Exterior look like a big hatch back more than a MPV. Interior is very nice. Time to go back to a MPV again since I sold off my Carens 4 yrs ago. If Kia can use the 1.6L GDI turbo engine from Hyundai in the new Carens will be the best. Lower COE and road tax with powerful engine.

Really not worth it when a piece of paper is 63K !!! For any car. May see 1 or 2 braveheart driving it. Probably have to wait till 2016 (elections) or 2017 or 2018 to see it soften again...... For now just carry on driving our 16K COE car ........ heeeee or cash in. Exterior look like a big hatch back more than a MPV. Interior is very nice.

Ya ..... it is that bad. Based on statistics from LTA. Over the next 3 year, only about 90K cars will reach 10 years. In 4 years time, 220K car will reach 10 years. So ya ...... 16/17/18 is a good time to buy a car. Again, will COE reached our expected "normal" level again ....... 2016, 2017 or 2018 huh.... my current COE due in 2018 leh...

Maybe you are just in time ....... 2013 80K 2014 100K 2015 100K will have their COE expired. Together with recent finance policy change. It should get cheaper. Anyway, if you have some money now, it is the best time to buy preowned car. Heard fire sale everywhere.

I heard they are very aggressive in buy-in of used car. So they have a mountain of used cars. Since Feb 26th measure of 60% loan and 5 year, many did not even do 1 deal. Many in AML already belly up, Huayang also closed 1 of the 3 showroom. Have money, and car can scrap then buy a new used car. To get a cheap deal, buy when NO ONE want to buy. oooh.....how come fire sales? Maybe you are just in time ....... 2013 80K 2014 100K 2015 100K will have their COE expired.

It looks really sophisticated and sleek. I love the lines and the leather is amazing. I am going to start saving to get this car or at least test drive it.
