Komoco has added new cost cutting onto the Avantes again. New Avantes now come with:

 

- no soft padding on the doors

- no silver interior trim (replaced by black metal items that look cheapo nana, and makes the interior feel like a taxi)

 

So... The Forte's now the best!

If you like a bit more Jap car feel, go for Hyundai

If you like a bit more Euro car feel, go for Kia,

But they are not Jap or Conti car, they are the Korean !

 

Personally,at this time, given only Avante and Forte, I will go for the Forte

However, its alright if the marketing dept makes this mistake for once. But they have made this mistake last time during 2005 when the Sonata was launched, to compete with camry, with an interior as bare as plain bread. And Mr Ron Song still expects to sell 250 - 350 Sonatas monthly at that time too. He should just go die.

 

At least C&C did make an effort to improve languishing models like the Carens with the new Elite trim. Customers dont only look at results. They see efforts too. Because the efforts done by the dealer is a significant yardstick to measure how committed the company is to the customers.

I went there and its the same for me.. until I walked over to one of them to check trade in value for my vios, then they decided to entertain me. Went for a test drive, ask some questions the SE dunno how to answer.

 

Due to the weight of the car, I dun really like the acceleration... too used to my vios. IMHO, it felt like a lancer EX 1.5 when I floor the ride.

The 2.0 should be able to fit your requirements.

How about the before 08 Honda jazz. i think second hand now can get around 40k+.

Why TS don't consider that ?

 

Side track a bit.. how you guys compare between FORTE , AVANTE and JAZZ 07 ?

 

I am looking to change car too. Don't really like the JAZZ 08 look. Kind of weird looking car.
