Hi buydirect, seem I did not receive your pm, can you resend again.

next week going to get my cerato from Buydirect@KSLoh.

Patiently answer all my question and request.
definitely a reliable SA, providing excellent service on helping me getting my first car.

will there be a new model coming next year?

Thank you.

There is only the facelift model for next year. Kia Korea has yet to launch any ALL NEW model for Cerato, not in Korea nor any overseas market.

Just a survey , how many of you would prefer buying a 2 door Cerato Koup 1.6 Turbo with GDI engine compared to a 4 Door Cerato K3 2.0 with MPI engine, given the same price point ?

Do you rate the engine performance & sportiness as a higher priority more than the practicallity/convenience of a 4 Door sedan?

Some facts to consider
2.0 K3
Max power 161ps @ 6500 rpm
Max torque 194 Nm@4800 rpm

1.6 T-GDI
Max power 204ps @ 6000 rpm
Max torque 265 Nm@4500 rpm
0-100 km/h in 7.4 seconds

Nice car n ads

guys any good tyre recommendation for this car? not so noisy one..

I will prefer the Koup as a second car if I already have a 4 doors family sedan.

If I'm single, will probably prefer Koup if the price is similar to the 4 door sedan.

Practicality over performance after having family. As much as our heart want performance, we can't neglect practically when our wife keeping eyes on our purchase lol

Pm latest promotion pls, thank you.

Can I suggest to change the topic's profile photo to a K3 or KIA picture?
Instead of leaving it empty

Not sure which topic profile photo you are referring to...mind show me how to change it with the detail steps?

The small Avatar picture at the left of Title. Sorry to say that I don't know how to change it either.

Thanks for the info, but my computer screen only shows a red square dot for ALL of the topic avatar. Would like to change it if I know how.

Hi, newbie here, just got my red cerato 1.6 from @Buydirect few days ago..thanks a lot Mr Loh for the good service..got a chance meeting Mr Edwin too..highly recommended SA as mentioned by all here..

Im pretty happy with d ride so far, quite an upgrade from jazz hybrid.. had done just over 200km..my only complaint is there are annoying scratches behind d door panel, i think occured during d tinting..

Can anybody advise how to turn off the speed dependent volume control? Been reading d thick manual and stuff on internet but somehow i cant find d setting..

Thanks n looking forward to learn from all d sifus here..

Happy New Year 2017
