Jl1500k Clutched April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 (edited) tat wat has been holding me back from considering avante...even though the PRice is lowest for 1.6... Is individual preference, if just want travel from point A to point B then is a very good buy liao. Save few 4/5k for petrol.

Jl1500k Clutched April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 its a new model. prices will drop after the forte has been in the mkt for a while. After launch more than 6 months it may drop below $40K. Due to recession and demand is low better monitor till june then buy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitvip Supersonic April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 (edited) dude, buy Forte lah...look sporty and young...2 to 3k than avante Agree with you! Advante cannot fight with Forte really. With Forte's higher OMV, it is even more value for $! Edited April 1, 2009 by Fitvip Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jl1500k Clutched April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 Agree with you! Advante cannot fight with Forte really. With Forte's higher OMV, it is even more value for $! Forte target at youngster and Avante target at uncle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tohto Hypersonic April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 Forte is 4k+ almost 5k more than Avante now. But Forte OMV is higher and equipment level is better....with ESP somemore. Even Civic 1.8 don't have ESP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willeo Neutral Newbie April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 Forte target at youngster and Avante target at uncle no wonder i like Avante more than Forte... really, I'm an uncle lah... actually i like Altis too... but not worth the large premium for a tom-yam-nese Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigershark1976 Turbocharged April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 KIA?? if u r getting from C*C, good luck with u... they are famous of having very strick warranty T&C... and premium price of servicing even for a cheap korean ride... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigershark1976 Turbocharged April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 With Japanese cars just a few thousand dollars above Korean cars, why not switch to a Japanese marque? ermm... bro, u r techincally rite, a few thousand more... your few thousand is equal to 10K + more?? Avante 1.6L is 37k... think only J1.6L Japs car below 50K that I can think off is Lancer GLX ... maybe there are more... which im not aware... but confirm not at the price below 40K,,, Not only the price... Japs car like Altis cannot compare with Avante in terms of built quality... take a look on Altis plastic & cheap skate interior and u know what I meant. no offence to Altis owner, my vios quality is even worst... just trying to tell the truth... the Japs car is no longer the same as last time...

Because Vios and Altis are Tomyam car. Even the Kimchi is better tomyam soup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willeo Neutral Newbie April 1, 2009 Share April 1, 2009 (edited) Well... I have a colleague that swears by proton... from saga to wira to gen2, now looking forward to proton MPV Exora... but at the end of the day, as long as you are happy with your ride... that's all that matters... so what if it's a sushi, kimchi, tomyam, Made in Malaysia or china... Even among Americano or Conti cars there's differentiation among those made in original countries and those from eastern Europe... even filipina Edited April 1, 2009 by Willeo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picanto 3rd Gear April 2, 2009 Share April 2, 2009 Agree with you! Advante cannot fight with Forte really. With Forte's higher OMV, it is even more value for $! right now forte price is still high and its not really good value for $. it will sure drop after half a year or so.

Windchoco 1st Gear April 2, 2009 Share April 2, 2009 Agree with you! Advante cannot fight with Forte really. With Forte's higher OMV, it is even more value for $! Not necessary... FC leh?
