well..sometimes buying a car.....really depends on individual..for me definately i will priority on what i like the most 1st...as for ur case..u r sitting ur car for at least 3 years...if u buy something that u dun like...everyday u gonna see something like that and make urself suffer for 3 years..that's not a good thing either..well it's a known fact peugeot and mazda ..resell maybe not so good.. but after 3 years...say u compare to lancer GLS or civic 1.8...or altis..how is their values after 3 years....izzit some where around there..if it's plus minus RM5k...just go get what u like bro...

peugeot 308 can be a good deal..if u like the car..hatchback and how it looks..definately it's not as futuristic as mazda 3 lor...mainly depends on u like the tubro or u like the looks...

anyway i think if u wana buy mazda 3...buy 2.0 la.then change car in 5 years time lor =)

yah so complicated......but power still civic more...some...but if i didnt recall wrongly... 0-100 the previous mazda 3 was on par with the current civic...

not too sure this new mazda 3 wit the 5 speed gearbox will be better or not..

anyway everyone still compares whether now is CKD or CBU..

resale value seems to play an important role for malaysians

the old 3..no..the new 3 yes!

but instead there's people rather get a caldina 2005 model about price range as the mazda 3...caldina ZT version...

caldina is a unique car..we do not know whether is another caldina coming out in future or not..definitely the model still can last long...

but everything about mazda 3 2.0 is just too good to resist too! haha

mazdaspeed 3..can buy evo x isnt it ?

totally agree with u...a great example is
did u know satria neo is heavier than a older version of mazda 3 1.6

did u know manual satria neo..stock la!...we try before lose to 1.6 mazda 3 auto....maybe the driver problem but that's the result.

drag wor.. 0-100..

if got more ppl buy mazda..then definately it is possible to have a ckd mazda...

saw this over the net...


although what i sharing will be a mazda 3 diesel..

but it's worth to read for those who's considering the car..

jchue73,

reason ppl want CKD because want the price to go down....

so i can only say NO to CKD when i freaking rich lor...haha...

because you have ur own business..more business man look izzit ? hehe.

i seriously dono why red colour but interior like that lor ( black top beige bottom)..so disappointing...

well..308 design not as futuristic as mazda 3...that's 1..plus in malaysia
308 is CKD by naza..so...it can be a good buy if u dont mine CKD or CBU..

while mazda 3 is imported from Japan....

really depends on each individual what they are looking for...but it's gonna be hard if someone need to decide between 308 or mazda 3...

i dont mind if can have a push button with the key..like the FD2R.i think it's just nice to have a button to "TURN-ON" the car....

For those of you still thinking whether to buy the car...

i think this video here will help..
