kua chia

ah beng dun have ah beng chia (car), how can, tiobor? so me have been looking for my ah beng chia for sometime oredi, since before me started this blog. recently coe dropped liao, best ah! can afford car oredi. heheh.

take the so-called world class public transport sibei pissed manz, everytime fare hike but no noticeable service improvement one. all i wan is to go from point A to point B with minimal waiting time but they gimme TV Mobile and GPS-controlled fare stages for wat??!! and i still dun see why you need bus conductors when you have un-ezlink cards. so duh...

but enuff about public transport liao. this entry is supposed to be abt the hopefully akan datang ah beng chia. heehee... anyway this moring went to test drive couple of my shortlist cars which include:

• mazda3
• chevrolet optra
• mitsubishi lancer sport (not testing today)
  

see, me is bengz not ah sia kia (rich man's son) so can only affort car in this price range la. other models considered but dropped include:

• honda civic - my kakis, got 2 driving liao, mai copy pple la...
• ford focus - as above but jus 1 kaki driving; his car very cute one, got alot of kiddie toys for his 2 lil' daughters and only plays barney cds.
• toyota altis - i looking for ah beng chia, not ah pek chia ok, hee...
• nissan sunny - as above
• hyundai and kia - arh... korean car? zun bor??!!

if your precious car happened to be one of the models/brands mentioned above hor... arh... too bad la! its jus not my kinda car la.

hee... sidetracked too much liaoz... paisay. as i was saying, we - me and my siblings - went to test drive. before that, me took my sis's nissan sunny for a spin around my neighborhood. ya i know its up there, but its not my car, so its ok. me long time neber drive liao, skill very rusty, manz, so must practise abit first la. else wait the agent see me anyhow drive he scared then kick me out of the showloom how? heng its sunday, not much traffic on the road.

we first went to chevy showloom. when i looked at the optra sedan i sian jit bua (turn off) liaoz. the exterior is ok, but the dashboard... oh gosh... so ah peh!!!! and the door lock is the very retro-looking-stubby-thingy-sticking-out-where-the-window-glass-meets-the-door kind. italian design? hello??

paisay ah, me is IT powderful but car idiot, so when come to car, look is important. performance... arh... s'pore road, simi performance?? ram abit niah niah dunno cheong pass how many traffic lights liaoz! haha!

then we spotted the optra5 hatchback. hmm its much nicer than optra, design wise. more fierce, my sis said. still got that stubby lock thingy but mai hiam so much la... we took the optra5 for a spin (the sedan tio dropped from my list liaoz). the agent wanted to demo the traction control so jio me to accelerate when turning a bend. wah like initial d like dat manz! only din drift niah niah. shioks manz! but hor, think the engine quite loud le...

next we went down to mazda showloom. one thing hor, me got preference for mazda3 la but its more ex- le. last time, i liked the astina, find the mazda3 got some resemblance le. the dashboard definitely looks more chio than chevy. overall mazda3 definitely score points in the look department. driving it also felt good and engine seemed less noisy than chevy. and... this one definitely is ah beng chia! hahahaha!!!

ok, next thing is to work out the financing and go for refresher course (must la, else wait meimeis scared dun dare to sit my car how?).

then mabbe next time ask johnny to zhng my car?? nah... chio enough liao, no need to zhng oredi! heh!
