to all forte user, need some advices here
I am planning to get a new Forte , but unsure whether i should go for 1.6 or 2.0
so would like to ask all the Sifu here for some advices:

How much difference between the FC for 1.6SX and 2.0
(1 full tank can go how many km for both city& highway)??

i am looking for a comfort& quite drive, not for sport and speed.
the reason i prefer for 2.0 is it has Auto-Cruise ( I travel a lot on highway).
but i worry 2.0 FC will be very high compare to 1.6SX
for normal use to work and some long distance travel during holiday(KL- Johor), 1.6 enough?
will 1.6 be under power?

After i got the car, what should i do to increase the performance and FC?
should i terus go nearby shop to change my tyre/ rims?

any forte users here know Kia Kepong Branch? is it good?
I actually went to Selayang Kia SC, meet an SA, he gave me better offer(Extra 1k discount) but i need to get my car somewhere in Kepong instead of from the Selayang Kia SC, feel weird for that. Is it safe to buy like this?

Thank you for your advices

Where is your location?. You can try to check with KIA shah alam. SRI MS sdn bhd (worldwide business park. nearby bulatan kayangan. beside federal hiway. not glenmerie one).
I get mine from there. SA very easy to nego. not pushy even near end of year. means tak kejar sales saje. Can help to find best loan offer for you. in case u dont like the interest rate for bank. Offers and freebies oso not bad.
what I get for free:
-bodykit
-"K" emblem all 6 + 1 steering
- 3M tinted (5 yeasrs warranty). siap pasang. no voucher and go kedai sendiri then kena ketuk like shiss.
- MOBIS door visor. original
- leather seat (but i didn't take and trade with cash. means get rebate RM1500)
- standard showroom freegift. umbrella, TnG. fulltank.

Thanks for your advice. I am from Selayang area.
Shah alam is bit too far.

If the FC between 1.6& 2.0 is not much different, i wil prefer to take 2.0 which giv more power. But heard tat 2.0 FC is 10-12L/100km, is it true?

Yes it is true when your daily route will be traffic jam crawling bumper to bumper at 80%
Outstation drive could be as low as 5.8L/100km with constant 120kmph cruise control for 3 hours.. don't stop for kencing or buying drinks at R&R

AH Bear, yours is Forte 2.0?
your car can get 5.8L/100km on highway drive with cruise control 120km/j?
at the moment, i drive a lot on highway, if on highway can get aroud 6-7L/100km, very good ah!!!
