Kelpie 2nd Gear May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 Top Gear in their 03/07 issue mentioned that Mazda 3 MPS is an extremely fast car with Zero charm. Regards, how cum extremely fast car with 0 charm. If it is fast, it should have lotsa charm dun u think? 1. Ok, extract what Top gear said:"no doubt fast but lacks in delicacy and the interior is crappy. Vague and rubbery gearchange came in heavy criticism. The standard brake assist system hampered progressive braking. The steering lacks feel, the gearbox is poor and the engine sounds rough. Interior lack of quality, undermined yet further by that 10 years too late use of materials and finishes that besets so many Japanese cars." 2. Anyway, imho, a good car is not always about bhp and how fast it runs. Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icekitten Clutched May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 I don't understand why ppl say City is roomy?? I've been in one and I felt cramp. After placing my baby car seat and booster seat at the back seat, there was no more room to squeeze any person, adult or child, in the middle for City. For Lancer, a child or petite adult can still fit in. Plus the legroom at the back and front, no doubt Lancer is more roomy than City. These were my personal observations. Think it's quite a fair comparison with similar conditions and not just a biased opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickster 5th Gear May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 Both City and Vios are Tomyam The cheapest Jap car should be Lancer. Yap, the lancer should be the current lowest-priced made-in-japan model. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with you. Thats y i have always liken buying a car just like marrying a wife. No point comparing who has bigger boobs, longer legs, fairer skin etc etc...never end one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickster 5th Gear May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 (edited) Perhaps what some bros here meant by City being roomy is the booth space . Interior is totally small. Bad front/rear legroom & narrow width. However, it is a powerful car Edited May 8, 2007 by Rickster Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icekitten Clutched May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 Ic. Boot space I do believe that City might be roomy coz of it's high boot. But interior-wise I was really stumped at the "roomy" tag, based on my personal experience. Now I understand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time for people here to wake up their idea that Lancer/Sunny is the cheapest Jap car. Guys, it's Subaru R2 Lancer/Sunny is the cheapest Jap car...with Kar-Chng R2 (A) $42,888 with COE Lancer (A) $50,988 with COE Nissan Sunny 1.6 EX FL(A) $51,000 with COE Edited May 8, 2007 by Sgnick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macross1 Neutral Newbie May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 Isn't the cheapest car around a swift? 35k only? http://www.sgcarmart.com/new_cars/new_listing.php?PI=1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgnick 1st Gear May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 (edited) Wah seh, Swift only $35K, even cheaper than Perodua Kelisa manz! Buy buy buy!!! Bro Macross1, $35K is with COE or not? Take $35K add $14.6K COE = $49.6K. Still think Swift is cheap? Edited May 8, 2007 by Sgnick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picanto 3rd Gear May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 saw some PIs advertise SWIFT for less than 40k. logically speaking, this cannot be true as this price could be below cost. 100% got some terms+conditions attached. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozebite Neutral Newbie May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 The term and condition is that they have no COE included Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelpie 2nd Gear May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 PIs have hidden T&C, cannot trust advertisment 100%. COE not included lah, must take in-house high interest rate loan and etc. Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozebite Neutral Newbie May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 Ya lor. Also looking at the PI accord and they selling at jsut 70k. I think it is too low. If i not wrong it should eb selling at 75k to 80k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kc0378 Neutral Newbie May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 How about the Subaru Impreza, for less than 50k can get the manual version. Yeah subaru impreza 1.6i would be a good choice. Insurance premium for this car should be the lowest among the 1.6 cat. Car has a nice boxer sound plus awd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
