the same old question is in the air.

Facelifted Sante Fe or Sorento?

The worst thing is no one can confirm when these are coming. Will Naza kia bring in Sorento Diesel?

How would you decide if you are the one waiting for these 2 cars? (with the timing factor)

this Singaporean jokerkia, aka SV but protests not to be, started posting the same crap about the time SV was booted out, tweeting us from Clementi, (by his own admission he's a wind up merchant, Troll) so annoying so needs regular bashing up. smile_approve.gif

SV is from Clementi ! i am from Joo Chiat smile_approve.gif

We r discussing about the car aren't we just in a more creative manner. smile_tongue.gif

So Deal ? Actually Santa Fe ranked 195th base on Jan-July 2012 sales figure in Europe, below Toyota Land Cruiser above BMW Z4, which i felt reluctant to called it "Well Received" just yet. smile_approve.gif

Santa Fe ranked 62nd in US selling 71,016 units down from 74,391 units in 2011 (- 7.5%),
Sorento ranked 35th selling 119,597 units down from 130,235 units in 2011 (- 8.2%)

Compare to

CR-V ranked 9th in US selling 281,652 units up from 218,373 (+ 29%)
Nissan Rouge (US version Quashqai) ranked 26th selling 142,349 units up from 124,543 units in 2011 (+ 14.3%)

That why i have no ideas how Kaylcar able to come out with "Well Received" quote smile_approve.gif

Forget about Japanese. They are too old fashion and outdated.

You also can't compare CRV with Santa Fe and Sorento. CRV is 5 seater here.

Ask yourself, will you buy a Fortuner compared to Santa Fe and Sorento blindly because of the brand? 171k (the cheapest variant) for such a boring car? Resale value? hey, i don't care. Compare the specs. I already saved a lot if you compared spec to spec.

Honda? Which model can I compare it to? Can't even think of one here in Malaysia.

Sorry, just my opinion. no offense.

more useless numbers....that's all you ever got. Your Nissan Rouge steering wheel still coming off? No 1 best selling car with steering wheel falling off, ........got it now, numbnuts? smile_approve.gif

If you are so desperate to find out how well received, just GOOGLE it, or are your hands too busy again with your favorite pastime? smile_kisses.gif smile_approve.gif

For me japanese car r not old fashion & outdated, that ur personal opinion after been hypnotised by various hidden advertisement or what Jayraptor would called it Infected news, perhaps u r reading it from ur product sales guide, Japanese car r lasting fashion & ultra reliable.

Yes I would consider a Fortunner or Pajero Sport if I need a "Real 4 X 4" 7 seater compare to a wannabe Santa Fe, If U really need to go offroad such as construction site & estate, U would know Santa Fe r totally craps, I bet it would end up in sercive centre after a few trip to these site.

No offence just my & many millions people around the world who trust Japanese car more than Korean," Opinions". smile_approve.gif
