Trawling and trawling the internet and the 2015 WRX is really cool. Actually more than cool! Darn itchy to get it, feels like want to go to MI this weekend and place my deposit liao. But after hearing the bad MI service and expensive maintanence... scare liao. Bola kecut!

Should I stay safe and just get the F3cking New Teana 2.5XV and be just an ordinary and regular Mat Joe.

P/S I F3cking want the red one!

Normal service and maintenance is quiet reasonable price la for performance car~ if some thing parts broken or damage still can enjoy 5years warranty ~

try consider the 2015 Subaru WRX ~ sure different experience compare with normal sedan car ~

And it will be on the high end of 200K.. numbers are being thrown around at 276k to 296k... we'd just have to wait and see. Anything less than that will be a bonus.

Golf GTI Tech Spec dropped RM 20K to be around RM 210K.... bye bye Subaru, if their WRX 2015 launch price is RM 250K.

VWM service center dekat dekat aje... no need for me to drive all the way to PJ for MI service center.

Test drived the Teana liao. OK lar... still el cheapo. Test drived the new Mazda6 also. It has more Wow factor. But Mazda6 price is also WOW!

I am torn between being a responsible family man (and go for comfort & prestige ala Teana 2.5XV) or to satisfy my inner boy-racer persona and go for Golf GTI.

That is why still undecided.

Golf gti was overpriced in the first place in my opinion.

I would think the wrx 2015 with CVT would be tagged around low 240ish k and possibly with some early bird discount like when I bought the Fxt, which was 10k. Till today they reduced the discount and replaced with some free stuff.

I feel you should give wrx a go. After all it is more powerful than gti with awd and definitely more practical in terms of space. As in another thread sleepwalker mentioned about putting down more than 200hp on 2wd and compared to awd is a different world. And also as he mentioned, if you move to sti its a different universe, which I totally agree.

So far in my journey towards a fun/weekend car I have test driven three cars, namely Teana 2.5XV, 2014 Mazda6 & Golf GTI (MK-VII). I am waiting to test drive the 2015 WRX when she comes to Malaysia (circa end of 2014). For some Kopitiam flavour I will try to match the female celebrities to these car:

Let's start with the Teana 2.5XV:

Safe, comfort, motherly.... like the decent looking dame Susan Sarandon

And finally... something on my bucket list and I have not test driven yet: The REX!

She's tough, strong, muscular, agile. She looks hot even when she's down, dirty, sweaty and covered in dirt and grime. She's a fighter... Emily Blunt as Rita Vrataski (Edge of Tomorrow)

and Michelle Rodriguez as Letty Ortiz (Fast & Furious)

Bring up this thread as it's been more than 1 year, but TS didn't mention whether he bought the Legacy or other makes?

Yup, based on his earlier choices of Camry, Teana and Accord. That's a big difference. But probably a smart choice. We men tend to want what we desire, rather than what we can actually afford or what we actually need. Maybe he realise he doesn't need a bigger capacity car based on how he travels and the size of his family. No point stretching the budget.
