  Yo, Nissan March Lovers! Now got comfort version, price 66k?
  
  I am a new driver, deciding between Nissan March and Hyundai Getz, the price do differ by almost 10k, but i heard alot about high fuel consumption on hyundai car.
  So can give advice on which car should i choose! BAsically looking for a reliable and little maintenance car.
  
  Pls help! Thanx thna

  Hi ace_tan,
  
  I quite crazy abt nissan march ( esp in orange color ), small compact esp suitable for a lady to drive on. But considering the COE, nissan march is 1400 cc and you r paying the same COE as compared to greater power car. Maybe you should consider 1600cc or 1500car like Toyota Vios. More worth it.

  The general response abt march pple get is 'Not worth it' because of 1.4 l and higher price.
  
  I think the comfort version does not have the keyless entry, 6 airbags, spoilers, side skirts, fog lights. Are there anything else that the comfort version doesn't have ?
  
  the higher end model is 5 k more expensive but don't really need to have 6 airbags
  
  wonder if they have a 'middle version' . ie having the keyless, side skirts, spoilers but with the normal 2 airbags and thus cheaper

  check out saturday's newspaper, there are parallel importers offering in between models. i saw one 1.3L (!) version new. i also saw 1 dealer selling 1.2L version (orange) second hand. think look around maybe can find.
  
  i say the 5K is very worth it. space it by instalment for 10 years its only $43 difference every month. just go a few movies lesser.

  GeTz wld be better if u r looking for a more budget car... difference of 10k is a lot..... Getz is nt bad too... small compact, nice looking.... most imptly, cheap.
  
  If u wanna get a march, i suggest a get a Vios.
  It uses the famous VVTI engine, definitely a good saver in fuel....
