Which car to choose from?

john2986 — Tue, 07 Aug 2012 23:17:32 +0800

Hey guys,
Please help me out here....

I know, these two cars r from entire different segment; one from D other from C.

Please vote AFTER u've read my situation.

I have around 80k, partly from my saving, some from my parent's sponsorship. If I buy the Optima, I'll hav to take another 60k loan, but if am to buy forte 2.0, I can manage to pay full price in cash. I don't have any commitment, no family to feed, single.

Of course, Optima is my dream car, but am not sure m I suppose to take loan at this stage?

Well, my salary is still 4 figures (not high, not low) , like I said, m a newbie just enterin the society.
As of now, I don't hav a vehicle yet.

Any comments will b appreciated

Thanks

P.S. for those who voted, can u please also add a note on the reason.

What car shall I buy

ok guys, I hope as much people as possible to help out my situation here...

I am a fresh grad, my monthly pay is around 4k per month, I dont hav any other loans or anyone else to feed apart from myself, no one is depending on me... and I need a car (which wont affect my work, cause for some people better car means better business = higher income.. This is not my case at all)... My parents are ready to giv me around 40-44k for a car... which car shall I get?
Was thinking of optima which costs around 143888... after giving the dp from my parents, left wit 100,000...

Do you think this is a good idea for me or not? (To me, I think this is a bit too much, unless my parents want to pay 70k instead of 44k )

The following are my other options:
1)Civic (but I dont want the latest design, looks quite hideous)
2)swift sport
3)perve

or I should look for some 2nd hand cars, in tat case, please advice wat car, wat model, wat yr wit approx price I should get..

Thx

Anyone who is in similar condition as me?

Hi guys,

I am new to the forum, am a Malaysian Citizen, a MBBS graduant from India, and a Bachelor of Science graduant from New Zealand.

So now am plannin to go back to malaysia and work, of course start from houseman...

May I know how much does houseman get paid in total, even after the government has raised the salary of the government servant?
And I heard the pay grade (UD 41 in this case) differs depending on the applicant's CV and different degrees, may I know am I getting paid as the same as other houseman or differently? If so, how?

Pls provide ur advices on wat I should do and/or share any info u have...

Any comments and/or advice are appreciated

Thank you
