hi ppl,

I would like to ask for opinion..about buying a new car. I'm interested in mercedes B-class~

The dilemma is whether i should go for the current model on market or should i wait for the new edition = 2012 merc B-class which might be launched in early 2012.

They are now offering discount(abt 25k if im not mistaken) for the current model..probably to attract buyers since they gonna launch the new model soon. is it worth buying? or should i wait for the latest edition?(of course wont get any discount cry.gif )

Thanks  biggrin.gif

Well, I have the current B-180. All I can say is...dissapointing car for a Merc. Under-powered, stiff as hell and poor brakes make it the worst Benz I've ever driven. If given a second chance, wont get it at all....

So you may ask, since the car is hopeless, why did I buy it? Cause made a mistake of buying it without test driving...and a 30k++ discount was offered. Bought for RM180k++.

Get the CT200H. Much better car...IMHO.

same here, last year mom got it for 186k from the original 216k. no power, slow throttle response, awkward driving position, and the ride is not even comfy. only good thing is quietness at high speed and huge space.
so many better cars you can get at almost rm200k man..... but all the women just buy this car because they like the looks  sweat.gif

Haha..so you are like me B180 and a Golf at home ehhh...

But the funny thing for the B180..they put Potenza RE050A tires on...waffak...for a sheet slow car ....

Yeah agree "auntie" will approve the looks of the car..ahahhaa...
