    if you can afford a new car, then new car it is!
    e ano kung mabangga dahil student driver pa lang kayo? that's what insurance is for!
    besides, it's not very easy to learn to drive using an imperfect (dahil used na) car..

    yeah yeah.;. i know.. not all used cars are citrus.. but TS strikes me as complete beginners..

    have fun.

    Brand new na kung may budget. Lalo na wala pa kau masyado alam sa sasakyan para peace of mind na walang aalalahaning sira compared sa 2nd hand. . .

    Vehicles are a lot more reliable these days...

    So, if you have a budget for a brand new car, then a 3/4-year old well-maintained car is a very good option.... It will be just like new... You have the dough and you should realize that it is King. So, just wait for the right car/opportunity... You even save yourself P300K in depreciation.

    Brand new:

    Pros:
    - wala kang iisipin sa repairs and maintenance.
    - sarap ng amoy ng bagong oto.

    Cons:
    - depreciation


    Used Car:
    Pros:
    - walang depreciation

    Cons:
    - mahirap i maintain lalo na kung wala kang trusted shop or mechanic.
    - mahirap i maintain ng baguhan sa oto. tapos wala kang trusted shop or mechanic.

    Looks like brand new dapat ang sa inyo.
    But for me, i ony bought a brand new car once. Most of the time, i go second hand na 2-3 years old lang, para bago pa din and onti pa lang din ang kailangang ayusin.

    Brand new. I will only buy second hand if I know the seller took care of the vehicle really well.

    Kung mag-aaral pa lang nang driving, mas okay na magasgasan wl2nd hand na mga 2-3 yrs old pa lang nagagamit. CVT is right, there are alot of good quality 2nd hand cars which will save you the initial depreciation bite.

    2nd hand for me since nag-aaral pa kayo. Atleast di kayo kabadong pagpraktisan. Then pagsanay na, get the car of your dreams😄

    My vote 2nd hand car since nagaaral pa lang kayo. Mas masakit sa loob kapag bagong bago auto mo tapos magagasgasan o mabubunggo. Kapag 2nd hand hindi masyado.

    Go for kilalang matibay na mura, pang harabas. Tapos kapag confident na kayo sa driving skills pwede na brand new, yung luma coding car na lang.

    Brand new if you have budget. 2nd hand kung medyo hindi kaya ng budget brand new. But you should know the owner if you buy 2nd hand car. I also had a 2nd hand car (altis2007) and bought it to my uncle last 2011. I already sold the car to my friend last year. Ang napalitan ko lang don front shocks, stab link, brake pads/ brake shoe and wheel bearing mula nakuha ko sa tito ko yun. Hanggang ngayon masaya pa din friend ko at wala siya ginagastos na kung anu anu :-)

    Kakabili ko nga lang din pala 11th gen altis. Brand new naman ngayon kase may alam na ako sa car. Maganda talaga magpractice sa 2nd hand car at alamin mga dapat alamin sa isang kotse na hindi na covered ng warranty :-)

    Pls help me choose mga Sirs:
    '15 Isuzu MUx vs '13 Chevy TB LT.

    Mux - 1.26M + LTO + Ins = 1.3M ?
    TB - 950k pati na change owner cost.

    Mux - earliest possible availability, April pa.
    TB - being sold by a car dealer in QC, registered in the name of the 1st and only owner, with the new b/w plates, from Region1, odo at 24k kms. Seller wont allow me to contact the owner. Instead, he suggests that we bring the TB to a casa for inspection. Am from NEcija, no Chevy casa here.

    Am paying cash with sweat-earned money, and this will be my 4th and probably last vehicle. Wifey votes for the Mux, but the P350k difference speaks loudly.
    Thanks po for any wisdom that you may share.

    If this will be your last car sir, then I'll opt for a brand new car.
