Is the Cerato replacement for the Forte ?

I do agree mazda won't sell cheap for their new mazda 3, look at mazda 6, its pricing is way above a Japanese car should offer. That's the reason why I didn't go for it, too expensive and not worth money

pay so much....service so bad....koreans

Which car? Looks like most sedan didnt fare well in that test... 2012 Camry scored a Poor rating.

u all must forgotten the CX-5 CKD Vs CX-5 CBU case..where by cheaper RM15K than CBU unit.....they removed  9 Bose speakers system and sunroof (estimated cost around rm15K) plus no tribos paint coating and downgraded the imported rim from 19" to  17"..... same story to inokom Elantra, no change in spec but they did revised the price b4..additional 2K for 1.6 and RM3K more for 1.8

glittering metal is it sth like grayish color? Cos at the showroom, there no this color.

Actually underpowered abit if compare to altis 1.8 (both same segment). I got drive my dad's altis. Altis feel more power

anyone knows what is the halogen bulb size for 1.6 headlights? for the main and parking light...

Well , I just had my Cerato 1.6 for less than 2 days . Excellent driving experience .
However , i have a few question and hope you all can help

1. The central lock , does it illuminate at night ? Well , only lock got light , but the unlock button have no light .
It is normal or mine is spoilt.

2. During the night , i change my light to auto . But when i turn off my engine , the light does not turn off itself .
Shouldn't it be auto off ? Or i need to off it manually

3. By the way, when i buy this car , i thought it should have the 3 years free service attached . How come i need to go back and collect the free service coupon from my sales guy ?

I believe to change the car is nearly impossible. KIA wouldn't even change my car despite the fact it has a confirmed oil leak and they have no idea what to do.
But I believe for your case, you might want to look up a professional detailer and see if they can remove it. Car's international unfortunately don't fall under the category of a detailer. So you might have more luck with someone who's really into it and perhaps they can give you a better suggestion on how to move forward.

However, if the paint has already corroded, then, that might be tough, even for a professional detailer. Perhaps you could share some pictures under daylight for us to have a look in case someone might have a suggestion.
