiting period is xxx long, just try my luck getting the ready stock!! No doubt this is a good car by this price tag but the marketing strategy really wt*.
Just felt like a " HOT CHICK: You want date me at least drive a BMW (Previous requirement lexus). Since the queue is very long now even you drive a BMW also need to wait and wait for the date. If cannot wait then is up to you.
lolx, what a joke.

Whats the best loan interest rates currently for the Elantra 1.8?
Added on August 27, 2012, 5:37 pmQUOTE(JC999 @ Aug 25 2012, 01:28 AM) cuz their weather there very different... if you drive a white.. it will turn black very fast..
just like in malaysia, everyday rain.. your black car becomes very dirty after that The rain affects white and dark colors. Only Silver holds up well against dirt. This post has been edited by cybermaster98: Aug 27 2012, 05:37 PM |

The reason being the max fuel sensor isnt located at the very top of the tank. Thats why the first bar drops the slowest in any car. Also, more fuel is lost when the tank is half empty compared to a almost full tank. |
