Seriously, if u worry about resale value, don't invest in cars. Go ahead invest in houses n landed property.

T and H cars are as boring as Nissan Sunny. Hey Nissan Sunny also got better resale value too.

I can only say I am sorry. As much as I hope one day Malaysians in general can be more helpful and provide fact-based information when others ask for help instead of imposing their own thought/decision making mechanisms onto others regardless whether that information is used as good-to-know, light-weight factor or sole determinant, I just can't force everyone to read before posting or to understand me after reading.

Just some questions that I naively hope you could enlighten me:
Why does taking into account of resale value mean that one cannot ultimately decide to buy a car with bad resale value? Why do you deny ppl the right to even just consider a factor? To match the spirit of your comment, if I worry and consider about fuel consumption then I should buy an oil rig? Even though what I needed was a car, really?

This is not meant to upset anyone, I apologize if I did. Just hope that this can challenge the way some ppl think in a positive manner.

And of course I gotta say, thanks to those who actively share their knowledge to help out and post pictures here, I enjoy reading this forum.XD

You got it the other way around, super charger kicks in first and then the turbo will kick in.

Wonder if any of you guys could advice on car loans.

To put this in context: I have booked a new Golf GTI. I work overseas with income more than eligible to support the loan. Relatively debt free. No bad CCRIS records. Transferring the NCD from my wife's car therefore she has to be the loan applicant with me being the guarantor.

Applied through Maybank. They approved us at 80% margin (I want a 90% margin). Maybank's argument is that I work overseas. Is that a reason or just BS? And Affin rejected the case as they don't accept applicant who works overseas. Furthermore they said that my CCRIS record is empty and hence they can't see my history.

This is a 'dam if you do, dam if you don't kinda situation'; many records in CCRIS cannot, no record cannot. WTF!

I really wanna get this loan sorted ASAP. Any advice would be much appreciated. Recommendations on bank contacts, etc?

then u have to seriously think about how much are r u really interested in that particular car and whether the interest outweigh the question on resale value or the other way around. If your primary concern is resale value, then go for a car that really will gives u good resale value after couple of years. I think nobody can be certain on VW's resale value down the road. But that's the least of my concern since i'm happily vroom vroom with my little polo sport.

By the way, how long r u thinking of using the car before you want to sell it off?

Perhaps u also need to ask yourself if the car is still good and u have no whatsoever problem with it, then do u still want to sell it off in few years times? if no, then the resale value question is not relevant anymore. Anyway, whatever car u get, buy it with no regret and enjoy what u buy.

golf n scirocco, comfortable enough, but not quite as comfy as say camry la. if u are used to civic type r, then VW comfort and refinement is out of this world.

polo also not too bad if u dont mind the space, nice acceleration due to the torque and DSG. tapao my gti last time in highway somemore. sweat.gif

think 2nd hand value for VW shud b ok since they offering a 5yrs unlimited mileage. so prob that's your selling point when you trying to sell your car after 3yrs...

how much you paid for the used car.

i also tested the 1.4 today and was told a 7k discount for 2011 unregistered unit. Worth buying 2011 model or go for full price 2012?

Have converted both my uncles into VW fans. First uncle bought a Passat in March, now today another uncle paid deposit for Passat too. rclxm9.gif

If only my mum waited one or two months, I would have been able to convince her to get Passat as well. She wanted a car quickly so bought a C-Class. (Not complaining about C-Class, its awesome, but just being a fanboy tongue.gif )
