that for im looking for Vtec nor turbo car haha but note that i could probably drive once or mayb twice in a week.. so i think maintenance issue does not consume much.. im not using it as a daily drive, i treat it like a toy, like a sex partner who giving me orgasm during weekend, nah that's just an exaggeration.. haha, coz im pretty lifeless bored over here without a ride to meet some friends.

QUOTE(avengers88 @ Aug 28 2011, 10:49 PM) If i earn bout 3k a month, what is the car value that I am able to afford in your opinion? An amount that I dun have to ikat perut and stuff, still can afford other stuff and a lil entertainment a month, not much though. How do you all arrange your money for savings and stuff ? hi avengers, the rule of thumb owning a car is that your car price shall not exceed ur annual income.. so to afford em comfortability.. well u know how many malaysia obey this rule.. lol
