Hi.. Actually I'm new here and will have my Cerato KX next week. Should I read all the comments regarding my next car, I found out few positive and negative points from members. I do research a lot before i make decision to buy iot feel satisfy without any hesitation. Many would compare to City V Spec, Vios, Mazda3 bla bla bla.. I would like to highlight few things from my view and experiences also from my expectation earlier.
1. KX reduces 10k from its predecessor with removing some kind of what most people think is important esp Safety Measure and fancy stuffs. To me, it is fair to Kia to remove all the devices and accessories as long as it didn't revise the main engine/system. Light, visor, memory seat, paddle shift l, auto climate etc to me is enough, so more people would afford to buy it. But, I'm a bit disappoint of the removal of paddle shift and auto dim rear mirror. But still not affect my interest on that particular car.
2. I drove Preve 1.6 (not CFE) before, i experience the same thing, comparing to the premium version (K3 here). Without ESP and TCS, also Turbocharger, still i can manage to drive comfortly, carrying my parents, in laws and siblings, so they can have a good rest while travelling. Still I can reach 200km/h (on few occassion) without having some major problem or faultness.
3. FC is also the main topic to be argue by members. Why mad when u drive this kind of car mostly in the city? Me personally have reached 5.6l/km at highway for 400km distance, cruising 90-110, and driving on the slipstream. Driver have the special bond with the car, can feel whether is consume too much gas or not, knows that the car is a bit heavy compare to the smaller power inside. Go buy K-car instead of this.
4. RV - am not experiencing any of this since i've targeted a long term use.
5. After sales service - first time own a foreign car. Cant say too much. Later post.
I know some other people are like me, still searching the best option to buy a stylish sedan. But to me this KX with this price and also huge discount, u should get one. IMHO, if u're looking for speed with full safety devices, and have more money, go buy Lancer/Ferrari/Maserati/Audi or other car instead. This car is for one who have a mid family cant afford too much or have a lil monetary constraints, often travel long distance and looking to upgrade the comfort and style and experience, I would not hesitate to recommend this car. Go to showroom immediately, this week of cos, have a look, and place order before it ran out of stock (discounted one).
With regards, peace.

Anybody here does update the DVD Infotainment system? or anybody did switch the skin/interface? or somebody do attempts to install UVO system? BTW, how can I play a HD quality video (720p above) on the infotainment system? TQ..

Thanks mate.. But I've tried to play without switch to camera reverse mode, but still lagging, like play at a low end devices. Even when I just open it, still the same.
