I want, cannot find.. 😁😁

You never actually own a Chery QQ. 

 

You merely look after it for the next generation.

I think @RadXwould agree with me when I say... 

The second best car is the last one that gives you a ride.

And the best car is your last ride.

I found the answer liao. It is not even Camry or Altis, but the Sienta!   

If one is not serious to get it (especially when the design and built quality is soooooo unacceptable), why still visit BM and PI, and have 3 test drive?

 

 

You read my mind, and that's precisely why I choose to issue him a warning. I killed countless clowns / spammers / clones, but hardly have to give infraction points to user, as most of them know what to do after I stepped in. I am not an authoritarian, and welcome diversity in an open forum, but participant in discussions must learn to accept different views and belief, and name calling shall be the last straw.

Not to justify for my action, but take a look at these postings to see for yourself what nonsense has @Kia7200 been sprouting.

But hor, not all were bad posts, this one is quite entertaining...

 

Wow, didn't know he has posted so many unfriendly comments.  You must be quite bothered by him to be bothered to dig out so many of his posts. 😀😀

can justify,  if I could afford a new car one day, I will justify like hell too, because I would end up having one of the cheapo-est new car, of course I have to justify, or else I will feel embarrassing . I will have no confidence driving my new car out of the door.😃

But I won't go around slamming people who do not buy the same cheapo-est brand as mine. Peace!😀😀

Have been seeing a certain breed of folks here who buy their cars and justify and defend it till their death and flogging others who think otherwise!

I’ll say this, you like what you buy, Period! There is no need to justify your money of what you bought and lambast others for their choice (not Mazda or Kia) and justify it. It’s your money ffs!

the same individuals seem to rant and proselytize their brand as If they have a vested interest in it. Get a life!

be civil always and agree to disagree!

 

peace out and SS is better than Mazda

Agree.

Just keep the mouth shut and drive,thats all.

Car getting more & more expensive partly because of all these driver.

Since the car so good and popular,why must AD down the price?LOL.....

Eh, you talking about me ah? I bought the new Attrage last year during CB at $63999, with $3K servicing credit and extra half year road tax. That was the time when dealers were really desperate and best period to buy.

Many here also bashed the Attrage but so be it lor. At least have a car to bring my parents for medical checkup, etc.

Ya funny people. A car purchase and the choosing of the brand is a personal choice depending on many circumstances. 

Firstly, it is not that a car is as if one organ of a person to such a point where if someone disagrees or didn't buy what you driving OR have their own differ views, one organ will be taken out or what.

Secondly, it is not that those defenders fund the purchase of the cars for others. ️

In the end, the way this group of people defend shows alot about themselves. Some didn't continue the argument is not they chicken out, is just that there is no point lowering themselves to the level of those die heart and senseless defenders.

Good for you bro. You're happy means it's all good. 

I don't even place too much stock into this "own, don't loan" nonsense despite it having become unchallengeable dogma here. You don't own a car in Sillypoor. Not ever. You only buy the right to use it for a limited period. Then, if it's important enough to you, you can export it to a saner country, where you *would* own it if you had a place to keep it. The only part of the "full cash" message I fully endorse is the financial prudence, don't get in over your head mentality. But "full cash" doesn't give one the right to lord it over others, and the opposite situation shouldn't be a cause for derision.

Neither does the perceived status of the cars matter a whole lot to me, I only value what I enjoy driving and the price point only matters in terms of affordability to me, so I can start enjoying the experience lol. 

And while I'm at it, real men don't necessarily drive 3 pedals. Real men don't care what others think about their choices, including what they choose to drive (or even if they choose not to). 😁

I like people to buy expensive cars and not cheap cars. Expensive cars mean they pay more taxes to gahmen, ADs make more profits and again pay more corporate tax, salesmen more commission and pay more income tax. Hopefully gahmen wallet so thick they don't ask me to pay more GST and maybe even give me top up/rebates. 

So you know I won't recommend value for money cars to anyone!
