[QUOTE="coriolis, post: 3700897, member: 63679"] I drive a 98/00 6MT. 1) 11 months + (1 year by end of July) 2) Bought at 105k, current 140k 3) Nothing major. Actually, nothing that warrants attention other than routine maintenance + standard wear&tear. I drive from JB-KL-JB regularly (almost every other weekend) at 140++ and it has never died on me. The engine is robust and electronics are not a problem (unlike its rival, heheh). Just need to take care of the throttle body + MAF sensor, either DIY or during oil change. Usually I spend less than RM300 per oil change + service. 4) Plenty of things here: 4a. It is 210bhp from 2.0 NA for a RWD, in sedan form. Really bang for the buck.Try looking for another car that offers this package. 4b. The design still doesn't look old after so many years. 4c. Build quality is damn good. If the car is reasonably well cared for, it will not feel/sound as old as a 5 year old local car. 4d. Currently it cost less than a vios/city/latio in the market. It's not new, but refer to point 4c and you do the math. :biggrin: 4e. Parts.. so far I have no problem la. WingHin or any of the workshops that specialize in Altezza can source for them. 4f. Why not the cars below? BMW 3 series - Meh. They're good cars, but there are plenty on the road already and electronics ARE a problem. My colleague just got his e90 and I think he is driving the courtesy car more than his own. Merc C class - Looks a bit too uncle for me. Also too many on the road. Audi A4 - The designs up to B7 aren't interesting at all. *If i must choose a conti car it will be the Alfa Romeo ;-) [/QUOTE]
