i'd go for Exalta first.. once inside a (well-kept) Exalta GS, i'd get my checkbook and start writing the seller a check. plus nice handling, good FC and Nissan's legendary A/C.
next pic would be Civic. my only concern is the cost of parts. just make sure to scout for the unit with the least number of replacements needed. Alo, if you're talking about 3-4 year difference compared to Sentra's, i'll still get the Exalta. Matagal yung four years and the wear and tear, for me, shall not take the place in importance over brand.
last pic would be Lancer. A/C medio sirain based on colleagues' feedback. not to mention the not so friendly suspension.
hope this helps.

January 2nd, 2009 08:52 AM #4im assuming daily drive mo to.
get a honda or toyota.
if its 2nd hand then you need to have a lot of aftermarket and surplus parts available on the cheap, honda and toyota has lots of them, and alam na ng mga mekaniko lahat yan.
kung year model basehan mo thats why your considering the other brands, ok din, pero kaya mataas resale value ng honda at toyota kasi matibay.

my first choice would be the lancer. its the cedia type, which, in my personal taste, is one of the best looking lancers released (aside from the EX). tanggal na din ang suspension issues ng lancers dito sa model na ito.
my second choice would be the exalta.
i would scratch off the civic. masyado na syang matanda for the price.
