Looks like UK & US edition FD civic. They even produced a coupe which looks 80% like the FD coupe @ US.

The Forte looks much more sportier than the Avante which reminds me of the latest JDM Accord front and a IS250 rear!
Well done Kia!
:sad:P.S-A pity I've brought my Cerato too early!If Not,will definately go for this latest model with 124hp to start with!

Cars with light grey interior looks more luxurious than those plain single colour interior especially those with full black interior as black interior is more cheap to manufacture than those with colours.

It's actually not say light color cheapo lah...i oso don't like chrome...which is viewed as luxury or exclusive to others..It's juz a matter of preference...I myself prefer black or dark interior too...besides looking more sporty, it's also easier to maintain... my 2 sen...

Know what you meant bro. Jus tat maybe is the texture, etc plus the light grey colour... Or maybe jus preference.. For me, I prefer a dark interior. Currently the light grey areas in my car r full of black markings, especially the door entry area. so difficult to clean at times.. jemjem
