It's not wise to use 43% of ur monthly salary to pay car instalment. And yup, u havent include other expenses for the car - maintenance, car wash, bodykit, insurance, etc. U should probably go for cars lower than RM100k. As gunplakk said, since you are young, it is better to buy house (asset) rather than a car (liability) which is depreciating.

I know, the Z is so hot n sexy but u need to be careful on ur budget. U might get the car now, enjoy the glamour but later u might struggle hard to buy a house. Better plan for ur future with sufficient savings.

I just cant stand it anymore ,now it come with LED light ahhh. Ya should listen to you guys,more experience than me. That why im asking for help here now i know i still cant afford it Anyway thank you for your advice much appreciate it!

P/s: my second option is secondhand civic

Work hard/smart and one day u will get ur dream car

Thanks for the advice Bro, The SC itself called me up yesterday BEFORE I could call up and ask. They said the stock for the paper filter had arrived. I could send it back there now to change the air filter and also reseal the Windscreen due to the squeeking sound at high speed. They said it will take about 1 or 2 days as it needs to dry after resealing the windscreen. Is this true? They said if I can't wait , I could take the car on that day itself but I have to bare the risk of the windscreen not being properly sealed since the glue had is not dried yet

Why la put yourself thru financial difficulties just to prove yourself to a shallow material girl?

After you get the car and got a new GF how? bring her go makan nasi lemak kosong everytime u go paktor?

chabutzzzz

Yalah, no need trouble yourself and put on so much debt. That gold digging biatch don't deserve your attention and effort. Just be yourself. Hope u will find a better girl

Chinese say : "In the forest, there is more than one tree"....
Walk away from that gal, and go find someone more worth your time and effort. My "GF" went with me thru thick and thin, and I tackled her using a kapchai only.... she is now my wife.

On a serious note, when I was earning RM3k salary, i only had a kapchai (first Modenas), and only could get a Proton Wira 1.3 manual when my salary was bumped up to RM5k. Naturally I had more liabilities as compared to yourself, and cars were tools back then, not fashion accessories. It took some time for me to be financially stable (like 10 years), which then I decide to enjoy some fruits of my labour, which I end up with a CRZ (with wife's approval of course).

Have some patience, sometimes good things comes to those who wait... good luck!
P/s: you can ignore me if you think I m giving you a grandpa advise I sometimes do that...

One thing to note, paper filter is different from charcoal filter ya Original came with charcoal filter, but i guess that's where the smell comes from, thus paper filter should eliminate the smell.
As for the windscreen, I suggest you let the glue set before taking the car. I had my windscreen replaced before (in my other workhorse, not the CRZ), and was not allowed to take the car away (the ah pek say he will whack me on the head with a spannar if I do that), thus had to leave the car there overnight. You may displace the windscreen if too much juddering happens while you drive.
Good luck, and let us know how does the paper filter work ya!

Are those LED position light bright enough to act like day time running light?

Sorry to hear about that, what you need to show is you can have a better life without "her" Jia You

Yeah, can even see it clearly under the bright sun.

Lol bro, chills. Your just 22, work 2-3 more years, get enough savings then if then you think you can support yourself. Then go for it. Thats what i did also. Never ever buy a car to impress people. Buy it as an achievement.. lol

Work hard.... 31, driving swift not to say very successful. I was driving a kancil until I was 30. Then they launched the FD2... i bought that. but by then... I have paid off my 1st house and bought my 2nd.
and while i was driving a kancil... i still had gfs .
Then when my FD got a little old, i changed it to a Z. but buying a Z, I expect to keep it for very long time, it wont have 2nd hand value. unlike FD2.

Good idea, Ada GAYA meh, the next 9 years, eat Maggi mee, don't buy any clothes, stay in the office use the office toilet to save water and electric bills. Try to get free breakfast/lunch/dinner from your boss/colleagues. Don't go for holidays unless it's free. :jthumbs:

Not really your dream car??????? Eager to buy 100k+ car to impress ex gf?. Go buy a Porsche or a BMW or Mercedes, Range Rover should be good , better still get a Lambo or a Ferrari. Then you ex gf will be impressed. Go play far-far boy no wonder she ditched you

The faulty smell of the air cond and squeaking sound in the car/windscreen, does it apply to the new FL model too??
