I'm planning to get a car (most likely Forte 1.6 or 2.0) before CNY (in January 2012

)
Like to get some opinion on purchasing a car in last quarter of the year.
Pros:
- There are some quite attractive offerings now (check myforteclub

)
- Much much better chance to get the car before CNY
Cons:
- The car will be one year old in the next 2 months.
I'm purchasing the car with no trade-in. So the concern of servicing the installment for current car does not exist.
What do you think?
I'm still torn apart in selecting 1.6 or 2.0.
What shared by gregy is really what been playing in my head EVERYDAY now!

If I'm going for 2.0, I will need to fork out around RM3.5k - RM4k extra every year. This amount of money is not small and could contribute to other more important stuffs (like new house expenses)... and not so important stuffs (like going for annual trips

)
With 2.0, I get more power (fun factor), better safety measurements (other additional features not really that matter to me). But, I will get higher FC, higher commitment in servicing the loan, etc.
Anyway, for me, leather seat is a must. So if I am really going for 1.6, I will surely get it wrapped with leather. The SC has quoted me extra RM2K and can be bundled in the car loan. I think it's slightly more expensive though.
I am in the same situation as you.
However, i still waiting for good bonus news from my company .. hehe
