My 2 centsThe car is worth for money, if mod here & there, the car will consider expensive. then straight away buy more expensive car. Any comment ?? Modding and make up (accessorising) to me is 2 different thing... Most of the so called modding understood by you are merely fall under accessorising... Which is to my understanding the cost is not like a bomb... While to those extreme modders, it is merely for self satisfaction... those poeple who buy expensive GTR still mod their car what...

'small mod' is like make up mah... for example, some ppl dun wax/gel their hair but some did, some wear jacket during daytime in msia etc....

If the price of K3 really shoots up to the 90 - 100k bracket, I think the old forte rv won't suffer much.

Yaa..i speculate that the 1.6SX K3 will cost no less than 90k & the 2.0SX will be no less than 105k. If the K3 pricing regime is still the same with the current Forte, i will be in deep shock actually. & if my speculation is true, i agree with u that our current Forte second hand price wont suffer much |

QUOTE(g88 @ Feb 20 2013, 09:50 PM) I heard dun have 2.0... you're right,they will be using the existing 1.6 unit with some tweaks namely the Gamma engine with the 1.8 Nu unit from the elantra... somehow they have phased out the Theta II (in my opinion is a crappy engine for a 2.0 N/A) so it might be a good thing.. |

but bro iz, i don't think they will raise the price too much coz it would directly go headon with Sime Darby, from what we can see their pricing is always higher than KIA's so i think it will still be somewhere around the 8xk-100k price bracket

Or no one will buy RIO. |

QUOTE(keagan @ Feb 20 2013, 10:18 PM) you're right, If that's the case though, i still believe that the K3 price will be on the higher side than the current Forte. Anyway..we will know it sooner or later...they will be using the existing 1.6 unit with some tweaks namely the Gamma engine with the 1.8 Nu unit from the elantra... somehow they have phased out the Theta II (in my opinion is a crappy engine for a 2.0 N/A) so it might be a good thing.. P/s : if Forte 2.0 theta II NA engine is crappy, i believe the same engine used in mitsubishi lancer GT is also crappy in your opinion right?
