Seems like majority of the posts say 70+K. I don't know anything about car but i am happy with the price if comparing with Suzuki Sx4. The only thing i know is they both are Hatchback, haha. I could be a silly buyer, though. Any idea when to expect 5-door Hatchback to be available and the estimated price? Seems like majority of the posts say 70+K.

I really dont like they change a lot design with the rear lamp. I'tk now like korean's car made. Why not they keep using the same rear lamp all-red design? My first impression when i have a look from rear with new 407 was bad. This unit too. the rear lamp of “CC” version reminds me of nissan sentra.

And the only way to make the price sensible is to CKD/SKD it. Which is another hurdle by itself. my vote goes to 207sw! and the warm/hot RC.
