Im currently driving an Civic'95 4door.
Old alr here rosak, there need repair. Beh tahan liao.
My current sight is on the Honda Accord '03 pattern la, can get for 6+k

So my budget is for below 70k.
-Family car, so no coupes. i like classy looks yet sporty driving.
-maintainence wise, of course hassle free preferred.
-1600cc to 2000cc the max. need to carry many people, need some power.
-Not for tuning, i need stock power.

Please give me more opinions. other options is welcomed for considerations.
Sifus Sifus all ur opinions are truly appreciated

IMO, this car is not bad. It's worth it. It's also fits your requirements. However, I do feel 2L Accord is not powerful enough considering its weight.Have a look at the A33 as well. Its not bad as well.

go buy a used honda civic selling about 75k to 85k for year 2006 & 2007, more never and less maintainance if u could source a lower mileage one.

add RM15k get a brand new Proton Lanspira 2L, or RM74k a used Proton Lanspira still with factory warranty
Proton Inspira (A) 2.0 PREMIUM - Cars for sale Selangor - Mudah.my

you mention old already rosak rosak.. that accord is going to be 10 years old next year. its going to be rosak rosak too. just get a new car (or still under warranty) and if you're a car dude don't have to worry about Proton's rubbish service. Or just send it to EON for service since they are Mitsubishi dealers as well. LOL

Pros for Lanspira
1. 4B11 engine inside, 4B11T's little brother, the engine is bulletproof.
2. JATCO CVT gearbox inside, the paddle shifters do actually work
3. condenser, radiator, radiator fan, radiator cap, alternator all Made in Japan
4. auto rain sensor, auto light sensor, auto air con, cruise control, bluetooth, etc.
5. *only* two air bags, abs, ebd
6. world class safety rating
7. comfort and handling is on par with other Japanese marques.

Cons
1. Proton
2. Brand lor, its not a Toyota and Honda, ignorant people will say why you downgrade from Civic. LOL. I know I would buy a Proton Evolusi X if Proton badge engineer the Mitsubishi Evo, why give a shit what other people say.

My wild guess is that u are looking at this accord 2003 2.0
Honda Accord 2.0 (A) i vtec - Cars for sale Johore - Mudah.my

Why not spend a bit more and go for 2.4... much better
Honda Accord 2.4 (A) Modulo 05 - One Year Warranty - Cars for sale Johore - Mudah.my

Or dont limit your self n go for this Accord 2.4 2008 :biggrin:

Another BMW F10 520d Optimum Opti-Coated
Got another call from a concerned BMW owner about protecting his brand new ride (not as brand new as this one: ProDetailing: BMW F10 520d Optimum Opti-Coated) but still with less than 1000km on the clock. The owner wanted us to coat his ride as soon as possible to protect the original factory paint with Optimum Opti-Coat which is harder and more scratch...
