Ranting.... Malaysians are Really Lucky People.....

[mona-vie]

Sorry for ranting here but I am just EXTREMELY pissed......

This is because my dreams of a Satria R3 is gone (thought of important into SG) and I don't even know how long I will be able to keep my Satria Neo.

Cause the COE for a 1.6L car in Singapore now cost $56K some idiot in my country decides to cut down car population growth by reducing the COE quota again.... This means prices will not come down for a long long time already.....

And in ~5yrs time, I may be forced to scrap my Neo because I don't think I can afford over $50K to renew the COE for another 10yrs.

Seriously, I am EXTREMELY pissed and really envious and jealous of your people in MY!!

Cars are cheap and can keep forever!! So good...... :(

Really thinking of migrating to MY instead of staying in this crappy tiny island........

Trust me. Its much much better compared to Singapore. Cars cheaper, no stupid 10yrs limit, much cheaper road tax and insurance and petrol!! I love JB petrol!!!

Got NSHW, got Sepang, Pasir Gudang.......

Best of all can mod!! Can change engine!! Its really a heaven for cars!

OK, maybe the only complain I can think of is tolls for NSHW. But then its still better than the money sucker ERP in SG!!

 

[satria_neo]

For me, I too prefer MY than SG. My complain is more of inconvenience of a big country. Even with NSHW, it still takes hours from SG to reach KL.Of course, driving on NSHW is awesome but it still gets pretty tiring after 1-2hrs.

 

[VDread]

You'd be surprised at the number of toll booths existing within and around KL itself (and how much toll drains the pockets of its inhabitants).

u should be lucky staying in SG.....y wanna own a car there when the public transportation are so efficient there? even my sis used to own a honda civic FD but sold it off after 6 mths because she said there is no purpose owning a car there...

 

[^pomen_GTR^]

well...i happens i live and work in singapore what would i do is use bike there...and keep a "not road legal" car to whack during weekend in pasir gudang or sepang.....

i think gymkhana/car park rally also quite happening in singapore rite???...


that is the sensible choice la....
..............................................................

and the thing in singapore...buying car/bike is cheap...getting it registered was headache....

the different in MY was...even buying car also expensive.....but can own it forever without much headache....

I'll take it as a compliment to all of malaysian

 

[arturo]

Mona-vie....i think u can buy a malaysian registered car n keep here as your play car...best of both worlds.

 

[V-Spec]

mona-vie, car price in Malaysia was cheap. But that was even before you were born (I'm assuming you're pretty young?!?). Since then it has never been cheap at all.

Things would be different if you are working in MY, earn in MYR and buy cars in MY using MYR.

If you are earning in SGD, of course everything in MY are cheap. :rolleyes:

[TitanRev]

I don't live in KL but every time I go up and the amount of toll I pay if I go here and there....really can drain one's blood out within a few days....

SG has very good public transport which is I love very much...

 

[ckteck9898]

Agreed with Greenmivec... Im stil using bike to work, use car when with family... coz im earning MY, hav to reduce cost of living.... Really cannot bear the high cost living in KL...

Cheap petrol?! Try earning in MYR & spending in MYR then only you would understand... Lousy Ron95... Anyways, there's always pros & cons when you compare your own country with others... No offence, SG in a "FINE" city whilst in MY, the "penguins", always willing to help you settle your problem. If you get what I mean....

 

[zane_al]

Agree with u monavie, SG is crap.

Get a moutain bike instead? better choice.
