hyundai has one showroom in Alexandra only?

Stay in east side. A bit inconvenient to go there.

1.6 GLS at $84,999 is a good buy? What are the differences between 1.6 GLS and 1.6 GLS "S"?

Take note. $85k is for guaranteed COE price. Meaning you sure get your car. If you want to gamble abit you take the non guaranteed which is $82k.

 

Non guaranteed is a good choice if you not in rush to get the car. I book at non guaranteed price and still got my COE in the end.

 

Also take note and Hyundai's competitor Kia (cycle and carriage) listed price is non-guaranteed COE with the assumption of having car to trade in.

 

Otherwise the Kia K3 is just as expensive as Hyundai.

 

The GLS model is very basic without leather seats and give steel wheels like those found on taxi. No fog lights and no LED lights.There is no touchscreen LCD screen and no steering control buttons. No rear aircon vents, no pushstart button and no auto folding mirrors too.

 

But they didn't skim on safety. You still get 6 airbags and ESP for all trims.

You can go to Komoco authorize dealer call Ricky Tay Auto at Automart in Ubi. I bought my 2 Hyundai from them.

There is Display unit for Elantra? Able to test drive there?

GLS door handle, side mirror are painted?

Checked K3 L yesterday. The door handle, side mirror, front grill are black color. Don't look nice.

 

Steel rim is ok. Can change to alloy rim easily. 

Yes have, can test drive.

Thanks bro. Will check it out this weekend.

You can change these things easily... and add all these aftermarket... can buy the original parts online or even from Komoco and get it fixed in third party workshops... can try Tong Lee Wee at Alexandra... they specialize in Hyundai cars...

Mine was Christabelle. You can look for one of the senior SE name Susie.. she handled most of our recent purchases from MD elantra (old version) to the new AD ones.

hahaha OK- cool...

Let me know if you cant find it or if you need any other information. 

 

Hope to catch you and your Elantra when we have our usual meet-up and gathering ya..  [thumbsup]

You took half an hour to decide on car colour?  :o  So what colour have you choose?

 

mine worse, i took half an hour to decide on the colour (gray, due to fengshui), then sign on the dotted line 

and then just about to step out of the showroom, saw the beige and suddenly wanted to change my mind

took another day to consider (and ask my master) and finally change to beige...  [smash]  [smash]  [smash]

Does anyone driving new elantra find that the suspension are soft? As in going over the hump or uneven road very bumpy.

 

i find it too firm.. ie: abit too hard over bumps

but i've sat in a fren's tucson and also the same feel, so i guess it's characteric of hyundai cars

just like hondas are overly firm and toyotas are overly soft

mercs are overly firm and volvos are just nice

i would say hyundai is somewhere in between honda and toyota and i quite like it

my fav is still volvo.. everything just nice.

Though once you have signed on the dotted line, if you want to change colour, you need to pay a penalty?

Driven 5k+ now, feels everything not bad. FC able to reach 12-13km/l. Start off rpm will reach 3k ☺. Think its still reasonable, not too fierce.
