My first car??

[g4i8y0t]

If that's your choice, better go for used neo coz there's big difference in price between new and used neo. Happy modding!

 

[Supra_Fanatics]

New car = problem free for few years. Used car, depends
on luck on what problems you will face later on.

Is all up to what we can afford and are we ready to take the
risk if we go for 2nd hand car? Any cash to standby if car got
any problems?

New car, no problem few years but definitely no major mods
until your car's warranty end.

If it is for daily drive, best get a new ride. Used car, best to keep it as weekend car/project car

Just my opinion

thanks guys!
the reason why i choose used neo after looking to this point:

1. price below 40k and most important, still can get loan even can get full loan!
2. hatchback.
3. performance parts available.
4. after watch the SNF & MSS in sepang last weekend, i think neo also not bad in term of outlook n performance!hehe!

or u guys have any idea what car can suit all those points here!im still thinking about the quality of proton materials...

 

[DanzEterna]

a used sgti u could consider.......or maybe sr3...
overall neo is a good car...just saw 1 just now with R3 bodykit....yummy....

 

[apaitubulan]

sgti ori can find meh?can u recommend me one?hehe!
yeah,neo is a good platform to start modding and affordable for person with not so big income!hehe!

Bro,

I am not sure whether they still have stock for Neo Lite version. Get them new if possible as the chassis have not been flexed much yet. UR bars are the best option for new cars. Heard Pro-Foam can be good too.

 

[DanzEterna]

there are lotsa sgti on sale in mudah...
but do check properly cos last time i bought my sgti, it was an accident car...
only noticed after i bought it...but too late edi....used for 2 yrs & sold it......
enjoyed every second of it....

[mines998]

Satria Neo or Suzuki Swift 1.6 might suit you and it is a potential car.

 

[Supra_Fanatics]

nice condition!bur im wondering, the owner already change the exhaust isnt it?because stock exhaust for sgti is double piping...hmmmm...

 

[Supra_Fanatics]

True...didn't see the rear. Could be modified or is not really an ori GTi as stated by the owner...some owners convert Normal Satria to SGTi...

Hard for me to tell, need owners of satria GTi to verify this. :hmmmm:
But really look like in a very good condition. Clean too.

Got hidung means like how one? Any of the photo above is non ori ma?
I think is hard to find brand new and stock SGTi...even 2nd hand one mostly modded one...

I think the third photo SGTi worth buying...interior really nice also hehe!

 

[DanzEterna]

SF,
like this, if got hidung means its fake bumper, PU or fiber.
might had an accident before.

I don't get wat u mean bro...only the 3rd photo the
seat is red and black while the 1st and 2nd photo is
Stock Seat Colour grey and black if Im not wrong.

While the 4th photo posted by DanzEterna is fully Black.
Seats change adi...

 

[DanzEterna]

SF,
no no ...if converted ones they will state in mudah.
wat i mean that its original gti car, but the bumpers are not.....maybe they could met with an accident, instead of claiming from insurance for new original bumper, they rather not claim & buy those PU, fibre ones from bodykit shop....some ppl wont know the difference......

make sure the seats, pedal, gearknob are all original, cos some of them kena stolen & replace with those from brothers....or any accs shop......unless they change wid ori momo then diff story la.
