not interested in inspira coz dun wanna spend time in SC. sylphy is a really good choice except for its look. jetta is on that segment but not on my budget. zoidberg is what car?

well, previously really like hatch for its look. however the hatchback is not practical for me as I need boot. Comfort is good as it is going to be family car. What i heard is the torque from the focus is good compared to others.

The car I am choosing in between have their own good and bad I am considering on:

i own an inspaliah and i agree with you, shit proton produce shit car. good for nothing, everyday stuck in SC, problem can never fix, and in the end say it's their law reject to fix. f***ing proton vmad.gif vmad.gif vmad.gif vmad.gif

but yes i echo with dares
from your list, ONLY the syphy/focus are worth it. and of course can consider jetta which is priced @ 130k
DSG is a hit or miss, if it works fine, it'll be one hella fun family car. if it doesn't, just spend time in VW workshop, i heard they got free milo there.
if you're OK with DSG, then it's between focus and jetta, no other choice. (do take note focus also on DCT just like VW jetta, cept ford has a better reputation on their reliability/SC/warranty)

in fact, being in malaysia, lancer is not a car to ever consider at all. buying lancer when inspaliah (regardless how paliah it is) is just retarded. anything a lancer can have an inspaliah can have it at a FRACTION of price. and what inspaliah can have, even an original lancer in malaysia doesn't have.

look at this http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.my/#/car/lancer_2.0gte
until now DIE DIE also dun wan to fit ASC on it, if you want that you need to buy the sportback that's 15k more.
understandably, the ASC system brand new is ~10k for all the parts but in malaysia, half cut for a year 2006 car is easy to obtain, hence that system is only ~2-4k depending on how good you are at hunting parts/installer installing etc.

hmm, mazda 3 cbu. looks good but the spec not good. hmm, quite true that most car are not worth its price.
dunno leh. personally think it still look uncle. wow, really same price wor. spec quite good. how come that day hear at radio is Rm160k. hmm, maybe hear wrongly. but then again, is the DSG reliable? yes. it is to consider as long term car. the jetta does have a very good spec.

160k is for Passat lah. DSG should be no issue. Just treat it like how you would treat Ur gf la.. Oh wait, if you piap piap Ur gf/waifu like it's Armageddon tomorrow.. Then nothing can save Ur DSG la.. brows.gif or you mau consider Peugeot? 408 ok juga.. 1.6 tebu 125k..

Shit, I wanna change my nickname liao..

If I know some idiot is gonna to link my post for "technical info", I should have change the post fast...

Just change just now, just in case. I gotta clear my name....but then again I did write that idiot post..

"LCP will shorten the gear ratio means it will switch the gear pretty fast and increase acceleration without car original gear ratio pulling the car back (PE got major tendency to do that). Thus without LCP, I won't even consider driving PE now." ----> Totally wrong. What I mean is, it will shorten the time when upshifting the gear, earlier than before LCP installation. NOTHING to DO with gear ratio...I gila liao when I wrote this earlier.

I think that will do....if some idiot repost that again.

The car I am choosing in between have their own good and bad I am considering on:

Toyota Corolla Altis 1.8:
Pros:
-Good fc and reliability and comfort.
-Somehow the looks is ok

Cons:
-1.8 doent have all the specs that is offered in 2.0 which I want to have
-If really want a 2.0, will not choose the altis

Hyundai Elantra:
Pros:
-Really like the looks

Cons:
-Reliability of Hyundai
-Resale( dun really care)

Mitsubishi Lancer
Pros:
-2.0 Mivec is good
-18" wheels with multilink suspension is perfect
-The looks is still attractive and handsome after so many years.

Cons:
-Seems to be quite bad in fc based on owner review and online data
-The age for the model is quite old, no major update had been done till now

Honda Civic:
Pros:
-Reliability and fc and comfort lvl is high enough
-Multilink suspension
-Can look good with bodykit

Cons:
-No more honda vtec feel of power
-Very bad spec sheet when compared to other cars

Kia Cerato
Pros:
-equipped with tons of gadgets and specs
-look cool but not my style

Cons:
-reliabilty of Kia
-service center problem
-1.6 not enough omph in power if 2.0 dun feel like getting cerato.
-fc so so
Ford Focus Sedan
Pros:
-Filled with all kinds of features
-Powerful than others
-feels premium a bit

Cons:
-Heard that warranty parts need too long of waiting time
-doesnt feel cool enough
-fc not that low. only slightly ok

Nissan slyphy
Pros:
-reliability, fc, and comfort is good
-quite well equpped
-fc spec sheet looks good

Cons:
-Looks are a bit on uncle side
-doesnt feel new enough
*
I presume ur budget level is around 110-125k then..
For me choices for a long term and reliable car
1) Ford Focus Sedan - Powershift DSG, good engine, FC not super low like Slyphy, soft suspension, very properly spec, driver leg area abit cramp( but u small size nvm), spare parts waiting time not that long seriously, low defect rate compared to Jetta, but overall a very good car.

2) Nissan Slyphy - X-tronic CVT man!!, very good drive train, can maintain power all the time as it is seamless CVT (no fake ratio to simulate gear changes), looks fresh and huge, proven very reliable engine and gearbox, bang for buck, low maintenance car.

3) Mazda 3 2.0 CBU - SkyActiv Engine is a very very very good FC engine in real world consumption. good conti feel to the car, interior a bit drab, reliability not sure and maintenance not sure.
