Hi guys,
I have decided to purchase a first car in my life after driving goget carshare for almost entire my uni life. So please guide me through my car buying journey.
So far, my budget limit is $19,000, but I really don't want to spend over $18,000 unless I am missing huge value because of extra grand.
I was gonna buy a secondhand small hatchback, but recently have changed my mind to small SUV streams. Although, after few research, I find my budget may not adequate for those stream.
So far, I watched few youtube videos and read reviews and found myself wanting Mazda cx-3.
I've lurk thru carsales.com and found cheapest cx-3 is 20G.
Before I decide myself, other candidates were Honda HRV and Mitsubishi ASX.
Although, I already fixated on Mazda cx-3, I want ozbargainer's opinion on my decision.
Do you think I will successfully get one with my budget? or Should I change my mind? , Is there better car that suits me? etc..
I care about modern city look design (exterior, interior), fuel efficiency and little bit of practicality for Costco, IKEA, Woolly shopping.
I prefer Auto since my gf can't drive manual yet.
With all the information flood, I find myself little disoriented. So, please guide me!
Thanks,
John
A very good second hand golf can be had for that price.
