car dilemma

Jack?! no laa...it's not about Jack anymore...

last Thursday, i've went all the way to settle everything - with the JPJ, insurance company and the financier...

so, what's left? the dilemma i'm facing now is on getting my new beau - 'Ryan'...
i've been a widow (of Jack) for nearly 4 months now...and mind you, it's really difficult...
i used to be active getting to where i desired to...

for the past 3 months ++, i've been unable to go to 4 of my friend's wedding receptions...i've been missing PBPP events...i've travelled home by bus...and one thing for sure, i miss driving like really really crazy...

hermmm...what would 'Ryan' be?let's go and have some reviews:

this is proton persona...my mama said this car is good enough for me...i've had a ride on my cousin - Saz's...basically, it may be okay...the most affordable option there is...the only thing is that i never fancies local cars...my thinking is i'm going to pay for nearly 7 years and i'm always having this doubt of problems that will arise within 2 years of owning a local car...Shin Chan is a different story though, since he is the 1st generation Kancil - MIRA 660 AT...now, Shin Chan is already 12 years old and still strong :)

thus, it is decided - no local cars for Liza...
no MyVi, no Viva, no Kelisa, no Kenari, no Kancil, no Kembara, no Nautica, no Savvy, no Gen2,no Satria Neo, no Saga BLM, no Wira, no Waja, no Iswara, no Perdana, no Sutera, no Forza, no Bestari...

this is Toyota Vios...Kak Intan is having her 6-yrs old Waja to be replaced with this car...Vios is a sedan and i considered sedan to be a family car...it doesn't suit me in terms of style...furthermore, Pak Cik Shah & Mek Jee are also using this car...isn't it obvious that Vios is intended for a family?it doesn't mean that i'm not considering that matter in particular...the right time will come eventually...
this is Suzuki Swift...2 of my besties - Mimi & Apih had this...it is quite nice and smooth...but, apparently i've noticed at one time when this car was parked next to a Kelisa and guess what...both looks quite similar...oh no...

this is Toyota iQ - little sister of Yaris...i like this concept car...very chic - just nice for me...the global debut is expected to be in the early of 2009...to come to malaysia - in your dreams laa...sigh~~~~same goes to Passo - if ever they bring it here, MyVi will be doomed...now, this one is the latest edition of Suzuki family - SX4...sporty and trendy...i am about to survey about Swift but have found this is more impressive...however, SX4 is categorized as mini MPV...bigger than Swift, small engine and less gears...i guess, the fuel consumption surely high...nevertheless, i'm planning to go and have a test drive...
this is a glimpse of the new Honda City to be launched globally in November 2008...so, it may arrive in Malaysia in early 2009...the front design is trying to imitate Accord...as i've mentioned, i'm not a fan of sedan cars...but, in this case, it is considerable...as for current City, i don't like the rear butt...
now, this is the car i'm really excited about...the new Honda Jazz which is expected to be launched in August 2008...the design is more rounded - quite like A-series Mercedes...after many many considerations, i might settle for this one as 'Ryan'...i'm not sure yet...i just love to dream...like what my Abema said to me,"Berangan bukan kene bayar pun!"
