What Car To Get

[Ukskakashi]

Planning to get a 2nd hand car, this will be my frist time owning a car, budget ard $40k to $60k and looking for one that has good fuel consumption overall and has the power when needed, any suggestion guys, was thinking of Honda Civic 1.8 auto or subaru WRX 2.0 auto. PS:im looking to get an auto car.

Good FC and power normally do not go hand-in-hand ;)

 

If you are looking at the WRX, have to factor in very high insurance premiums.

[Observer]

[Jawbreakers]

Celica GT4!

 

if u dun mind the insurrance

[Jeronlee]

my advice for a first-time car owner is to look beyond car price and FC.

 

depending on the age and paper value of the car, a $50K car could depreciate a lot more than another car in the same price range.

 

as for FC, it wouldn't be a huge factor unless you are someone that travel extensively. depending on your car choice, the annual insurance premium and road tax could cost you a lot more than that extra 100km you get from every tank of petrol.

Young man,

 

For a first time (young) owner, be aware that the WRX insurance will be very high. Best to find out more details about insurance rates first as it seems that you do have budget constraints. It's your money, we have no right to tell you what's wrong or right. I understand the wish to own a nice, fast, flashy (and preferably loud) car. We all do, otherwise we won't even be in this forum.

with your budget, can consider this car. sure get alot of attention and respect on the rd.
