Question

I was suspicious of the way he said "good car for you" as op

Answer 1

我对他说话的这种方式很疑惑,他非要说“对你来说这是辆好车”而不是与之相对的,简简单单一句“好车”.

as opposed to 介词词组,后跟名词或者名词性短语句子.

例如：

Redrawing and re-rendering of information should be minimized (as opposed to the behavior on Web sites,where almost any action requires a full redraw).

要尽可能地避免或者尽可能少地重新渲染或者刷新页面（这一点和普通网站的行为相反,普通的网站每个动作可能都需要重新刷新屏幕一次）.
