Bismarck Turbocharged October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 Go for Mazda 3. I am driving one. But if your wife is not a driver and she doesn't like the engine noise then forget it, just go for altis. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LemuelWong 1st Gear October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 Altis is spacious. Can consider K3 if your wife is willing to try. haha. if you're worried about PI, can try Honda Mobilio (alternative of Shuttle) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashbang Turbocharged October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 My current ride is Nissan Latio..... spacious, but she no like cause she always comprain sit behind with kid aircon not strong...... Time to bring her to see K3. Once she see the rear aircon vents she will change her mind from sushi to kimchi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Supersonic October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 Air-con not powderful? Think only choice is buy altis liao. Altis is well known for powderful air-con. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLZT 6th Gear October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 (edited) Generally my experience is Japanese cars aircon usually more powerful than conti and korean ones. Maybe cause most of the aircon brands come from Japan? Just a thoughtless deduction though. Edited October 20, 2015 by GLZT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
X5actor 4th Gear October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 Let's not confuse you. Your listed choices are quite sound; safe. I don't see any serious issue with any of them. Some considerations will be firstly and most importantly Budget. Second is which entity (AD/PI) you prefer to buy from. Others will include your lifestyle such as family size, main use of the vehicle, etc. If family mobility is your main consideration, then focus on getting one which can carry all members. Which in your list of choices has a six-seater or more? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny Hypersonic October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 (edited) My humble personal choice from your list For fc....safe option...Toyota For looks ..maz 3 Honda looks is subjective...but maybe most spacious from the list (edit....think boot most spacious Edited October 20, 2015 by Sunny 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air-con not powderful? Think only choice is buy altis liao. Altis is well known for powderful air-con. Use to drive an old replacement Altis... ya the aircon is powderful... Let's not confuse you. Your listed choices are quite sound; safe. I don't see any serious issue with any of them. Some considerations will be firstly and most importantly Budget.

Which in your list of choices has a six-seater or more? Would love to go for MPV... but budget constrain... so got to make do with the normal Mid size sedan.... Sylphy got rear aircon dey hmmm maybe can go take a look.... cause if go back Nissan, think got "loyalty" discount.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingenius Turbocharged October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 (edited) If want strong aircon, there is only one brand, Toyota. Toyota's aircon is so strong you can catch a cold (quote from magazine). I am sure Toyota owners will attest to it. Mazda car is good to drive but the interior ergonomics is not good, i.e. not comfortable for occupant.

Kia K3 has rear air con and front air con seat. Seriously you should take a look. Equipment a lot better than Altis. Mazda 3 well equipped but the rear space is small. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
