AudShopping

Kuruma

Just got back from a very rib-cracking dinner with Jammie, Leroy and Sei Shaun! wtf.

We laughed so much and so loudly until three groups of people moved tables to get away from us WTF.

Like this video wtf.

Aiya don’t think anyone will find this video very funny except us la.  Aih niche humor what to do wtf.  Laugh at it for five years already and it still never gets old wtf.

Think you need to really know Japanese culture T_T and maybe you need to get deadpan humor hahahaha T_T

Ok enough wtf.

I’ve been thinking of getting a car slash boo.

I’ve never had a car in my life.  And it’s no secret I fucking hate driving wtf.

I hate the stress of being behind the wheel when I could be asleep in the passenger seat wtf.

And my parents are paranoidly afraid that something will happen to me on the road so if I cannot get a ride from anyone else (friends, Wombeh, etc) they would rather drive me here and there and drop me off at doorsteps.

But how can like that I just don’t drive my entire life right!  It’s so dangerous these days but that doesn’t make me more susceptible to danger than my mother, or Jam or any other girl.

*visions of being driven around by 70 year old Fat Her

I must assert my independence! (and stop being a burden to others wtf)

So that’s why Imma invest in a car.

I know a lot of people I know are starting to save up for houses and shit but right now I need a car more than a house (since the Parents Ooi haven’t kicked me out of theirs yet wtf)

If I really wanted I could take one of my parents’ cars but that would leave my mother with no transport and I guess I would learn more responsibility with a car that was my own.

But all this is gonna take time of course.  I’m still struggling with good ol Mount Holyoke payments so it will definitely be after my next review (and hopefully pay increase) before I seriously think about taking on another loan 🙁

Not to mention all the gas and parking and car repairs that come along with it…

And so many ??????? !

What car make?

New or secondhand?

[btw just thought of this joke. What’s a used radio called? Secondhand Serenade WTF WTF HAHAHA. eh laugh la]

What color? Ok not going to pretend I already know it’s going to be pink.

I had some fun looking at cars online with Wombeh.  The cheaper the better.

And I am so convinced that I want to get an antique Beetle and spray it pink and do it up myself!!!

This one here costs something like RM13,000. (pic stolen from mudah.com.my)

If I do it up and install an auto transmission, put in an aircon wtf and power steering would that be more than a new Myvi or a 2nd hand Honda City?

It will be my pet project! I will be one of those cool people who can repair cars at a moment’s notice wtf.

But Wombeh and my parents are vehemently against it saying that I’ll spend shitloads of money later trying to maintain it and it’ll be impossible to find spare parts for it too 🙁

So then it goes back to…new or secondhand again? wtf

Anyway I still have a lot of time to think.  This is just the first stage of contemplation!

Any ideas?  Smaller cars preferable.  And the cheaper the better (max 50k?) And if you know anyone who wants to sell off their cars give me their emails! Kthxbai wtf.

(just realized there’s no AudCategory for cars. or gadgets. or anythning like this)

  • hahaha is that why you chucked it into the AudShopping category!

    good luck with car quest /beg

    hahaha ya good times laugh about angry thigh slapping “hiuh!” and people fainting into food wtf

  • ever wondered if your future car will eventually turn into a Transformer? like Bumblebee?

    since you like pink so much, will it turn into a Pigbee?

  • hahaha,… that video so insane.. seems like a funny tutorial.. hehe.. Aud, u can bought Audi car.. Hehehe..

  • Hey Audrey, nice meeting you that night at Modesto’s. (Hope you still remember me. LOL!)

    You’re so petite and cute, but sad that didn’t see you after that.

    Anyway, maybe you can start with 2ndhand car first? Cheaper and if you scratched the car it won’t be as hurt as if it’s a new car. LOL!

  • myvi is cheapest right! i like atos ^_^ easiest to drive.

  • i fucking hate driving too T_T

  • i strongly suggest NOT buying anything Volkswagon from 2000- 2001. MAJOR electrical issues!!

  • Suzuki Swift? It come in Pink i think! 😀

  • So you put it under Audshopping! So cute!

  • change to automatic transmission? JUST LEARN TO DRIVE MANUAL LAH!

  • Get a driver is always the best =)
    There is a car initial with “TT”

  • eh. suzuki swift v small. esp since you small also ma. makes sense to get small car. easier to drive rofl. but m’sia driving hectic leh

  • wanna bling it up? 😀

  • audi TT!

  • Use the money to buy food 🙂 don’t waste $ on depreciating stuffs especially at times like this. Lemme know if you need to inspect any used car. Me can help.

  • kia picanto facelift < 50k

  • Maybe you can buy a Kancil or Kelisa? If not mistaken those two are the cheapest rite..not sure though.

    hmm..if you have cash to spare then buy a nice car lor..but if you don’t then just buy any cheap cars..hehee..cos the value of cars go down. So might as well save the money to buy a house in the future I think. =)

  • maybe you can get a viva and spray it pink! since viva is small and suitable for a petite girl like you.

  • Not sure if you can install an auto box in a Beetle, if you did you’d have to change the engine too and the whole drive train.

    Not really worth it, better to get a car that’s auto to start with.

    Depends whats your budget really, if it’s 40-50k there’s not that many options:

    Myvi
    City
    Vios
    Swift

  • ahahah.. u know what.. except for the pink.. i guess i will buy whatever u buy later..

    coz my driving skill is very very bad too, my parents, bf and brother prefer to pick/put than i drive myself..
    i want small (but not too taufu) and CHEAP car too!! AHAHAHA.. faster decide and let us know..

    (actly i am thinking i10 now wtf)

  • I suggest a pink smartcar! hahahaa…

  • get a vios! a seconhand vios would be good too!

    because when u drive malaysian car, u will hav to take it a workshop more often than driving a japanese car. so in a long term, jap car would be more cost efficient! plus vios is sooo easy to drive, it’s like a toy. believe me in this cuz i super fuckin hate driving too T.T

    kei: but vios seems so big no meh!! ya i heard its better to get a japanese car in the long run too 😀

    cindy: isit cindy how u kno!!!

  • yeah, agree! jap car is worth buying.. in that range, vios is good to drive , comfy to sit in, there is resell value & its fuel saving!

    and ya.. don’t buy korean car (hyundai, kia etc)… fuel consumption is high and not as comfy…

  • I also searching for secondhand car!! After months of research, ppl recommend me Viva or kelisa, I think i’ll have Viva… secondhand price like 28-30K..

  • =.=”
    Korea car.. i10 Hyundai..
    small car like viva, cost around RM 40k++
    but lots of ppl said that Korea cars is not that good, bla bla bla.. but i still prefer i10 than viva coz
    1) at least that is an import car.. =.=
    2) almost same price
    3) Viva is way too “tauhu”, easy to kemek (I think la)
    ofcoz Vios or other Jap cars are nice, but no money, nice also no use la.. haiyo.. T.T

  • so far no problem with my viva lo cos service on time ma and just only 1 year.
    well, local car, anything happen oso parts cheaper…
    u can check

    🙂 happy reading…

  • Learn how to drive stick!

    Also, go for reliable second hand that has good resale value. So practical!

  • hahahahahahahaha the video so funny

  • My dad bought an old beetle few years back for a few hundred ringgit but then the inside is very cacat so we had to redo it and install air con and it cost about 21k. Maintanence is pretty high because it’s an old car and the engine is not very good also. It died on me once so I get worried everytime I drive it T.T

  • Get the newest Bettle model 😀

    *Its my dream car XD*

  • I just bought a Volkswagen beetle just like the one in the picture but different color and the condition is far worse. Like your thoughts, it’s my pet project. However, my budget is currently on another project so this pet project of mind have to put on hold (hence I didn’t blog about my car)

    Anyway, ORIGINAL Volkswagen Beetle car parts are still widely available and easily obtained. The only hiccup is $$ – it’s not cheap.

    If you want to restore the car back to it’s former glory, then be prepared to fork out 20K. But if you plan to pimp your ride with air cond, upgrade the engine or put other stylo-milo stuffs, you might want to buy a new car instead.

    Btw, there are unscrupulous mechanics out there who prey on pretty girls who want a cute car but know nuts about maintenance. So be careful with your decisions

    Good luck!

  • My wife’s Kelisa has been very good for the last five years or so.

    Otherwise a second-hand Japanese is a good option.

    Beetle would be cool, but a lot of work.

  • Myvi.

  • OOh I’ve an antique beetle! You wanna test drive before you decide again? hahaha

  • Get a Hyundai (inokom) i10. Very good small city car. Go and test drive one and you will know what i mean.
