Have to book the car by this week although we haven't finalised which car to get. Took the Wish on a test drive last weekend. Not bad, but nothing special either. It seemed to have more engine noise than the Mazda, but then again, I'm not totally sure. Interior room seems ok. In fact, Krystal, Ryan and Jaden were all there!! haha
Personally, I'm keen on the Mazda, but a little worried about the resale value - since M'sia seems to have 'special' resale values for Hondas and Toyotas. Try buying a Ford or an Alfa Romeo :)
Probably take Krystal to see that Mazda and then finalise things.
Also now looking for a 2nd maid for the house to (hopefully) take care of the kids. Krystal will be taking some extra leave but plans to go back to work. Basically, it's a lot to give up (esp. in terms of $$$). Will use the time to evaluate whether the new maid can handle the job. If she can't then, I guess she will have to stop working...
We'll be going to Ipoh the following week to celebrate Krystal's Tai Pak's 70th birthday. Even though I have a church Leaders' Retreat that weekend, we decided to go Ipoh after much discussion. A bit bad in that sense as I think it (Leaders' Retreat) is a pretty important event - esp. with Pastor Daniel stressing that he wants EVERYONE to be there. Having said that, this will be the time when I wished I already had an MPV..... not sure how we're going to make it to Ipoh in my car. One idea is to let Ryan sit in the front seat (which is ok since he can now sit front-facing and so has no problems with the airbag) and let Krystal, Jaden and Mima sit at the back. Will see lah. Too bad you can't buy a car and have it instantly :P

I vote Honda! Wait... is that even one of your options? I only say this off the back of their amazing advertising campaign. And who's to say advertising doesn't work?
Heh.
Let's have some pictures of Ryan and Jaden (and mom)!
Well, Mazda is pretty spacious and nice. Resale value only small portiion. If you have comfort driving that's more important and also safety of the car. I vote for Mazda! If you're planning to get a MPV type car. Sedan Toyota or Honda. Mazda has been well known for its MPV like cars a long time. Still your choice
HAHA just booked the Mazda already.
Sorry - Honda was not in the list after the 1st viewing. The back door for the Stream is WAY too small and the rear is very cramped due to the aerodynamic shape (I guess).
Ryan and Jaden pic... coming soon - need to get from home pc.
