Guys,

Need advise, My CRV gen 5.5 next year turn 5th year, so mean no more warranty from Honda.

Do you think I should sell the car to get another new car like x50?

I have my loan Rm85000 mean if I sell it, I still can breakeven and get x50...

also my CRV model is old model I don't want to pay monthly payment for an old car with no reselling value...

plan to topup sikit?

Yes, a few k... but safe on road tax side...

What's the reason on changing?

Just want a new car?

Don't need big sized c segment SUV wanting to downgrade to smaller B segment SUV?

If financial sense, You're not saving anything by buying a new car.

X50?

Remember to query the SA many times on spare parts availability and lead time. Otherwise, pointless to change it need to wait weeks or months while still paying the installments.

Why la TS you want to downgrade to X50? Just use your current CRV better la..

as mention la, no more warranty after 5 year... also old model.
x50 still new still have resale value..

better hold 1st until latest news

Understood, thank you for the information. I will check on it.

crv->X50 mcm downgrade je, should get Cherry Omada c9 ma

I'm inclined to this.

Try putting all your details in Gemini Pro and ChatGPT Pro. See what you get. I tried both and got two different results.
Gemini - keep until minimum 12 years, buy used car.
ChatGPT - sell year 9, buy used car.


My Kia Sorento Diesel already 8 years old. Fully paid. Warranty 5 years.

It makes no financial sense for me to change car. Need to pay loan every month. Say the car needs maintenance, at most per year is 2 month loan or maybe 3 month loan.

As of now, I plan to keep the car 12 years at least, until I find the car that I want to change to...then buy used. Whatever I save from depreciation in the first few years can be used for maintenance of the car.

Yeah, this is another headache, when govt implement ron95 using mykad, will they cut off our subsidy... ?
so by getting x50 smaller vehicle saver fuel.

if keep 12 years my crv no more resale value...

proton resale value not good also

after few years also downward spiral

For your 5 year old Honda you cry mother father resale value potong what you expect le? Also a very important question is how often you want to visit workshop? You bought your Honda new so if you dont pedal to medal and service regularly high chances there will be less worry for constant workshop visits.

If u got Amoi size frame ok x50 but if u badak better stick to CRV.

Ha ha... just a mere survey question, so far the CRV is in good condition serve me well.

Just that mileage already 60,000km... feel like not worth to continue paid a outdated vehicle..

if honda not so constantly redesign their car like proton, than I would stick to it...

Yes. That is why I put my entire car data, finance situation etc in ChatGPT Pro and Gemini Pro. Let it calculate and decide. To see how much better off. Time to change or keep. Since the paid model got advance research, so it can get all the data needed to give you comprehensive insight into your situation.

It's a Honda, 12 years will still have value. The bigger question is continuous maintaining it for few more years then sell or sell and topup. Will depreciation cost more or not.

With my Kia, I got two different results with both paid version, and I accept both views. Only now is, as my current car is 99% under porch throughout lifetime (work and home under porch), headlamp still clear, mileage just 106k km, and other owners already go pass 200k km without any major issues, I don't see the need to change now. I am not sure about your own situation though.

From Honda Malaysia model to Geely model, one thing that sure upgrade are the NVH, exterior noise and tyre noise. Had HM model, the sound insulation materials installed are just minimal, that's for my Accord.

For parts availability, both Proton and HM need 2-3 weeks for parts claim, ie from SC - claim part from HQ, cz SC never keep many parts at their store. This 2-3 weeks many were assumed parts are not available, hard to get etc.

Not sure for financial reason, TS can calculate that based on his financial factors.

I owned x50 then I got CRV 5.5 (used), and i don't think x50 is much saver fuel than CRV. The cabin space, boot space and the comfort is not what x50 (older gen, not the current gen) can compare with Honda CRV.
