Kelpie 2nd Gear November 23, 2003 Share November 23, 2003 Hi there, 1. If given a choice would you go for a brand new Carens or a 2 years old Honda stream? Assuming both have about the same value. 2. I guess, Carens is probably the cheapest 7 seater MPV around. Of course, there is also a 1.3L 7 seater MPV from Daihatsu that is around 70k, brand new. 3. Anyone currently driving a Caren? any objective comments? Thank you. Regards. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vtim 3rd Gear November 24, 2003 Share November 24, 2003 here's my opinion: 1. If given a choice would you go for a brand new Carens or a 2 years old Honda stream? Assuming both have about the same value. I'll go for the Honda Stream, the Carens is underpower as compare to the stream 2. I guess, Carens is probably the cheapest 7 seater MPV around. Of course, there is also a 1.3L 7 seater MPV from Daihatsu that is around 70k, brand new. I'll go for the Carens as compare to the Daihatsu as the Daihatsu is just a Van with 7 seats, also the 1.3L is too underpower 3. Anyone currently driving a Caren? any objective comments? Sorry I don't own one, so can't comment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Neutral Newbie December 28, 2003 Share December 28, 2003 hi, have tested drive the carens.... it's underpower, loud noise, the plastic feel and rough interior detail, and a very very squeezy 3rd row.... Other then that, the sony player, sleek outlook (get the black color), and of course the below 80K price tag should able to hook one daddy with few kids...

Modeldriver Neutral Newbie December 28, 2003 Share December 28, 2003 myskyline already helping me think but from experience with the Stream, realise the things that make the real difference were the piggy back and the AEM V2. The rest were mostly marginal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S2P2 Neutral Newbie December 28, 2003 Share December 28, 2003 mai toos liao........ your piggyback can use back on the grandis? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modeldriver Neutral Newbie December 28, 2003 Share December 28, 2003 dunno... the piggy back for sure cannot go into GDI, but may have better chance with MIVEC engine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitman Neutral Newbie December 28, 2003 Share December 28, 2003 Stream .. I think the answer is very obvious. The Caren has a lot of nagging questions associated to it including very bad fuel consumption at around 8 km/l. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
