Actually C&C charges are really high but of cuz you know your car is good with them. I was with them on 2 packages and switched to my own servicing outside.. Really much cheaper but need to find a good and reliable workshop.

My mechanic hates me everytime i change car. He will always say 3 years no earn my money. But i will always tell him, free servicing u dun want meh? Lol....usually i will go back to my regular workshop after 3 years. Parts/labour outside cheaper...:)

i wonder if there is any mod we can do, for example make the spring that supports the horn button looser/weaker, so it's easier to depress, and hence can be lightly tapped

That'll void your warranty.

that's just the steering wheel horn button spring and not any electrical or structural elements of the car, no need to be that paranoid.

Hi K3 Owners, good afternoon,

I have narrowed my shortlist to K3 Sprot and Elantra Elite, although I'm more inclined to K3, but hard to give up elantra, tested drive both, every functions and equipments are almost on a par, price wise K3 102k vs Elantra 97k,

I have not time go through the 95 pages comments on K3, can anyone summarize why you choose K3 over Elantra, Altis, Mz3

 

BTY, What is the FC of K3?

I dun like Hyundai brand, altis interior design orbiang, Mazda sales personnel bo hiew me. Hence I decided to go for k3 looool.

 

Anyway altis is 10k more than k3 so if gt budget constraint jiu go for k3 lor. Mazda 3 their leg space n boot space cannot fight w k3.

 

Last week Mazda 3 price was at 110k now is 108k w guarantee Coe

K3 sport was 113k now 105k w guarantee coe

Altis I forgot liao drop ard 3k de price.

 

K3 drop de most tats is part of de reason I choose tat oso

Altis was my second choice. Its price was about $10K higher and had less features (you can check)

Altis has better consumption. Perhaps 2-3km/l better.

 

If you drive lots, you should consider more fuel efficient cars like those diesel cars.

 

I suggest you test drive a few more times before you commit. No hurry

I went to Kia showroom today and the head unit in the display not the same as yours. Pretty ugly. The SE told me can have option to top up $2k for Eurostyle nav system etc etc....Is this the $2k HU in your pic? Did u actually have to pay or it was included as freebie in the end? Thanks.
