I learnt my lesson on mods., especially when required wiring. When completed, always got extra screws etc..After couple of years, all kinds of noise crop up.

hi guys...i'm comparing the 2014 Mazda 3 with the 2014 KIA K3.

 

any insights on the avg FC assuming easy driving 60% highway / 40% city driving?

 

What is the actual avg for drivers here?

 

i have a friend who drives a K3 conservatively yet he got about 12km/ltr despite it being new.

 

thank you so much in advance!

So long as the K3 can safely return at least 10km per L under 70 city / 30 highway, i will take K3.

 

Mz3 seems too complex & sophisticated for my liking. I would imagine that I would be held hostage by the AD in more ways than 1...

I got the same bid like yours and same commit delivery period by SE. But to be honest, not even KIA factory can guarantee the delivery period. What SE indicate is just "likely" to be delivered... lol.. Happy waiting. Maybe both of us will receive the car same period :)

 

EDIT: sorry, sorry... mine is 2nd July bid. Wait too long until blur... [smash]

I don't drive neither, but I've been stalking the 2 threads quite consistently.. from what i gather, K3 is around 11-13km/l and Mazda 3 is around 12-14km/l. can be slightly higher or lower, but around there.

When the K3 first launch, the plate is still SKK, including myself, which is the first batch, also wait for almost 2 month.

My friend's Forte 5 years still good. Probably he took good care of it. I have to agree Toyota car is good indeed. My 9 years plus Vios still going strong. Looking forward for my K3
