Buying My First Car: New or Second-Hand?

Dad, look at this! It's brand new, and it's gorgeous.

Ayah, lihat ini! Masih baru dan cantik banget.

Wow, it's nice. How much is it, though?

Wah, bagus. Tapi harganya berapa?

Well... about thirty-two thousand dollars.

Yah... sekitar 32.000 dolar.

Thirty-two thousand? For your first car?

32.000? Untuk mobil pertamamu?

I know, but I've got a steady job now.

Aku tahu, tapi sekarang aku sudah punya pekerjaan tetap.

Okay, let's think about it carefully, honey.

Oke, kita pikirkan baik-baik dulu, Nak.

Are you planning to pay for it with a loan?

Kamu mau bayar pakai pinjaman?

Yeah, the dealer offered me a five-year loan.

Iya, dealernya menawarkan pinjaman lima tahun.

And what's the interest rate?

Terus, suku bunganya berapa?

Um, I didn't actually ask...

Um, sebenarnya aku belum tanya...

Ugh, that's the first thing you should ask!

Aduh, itu hal pertama yang harus kamu tanyakan!

A new car loses value the moment you drive it away.

Mobil baru langsung turun harga begitu kamu bawa keluar dari dealer.

Really? Even if it's brand new?

Serius? Meskipun masih baru?

Especially then. It can lose twenty percent in a year.

Justru itu. Bisa turun 20 persen dalam setahun.

Okay, this one's only three years old.

Oke, yang ini baru tiga tahun.

Let's check the mileage first.

Kita cek jarak tempuhnya dulu.

It says forty-five thousand miles. Is that a lot?

Tertulis 45.000 mil. Itu banyak nggak?

Not bad at all, actually. About fifteen thousand a year.

Sebenarnya lumayan. Sekitar 15.000 per tahun.

But we need to see the service history.

Tapi kita perlu lihat riwayat servisnya.

The salesman said it's never been in an accident.

Kata penjualnya, mobil ini belum pernah kecelakaan.

Go on, take it for a test drive.

Ayo, coba test drive.

Wow, it drives really smoothly!

Wah, nyetirnya halus banget!

Wait, did you hear that noise when you braked?

Tunggu, kamu dengar bunyi itu waktu ngerem?

Oh no... is that a bad sign?

Aduh... itu tanda buruk ya?

Maybe it just needs new brake pads.

Mungkin cuma perlu kampas rem baru.

We'll ask them to fix it before you sign anything.

Kita minta mereka perbaiki dulu sebelum kamu tanda tangan apa pun.

So they'll replace the brakes and knock off five hundred dollars!

Jadi mereka ganti remnya dan potong harga 500 dolar!

See? That's how you negotiate.

Tuh kan? Begitulah cara menawar.

And it's half the price of the new one!

Dan harganya cuma setengah dari yang baru!

I'm proud of you, kiddo. You made a smart choice.

Ayah bangga sama kamu, Nak. Pilihanmu cerdas.

Thanks, Dad. But you're paying for the first tank of gas!

Makasih, Yah. Tapi bensin pertama Ayah yang bayar ya!
