Hi guys,
me and my wife are currently looking at buying a Kia Forte Koup 2.0L ver. Just wondering what are some pointers to look for when buying the koup ?
It was either this or the Mitsubishi Colt, so i would rather get the koup haha.
;D ;D

Pointers to look out for in Koup i'm not so sure. Do you'll have kids? If no kids - By all means go get yourself a Koup! If have kids - It's better to get a sedan. eg: KIA Forte Intend to have kids - It's better to get a sedan. eg: KIA Forte

Ure refering to Colt Ver R or NA 1.5?
Ver R Colt: cheaper road tax, gd FC despite Turbo charged, pleasure to drive, 4-dr but space at back abit cramp for 2 adults. 2L Koup: 2-dr, high insurance, NA, beautiful car, frt passenger mafan have to give way to pple sitting at the back, def not for family man with very young kids.
Test drove both cars bedore and if i was given a choice, i'd take the Ver R no doubt.

We do not have kids at the moment, still abit young, only 25 so there is still a long way to go before i get a kid haha. Anyway, the thing about koup that attracts me rather than the colt is because is bigger, looks sportier and definitely looks more fierce than the colt. Though i know the colt tc engine packed a punch and will probably beat the koup ? But if everybody recommends the colt instead, even in a Koup forum then i will probably give the colt another try. But after all i think i am using it merely for transport to work rather than anything else.

You just need a car from point A to point to B so either get a Koup or Forte. But is you plan to go track then get the Colt R

if u want to get from point A to B in style then Koup... If you're more interested in speed then Colt R...

Colt ver R can be easily tuned to ahieve 200-210 bhp, so for outright power, go for the colt. For bigger and more comfortable ride, koup will be the one. Also due to the CG, koup corners better too.
