Lurpsexx 6th Gear December 7, 2016 Share December 7, 2016 Ok, thanks...so SX is more value for money? I think only for very limited numbers of SX Sports with the Sun Roof.. that's the highest specs K3 brought into SG so far... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multi 3rd Gear December 7, 2016 Share December 7, 2016 I think only for very limited numbers of SX Sports with the Sun Roof.. that's the highest specs K3 brought into SG so far... Wonder what's the OMV for the Sun roof version. SE told me CnC no longer bringing in th SR version to keep the OMV low. So how much OMV for the SR sport model?

Jzachlee 1st Gear December 7, 2016 Share December 7, 2016 (edited) The SX Sports with Sun Roof also come with factory-fitted HID headlights. Edited December 7, 2016 by Jzachlee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sotong1977 4th Gear December 8, 2016 Share December 8, 2016 (edited) Ok, thanks...so SX is more value for money?Personally I feel it depends on the person's needs and desire. If the person like all or most of the additional features (and higher omv), then he/she may find it value for money. I do not need or like most of the SX additional features e.g. boot lip, welcome light, aircon seat, chrome handle, aircon glove box, boot auto open function, front n back parking assist, blink blink interior (yes look inside EX n SX and you will notice immediately the difference in some of the interior finish). Features that I like are memory seat and climate control but I decided to save 7K rather than to have these 2. Moreover, more electronics equate to higher chance of something failing i.e. money spent Edited December 8, 2016 by Sotong1977 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how much OMV for the SR sport model? i think $19.5K~~ ba.. See Here = http://www.mycarforum.com/topic/2690023-kia-k3-owners-check-in/page-85 , post 1687 Think the FL k3 no more sunroof for SX. Yup.. the 1st batch K3 no sun roof, then came the 2nd or 3rd batches with highest specs K3 (SX Sports), then C&C wanna fight the price war, so bring in later K3s with low specs to lower the OMV/price.. now FL all no high specs as this SX Sports.. Only SX Sports hv sunroof Edited December 8, 2016 by Lurpsexx Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thecarboy302 3rd Gear December 8, 2016 Share December 8, 2016 Yup. But those that i listed are visible externally. If wanna go deeper, there are plenty more. Thats y the 7k different ☺ Comfort features are okay to not have but the exclusion of ESC and VSM on EX model is a huge oversight in my opinion, ESC is standard across all 3 trims in the Elantra.

Moreover, more electronics equate to higher chance of something failing i.e. money spent Yes, you're right.. depends on user needs n wants... Some of these items can't be retrofitted to the EX model (e.g. aircon memory seats, sun roof etc), so if u are looking to add these later on to the EX model, I think its better to get the original equipment in the SX model as these are factory fitted and won't have integration issues if other 3rd parties installed them later... So its up to the buyer to cater not only to their immediate needs, but also to take into account their future wants (i.e. mods). Then they can weigh if its better to buy at SX level or the cheaper EX model. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhondafit 1st Gear December 8, 2016 Share December 8, 2016 Anybody change the headlights to led type? May i know whats the damages and how is the throw? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one feature i would like. But it is also something that will lull the driver into a false sense of security such that he/she might not practise defensive driving. Had once encountered 1 taxi driver who was so cocksure that the abs on his car can stop it in time in an emergency he said he can chiong without worry.

Anybody change the headlights to led type? May i know whats the damages and how is the throw? my ride is on LEDs. some old pics taken when i first installed them beginning of 2016 look at the last pic for the light throw. It's definitely not as long a throw as HIDs, but definitely better than any "white" halogens. sDSC09350 by ricleosg, on Flickr sDSC09389 by ricleosg, on Flickr sDSC09358 by ricleosg, on Flickr Edited December 8, 2016 by ricleosg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhondafit 1st Gear December 8, 2016 Share December 8, 2016 Doing lots of research in the internet. Some comes with fan and some do not. Most with fan built in do not have an extra ic box which is easier for installation. Those without fan will have "metal tail" and extra ic box and wire which may be difficult to stuff all inside the headlight holder. Pls correct me if i am wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
