depreciation is a fickle issue..at best, its a damage limitation exercise, and yes, it will effect all cars & makes..even the "superior" T & H models..

anywayyyy...for the so call "engine versions" of the 4B11...all i can say is, carmakers dont makes engines the same way as phonemakers release their firmware/OS versions...this is not iOS firmware we're talking about yeah?

please do take note that the power figures for 4B11 in Inspira & the Mitsu ASX are identical (google it up)

Max. Output (kw(PS)/rpm) 110 (150) / 6,000
Max. Torque (Nm(kgm)/rpm) 197 (20.1) / 4,200

means from 120k depreciate to 87k within 2 years?

Max is 90K, car bought at old price 115K, but that time got discount so only 110K.

ok average about 10k per year

mind sharing the source?

can't seem to find it on google



direct to buyer would definitely yield higher price, but it's just a matter of whether u already have a buyer, willing to find a buyer (ads,etc etc), & doing the paperworks, & some risks (car hijacking, etc)

plus the price also depends on the shop itself, some are conman, some honest types. simple example is when i asked to trade my neo for inspira, most shops asked for rm26k-27k only. so found a shop near my house willing to accept at rm30.5k 4-5k difference woo..

well, that's just an example lah..
btw, market price (from autoworld, etc is around 33k-37k depending on condition of the car lah)

my waja had higher resell value than my old volvo but that stupid car cost me a fortune when 1 week before signing paper overhead gasket melted

dpends on time of selling, secondhand dealer, & market demand for it.. that's what i understand lah

Ya it is identical between inspira & ASX. It may because or ECU mapping Eventhough lancer,inspira and ASX is using same engine but the mapping is different. FYI the ECU code of Inspira is different with Lancer GT. Check the attachment

good finding!

used car dealers are just taking advantage of the situation.. of course, they will take a lot lower than the market value, say RM60k, but they will still sell it at market rate just to get the fat profit. in fact, this is the common practice hence many ppl prefer to sell themselves (in advert they will say Direct Seller/Owner).

lancer owners shouldn't worry, coz the mmc version will be sought after later.

Added on November 26, 2010, 8:52 pmthis is correct. in fact, proton never claimed that the inspira is lotus tuned. a lot of people misinterpret and did not read the press release completely.. and blindly said that proton tipu.

proton already said that a few years after collaborating with lotus, their own engineers have garnered enough knowledge and they can tune themselves. this is evident in inspira hence they claimed "handling by proton". the ride and handling are improved, even got praised by the mmc engineers. but some ppl still living in denial and can't believe malaysians can tune!

Kakaka no government will give up that much cash going into the treasury.

You have a higher chance of getting a job that pays better so that you can own that car even with current prices. Stop dreaming and start working harder.

topic: interest rate

Any body got the best rate?
Today went to bangi showroom,the saleswomen not so friendly ......

She told me can get 3.2% (9yrs) ....

so just to confirm whether this is true or not? anyone?

I think its Affin bank offering the rates you mentioned. Also it depends on the loan amount and your financial background, suggest you go another branch, maybe the bangi branch too many see-see-look-look people.

3.2%!! huh..my staff went to Bangi showroom too. The saleswoman was quite friendly but not updated. Cannot answer in detail. She quoted 3.5% for 5 - 9 years..sheshhh..
