QUOTE(nelsonmui87 @ Jun 29 2016, 10:11 AM) Hi morning, every sifu. i can only offer these few sens worth of advice......Having 2 questions regarding Used Camry . 1. Camry 2007 pre-facelift (ACV40) vs 2009 facelift (ACV40 Face Lift)? Any advice? View both car. Found the following difference. A. Keyless entry & Push Start & Better look of car key B. HID headlamp vs XENON. (What's the difference? Does HID visibility is better a lot than XENON?) C. Auto dimming rear view mirror (For me is nothing) D. New Grill, bumper, Rear lamp (didn't found the difference yet, except rear lamp) A,B,C and D are all added value/aesthetical stuff, its perceived value really depends on you as the buyer E. New player that compatible with reverse camera (This is a must to me, because is my wife driving, she insist need camera, so will install aftermarket if stock doesn't come with this, any advice for model and price?) assuming you want a good head unit with a monitor, that would cost around 800-2k depending on the specs...... (am guessing, I am no audiophile) as for the camera if you are willing to go for those really cheap china units, it is really cheap, it you buy via online and diy, the camera costs 20 bucks option 2, is to not get a whole new headunit just for the screen rear view camera/mirror, which costs another 40 the pro is that its easy to setup and you dont need to get another headunit if you dont have one...... the con is you will lose the dimmer functionality (as one can tell im a big fan of this china monitor cheapo monitor, its one of the few china cheapo products i can accept installed in my own car) F. Price. 2008 pre-facelift around RM70k vs 2010 facelift around RM90k. heuristically dependent on your needs, likes, car condition and offers you receive basically for 20k more, you get a few upgrades (not sure but i think cruise control was added, and some things were done to the front chair), some asthetical changes, and a car newer by 2 years..... under all those changes, the car is still basically the same 2. Car color. Prefer white color. Does this pearl white hard to maintains? So far I found there's only several white camry for sell in JB area. compared to what colors? all i know is that white and black are usually more difficult to keep clean.... watermarks, basically everything can be seen if you dont clean the car often. silver, brown, green, gold are great!!

QUOTE(tekplyrX @ Jun 29 2016, 12:49 PM) Hello sifus, 2nd hand dealer, u will have to ask them cause there is no 'standard' price they have all sorts of processing fees.....(basically everything will be hiked up cause they say they have runners to do it for you)If I want to buy a 2nd hand car (cash not loan). How much "extra" do I need to have in hand to cover the other expenses (e.g. insurance, change of ownership, inspections e.t.c)? In particular i am considering this one bmw e46 320i so far, when i went to some cars last year; (just as an example for you, i viewed and asked about many cars...) 1)waja, they wanted 27.5k for the car and another 4.5k for the processing fees so 32k in total. Cant remember the breakdown of the processing fees but basically car would have been insured comprehensively for 20k, rest of the 4.5k was supposed to be processing fees (they probably did this to make the car seem attractive online) 2)celica, they wanted 36k for the car and another 6k for the processing fees so 42k in total. also cannot remember the breakdown of the processing fees 3)clk230, they wanted 40k for the car and another 3k for the processing fees so 43k in total. 4)e46 , they wanted 22k for the car and another 3k for the processing fees so 25k in total. (earlier batch hence the price) 4)fto , they wanted 30k for the car and another 2k for the processing fees so 32k in total. 4)seg , they wanted 15k for the car and another 1k for the processing fees so 16k in total. |

QUOTE(dark90 @ Jun 29 2016, 02:01 PM) 1. Brand : Proton or VW reliable, and dry clutches are very rarely if ever used together in the same sentence.... it's a risk you have to bear if you want such a car...2. Budget : 70-90 3. New/Used/Unreg : New 4. Specs : - 5. Transmission : Auto 6. NA or FI : 7. Type : Sedan 8. Remarks : I'm actually just looking for a reliable family car sedan. Got Honda City at home, so i'll minus that of my list. test drive the new Vento, and i'm loving it, just concerned with the DSG gearbox. advice guys? test drive Preve and Suprima before still not sure what to buy.. advice pls. QUOTE(andrewyu2005 @ Jun 29 2016, 02:06 PM) Please go and get Suprima S standard because it is cheaper than preve cfe and it's interior quality is better than preve cfe. If you love vento,then stick with vento. omaigod why......Suprima S/preve cfe use the EXACT same interior panels wherever it can be reused.... there is no quality/built dif between the 2 QUOTE(dark90 @ Jun 29 2016, 02:21 PM) when you say downgraded to B segment they lower down the specs of the engine is it? the space is also downgraded? who mentioned downgrade??b seg = smaller than c seg, thats it a Myvi with a 7000cc turbo and supercharged engine would still be a B segment |

QUOTE(tekplyrX @ Jun 29 2016, 03:13 PM) 2.0 is the n46, had some issues with the chain, valvesomething (forgot ape they panggil dah) so, not the best engine developed by bmw (to be fair was told it isnt something that will necessarily happen but it was a problem for some)on the plus side, the 2.0 is probably one of the more rare models to find here.... so very unlikely you bump into one (at least i myself have never seen the n46 before) QUOTE(digilife @ Jun 29 2016, 03:23 PM) Not really sure, hearsay only and was advice to look for either 1.9L M43B19 or better still M54B25 engines car ehh ade reason.... u join the bmw club and they will telll you all about it! be warned however, they tend to love the 6 potters alot more than the 4 potter siblings! they will try poison you!!! |

QUOTE(tekplyrX @ Jun 29 2016, 03:52 PM) when i asked the otai's in the bmw clubs thats the reply i got haha im just relaying the info each person you ask has a different opinion, so up to you to kumpul the info and come up with your own conclusion.... then if you do buy the car and own it for a while, you can reformulate your conclusion based on your own conclusion hehe QUOTE(digilife @ Jun 29 2016, 04:12 PM) If you are fine with the annual RT of abt rm860, just get a 2.5L M54B25 Beemer. more powerful & better FC hehe yelah... problem is tax tax tax!!..... otherwise my grubby fingers would probably have latched onto a 1jz e36 already ~~ then again did end up with a very pretty car (at least to me), so no complaints I seen one and almost paid a rm1k deposit but my eagle eye mech fren open the engine oil cap , smell it, peep inside , saw a lot of sludge , advice me to abort the purchase cause it will require an overhaul , minimum top overhaul to solve it. But the auto transmission was good & speed damn powerful , 2.5L the way to go bro........... QUOTE(dark90 @ Jun 29 2016, 03:40 PM) i cannot say if its important or not haha..... its something great to have in an emergency..... it might save your lifeI personally believe that, if you have good tyres and drive responsibly, its good enough.... you should not be getting yourself in a scenario where you really need vsc to save you but then again, in the back of my head i know that sometimes shit happens whether you like it or not~ |

QUOTE(zenix @ Jun 29 2016, 06:45 PM) 1. First of all, is your Seller still owing the bank any money? If so, he needs to do a settlement with the bank first. You probably need to make an agreement with him that you write a cheque and get him to settle the bank loan first. Within a week, the car will be ready for transfer. 2. Seller to proceed to Puspakom to have his car checked. He need to provide you with the B5 (for JPJ transfer). This will cost him RM30. Or he can get a runner to do it, add about RM100 (he will bear it all). 3. You need to purchase the insurance for the car. You can use iMoney to get more information on this and compare before going to the insurance agent/office. 4. Bring your Puspakom documents and Insurance cover note and proceed to JPJ to complete the transfer. a) Both Seller and Buyer must be present. If not, you need to get a commissioner of oaths to verify the absent parties on a Borang Akuan (JPJ-SAB01 and JPJ-SAB02). Write a simple authorization letter for a representative along with photocopies of his identification card. b) Fill up Borang TM-1 and two copies of JPJ-K3. c) Transfer costs is borne by the Buyer (i.e. you) and should cost RM100. If you do not have the time, you can hire a runner to do it (add about RM200). 5. Once done, you pay the Seller the rest of the money owed and Seller will hand over the car and keys to you. This can also happen in step 1, depending on your arrangement with your Seller. sos |

QUOTE(alexhee @ Jun 29 2016, 03:03 PM) I currently own a manual myvi and I do not have a deep understanding about cars, just the basic concept. What I really have in mind now is IS250(06-07), MK6, Civic 2.0(06-10), Mark X. I am ready to set 5k on maintenance and issues that might arise per year on top of my instalment. I am open to any car that looks a bit sporty and luxury with good handling, fun to drive and reliability(as long I fixed the major issue, it wont come back in short term). just wana add a few things, Thank you in adv. decide upon what type of car you want first..... do you want a track/ready kind of car or are you looking for a sporty luxury car? a track ready car would be like the type r, scooby, evo powerful and raw but nothing much going in the comfort/luxury/gizmo department... these cars tend to be less refined (noisy, bumpy suspension, sometimes more difficult to drive). the mark x and the IS250 are more luxury oriented with a powerful heart. they have the performance and can definitely shift if needed but they might seem less..... hectic, less rushed..... other cars you can look at are; -euro accord (cl9) (loved the cl7 back then , cl9 with the k series engine seems like more win) -kizashi (not sure if it is really a sporty powerful car but poped to mind so yeah~) -something else popped in and ran away.... cannot remember now zzzzzzzz my opinion is you need to decide on which type of car you want to live with first |
