For my age (30+) and single guy currently i wanted to at least achieve the brand i want first

As we matured, car brands do not matter unless you’re in sales/MLM/real estate/scammer

rule no 1. dont use ur money to impress ppl u dont like

Yeah, why not? I still enjoy driving the small & cheerful Kelisa time to time..

I think as car guys, we aim to impress only ourselves by buying our dream cars which gives us great driving enjoyment & pleasure😊

Yes, I did it when I lost my job about 4 years back. I had a Toyota Corolla but then I shifted to Suzuki Alto.

Honda City to 2 cars now, Myvi and Bezza

Not downgrade but retain the old car as long as it did not give any problem. Do I tempted with latest gadget on new car, yes. But retaining a fully paid car make life much comfortable and stress free

Honda city right?

2015 Honda Accord. Already near 230k km and still without any xmass light on the dashboard to this date

from Honda to Axia. at the end of day. it still get me from point A to B.

Downgrade to reduce monthly payment is a great realisation

I use to pay 1500 for my car ( 2nd hand beemer ) meaning service and break fix out of my pocket.

My loan tenure was 5 years and I paid final year lump sum and got some discounts

I took care of the car well and now it’s taking care of me. I’ve not had a car loan for the last 4 years and thinking about it hard, I just cannot take another car loan because whilst I get a new car, thinking of the bank making profits out of my hard work and worst is the new car feeling will fade a way after 3 to 4 weeks

After that you think people impress with your car but truth is no one give a fuck about you if it ain’t a top tier beemer or ultra luxury sedan.


The notion of serving another loan to me is just ridiculous. Will drive my car til the wheel drop off and then look for another capable by a private seller. Hard to find something to beat a rwd, 460nm 230 Hp diesel machine with cars on the road today within 200k

We are in the same boat. Eyeing many used private seller later once the car atart to pick up problem

Just use whatever car that you want & need depending on your affordability at that time...

What la have to think about this

Affordability is one thing. Cheaper than usual market rate usually got story behind the car and it’s not owner leaving overseas hence urgent sell. If market rate for civic is 80k and u see one for 60k, avoid it

Willing seller willing buyer.

Nevertheless, the buyer must always be smarter.

need to knw why "downgrade" if due to money, boh pian lo

I downgraded from Alza to RX-7 FC Savanna

the most comfy car is the 1 fully paid

Started with Kancil, still with Kancil.
Refueling is cheap!
