if i am not mistaken..savvy is heavier than Myvi.
anyone can clarify this ?

specs are available at www.perodua.com.my and www.proton.com.my

you can check them out. both come to almost same weight, the savvy being a bit lighter in some cases.

who own an AMT? wanna ask how much u pay per month. with & without bodykit. i calculate it using star online but i think right now proton have various promotion. so the monthly should change a bit.

what's the DP, interest rate and # of years you're calculating from?

erm...DP 5k, 4.1%, 9years. take a long time because i dont think i will change the car so fast. i'm not like certain person who love to change car often.

we r customer not a car seller, .we buy the car to enjoy the ride..as long savvy can fullfill our satisfaction, its good to me....savvy is for niche market proton not only producing savvy model, they oso producing sedan ,hatchback,coupe model..

Depends on showroom. They can take as little as RM500

U sure not 3.9%? I think its RM380/360/month for M transmission.


yes its a niche class car.

9 years for a car ?
OMG....

this is maddness.....

my advice: maintain your ride now, save more and take a shorter repayment term....

u know what, i have to cut down for monthly. if u pay monthly with 700+ and ur salary only 1200, how u gonna survive? so the longer it takes, the lower i pay per month.

hehe. you mistaken my post. i'm not asking how much DP they're asking for. i'm asking how much DP Azuma would like to put for his car to facilitate my calculation.

anyway based on my calculation with AMT + RM 3k discount and the details Azuma gives, i get about RM 442 per month.

anyway, i'm thinking of shortening the loan to 5 years instead.

if u can pay 700 per month that ok isnt it. u can shortening it for 7/5 years. anyway, for me its worth to takes longer because i'm not thinking to change car often.

yes. actually many times people say take longer not good cos you're giving the bank more.

but actually IMO it's a fair trade off. the longer the loan period allows you lesser cost per month thus improving your monthly spending power, some more they pay for you already. so the interest charged is fair.

the interest is gonna be like half the car value if u take 9 years...
that will allow you to buy 1 and a half savvy.....

yeah its a good car, but on your finance how ?

anything longer then 5 years for a car is a no no for me la...

as i mentioned earlier, u can take 5years if u can pay 700-1000 per month.

yeap i got you....
just letting my opinion heard


no harm okie?

haha..no problem. i know sometimes when we look at another aspect, taking long time loan is a waste, but it cant't be helped since we cannot pay high for monthly.

actually planning to take neo 1.6M. but i want to wait for new sedan model.

Interest rates are killing us..

What do you guys think about used savvys? A year old car would cost around 28k. Which is pretty attractive. Any specific problem or issue to check out?

yeah, because this is boleh-land.....
but seriously u should reconsider buying a car until you are better financially....

savvy is so far so good, but touch wood you get a lemon car, then u gonna have a problem also....

hehe...


*prepare flamesuit*

i've come by people who say take as long a loan as possible. and i've come by people who say don't bother buying a car unless you can pay it all off in 2 years.

so either way, it has it's pros and cons. sure, the interest is like nearly half the value of your car if you take 9 years, but as i said you get more spending power each month. so it's like either you
a) pay less per month, but more overall
b) pay more a month, but less overall.
c) any other more / less between points a) and b)

Don't think there'll be sedan version of Neo...

Is it that cheap??? Where did u find it???
