I would avoid vios and city altogether as they aren’t worth your money. If you have no money, stick with myvi, otherwise go for civic/altis.

Just go for new car unless you can save a few hundred thousand to finance the property. Rental income is bad recently.

Why Vios not worth it... Is it due to FC?

Hey guys, I'm in my 30's now and I'm still single. I own a condo but still drives my dad's old Proton Waja to this day.

I'm wondering, at this point, do I purchase another house/condo (for investment purposes) or do I get myself a brand new car?

My heart tells me that I should get myself a new car (Mazda or Camry) but my gut is telling me to get a second property for investment.

So, I've listed down the pros and cons of each choices:

Buy new car
Pros:
1. It's probably time to replace my old waja. It's 20 years old.
2. Better chance to get girlfriend
Cons:
1. It's a liability. It's just a car at the end of the day.
2. Potential opportunity cost (e.g cannot invest in other things for a while)

Buy second property
Pros:
1. Potential long-term investment (not guaranteed and have to wait 10-30 years)
2. You have two houses
Cons:
1. Life is not all about buying houses like collecting pokemon cards. You need to enjoy life when young too.

What would you guys do?

the most important point was listed out by u already
''Better chance to get girlfriend''


so , go for a car...
get a gf...
go to ur condo...
piap piap piap~
happy endinig everyday~

if you are driving myvi, I will say get a 2nd property. But if you are driving a super duper old car and not even yours, go get a new car. For you own safety, image, or whatever reason.

do both buy second house, rent it out then buy a new car

if it is concern related to loan, it seems to me house loan is strict compared to car loan. So again, buy second house then new car should be fine for getting loan, but you cant say the same if buy car first then second house.

And buy those house that rental can cover most if not all of your house loan then you already solved most of your concern.

Unless it's a double storey houses, buying condo is the same as buying car, the value will go down.

Nowadays, there are too many condo around , these greedy developers keep on building more and more.

I have been trying to sell mine for many years still can't get good price.

It's better to buy blue chip stocks or a car.
