Zakuii 1st Gear May 9, 2004 Share May 9, 2004 Went to Compass Point and saw that Kia is having a roadshow there. Heard it's there since Monday. On display are 2 new models, the 1l Picanto and 3.5l V6 Sorento. The Picanto is going for like $200+ per month for 10 yrs, and Sorento, $600+ per month for 10 yrs. The Sorento is such a huge monster, one will need to stand on chairs just to clean the roof. With such affordable price, I see a lot of interested folks surrounding the Picanto. I din bother to get the price list cos' not interested in them. Are there any catch to the prices? Sounds too good to believe. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother, the $200 plus for the Rio is for 10 months and not 10 years so after 10 years, the monthly payment will be revert back to $500 plus per month. You must get your facts right before you made any judgement or comments on the Roadshow! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaweed 1st Gear May 10, 2004 Share May 10, 2004 ya the 200 thing is a bull sxxt....they offer people some kind of rebate...so the amount of money from the rebate will be used to offset your mthly installment...untill the amount run out lor....which i think if i don't heard wrongly....the sales person telling a customer around 6 mths....if really 200 every mth for 10 years...even if it's for the rio or that 1 liter car...i think the queue will go round compasspoint at least a few hundred rounds....

You must get your facts right before you made any judgement or comments on the Roadshow! So you see... the adverts C&C puts on the cars are misleading, not me. I was passing by and caught a glance of the monthly payment on the car. I did not bother to ask for pricelist or more info. If I had asked for more info, then I will know that what they put on the cars are sales gimmicks! But i must say the adverts sure work, cos' there are lot of people crowding around the cars.

Seaweed 1st Gear May 10, 2004 Share May 10, 2004 i think Singaporean must remember what our gov tell us " there is no free lunch/dinner/supper in singapore"...and like what i say....200+ per mth for 10 yr...maybe not just go round compasspoint few hundred round....you will suddenly see half of the singapore turn up in compasspoint....maybe a baby will want to buy 1 too...

Mydotcom 1st Gear May 11, 2004 Share May 11, 2004 Don't really have a good impression of C&C. Esp from the experiences of the Kia owners when they send their car in for servicing/repairs Thank god for C&C. Makes me appreciate my agent more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mydotcom 1st Gear May 11, 2004 Share May 11, 2004 True... But the agent's attitude and service quality will have a much more impact on us than the car's fault. Vios owners also get the same service from C&C. The only way to get good service is to drive a merc into C&C Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me appreciate my agent more The sales person told me that it costs only alightly over S$100+ to service the Picanto at C&C, using synthetic oil.
