huhu...my mistake and my bad...next time need to check first before comment...:)
hehe.. no problem bro.. from my experience, u can tell by the name of the model.. chevy from the us really hv models sounded 'american.' Like the tahoe, cavalier, impala, malibu, even the corvette sounds american to me.. where else the chevy from korea, from my opinion have a bad taste in naming their models.. like 'nabira,' 'aveo,' 'optra,' wtf? definitely trying to copy japanese model-naming convention... huhu..

btw.. sorry to drive off topic.. hehe.. honestly, i think, both are equally good. definitely worth it.. if u want a proven test track car. cruze is the answer, which i think maybe come in handy if u suddenly decide to do performance upgrade or whatsoever.. for looks, in my oinion, maybe kia forte looks cooler in anyway.. :smokin:

for me if got money i might buy cruize... but if budget no much i will choose Kia.. but at same price i will get the forte koup instead... it has 2.0 has 2 door which looks more stylo... and maybe additional money you could get a nice body kit on it....

i own a Forte as well and sit in the cruize last weekend at juru autoshow.... i concluded that cruize interior looks better then the forte... only thing i think it loose is that price instead of getting a 1.8 Cruize i could buy a 2.0forte Koup, Cruize also has no pedal shifters which looses to the KIA... Another thing that i noticed is that it has no Push start button and mobilizer key..... so this is my experience with both cars... and as per SA of cruize the FC will be better compare to KIA Forte 1.6 as car is too heavy but power too low for the car size.... i think this should change if compare with the 2.0.. so i still vote for the Forte.....

Met you in juru :) In Team Street booth :D Btw i prefer cruze but also depends on your budget because as i know cruze is not a cheap car compare to forte in maintenance. I love the cruze looks and if i got the budget i will get one of those :D

I've bought Cruze 1.8 SE around 6 months already and some fact that u might consider/useable before buying the ideal car:-

Good about Cruze:-
1. Spacious
2. Comfortable
3. Sporty look and damn hansome car
4. And off course very rare on the road

Little setback about the car:-
1. Wind sound during driving (Very bad)
2. Outside smell can easly enter your cabin, the air quality system does not work.
3. High fuel consumption 10 litres/100km.
4. Bumpy driving (since fitted with 18 inch rims and low profile tyres)
5. "Leather seat" is actually sintetic leather which looks and quality like PVC.
6. 3rd party workmanship for leather seat, skirting and painting is damn bad.
7. Sound braking during forward and reverse
8. Any customer complaint repair can only be done at Kampung Baru.
9. 5 litres fully sintetic oil change every 10k km.
10. Part for oil change is quite expensive.

So, its up to you now.........:banghead:

My Merc 200 has covered 370,000 km. Twice overheated b'cos radiator leaked. Engine did not suffer damage and no overhaul until now. I have been a Tufoil user for years already.When it reaches 500,000 km without overhaul, I will say Tufoil is really incredible.
