Agreed
in fact i talked to one of the sellers who was selling under invoice as pointed out by one fellow member. The seller was in fact an investor and reason for under invoice selling he gave was that Sorento could not generate on money as anticipated plus reduction in prices also affected the investors.
in addition the company has reduced delivery time of Sorento and now offering delivery within 2 or 3 months so the investors r selling under invoice at minimal loss to re invest else where.
Nevertheless, finish quality, drive, plastic or rubber parts used inside and out side Sorento and features r way more of excellent quality as compared to the locally produced Toyota variants to include Fortuner.
A marked difference can be seen in imported toyotas and local production whereas so far Kia has not compromised on finished built quality which might come at par at a later stage when local vendors r allowed to produce various parts as in the case of Toyota ,Suzuki or Honda.
Again for us all pakistanis ,its very hard to get out of the charisma of Toyota but one has to break the chains which have been broken and u can see Kia, Hyundai,MG,DFK Glory Changan etc in abundance on roads.
im sure that with the passage of time Sorento too will make its place as was the case with Fortuner.
