if you think Forte costs a really big amount of money to you.. I suggest you to look for other cars options which don't break your bank..
and do more test drive on each models that you're targeting..
and in case if you did that and you liked the Forte the most.. Forte to me is a well done car, probably the best choice of C Segment for me if you're looking for comfy, good interior space and easy to drive car.
I just kinda disappointed some Kia Service branch in West Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur).. inefficient way to assist customers and lack of knowledge..
perhaps I should try the other better ones which buddies here suggested to me for next service..
Please calculate your overall expenses and make sure you won't overspend too much for a car. Consider some hidden expenses for maintaining the car for years too.
And Kia Rio is also a great looking car and roomy enough to ferry a small family around. Hopefully it will sell maximum RM68k..
Hmmm... Yup, you are right abiut budget etc. Might buy myself a cheap but reliable car first, since I need to further to degree and thinking of buying a house. Bright advice by you mate...

Oh You are the TS choosing Almera, Vios and Forte?
As I told you, first thing when you get Forte, sell and change the Tyre and Rim. I heard can trade in RM1500. Then get lighter rim and good tyre probably.
This car is heavy and stable. That's why high FC. Cannot fight with Vios or Almera both are lighter about 1 tonne. This car 1.3 tonne with extra 300kg.
Most problem is left pull, and rattling sound. Not everyone kena. but can be fixed.
Not me, I just TT (Tumpang Thread). I'm looking for a car with big space. Vios are great but the rear seat are too small even I'm with 1.63m height feel that the car are smaller than Myvi. While Almera satisfy me the most in B segment but the spec, hmmm... Anyway, better try to avoid other car as this is Forte thread. Don't want to be bashed.

Thanks guys...
