CH_CO 6th Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 The 2nd hand Stepwagon is actually quite cost efficient if you aren't looking at the age. You have a good 5~6 years of good space and around 15k for COE and body. At 50k plus for a 2006 or 2007 ok lah. Anyway your choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 if you don't mind the image.... there's a reason why this car ain't popular.... haha.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonz 4th Gear August 30, 2010 Author Share August 30, 2010 Mind sharing the calculation for this? Period of loan is 5 years? Interest rates? I estimated that I'll get 35K back so here goes... $110K - $35k = $75K $75K x 1.99% x 7 years = $1017.25 Apologies... I think I over calculated... Anyway I also wouldn't be able to afford anything more than $600 / month... Don't make sense to pay this kind of price unless I can afford it... My monthly is only $417...

Watwheels Supersonic August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 the Japanese are very good at maximizing all the available space.... if not how they survive in Tokyo??? If I have a big family but on a budget I will go for this car and I'm willing to look pass the cutesy styling for practicality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonz 4th Gear August 30, 2010 Author Share August 30, 2010 i think TS pays full cash to his best for every car he buys.... My car started out as an OPC which I got for $42.5K... Then later on I converted due to my work so I dumped another $16K into it... I took a $30K at 2.38% so monthly is $417... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 whoa.... you bought your RS at a good price man.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 when you have the Fit, it's really hard to find an alternative replacement for the car.... it's hard to part with it's clever packaging, small exterior with bigger than expected interior space.... i'm sure you'd be able to fit your daughter in the boot nia.... haha....

Typhoonz 4th Gear August 30, 2010 Author Share August 30, 2010 Dun worry. Non taken cos I dun like the looks either. But I have a friend who drives one. Watching him ferrying 3 children+ 1 grandparent together with his wife with all the pram and barang barang(very much like your family&helper). I find it an amazing little car. Wah his car sounds heavy... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My monthly is only $417... Ok thanks! I was also doing my calculation so I thought it looked high. I paid off my current Civics in 5 years so thinking hard if I have to commit again. Rather enjoy the debt free feeling now and trying to hold off the temptation as long as possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonz 4th Gear August 30, 2010 Author Share August 30, 2010 the Stepwagon looks too bulky to drive around already.... more like a van than wagon.... One has to look past the shape which is pretty hard to begin with... But this is more or less than standard shape for MPVs less the Ody... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly due to the fact that I would need to take a 7 years loan for my next purchase... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watwheels Supersonic August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 (edited) Wah his car sounds heavy... Not at all cos during my wedding his car carrying one photographer(front), 3 bridesmaid(2nd row), 1 bridesmaid(6th seat) and one adult suckling pig(7th seat tucked away). And he can still keep in pace with other cars. Now that's heavy. The rest of us just watch in amazement. Edited August 30, 2010 by Watwheels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 precisely.... the Avanza would do really well here.... it has 1.3Manual or 1.5Auto.... much better than the Wish i guess.... and Sienta, needless to say.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonz 4th Gear August 30, 2010 Author Share August 30, 2010 whoa.... you bought your RS at a good price man.... I got it through a no nonsense person but he left the company already... Actually it was a rush purchase that turned out fine... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
