[Rubberstamp]

Mazda RX8

I sup

[Rubberstamp]

Mazda RX8

I suppose still in the category?

Less than 1500cc

also 4 doors

[Ferraricalifornia]

yup....

 

do give the Koreans a chance too.....

 

they give you slightly more value for your money....

[Blackyv]

personally .... given the TS budget

 

 

Forte 1.6 EX (A) $64,999

 

My choice.

 

for 30++ k COE.... the car is only 65k. how cheap can this get.

 

plus it looks nice.

 

quite true.. avante's omv also around the same but selling ~80k...

 

with recent price hike, this is the best-bang-for-the-buck....

[Ferraricalifornia]

i seriously wonder what the heck is Komoco doing and thinking.....

[Joseph22]

I lazy to count petrol saving.Lets just look at servicing,4k saving can go say each servicing cost 400?They can go 10 servicing.Base on normal driving interval of 10k servicing,1 yr go 2 servicing.they can go for 5yrs servicing with AD to enjoy the warranty coverage. Else convert to petrol saving, I believe can pay for a months to a yr for some.

 

 

Lazy to count or you scare count wrongly??

 

4K for 5 star ncap. worth more than any saving you have.

[Ferraricalifornia]

there are better cars out there sans the Euro NCAP 5 star rating ok.....

there are better cars out there sans the Euro NCAP 5 star rating ok.....

 

 

with the same price and size and cc and sporty looks??

[Ferraricalifornia]

Lancer Sporty???

 

come on....not the 1.5L....and neither the looks.....

 

the straight competitors with the Lancer EX is the Toyota Allion/ Premio and Nissan Sylphy....

 

 

[Ferraricalifornia]

but really,

 

the Lancer EX does impress because of the large exterior size and small engine cc.....

 

in fact,

 

the Chevy Cruze 1.6 does come close to the EX in this aspect.....

But if he wants to sell after a few yrs, resale value might not be gd, esp if a new Forte model comes along next yr.

1.5L sports version leh.

 

 

let me refer you then to the Chevy Cruze 1.6 SS edition???

[Ferraricalifornia]

if i were looking for luxury,

 

it's the Nissan Sylphy 1.5L....

 

looking for family space, it's the Toyota Allion/ Premio....

 

EVO 10 wannabe, Proton Waja or Mitsubishi Lancer EX 1.5L....

dont drift.

 

i am asking what car with 5 star ncap have the same feature and price as Lancer EX

[Ferraricalifornia]

actually Cruze and Forte are also worthy rivals lah....

 

should seriously consider them....

 

although if you want performance,

 

you gotta give up the 1.5L/ 1.6L engine cc and go for 1.8L and 2.0L respectively.....

[Ferraricalifornia]

i'm sure Allion has 5 stars too....

 

just that they don't have that model to test it for crashtest..... :angry:

 

don't limit yourself to the cars Euro NCAP test ok???

bull Sh1t. no data mean no star as simple as that.

 

Like saying, my knowledge as good as a PHD holder but i got no PHD cert but dont limit yourself to a PHD cert okay.

 

Plus Allion is 92K while Lance EX is 76K. fail in price criteria liao.
