QUOTE(vnair @ Aug 30 2012, 03:20 PM) Thanks bro, for the advice. It was a little overwhelming when I first got behind the wheel. The seat is very low and couldnt see much of the bonnet. I'm so used to my Naza Ria where I have a very commanding view of everything. The K5 should have come with a front camera Well no matter how high u adjust, u will never see the front. So dont adjust it too high. Just train yourself to judge distances better. I too was overwhelmed the 1st time. I had to get 3 of my friends to become lookouts when i got stuck in a tight spot. But now, im quite an expert with parking already. Reverse parking is the easiest option now with the reverse camera which is quite accurate. Plus the side view mirrors are quite good as the number of blind spots have been reduced drastically compared to previous Kia models.Got a little more comfortable after driving it for a while. Really looking forward to many, many hours of driving pleasure. |

QUOTE(K5WHITE @ Aug 30 2012, 01:52 PM) Complete Knocked Down, assembly here in malaysia, lower tax Just to clarify, there will be no price reduction, even if it is CKD (if there is such a plan at all, as at this moment, they are just unsubstantiated rumours circulating in the market) CBU, complete built Unit, complete unit import, current K5 is CBU. A typical example is KIA Sportage and KIA Sorento. Both models were previously CBU (fully imported) but are now CKD (local assembly) but there is no price reduction. Both models also retained the KIA badge instead of Naza The only model that had enjoyed lowered tax is NAZA Forte, which was already badged under Naza from Day 1. Naza has completely changed their policy from the past where car prices had suddenly dropped when they launched the CKD version i.e Kia Carnival to Naza Ria or KIA Carens to Naza Citra. They have realized that price consistency is key to its resale value and would not repeat the same mistake of the past. Just my 2cents. KS Loh |

Do you believe the price will decrease? Imagine what will happen to Proton and Peroadua . The tax of foreign cars will not decrease, unless proton and peroadua is being sold to foreign car makers. This is why AP is being introduce , it is to protect our national car. |
