how about safety features? German cars seem more solid

honda usually tries its best to give the best package possible to its customers.
test drive the top spec city vs polo sedan.

IMHO:

cabin: city high tech with touch screens vs PS classy & mature (stripping away all the gadgets except the essentials while still not looking/feeling too cheap)
drivetrain: city 1500cc + cvt vs 1600cc + 6at, more or less on par in terms of power/pickup/fc but the cvt is better
looks: city is young and refreshing vs PS classy & mature might not appeal for youngsters
safety: on par

btw......"german" since it is made in india

Need some recommendation on a new car. Been driving a 2nd hand Saga LMST for a few years now.
Looked at a number of cars, and looks like it'll come down to either Honda or KIA.


1. Brand - As mentioned above, any other suggestions are welcomed
2. Budget - ~80-90k. Aiming for installment of RM800+ /month.
3. New/Used/Unreg. - Surveyed some cars but figured that used cars of the 1-3 years would require a payment which is almost equivalent to paying for a new car, so, prefer a new one.
4. Specs - Hopefully it has sufficient airbags and VSC.
5. Transmission - Auto, mostly driving in KL
6. NA or FI ?
7. Type - Leaning towards sedan, might consider hatchbacks as well.
8. Remarks - Looked at the new City V Spec, KIA Rio, and maybe KIA Cerato. I really like the Cerato's outlook and features though. Not really considering the Vios, coz of the features offered at that price point, and also of some quality issues I read around. I know that there's a thread somewhere around here comparing between the City and Cerato, but there's only a number of good feedback from there, so I hope I can get a good feedback from here

1. Brand : Mitsubutshi / Toyota/ Honda
2. Budget : < 140k
3. New/Used/Unreg : New only
4. Specs : any
5. Transmission : MT if possible
6. NA or FI : NA
7. Type : 5 Seater
8. Remarks : A weekend car mostly for town and highway driving. Prefer a sporty looking car with all the bells and whistle. Currently using a Myvi and a Saga for work. Performance, comfort and space would be my main concern

Hi

i wanted to ask about "USED Toyota Corolla SEG 1.6 "

this kind a car can buy for normal driving ?

thank q

This car is considered one of the more reliable cars you can get for around 15k. Engine is robust and chasis is solid.

kia rio is a cheaper choice but feels too basic.
kia cerato high spec is good but if you're going to change car within 7 years stick to honda city better.

lancer sportsback?

Sifus... Need advice from you all who know more.
I was looking around for used car, and found one 2 year car with low millage. The condition looks good (Just look...). The 2nd hand car dealer say it was a show unit. Somehow they do not have service record. And no warranty available from the maker...

My question is, will show room unit end up in a 2nd hand car garage?
Will show unit have number plate?

typical of used cars to throw away the documents or not have them.
easier to fake history and mileage, right?

Sounds fishy....

yup especially for long serving models

ignoring everything..

hows subaru wrx sti 2015? i heard some says golf r is better all round but cant get a test on the golf

Subaru STI, Evo X and Golf R are pretty much in the same league but....

Power: STI and Evo > GR
Gearbox: GR and Evo > STI
AWD: Evo > STI and GR
Looks: STI > Evo and GR (mainly coz Evo looks so Inspira)

subaru wrx sti 2015 and the only beautiful model is the manual transmission model because you get gold rim and bettter wing spoiler .

price around 280k

How come latest evo is not out in malaysia yet ?

the real limited edition variant probably won't make it here.
evox is sold here officially via mitsubishi but darn expensive, over 300k, recons are sub-200k.

I plan get second hand proton persona. But, my dad told me interest rate for second hand vehicle much more higher. No worth to get second hand car. Any advice?

basic new persona should be about 40k
2009 high line persona is about 20-24k half price, but already 5 years old.
i don't really recommend getting used proton because it's quality is subjective thus usually people discard them when the parts all starting to fail.
