Asking for a family member. What will you recommend? Can be SUV, sedan etc

Preferably brand new not secondhand and dont want EV/PHEV, but can consider too

Currently eyeing X1 u11, 320i g20, Merc CLA, Harrier

More bang for your buck and reliability + RV will be Harrier

The rest all entry level and expect the cost of owning conti.

Lexus RX300

i think better sort out what are the car main purpose for? and then decide which type to go, ie. SUV or Sedan
for long distance, I would prefer Sedan
for older folks with mix of urban and long distance, SUV

CLA no need headache since you rich

conti vs japanese not much different if went to that Category.

For that price I would go for S60.

No head no tail. Family member how old, 22?

Nah..

Anything not Chinese

Camry

Young executive 320/330
Young lady / new family x1 or any BMW SUV
Family with kids Harrier/Lexus/Mazda SUV/Honda CRV

Wait for Mazda CX60

I agree with the above ^

With TS's budget, might as well get this.

X1 feels cramp at the back
320i underpowered
CLA made of cheap plastics and don't have rear aircond blower
Harrier feels underpowered and doesn't have a premium badge

For that money i would get a S60 T8, but you don't want PHEVs.

year end event allover , get in there and hunt for it. i think something currently going on bmw

age, who, uses?

CR-V RS (hybrid). Spacious, very comfy, handles surprisingly good (of course not CX-5 level but pretty good for hunky SUV).

depend on your purpose and who is the driver

if old uncle then just get recond Lexus NX or RX (but older gen) or Harrier

if die die want conti brand ; GLC


dont tell me u are picking CLA and plan to fetch 5 adult including elder parents

subaru wrx manual
corolla GR manual, but > 300k?

kia carnival 8s high or 7s.

test drive first then only comment

Highly recommend recond Toyota Crown 2.4L RS ADVANCE spec yr 2021-2023,
Probably best 200-300k car, 2.4L turbo hybrid AWD with 2 motor generator & 6speed automatic, 340HP/543Nm for 5.1sec 0-100km/h, FC average 8L/100km, adaptive suspension with rear wheel steering for sporty cornering while comfy passing over bumps, ventilated front seats perfect for our climate, wireless Apple CarPlay & android auto, made in jp quality I guess if u care.

Only negative I can think of are that u r paying over rm80k in import duty (included in the price), oversized 21inch rim that will make replacing tire fucking expensive, and subpar JBL speaker.

no need with offcial + salesman discount can <300k

sime darby auto selection , bmw x3 2024. below 300k

could also look for 2022 glc300, below 300k

With such a broad question with only budget in mind, I can't help but to think the potential buyer is not a car enthusiast, just wanna get a luxury car for status and call it a day 🤷‍♀️

Ask la your family, what preferences and constraints...

Why not consider EVs?

It’s the best time now due to tax breaks.

Go test drive one and talk to EV owners.

If daily driving less than 200km and live in landed house, it’s really a no brainer.

EV brands to consider: BMW, Tesla, Smart, Hyundai, Kia, BYD, Volvo

Crv highest spec jer la

Tank 300 if you’re the type whom value been unique

matsuda highest spec or lexus

Can consider Toyota Harrier or Lexus cars, worry-free, reliable.
