After 318i ended with the F30, G20 320i= poorfag bimmer. 330i M-sport drives and looks much better.

As for Matsuda 3, ktards claim it's better than bimmer. Can't comment as I've never driven the new Matsuda 3, only newer Matsuda I have tried is 2015 Matsuda 6 grand tourer and CX-5 2020. But I honestly don't think they are on par with BMW.

Mazda 3 so so only. still using 6 AT.

because it is direct injection fuels, mazda need to do carbon cleaning too on and off.

If want to buy used BMW get 320d (Turbo Diesel), most Diesel engine got less issue compare to petrol counterparts.

BWM 3 series -
Pro =  Bigger Segment D, RWD, 8 Speed-Automatic
Con = More expensive to maintain

Mazda 3 -
Pro = Cheaper to maintain
Con = Smaller Segment C, 6 Speed Automatic, FWD only
*
yea, mazda 3 is smaller in size and cabin size.

To be frank, Mazda for me not worth, premium price, spare part more expensive than other 2 jap counterparts

Nah, this is every Malaysian beloved CX5

those who buy Mazda not so much care about their downside. uncle agree tho.

as long as it is not rotary engine, it should be good. but the gearbox/clutch oil is seal, make people confused.

Also the weird tyre size.

For CX-5, it is really clamp inside for the passager row.

Anyway, CX-5 still better than Tiguan etc.

Ts driving distance. Seal/model 3 vs bmw 320 not much difference in savings one. The bmw engine is very efficient.. drive EV his distance will need daily charging, so fast will hit TNB ICPT surcharges

TS never look into total cost of ownership

You can service X50 3-4 times for every time you service a BMW. If you continue to use run flat tyres, 1 RFT tyre can easily buy 3 X50 tyres.

Oh yea, it's a 2020 BMW so sooner or later you will need to change the wear and tear parts. Brake pads, suspension and etc. If you're unlucky, coolant line may leak.

Basically on average you need to budget around 5-6k/year for a period of 5 years just on maintenance based on your 120km daily travel.

Contrary to popular believes, newer BMWs are actually reliable. But the wear and tear parts arent's cheap. Just get Mazda with free maintenance. tongue.gif

BMW also free maintenance 5 years
