Standard G 1.0 MT (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 1 Year
Fuel Economy: 18.0 km/litre (5.6 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 18 km/month
    1. Affordable to most low-medium income people in Malaysia
    2. Can consider very silent with air-conditioner is on
    3. Can put a 1kg abc fire extinguisher under driver seats (Easy to get and keep and no worry about rolling out to your peddle)

    1. Affordable, but not just a high quality product to Malaysia people
    2. Silent, but once open window with 70km/h, this will blow off your ears!
    3. Fire extinguisher isn't a free, not even given as a gift by sales representatives
    4. Gear 1 to gear 2 is very hard, and it sometime with a forcing sound even you doing the clutch correctly
    5. Sho[...]

320d M Sport (2014)
Bought used, Owned for 1 Year
Fuel Economy: 13.0 km/litre (7.7 L/100 km), Diesel, Mileage: 1,000 km/month
    This would be more of between the 316i and the 320d, with the 320d being the one I went for in the end, but for the most part they apply for both.

    Design wise, I have to say it is probably one of the best looking 3 series yet. Daring yet not overdone, sharp yet not too dramatic, the 3 series is like a tailored suit from Saville Row. There's r[...]
    Specifically on the 316i, the lack of power is noticeable. When you pull away and merge, you are reminded you bought the smaller engined 3 series. Not too big of an issue if you are coming from say a Jetta or Civic, but from another BMW product, yes, you can feel it. You need to rev the engine a bit to get moving. The steering and suspension too[...]

5-Door with Tech Pack (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 1 Year
Fuel Economy: 10.5 km/litre (9.5 L/100 km), RON97, Mileage: 1,000 km/month
    - Monster performance from a Golf. Definitely feels quicker 0-100 km/h than the manufacturer's claim of 5 seconds
    - 2nd generation Adaptive Chassis Control (DCC) works wonders. Previously lived with a Mk6 GTI which had the subpar 1st generation DCC. Now you can actually feel a huge difference between the different settings
    - It handles like a [...]
    - Like many in Asia Pacific, Malaysians get the slightly detuned version. Still goes like a rocket but less impressive for the pub talk
    - Soundtrack not as great or genuine as some of its rivals. The Soundaktor isn't for every enthusiast but can be disabled
    - If 'brand value' matters to you, this might not be the most value for money hot hatch[...]

    Best hybrid technology available in the country
    Comfort of a Camry with much better performance than any previous Camry available locally
    Fuel efficiency is surprisingly good for a car of this size and weight
    Good acceleration due to electric motor's instantaneous torque.
    Relatively good price in 2015 due to the tax exemption.

Fuel Economy: 14.0 km/litre (7.1 L/100 km), RON97, Mileage: 1,600 km/month
    1.Performance is superb with class leading power. When I wanted to buy my car, i decided to buy the Mercedes A250 sport which is almost same performance to the GTI. Than when the GTI was launched i decided to give it a try eventhough numerous rumours of the DSG problem. When i test drove both rivals, the GTI won my heart. Its power was uncompara[...]
    Before i start let me remind you its not for comfort driving. If so lets continue. I feel the performance can tweaked more for power but its still ok. The looks is still not up to date but its getting there. VW should make optional items for this car like keyless ignition and keyless entry, panoramic roof, LED rear headlights and a styling kit.

Bought new, Owned for 2 Years
Fuel Economy: 7.5 km/litre (13.3 L/100 km), RON97, Mileage: 1,000 km/month
    For starters this car has very good looks and appeal, definitely a head turner especially with the dynamic line.

    The car has a decent amount of power, acceleration is good and car feels stable during high speed. In fact, it drives like a sports car.

    Seats are pretty comfortable. Bucket seats are lovely. Good quality materials used for the[...]
    Road noise is loud and irritating at times, not what you expect from a car of this price. Gearbox may sometimes be very indecisive. Rotary Gearknob may sometimes be abit slow to respond. Although it has power, the turbo lag can be very irritating. Poor visibility around the car, many blind spots, poor rear visibility due to the design of the car[...]

Fuel Economy: 6.6 km/litre (15.2 L/100 km), RON97, Mileage: 1,200 km/month
    -Good low end torque
    -Equivalent performance to my previous 2.5 NA SUV but drives better with better low end torque
    -Good sound system with SYNC voice command. Very handy.
    -Well built solid body and chassis
    -3 years free maintenance with parts included. Changed wipers, battery and brake pads at no charges at all
    -Satisfying drive
    -Fuel consumption quite high. Urban drive can be as high as a 2.5 NA engine SUV.
    -Have to watch out and be aware of the high battery power consumption. Replaced car battery just after a year.

Fuel Economy: 30.0 km/litre (3.3 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,500 km/month
    Fuel efficiency. Can easily get around 25km/litre.
    Good suspension which people fly through bump like me even when I'm 40+km/h. The bump still won't hit the bottom.
    Good speaker
    Very stable when around 180+km/h due to its aerodynamic
    Safely Feature is great for a car that under 100k.
    E-cvt engine still perform very good after quite a years.[...]
    Legroom for this hybrid hatchback is reasonable but is way too small if your family or friends are around 180cm height.
    When your car is low battery while you are in the traffic, the engine recharge would make the whole car shaking and engine sounds is very noisy.

    Interior looks really nice and neat
    Quality is really bad for a Germany's vehicle.
    I owned few BMW vehicles, the quality is much more better than MB's car.
    The engine sound is way too loud
    Suspension is too stiff that make the car feels like you are driving a cheap car.
