I currently have at least $5k and have 2 options which is to save a little bit more for a car around $6k or get a advanced bnz loan for around $2-3k which is about $250 a Month and get a better car. I usually get around at least $500 a month. Which one should I invest in?
Cars I'm looking at for my first option is a Nissan tiida 2005,Mazda demio 2007 and my second option is a Toyota auris 2006, Mazda axela 2005, vw golf 2006.

Hi there,
We would recommend buying the safest newest car within your means.
Mazda and Toyota would be the best for reliability and the Golf for safety (but not reliability). Nissan's are popular but might have a higher potential for CVT transmission problems.
So it is a bit of a hard choice when buying a Japanese import in this price range.
