jakky athula Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 (edited) hello I am having suzuki hustler and want to upgrade my car. I am thinking about few models and I have budget upto 8mn. here are my list of concerns toyota roomy toyota corolla 141 honda fit gp5 toyota aqua honda grace suzuki xbee my mindset is something like this I am afraid to buy older cars and I normally do not buy cars with millage over 70,000. This is because I dont want to waste time on garage. can you give me your thoughts / suggestions about these models or may be another model?

iRage Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 When I look at your choices, I fail to see what exactly you are expecting in terms of an "upgrade". Is it that you want a car with a larger engine capacity ? More space ? When buying a car in SL..do not trust milages at all. If you tell someone that you want a car with 70,000km or less there will magically be a whole host of cars with less than 70,000. If you think that a car ith more than 70,000km means that you are spending time in garages, that is because the car has not been taken care of. 100,000km, etc..is really nothing much for any car. In SL most of these cars end up in garages all the time is because they have been poorly taken care of (no preemptive maintenance, cheap parts used, barely changed oil on time, etc...type) AND they have done a LOT LOT more than what the odometer shows. So please do not judge cars by this whole 70,000km ideology you have. Out of the cars...the only car that excites me is the XBee. It is quite a fun little all rounder. However, having a Hustler, the look and feel of the car might not feel much different than what you already have. Roomy : More space....not very exciting to drive....no frills, no fuss A to B type of car. Aqua : Nimble little frame but the steering and suspension dynamics let it down (can be fixed with upgrades). no frills, no fuss A to B car. Interior feels cheap, higher trim levels make it a titsy bitsy teeny weeny little better. Corolla 141 : With the added weight the car is nice and stable (compared to a hustler) on highways and stuff. Not the most fuel efficient and at times the engine might feel sluggish. Gearbox is twitchy and searches for gears. Grace : Probably the nicest and most refined interioir finish of all the cars on your list. Fit : Second nicer car to drive. Between an Aqua and a Fit, the Fit is a much better car in terms of driving engagement, interior finish, etc...but compared to the Aqua it does feel a bit rolly polly with a bit of body roll (probably because of the taller body). So...if it was my money...I would get the XBee or the Fit...followed by everything else with not much excitement just because I wanted to get a car.

DannOwnes Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) The process of buying a new car is really quite tricky. But I think you can cope with it because now there are websites where you can find all the necessary information. Today you have to pay a lot of attention to fuel consumption. A large car with a powerful engine consumes more gasoline, especially if it has four-wheel drive. And also, consider that the car tax is calculated according to the capacity of its engine, so the more powerful the car is, the higher the tax. You can find more information about the best cars to buy at https://zumroad.com/automotive. I may have overlooked some essential things, so you should familiarize yourself with all the nuances of choosing a car.
