Dlar2 Neutral Newbie November 21, 2010 Share November 21, 2010 Anyone went for a test drive? I think it is a better buy than taiyota. More air bags but only cost one grand more, quite worth it. I did not test drive the car but sat in it outside the showroom, the back seat is spacious. Any comments? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renault Fluence Its a conti car, joint develop engine wif Nissan , assembled in South Korea. In south korea, its called Renault Samsung SM3 But when its exported, its called the Renault Fluence. FYI, Renault owned Nissan's shares... Last time Samsung Motors have ties wif Nissan. Due to the acqusition of Nissan, Reanult bought over the shares in Samsung Motors as well. This lead to this tie up. Side track abit.... Chevrolet Cruze is also known as Daewoo Lacetti Premiere.... Daewoo is also under GM... Its also built in South Korea btw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expertz 1st Gear January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 check out the review at sgcarmart.

Cutebeat Clutched January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 Grow up or read more, 70% of cars can be considered half-farked if going by your standard.. u driving a chevy?perhaps u dun know much about the perception of auto-industry here.no one would get a half-fxxk car especially those of brands like bmw,benz,audi.they want it to be straight from Germany.go drive your chevy and imagine u are driving a american muscle car.

Vooth 2nd Gear January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 I buy a car based on my ability to pay, follow by the design and so forth. Yes, I am driving a cruze and I bought it knowing that it was assembled in S. Korea. BMW, Mercs etc also have plants in other countries, so are those driving S.African contis also driving half-farked cars? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vooth 2nd Gear January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 (edited) I seriously don't understand such perceptions that buy conti cars must buy from country of origin. I would like to pose a question to those who think this way...will you buy a merc from C&C, manufactured in S.Africa with full aftersales support or from a PI, confirmed from Germany? With so much electronics nowadays, how safe will you feel if things were to go wrong and outside ws do not have the necessary diagnostic equipment to deal with them or even if they can, will they warrant such parts like a AD will? How about recalls? Sure C&C will entertain you, but last in queue and gotta pay! Jeez... Edited January 11, 2011 by Vooth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
