wow, nice calculations, next time ask u for more advice n calculations when planning to buy car lah!
You mean 84000/5 = RM16800/yearthere is no right decision lar... if u feel u can afford this investment... then by all means go ahead... but after considering the total cost u will incur... u feel that it will take over more important spendinds.... the consider a cheaper alternative.... here is a lil simulation for total cost of owning a imported car:
Say eg... u buy an 1999 S2000 at RM 140,000. u pay RM70k cash...
Car Loan : RM70k @ Int of 4% 5 years loan = RM84,000
Per Year = RM7000
Road Tax : RM460 per year x 5 years = RM 2300
Insurance coverage : RM2000 per year x 5 = RM 10000
Repair Maintenance : Rm5000 per year (min) = RM 25,000
Upgrades or Overhaul : RM5k per year = RM25,000
Total Cost over 5 years = RM146,300
Plus initial Cash Payment = RM70,000
RM216,300
Per Year cost : RM19,460.00
There u go... this is roughly an estimate if u should buy a sportscar... such as S2000, Evo, Subaru, Skyline, Silvia.... if u comfortable with spending this amount... then by all means go ahread man.... oh yeah... also take into account... that after 5 years liao... ur car value will be only less than half... that means... after 5 years... u only can sell the car off at RM80,000 or less... so consider all this lor....
Oops.... sorry... muahaha... calculated a lil to quick until didn't realise my mistake there... muahaahha.... that brings the total cost per year is RM24k ... damn man.... thats why i so broke now... sigh.. :(You mean 84000/5 = RM16800/year
Not 84000/12 = RM7000
remember also...maintanance for sports or rare cars does not come by easy ..remember uncle used to own a honda quintet or sumtin lidat bak in early 90's...complained maintanance around luxury jap car during that time cz parts either imported from japan or not available locally....so best is buy popular car model...but you lose alot in resale value later also..ahem2there is no right decision lar... if u feel u can afford this investment... then by all means go ahead... but after considering the total cost u will incur... u feel that it will take over more important spendinds.... the consider a cheaper alternative.... here is a lil simulation for total cost of owning a imported car:

Editted and corrected the figures
this one is wanna main keta but budget...hahaha...like me alsola..poor student no money play car...even rim steel 13 inch..ekekeI drive a first batch year 1995 satria 1.6L manual SOHC, EFI. The car's worth today? Consider it ZERO. It's a fun car and although I don't get turbo/vtec/supercharger kinda feel, I'm still happy with it's performance. I run my car on 14" stock rims with Falken ST115 (185/60/R14). The tyres cost me RM150 per piece. I added front 4-point tower bar, rear 3-point tower bar(in boot) and rear upper bar. This car came stock with thick (don't know how many mm diameter) front anti sway bar and not-so-thick rear anti-sway bar. I've changed my air filter to K&N open pod and my engine runs on Q8 5W40 fully synthetic (or at least I think it's fully synthetic) oil topped up with LubeGard's engine protectant ( International Lubricants, Inc. > Engine Products ). The rest of the car is totally stock standard. Quite a bit of saving, I'd say. hahahaha poor people drive cheap car. hehe
wats wrong given ppl a guideline of wat he/she earns,tat is up 2 dem, not U!!!!!.... he/she is jst asking 4 opinion on wat sud b d most ideal car wit a salary of more or less 4K..... will b different if he/she say they can afford 2 pay4K p/m.... :stupid: :stupid: :stupid:um...I thought one's salary is a rather private figure? What's the deal with people posting them on an internet forum?
Asking about the running cost of a car is fine, but no-one needs to know your income.
OMG LOOK AT ME!! I'm a young professional making meelions a year!! Everyone compare your lives to mine and go cry!
I can drive sport car with 4k salary anywhere if I can find the right sugamama.RM4k drive sport car, in KB can. But not in KL.
