No offend, the accord & camry exterior look boring to me, the main battle in-between should be new sonata & mazda 6 coz both also have stylish + unique exterior!

I also hope korean car maker to give the stiff competition to H & T eventhough I am T supporter......H & T car price are too highly priced based on the accessories offered by them.....
but the worry is once korean car gets the popularity in malaysia, they will practise the same as what T & H are doing now as Hyundai and Kia are also profit oriented organisation....

as long as there is competiton, i mean serious competition, T@H will certainly lower their price closer to Korean car.

Was told by someone that car price will drop in may as useless gomen want to increase petrol price. Not sure how true this is. However since dec09 car prices have been on the rise, I noticed this first with sylphy then other models and makes are also doing it. So price up now then later go down, no diff la, kena con by

gomen & distributors.
So when sonata launch price must be kaw kaw low else who wanna buy when others price go down in may ?

But why Hyundai provide HID headlights on 2.4 only? Is it not equipped with projector type headlamp which can be fitted with HID without glaring coming cars?
They should learn form the older model and to pay attention on the engine durability, undercarriage bushes which are very fragile.
Hope this forum is viewed by those at Hyundai. I am talking through my experience of owning one.
Apart from that hats off to good design, six speed gearbox and hope they still maintain the massage facility for driver and of course TRC too.

Will it be like.. good good good, but everyone expect every others to buy, and all still ended up buying jap cars. sometimes, there are people need to take care of their face.. buying jap is so call "smart people's" choice, "Resale Value" still the killer application in malaysia car industry.
"Resale Value" is like magic poison... once we talk talk talk.. and resale value is out... T & H, no other brand..
That day I was in one H showroom.. i told one guy, why not wait for sonata yf in april.. , he say, he heard and seen some pictures.. very nice, tapi, korean punya kereta, resale value tala... and I stop.. coz nothing more to talk.. as he's still correct.. there's nothing to proof yet.

100% correct. They din not think japanese car are overpriced. Resale value is so so only. But their maintaning fees are high.
Damn 2nd hand car dealer tell my friends not to buy korean car because value too low.
When i ask him about a hyundai getz in his shop, he said the car maintain very well. No problem at all. KOrean car very good at body solidness.
He "eat" the car with high price. Then want to sell high price.
Then got another time at another shop my family want to sell kia sephia at to a dealer, we ask how much can sell. The owner tell us no value , but their shop selling the car with high price. Damn.
Celaka punya dealer.........
Got also a time my sister sold her toyota seg 1992 model RM 9000 at 2008. The dealer said this is the best price he can give.
No more value. Japanese carler brother.... I tell him. He said times are bad, and no more loan for old car.
Then few days later, he sold to a customer, that concidently my dad's friends at RM 15000.
So what to said .
Then my sister buy from a new honda civic 2.0 at RM 128 800 from honda. The sales person said honda car 2nd value very good. MY sister is the ppl who like "face".
After recently, she want to sold her car. Ask the honda how much can trade in to change to honda stream. Then RM 95k the most she can get. If not trade in RM 90k ++ from outside dealer.
About 2nd hand value, the dealer said market are bad, selling 2nd hand car very hard.
Loan interest for 2nd hand car high.
What the story tell us? Japan car also no value.
Selling japan car is using gimmick. Just tell others that others make no value. Then the "smart" people will buy the japanese car.
