hi bro..
finally your placed a booking. I read fews of your post. My situation exactly like you. Not seldom change car, dilemma between focus vs k3, test drove both...still cant decide. Last week, i test drove the elantra 1.8..overall quite good. But if compare the specs k3 wins...what factor that make u go for k3 over focus...i like focus most but i still not able to take the risk on it powershift.

Hiya then should have go yam cha together. Well I seriously like the focus handling. When you step on the accelerator it really go. The stearing wheel is really responsive. Other that that k3 wins. Neater interior. 8" display and gps rear camera. In terms of exterior looks I think they look pretty much the same. One thing I really cannot take the risk is the power shift. I might be wrong but with the grinding sound something is wearing it down and in time it will wear off. Only thing lacking in the serato is the driving experience.  That it.
Between elantra and k3 I think k3 have better specs and cheaper. Bacilli same engine I think

Can no problem...for me the only setback for focus is powertrain, the rest i still can accept. K3, overall is good, most valueable car i would say...

Same here if not for the transmission I would have gone for ford. It's also cheaper (not the +). If you can stretch a little can consider Mazda 3. For me the 25k was a little to wide a gap

M3 is out of my budget...mind to share what offer u got for k3..tq

My experience so far has been generally positive. Especially the one at Motorman's place. The guys do a pretty good job and fast. And the service manager is also quite an insightful person.

The FB groups also seems to indicate generally positive experience with quite a few service centers.
