To all the pros out there I need an advice on a mid range car. Budget is around RM150k +-
The mentioned mid range is something like in the class of Honda Civic, Toyota Altis  & my prefered choice is Volkswagen Jetta. Actually I prefers Passat(B7) year 2011 that offers 10% discount but it's sold out. The 2012 models don't offers any discount. Jetta still a considerable choice as it's 2011 made cars offers 10%.

ANY SALESMAN THAT'S READING THIS & GOT A 2011 PASSAT(B7) PLS PM. I'LL FLY OVER TO CLOSE THE DEAL.(WEST MALAYSIA ONLY)

Jetta:
The part that concerns me are the maintenance of the car. If fuel(monthly) & road tax(annually) is more is just +- RM100.00 then it's not much to compare about. It's just a small bite that won't be feel much.

The part that got me into thinking about it is the servicing part. Lubricant, gear oil & things that's not much talked about might come out with a OUCH!!! when paying the bill. Jetta offers 5 years warranty & surely it gotto goes to their official workshop. Also it's a twincharged car. I've never owned something like that. Servicing it would cost more?

That car is only 1.4CC. Underpower..? From what I've came to known it's technology...
1.4CC = 2.4CC of a non twin charged car. That's what the salesman told me.
Personally the talks of a salesman is called sales talk, the kind the just wants U to buy something from em.

Also I don't sees much of Jetta on the road. Any reason for it? Price is an issue for some? Yea... It's something that's in between & not many would goes for it. Mostly would just goes for Camry & Accord within that price range. Worth to pay the extras for the new technology.

As for me I'm looking at Volkswagen is offering AFFORDABLE TECHNOLOGY. Correct me if 'm wrong, there's not much of twincharge cars at these price range.

Jetta owners pls advice on this...

Civic & Altis:
It's just another normal car. From the starts of my 1st car till now there's nothing too special about it. Just that it's interior that might be better abit...

Final:
The feels of it when speeding... Weight & power gotto be balance. Weight is not what we sees on the paper only. When moving there's downforce, aerodynamics & for some it would be called stability.
At the highway which of these 3 would be better?
*
eh, the sales guy for VW is not bluffing you.

The TSi engine is really power. The Polo is powered by 1.2L Tsi, I think it can go 0-100kmh in 6 sec. Whats more surprising it is fuel saving too.

Jetta is a nice car, but I won't spend RM140k over an average class sedan.

Hoho, don't buy the Altis, it sucks. I compared the 2.0G Altis to the Polo Sedan 1.6 and guess what? The Polo Sedan 1.6 beats the Altis anytime. I step hard on the Altis during test drive, by the time it reach 100kmh, the RPM was 5000-6000. Whereas, the Polo is smooth, step hard at 100kmh, the RPM was mere 2000-3000. This is the wonder of german technology. Interior is super ugly, plasticky looking. Not worth my RM123k.

As for the Civic, its ok lah. When I test drove it, it felt fine. The dashboard is nice, the digital speedometer is cool. Only thing was that I struggled with the paddle shift. But I think waiting list for Civic is a bit longer, for hybrid is worst - 6 months. Plus don't expect any discount for Civic.

Anyway, you should not compare Jetta with Altis and Civic because Jetta is of a better class. Should compare Accord, Camry to Jetta.

You should also check out Kia Optima, Hyundai Sonata and this very very cool care Ford Focus. Ford Focus has all the tech but dunno why it hasn't caught on in the msian market.

Probably due to the rather bland design and the serious lack of rear legroom.
