Questions: Planning to buy a Vios

[chyll2]

yung new model ng accent (RB) eh wala pang CRDI (yung lumang accent lang ang meron)

feature wise, tingin ko mas lamang ang bare accent vs Vios J
wala pa gaanong FC figures since bago pa lang (kahit sa 1.6 trim, wala pang nagpopost ng actual FC based on refill method)

sa hyundai casa, yup, marami na daw yung bad dealers. Kaso kung pupunta ka sa hyundai thread. Meron rin naman mga good casa(as suggested by SG), so dun ka na lang magpa-service.

with the price difference ng accent at vios J, siguro pwede mo na palagay yung power locks.

I bought a Vios 1.3E AT last year. Kung ngayon ako bibili, I most likely would get the new Accent 1.4 GL A/T.

For me, I'd avoid the 1.3J and 1.4GL M/T as both don't have ABS (although yung 1.3J merong driverside airbag).

If you want to buy brand new, my vote goes to the Accent 1.4GL AT, just stretch your budget as its worth the added price.

go for accent na kahit mag hintay ka pa.. sulit na yung 1.4L M/T..

kakasawa na ang vios.. pag labas mo sa casa kahit walang plaka eh hindi mukhang bago tingnan.. unlike yung accent!!!

btw, yung vios J hindi pa power lock yan.. power windows lang!!

isa pa maliit ang headroom nyan sa likod.. at madali lumubog yung rear suspension pag may 3 tao na sakay.. madalas din sumayad sa humps

Thanks to all for the new replies.
More votes for the Accent.
I must admit lalo ako na-sway...

sir chyll2, yun ang question sa isip ko.
Because from CRDI eh gas na ang bagong Accent, I'm thinking di pa proven ang performance ng new engine na to. (Or is it old already?)

sir anonemus, M/T lang talaga target ko for this one.
If it's 1.8L enginer pataas, I'd consider A/T. No offense. It's just me about A/T for sub-compacts.

sir yapoy, these are interesting new info.
akala ko power lock na ang Vios J, or na-mislead lang ako nung specs sa website nila.

My goal for this weekend - visit Hyundai showroom.
Sana may base model.
TY

Sir, I think you mean walang wireless yung "J". Pero may central driver side lock.
Nate-tempt tuloy ako mag "E" na lang.
May offer na 30K discount so 655k na lang.

[yapoy86]

alam ko wala talaga central lock yan.. parang yung hyundai starex TCi wala din.. same with Mitsubishi Adventure GLX na power windows lang walang central lock

[chyll2]

btw, im no sir here.. hehe I'm newbie and very much, a creeper lang sa site :D

im not sure about the accent, kaso yung 2nd Gen Vios ng officemate ko. ayaw nya ng madaming tao.. kung magpasakay sya eh dapat daw payat hehehe.. kasi sumasayad talaga sa humps.

And yes, new engine yung 1.4L ng accent. but dont forget the 5 year warranty ng hyundai as opposed to the standard 3 years ng iba.

Agree ako sa lahat ng nag vote for Accent.

Sulit na. All-power (Steering, windows, side mirror) for 588K.

Kahit bago pa yung 1.4L engine, pwede na yun kasi lahat ng Hyundai engines proven na.

Gen 2 Vios 1.5G user here, pero I prefer 2011 Accent.

[eljo3025]

Instead of getting a low-end Vios get an Accent instead for 588k for M/T or 680k for A/T both 1.4L but if you're getting a Vios G, I think it's okay. I like the Vios G more than an Accent Blue. I don't know why.

Accent na talaga. There are some Accent 1.4GL owners here who have told their stories at the Accent thread, and it is very positive with reports about lots of power and excellent fuel mileage even if it was still at its break-in period. Its so good that many have already logged hundreds of kilometers within the first few days! With just 588k you get the performance of the much more expensive 1.5L Vios already, perhaps even better due to the superior power to weight ratio. A steal talaga no matter how you put it. You can PM Sir EJS12129 for a good offer.
