Fresh grad don't buy used car
You'll have sleepless night should it give problem to you

How about getting Perodua Axia or Perodua Bezza
It is new and it will serve you without problems for easily 5 years.

I disagree. Being a fresh graduate, it is the ripe time for one to get a used car and started the very basic of knowing your car, what and how to repair and learn to take care of your car. Yes, u'll have more issues and problems due to wear and tear however only with that, one can get to learn what is what and then the solution. The fastest way to grow is through challenges and problem solving. That's how we move forward anyway.

Vios is very attractive because of the good discount its offering. Never own any korean car before so not really sure the RV. Because plan to use this car maybe for 2 to 3 years and will move to oversea so RV definitely in consideration.
City overall is good rounder but leaning toward cerato and vios more due to more discount given at this point
Very mixed review for cerato because some say handling is good some say is trash. Didn test drive it before.
Since it include so much feature like a conti , not sure their parts are durable as well or not. So far i see owner complaint the fast dying batt only. Not much end user review locally too

If u are planning to get a used car and not selling it off in coming 2 to 3 years time, a used cerato is a very good choice as the used car price for a cerato version 2.0 year 2014 is around 7xk only considering a new cerato 2.0 is priced at around 120k.

Do go and test drive all three but i believe u'll find the cerato version 2.0 much more powerful with better gadgets available compared to a vios or a city.

Considering a high mileage car especially those baring the emblem of bmw , audi and merz may not be a good idea.

The higher the mileage is, the higher the possibility that a part will be due for replacement lol.

Hi, I would like to enquire for

1. Brand = Toyota Camry
2. Budget = RM 80,000++
3. New/Used/Unreg = Used ( Preferably 2012 car )
4. Specs = 2.0 / 2.4
5. Transmission = Automatic

Is it possible to get a 2012 camry with this budget?

Besides, may I know total there is how many variance for camry ( looking for the one with reverse camera )
** I only manage to get limited info for the spec variance
Thanks

Yes it is possible, just click a few on mudah.my and u will get a list but few comes with reverse camera though.

If I'm not mistaken umw only brought in 2 variance for the previous generation namely e and g series with an addition of trd add on.

Harrier recon latest generation is pretty good all rounder if u don't mind the underpowered engine and definitely carry a better impression compared to crv. Personally i'll say the design is much sleeker and sportier too just dislike the rear signals which are located at the bumpers. If u can stretch your budget a bit, get a demo local unit probably around 230k even better. Recon units are like hit and miss, may have more features but then likely will have some form of 'accident' and comes with much higher mileage. For latest generation harrier, go for year 2022 onwards which come with full digital meter.
