u know this is facelifted version of the new gen sorento, right?
so the design differs from the 'previous' one, minimal at most.

the said reason cud be one of the minor reasons. but main reason is the refined driving of the civic. and of course i wud admit brand strength (which translates into a very good after sales package - good servicing networks, good replacement parts, etc etc) okay this may sound bias but that guy that bought the K5 will freely admit the korean makes driving pleasure is pretty much a few notch DOWN compared to the established brand. yes yes yes they are getting there the koreans, but as we speak now, they are still down there.

to counter balance perhaps my bias, then i wud say out there are a lot of choices of cars. fiestas are great little cars. and mazdas are superb.



and that guy who bought forteh, okay good luck on him. but i suspect its down to the fact he drove a spectra before. with due respect, spectra was not a good vehicle to be in, in the first place. so the transition from a shitttty ride to a so-so ride perhaps, meant so much to him. so okay good luck. i hope he didnt bought the awful first gens of the fortehs.

this is a very classic, common case for nitpicking.
that refined driving experience is somehow agreed by most naturals.
and of course by that guy who bought K5.

sure. u got to buy something u think worth your cents. good tip.
