QUOTE(wild_card_my @ Aug 24 2013, 09:41 PM) Is that net or gross? I am going to assume that it is net and say, as per your income, yes you can own it. But it will be a financial strain for your because it takes about 30% of your salary. Hi there. Don't you think also depends on the amount of loan you taking and years of repayment as well. For instance, if you able to put in RM100k downpayment, then loan RM140k for 6 years, I think can still manage at RM2,2k per month instalment @2.3% interest. If it is gross, then your net is probably RM5500 and roughly calculating I don't think you can get the loan because the monthly commitment would be more than 33% of nett income already In short, you can buy it but probably not afford it. But in other hand.. quite pricey lor to maintain...  |

QUOTE(sLapshock @ Aug 27 2013, 05:52 AM) 100k downpayment. Wow. Better do it before next month coz likelihood of revising the term of loan from 9 years to 7 years. Thought of 30k downpayment, 9years For me, I am going for balloon financing so i can start low instalment in the beginning and then increasing over the years.. I think this is a better plan for me. Nowadays loan very difficult from bank, I even need my wife to be guarantor |

QUOTE(Mamapapamsia @ Aug 27 2013, 07:31 PM) Oklah not much difference. Mine i took is 7 years. But the wait is killing! I had a go in the new mk7 gti and was so tempted to change to gti cause can get the car in 1 mth but at the end of the day decided to stick with A250 Yeah... I was so 15/16 on the A200 or A250... finally decided to go for A250... more expensive but everything extra are worth it  |

QUOTE(goldfries @ Aug 28 2013, 10:49 PM) mind sharing what are they key difference? Hi. Some key differences are:I've been exploring those 2 but seems like the A250 has higher displacement, more fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The standard equipment seem to be same. a) 1.6cc turbocharged (A200) vs 2.0cc turbocharged (A250) b) AMG parts (suspension, sport rims, bodykit) on the A250 c) red angel eyes ring on the projector lights of A250 d) Diamond grill on the A250 e) interior aircond vents with red rings f) more details you can refer to http://www.mercedes-benz.com.my/content/ma...model-navi:w176 |

QUOTE(goldfries @ Aug 29 2013, 12:09 PM) yes, that's the page i studied. most of the differences you mentioned are cosmetic, that's why I didn't mention. Wow... i didn't know u consider AMG parts as cosmetic?? Those are performance upgrades. Even I test drive both A200 and A250, A250 has better response and handling.point a) is like what i pointed out. |

QUOTE(kaiser_falco @ Aug 29 2013, 01:32 PM) point A and B is the key different the rest are cosmetic with a batch of sport introduction. and you guys should see A45 AMG (variant 1) coming in by september or october, but unfortunately for the first badge only 20 unit have been order and all sold out. Hi there, just curious what is A45 selling price at? A250 does feel different if compare to A200 but if you are not a fan of sport tuning you might find the ride is a little bit stiff and hard less comfort compare to A200. Thanks. |
