The search for a new car is very exciting. You might have already been imagining yourself driving around town with your friends in your new car.  There is always much more hype when purchasing a new car because you are the first owner.

Getting a car loan can be quite a hassle and you have to worry about making payments every month or else, the interest will get to you.

On the other side of the coin is simply buying a second hand car where you do no need to apply for any loan.

Another benefit of buying a used car aside from the savings is that you get to stick to the standard features of cars. New cars today have so much more technologically advanced features which will make it harder to fix and more expensive too. If you stick to those non-fancy ones, you will see how less of a hassle it will be to maintain your car.

The decision to get a car loan or buy a used car is yours to make. Think and decide on which one you prefer more, saving money or fulfilling the hype of buying a new car.

By comparing two popular RAV4 models, the 2001 and 2009 versions, you’ll be able to understand better why the RAV4 has sustained its buying power as a favorite among consumers. With the 2001Rav4L, the main attraction is in its sportiness and charm. It is also very practical for carrying things around since it has ample storage space for individuals and small families.
This version is also very unlike other Toyota cars but at the same time, it’s a serious contender because of its fuel efficiency, ease-of use and edginess.  It’s also not just what you see from afar that impressed but also when sitting in the car or driving it. It has more torque than the earlier models and can achieve up to 148 HP at 6000 RPM.
The 2009 RAV4, in comparison is larger but maintains its lightness. It has been voted as one of the “5 Best Trucks” by major magazines and car experts. There are 2 engine types with this model, the base 2.5 liter version and the 3.5 liter V6 engine. The first is a reliable 179 HP, 4 speed transmission engines while the second is a 269 HP which means it can go faster than a sporty sedan.
The main competitor of the RAV4 would be the Honda CR-V and the Ford Escape. Of course, when choosing one of these three, price tags very often come into play and one would most probably end up with a Japanese car than the Ford.

There is one problem with the Toyota Noah. It’s made for the Asian market which means you either buy it as a brand new car somewhere in Asia or you find a reseller who imports vehicles from Asia into your country.

The 154 horse power engine can reach the top speed of about 175 kilometers an hour and even faster if your load is light. It was first released in 2001 and the latest model is a 2007 version. You can opt for a 2 wheel drive or a 4WD.

As an MPV, the Toyota Noah is nothing exemplary to look at. It’s functional and cannot be called anything like “sleek,” “stylish,” “beautiful.” But if you are to interview a Toyota Noah owner, he or she would swear by its reliability and functionality. Besides, not everyone wants a looker. They’re happy with a conservative appearance in their vehicle that does not call attention to itself.
The main attributes of the Noah is the space you get in the interior and the ease in driving and maneuvering it. It also compensates with an excellent air-conditioning system and durability for long trips.

It has been compared to the Toyota Hi-Ace which shifts gear a micro second faster than the Noah and can do faster speeds. Because the Noah has a higher ground clearance, it’s perfect on rough, unpaved roads and you will often find that previous history of past owners of the Noah used the MPV in rural areas.
