Altis/Cruze/Lancer EX/Civic/Focus

[Jayson23]

Hello fellow Tsikoters. I've been reading a lot from this site and helped me with my previous ride, a Honda City 1.5 vtec. I just sold it last week and I'm looking for an upgraded replacement. Here are my choices and hopefully you could give me your opinions and suggestions:

1. Toyota Altis 2.0V A/T - Php 1,125,000
2. Chevy Cruze 1.8 LT - Php 1,048,000
3. Mitsu Lancer EX GT-A - Php 1,295,000 less 155,000 discount
4. Honda Civic 2.0S white - Php 1,135,000
5. Ford Focus TDCi 2.0 - 1,195,000

My main concerns are:
1. Riding Comfort / Performance
2. Fuel Consumption
3. Maintenance Cost
4. Very good interior
5. After Sales Service

My budget is around 1.2M

Thank you so much in advance for your feedbacks

Wag nang pag isipan pa.

Lancer EX GT-A (Color Black) :clap: FTW!! :clap:

Yung Civic luma na, malapit na yung kapalit nyan, pati yung Focus.

or

test drive mo and depende sa taste mo sa design.

IMHO, among the choices, only the Lancer GT-A looks like a P1 milliion peso car, perhaps due to close resemblance to the Evo X.

For me, FOCUS diesel. I dont mind if its an old model. Its the DIESEL ENGINE FTW!!! Following very closely is the Lancer GTA (especially red) Feature and Spec wise. 3rd with a big margin between the top picks: Altis for its practicality and maintenance cost. Plus, you get a Dual VVTi that is currently found in Camry. 4th :Chevy since its new but the horror stories of chevy casa are still around. 5th would be Civic. too common but still a good ride.

These choices are great. Any of these are value for money. But if I were in your shoes, i'll have countless SLEEPLESS nights choosing between Focus and Lancer.

I'm willing to spend the P1.2 million on:

Lancer: For that Evo look
Focus TDCi: turbo diesel and 6-speed MT, dude (and sunroof???)

6 Speed Dual-Clutch A/T yung Focus Diesel ngayon. Pero wala nang sunroof

Yari ka naman sa maintenance ng Diesel. Magastos.

Not sure with the maintenance cost. Kasi yung Dual VVT-i Camry mahal ang parts sa engine.

With a budget of 1.2M , ill chose between the lancer EX GT-A & Hyundai Tucson

Lancer EX GT-A ka na hehehe pogi talaga

Yari ka naman sa maintenance ng Diesel. Magastos.

yup. That's the price of common rail engines. But hey, the torque of diesel is unmatched by its gasoline counterparts.

But it's still a toyota. Checked the pms cost of altis in TQA and it is cheaper than other 2.0L brands.

Syempre naman. Iba talaga ang Torque ng CRDi engines (kanina lang may iniwan akong mayabang na Fortuner) using my R eVGT Tucson.

Pero kung practicality, Lancer EX parin talaga. Pogi pa. Feature-packed pa.
