depends on the condition of the car when u purchase it.... most pple just purchase the car without looking at the most important parts, the engine, the brakes and the structure..... for 7-8 yrs u really have to try ur luck.... try to get those with very low milage ones.... really have to depends on how u control the car...Originally posted by speedygonzales:suggestions on wat model to buy?
7-8 yrs cars need to spend alot on maintenance? have been hearing so much abt having to splurge when the car breaks down until i scared... but then again, new car scratch or kena knocked will be damn sim tia... so guess its a trade off....
I always tell people around me... If you can afford it, get a continental car... Safety and comfort are the marques of conti cars...Originally posted by speedygonzales:n now its a choice between conti and jap car... saw ford focus and read some views from owners... seemed quite good... haf sat in one before and found it quite stable... wat r ur views?

hi johncopper... haf been looking at new cars so far... not too sure abt G9... got pic to show?Originally posted by johncooper:Speedy ... i would advise you to seriously go look at the second hand corolla G9 model ... the biggy one ... it is great ...
dun have a picture to show but it is one model before the Altius and it is made in Japan .... the biggy one with the big round head lamps, and there is Manual if you are open to that option .... BM dun carry that shipment anymore ... they only do the Altius nowOriginally posted by speedygonzales:hi johncopper... haf been looking at new cars so far... not too sure abt G9... got pic to show?
just went for the test drive for M2 and altis... find altis is a better ride...
was advised by some contacts that the G9 models is on timing belt and wear and tear will ensure i spend alot of $ on maintenance and changing of the timing belt.. any owners driving their G9 for more than 3 years here?any probs with ur G9?Originally posted by Ghee:that corolla is JDM G9....which many owners nickname....Hipporolla becoz is abit buldging all the way..... so far the feedback has been good, and the owner swear by it that it is much better finish than Altis... but compare the price...G9 cost much more... than Altis now... hee hee hee[/i]
G9 have no problems with my dad ... he has the car before it was lunched by BM at december 2001 ... the car gives no problem at all ... it is still powerful no f/c problem ...Originally posted by speedygonzales:was advised by some contacts that the G9 models is on timing belt and wear and tear will ensure i spend alot of $ on maintenance and changing of the timing belt.. any owners driving their G9 for more than 3 years here?any probs with ur G9?
