According to my friend at CIMB, a lot of people who are earning RM4-5K (gross) are buying RM100K+ cars nowadays e.g. peugeots, golfs, polos, etc.

test driven both of them. Also, in theory, the performance difference between the two cars are really small.(The polo lost a lot in bhp) But when I tested the cars, the polo felt more powerful in terms of everything. I would like the golf more but I'm still a student so yea, dad says don't push my boundaries too far. Haha. Also, I feel as a new driver, the car feels expensive for me but it is too hard to resist so I need support to get it. Haha. No club for polo drivers?


Added on March 21, 2011, 7:31 pmI mean I feel it is a bit too much for me as a student to get it. But I never meant to show off to anybody, I just am super in love with the tech in the car. I still keep Fiesta in my mind at times to remind myself how much a b segment car actually should cost. == ...and I get discouraged to get the polo. sad.gif

Hey guys , would like to know if i were to test drive the golf , am i supposed to call for an appointment or i could just walk in just like that? According to my friend, he made an appointment just in case..
*
No need actually.. i tested the Golf TSI 6 months ago and just tested the GTI semalam.. just walk in, and they will photostat your IC and driving Licence..

But i waited for 10 minutes bcos the GTI was out for test drive... however, the waiting wasnt long..

thanks bro  smile.gif ...but what i read, the tires that are given are difference for each car rite? i believe it is either bridgestone or dunlop, what do you recommend? if one want to change it...wind noise is common i guess..almost all car has it depending on the speed that you are cruising at...

good to know the Golf has a better build than the Pug...Pug is 1.6 engine rite, the only car that is almost similar to Golf in terms of everything...Civic, Altis, Focus n all are 2.0 engine...n bigger..Focus got hatchback as well though...i am not keen on the diesel version of Focus..how about the non diesel version, is that good? build wise n also the driving experience? i am not a car expert, so how do i get the ECU remap? n how much is the bodykit, i assume you are referring to the gti bodykit rite?

i am planning to go the Jln 222 n the Bangsar sales office..the one near to me will be Sg Besi..

do you drive a VM?

Thanks,
KV

I think you are talking about NA cars and FI cars...

NA - Civic 2.0, Altis 2.0, Focus 2.0 (petrol)
FI - Golf 1.4 TSI, Pug 308 1.6 Thp, Focus 2.0 TDCi...

What is so unique about FI is small capacity but produce torque and power way above other cars with similiar capacity.. (e.g.. Golf 1.4TSI and 308 1.6 Thp performance is almost on par with a normal 2.4L car say Camry or Accord)..

What you need to feel in FI cars is the low rpm torque that pull your brain back to your head when you press on the gas pedal which you dont feel that much in an NA car although FI cars have lower CC.. You will be amazed when you press on Golf, 308 or Focus TDCi..

please test drive at show unit which is closer to highway... (eg. Penchala or Puchong which u can use Kesas)... Bangsar will be jam and road is small.. no chance to tekan on the car.. my 2 cents..

sorry mate...what does the acronym NA and FI stands for?

your feedback is about the same of what the rest has to say..which is good, meaning a standard answer n no BS..thanks dude...

i am doing the test drive at the jalan 222, so i should be able get into the federal n then either go to LDP or drive towards klang...should be good enough to test i guess..i didnt know there is a sales office at Puchong...

Thanks,
KV

Thanks for your advice friend, Yeah i was thinking about investing in a prop too but im a human, cant help but to envy those lucky fellas driving Golf. Such a nice, sleek and powerful car.

My plan is to save until early next year for Golf downpayment, about 10% or more. Havent decided yet. If i didnt buy golf i would throw all my money in a property somewhere in Seremban 2 perhaps, that's part of the plan too.

As you said, we only live once so why dont try and feel the nicest things right. So i'm trying very hard to come out with a logic to get Golf instead of a house end of this year or next year.

BTW im single and doesnt have much commitment.

jwrx and Mavik speak the same language with me.. if you are not familiar with property and try to understand the property scenario now in msia, you will get a knee jerk..

I am in my late 20's and most of my frens regretted did not go into prop market earlier on, but spending on new cars (not to say their old car kenot use), gadgets, and expensive holidays.. some just bought hav to force themselves committing more than 50% of their salary into installment, some dun even have $$ for initial cost and downpayment and some cant even find an affordable house within their price range and preferred location....

I started my 1st prop at 25 den 27 den 29.. despite having these, buying a new car is still far from attainable to me as I prefer to have solid financial foundation first and my faithful 7 yr old car is still running strong...

Although I dun own a VW but I am still abit kacau in FnF (paiseh paiseh tongue.gif) and me too admire those who are driving around, smoking ppl with their ride... I am still passionate to get an European car probably few years down the road.. nod.gif

Dont worry... Golf price wont increase as fast as property price.. few years down the road, who knows new Golf price might be still the same but property sure increase like sky high...
