Trdsilverknight Neutral Newbie January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 (edited) In these times of high COE prices, i think that the best car model to buy will be the Subaru WRX - Sedan or Hatchback version (Used). Best will be those less than 5 years coe left. Simply because based on 3 encounters with these KINGS of the ROADS within past 2 days. 1) Driving out from minor road to main road, No need give way. 2) chiong recklessly at traffic lights 3) Road Rage - One of them not happy that i not willing to give way to him, wanted to get out of the car to road rage, until his gf stopped him. 4) they give the "not happy come bang my car lar" attitude - maybe because they can't wait to turn them into scrap metal. These pple driving such cars think they are kings of the road, even better than TP and best part is they are all driven by young punksters who will even stared back at you as if they are in the right instead. Wonder why the insurance for such cards are high? NOW we got the answers And who says that the insurance for such cars are Extremely High? i doubt so because these people in the early 20s still can afford and also heck care if they get into accidents at all I have nothing againts drivers of Japanese performance cars, so far i have encounters Evos, Type R, but all still ok. really nothing like drivers of Rexs. Also i think its time to invest in a in-car camera to capture the "stunts" of these kings of the roads.

Maybe can ask Spawn how he drive his car... yes, we have to make some stereotyping, which is not wrong at all. if we are not allowed to sterotype people, then we will not be allowed to say things like "french are romantics, women are poor drivers, indian food are unhealthy..etc.. For example, my father drives a camry and he is an extremely cautious driver my younger brother drives a swift sports and he is reckless! speeding and cutting lanes as and when he likes.

Cmcrazy Clutched January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 (edited) Yes agreed WRX is the worse kind of all on the roads. But why? the reason is if you done enough research, the car is generally cheaper than the rest of the community, EVO, type r, etc. In fact, a used WRX (please leave STI out of the picture) is only just slightly more expansive than a used altis (must compare same year make, 2007 vs 2007). So majority of the younger generation can well afford it. But if you look at the insurance normally $3000-$7000 depending on age, and the petrol consumption, it makes the ride very very expensive, much more than an altis. Sorry to sterotype, most youngsters mentality is spend now worry later so they buy first, then end of year or 2 yrs down the road cannot tahan the insurance then SELL. Take a look at the resale WRX market... tons of them selling. Cheers Edited January 23, 2013 by Cmcrazy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiadaw 6th Gear January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 Profiling happen for reasons, some are justified, some not. Is it fair if you see an Obese person, you will think he cannot run. Of course this doesn't apply for all, but in general, you cannot say there is no impact, as weight hinder speed. But most are not clear cut, & we made our profiling base on media, our own experience, or our own thinking. If you ask me to meet a supermodel, I would expect to meet someone tall & slim, its only natural. back to car, if you see a lot of certain car make driving recklessly, you will imprinbt the impression that a certian car make attract this kind of people. Its only natural. But of course, this could be very well because, alot of people driving this car model, & statistically the people who drive recklessly are higher.

TVT Supercharged January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 i would like to add Honda stream to your list Are you sure? Honda Stream drivers are mainly family man or woman....and behind ferrying children, so they are usually not reckless , IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amgm125 2nd Gear January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 Once again, I must stress its the driver not the car. I've experiened road rage, lane cuttings, tail gating etc and it can be ANY car, not only wrx or any other tiong chia. In fact, during jams, esp woodlands first link, its always the modded wrx/evo/type R that leaves space for me to filter in while drivers of the non-tiong chia cat increases speed to close up the gap. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
