Legacyb4 Neutral Newbie August 17, 2004 Share August 17, 2004 (edited) Why not try the Getz 1.6 3dr manual now only $58.8K . Preppy looks with brushed alum. trimmings & 195/22-14 s/rims & Falken tires. I tested the car & on 2nd gear can pushed up to 100kph with no obtrusive engine drone & the suspension is firm & stable (not soft like Vios) . Rear seats foldable too. However no air bags, which can be bad or good.....can change to momo or something fancier.. Edited August 17, 2004 by Legacyb4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver_blade Turbocharged August 17, 2004 Share August 17, 2004 Test drove the 1.3 A&M getz too. Like the built quality and styling. Good pick up, tho a little noisy...but still consider very well insulated when compare to Kia Rio. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacyb4 Neutral Newbie August 17, 2004 Share August 17, 2004 (edited) The SE asked me to rev till 6000rpm til 100kph to show me its smoothness....so try lor! Must say the Koreans are improving their quality & build. 1.6 Getz DOHC engine their own ones unlike in the past & has good low end torque max @ 3200rpm & lively mid-range.

M2vrm Neutral Newbie August 17, 2004 Share August 17, 2004 Hi, Having M2 for almost 3 months and all I can say is Go for it. M2 a class on its own, handling super. Over-priced? No. not at all, with all the sport-kits, leather seat and 15 inch rims. Was considering the M2 with Jazz and finally settle for M2. Found Jazz over, over-priced compare to M2. Don't me hor, just my sum on the 2 rides. cheers, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnut Clutched August 17, 2004 Share August 17, 2004 Do a check on the OMV and selling prices of both makes and you would be able to roughly estimate the mark ups..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver_blade Turbocharged August 17, 2004 Share August 17, 2004 It's okay one. I did that plus others when I test drive a car. Most car perform alright when drive normally. It's only when you rev the car, take fast corner, etc that you start to see the diff. I usually tell the sales person my intention 1st. The high reving is okay if the engine is run-in properly. Actually, car should be rev occasionally to remove built-up carbon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
