What package did you get for your Forte?

KnGp wrote:for me, i book 1.6M SX. total got 5:

1) leather seat - SE consider this as a freebie but i thought SX comes with leather seat already???
2) Bluetooth carkit - again, i thought all SX model comes with this?
3) bodykit - i booked in april so i managed to got it. wanted to remove it but only reduce $500. lol??
4) solar film - is there a brand mike cool?
5) car mat - SE didnt say brand but surely is some lousy de. who knows is the Forte original car mat. lol..

planning to ask for petrol vouchers, bear bear and umbrella on collection day. HAHAs..

2 questions here:
1) when collection of car, will we be given full tank petrol?
2) and what are the chances of getting the OPC $20 coupons? haha

Ans to your qns:
1) SX don't come with leather seats. They make you happy by saying is considered freebies, in actual fact the
car of the price you paid include this leather seat.
2) Yes, all SX model come with bluetooth kit.
3) Amount should reduce by $1K if without BK. Why you want to remove it since it is so nice?
4) Solar film is called Rike cool.
5) car mat - It comes with original black colour car mat with the word Forte.

Qns 2:

1) I got half tank full when I got my car.
2) Depends on your SE mood, you luck and your persistant power.

wow u reply so fast.

so out of the 5 freebies i listed, leather seat and car kit is not considered freebies since is already paid for. my SE told me bodykit worth $2k and only reduce me $500 if i remove it. thats why i keep it. looks like my SE is not that honest wor. *sigh* i wanted to remove cos i find it add weight only. haha.. i find forte is already a heavy vehicle le.

as for solar film, it is written on my contract "mike cool". M and R is not that same dun think he write wrong or i see wrong bah. thats why im asking is there a "mike cool" solar film? anyway, which solar film is of acceptable quality and price? juz curious

never heard of mike cool solar film. He must have anyhow scrible wrongly

Kia only offer Rike cool solar films to customer and should be the Premier 85 quality. The better one is V-cool which have a better rejection and also more expensive. You can either reject or dun ask for it if you prefer your own preference solor films.

the secret discount must be something fantastic that cannot be disclosed, that makes it an even greater deal.

Acutally for new car, its better to have a layer of paint protection sealant.

Leather seats?

hais. with a 5k difference. i finally took the plunge n ordered the ex instead. din get to see how the ex looks internally n externally since it was being test driven by someone else.

anyone with ex willing to share their pics?

thanx in advance!

You won't see any obvious differences on the external until u take a moment to scrutinise.

Externally, the major differences are

1) EX has a smaller rim size 15"
2) no reverse sensors unless SE provide for u which is locally fitted
3) EX exhaust tip is pretty hidden..unlike the SX...juz looks only
lah..nothing different in performance.
4) Rear drum brakes compare to disc on the SX
Other than that, I think that's basically the external differences until someone can add on what I missed out.

Internally...
1) Ex absence of bonnet insulator
2) single cd player
3) Ex panels are black throughout while SX has some with silver (I prefer black but o well....u can't have them all right
4) Hydraulic steering for EX vs motorised for SX...hydraulic more handling feel imo...SX one is like....too light.
There's a few more but pretty sure the rest of the FOGers will add on.

keke. cos i haven get to see the ex, so hoping to see someone post up here =) thanx anyway

Must be something to do with protecting the car

2) reverse sensor was not painted same colour as car
3) EX Trunk has got a key whole to open, SX do not have.

Internal
5) Ex has got no supervision cluster
6) Ignition key has got no light for EX
7) Meter reading was display differently compare to SX
8) EX no ESP
9) EX power steering does not come with Tilt & Telescopic Adjustment
10) EX Factory Audio while SX Double din Factory Audio
11) EX do not have full auto aircon

i nearly get 1yr free road tax if my fren were to buy his car 2gether wif me from e same SE but last mins my fren back out so cant get e 1yr free. in e end i booked my car from another SE coz e SE gives me more freebies than e earlier SE.

the bodykit package for booking in apr is only applicable for sx model? doesn't come as a free upgrade for ex model rite?

One good thing about EX is that people may not like the spec of SX, therefore why not use the money to spend on modifying it themselves rather wasting money on those specs which they do not like

Paiseh so late reply.

Juz@kid: Thanks. My is Auto SX metal bronze arriving in jun/july. Registered my car and took the poll. Seems like most of us like this colour

dreamzzlandz: Thanks. Give ur SE a call and he/she will tell you the brand and range of the film. The SE is from Alexandra showroom, and she is not my fren, if she is, then I sure scold her coz I deserve more freebies and discounts for being a fren ! keke

tish: Ok sure will pass you one umbrella during a meetup, if she never forget keke. As for the sealant, I sure will do. But, I need to ask her on the sealant brand and ask ard for reviews before I commit. Anyway still got a long time till i collect my ride so got some time to source ard.

fonefun610: Sorry bro, can't tell much but it involves money hehe. And even you find her, she will act blur on that coz she might eat west north wind if all of us ask that from her keke

Fortei: The SX comes with leather seat liao

chengwei: You may or may not be able to get the same offer. It depends on your loan amount, your sugar cane talk, her sales for the month or quater and her mood. I know if I sell cars and my sales not good this month I sure won't give much discount. But what I think, it all comes down to whether the SE is sincere and honest or not. if he/she is sincere and honest, then getting more freebies is not a problem. My SE is Shannen from Alexandra showroom, hope you get a better deal

regarding about ur SE, is her attitude good?
coz i went down to meet this SE thru a frd's recommendation.

package given was normal and was disappointed by the nonchalant body language the SE emitted after i said i could not commit on the same day.

so much for recommendation. haha.

if u find it too normal, dont sign, walk to another SE n ask for better package. they sure want to win u over one, unless they too freind friend with the other se u reject 8)
