Is there any significant difference in power going from 1.6 to 2.0?

I test drove so many models until most of the SA knows me
The person who designed Forte is the head designer for VW and the man behind audi TT
My previous ride was wajunk 4G18P and i can attest that forte handles better if not similar

Ryder,
Well said.
There no harm in doing "testdrive's" for the sake of knowledge.
I do it because of my passion for cars.
You can't get all what you want in your life.
At least, we can "appreciate" what we have in the present moment.
Good luck in your hunting.

I second that. Companies register test cars specifically for the purpose of testing. Even when I was a student, I usually went to showrooms to test drive a variety of cars, ranging from a Proton Persona to a Merc E 55 AMG. Most of them time, I go whenever they have showroom carnivals or open days.

Darreltian,
Thanks for the compliment.
Just called Naza Kia, Sales Branch Manager, Showroom.
The said Forte 2.0SX had already been on our shores for quite sometime, but still processing to be release to customers and showrooms alike.
Most likely, by 15th, some of the Showrooms will receive their 2.0SX version, and the "testdrives" unit will follow suit.
I already booked an appointment for testdrive when it is available.

I already tested the 1.6EX, but still need to testify whether it will break the Civic domination or not.
If it does, we are one step closer to loving the Koreans.
