iwillsurvive SG hmm , i was just wondering, if compared to a BMW or MERC and maybe a Nissan cefiro how is the fuel efficiency compared to these cars? issit very expensive to maintain? i sit before the car and the feeling and power of the car is damn shiok so i might consider buying it in the future
nOrmalbOi SG in the future? can i hazard a guess that ur too young to get a driving license yet currently?
gasband SG Your fren earn 2K dare to buy WRX ah!!! I dare to say with what I earn, i can easily BUY a WRX! But when i factor in other costs like road tax, insurance, petrol and maintenance.... I will become a bankrupt very soon
HeXy SG Yea the integra is cheaper, as its has a smaller engine, better FC, lower road tax, and the price of the car is cheaper than a rex too..
ditzy SG And if you're young, the insurance premium is a killer already, worst if you choose to colour your car black.
freakass SG Why are you comparing a WRX to BMW and Merc? I dont see the connection anywhere at all! Not even the price! Just a word of advice... If you have enough money to buy a BMW or Merc, please dont ever ever think of getting a WRX because a BMW or Merc is able to give you enough power on Singapore roads plus you get a luxury interior with cool gadgets! Please dont torture yourself with a car that has nothing else other than raw noisy power...
freakass SG For your information, even the lowest range of the BMW 3 series is more expensive than the WRX Sti… This explains why you see so many WRXs on the road…. simply because it’s cheap power… but the petrol consumption will kill you eventually…
drumstick SG Wrx again... 2.5 WRX imprezza around 78k now. But the mantainance is going to be a torture. Just do some maths and you will know how much is needed a mth Road tax: 2k / yr = $170 / mth Insurance: $5800 ( for less then 27 first party ) = $490 / mth Carpark: 95 ( MSCP ) Petrol: $500 ( moderate user, Heavy footer can go to 800 ) Mantainance: 350 / mth ( 1 yr maybe go for 4 - 6 servicing ) Cashcard/coupon: 150 - 300 Wash car + grooming: 100 / mth Total: $1900 This price is excluding installments. Which means it can go about $3k/mth depending on ur installment. Think deep into your pocket before deciding which car to buy. If normal 1.6 jap car, is around $1.6k / mth including installments.
tailslide SG yeah, but the integra (GSR) does not have 1) AWD 2) Turbo 3) 4 doors 4) 4 pot brakes and since when is the integra cheaper than the rex?
tomsss SG big sidetrack: what if buy WRX.... ... then go and install CNG kit? performance GREEN car pardon my stupid idea... you all may continue your discussion
mitgalant SG i think both car just serve different type of drivers. some like luxury, some like street cars. so dont think its really fair to say things lidat. cheers
