What do you look for when you buy a new car?

[chieffy]

1.Others -- budget / price
2.Exterior -- looks, overall form
3.Safety -- ABS, SRS airbags, air curtains, etc
4.Engine -- torque/horsepower ratings, fuel economy
5.Interior -- cockpit, dashboard, seats, upholstery, seatbelts
6.Brand -- prestige, resale value, parts availability

[Execu-jock]

1. Over-all value(how loaded is the car with features).
2. Price.
3. Aesthetics
4. Brand
5. Engine.
6. Safety features.

[nestordreamin']

1. Car that would suit my need (for ex., for work, or mybe for family use, etc.)
2. Engine (is it built with the latest tech. available in market?)
3. exterior
4. interior
5. safety
6. amenities

3) performance

4) interior (it has to be spacious and versatile)

5) safety

6) price

7) brand

8) amenities (outside mirror defroster, heated seats, etc.)

9) exterior

granted na i would choose among the vehicles which are according to my needs....My number one consideration would be the price...then the brand...exterior look comes after that then its interiors.

[OTO]

What cars are available. You may have your heart on a model that came out in local review but never came out locally for one odd reason or another.

[wilcats]

i think reliability goes with the brand name narin...

[chr1smj_15]

BASTA MAY BIG DISCOUNT, FREEBIES, VALUE MEAL PARANG BUSOG SARAP, TIPID MEALS!

[Hayward]

Safety, Fuel Economy, Reliability, Durability & Functionality. The Aesthetics will come after those but not necessarily the last on my list.

[hotwheels]

engine performance comes first then its safety features

First concern is the budget. From that budget, which vehicles can fit into the budget. Then pros and cons comparison.

Which pros do I need/prefer and the corresponding con that I can live with.

Brand? no preference. As long as it has a relatively good track record.

[sboogie]

reliability
availability of parts

[cmcaro22]

syempre yung scope lang nung budget ko. engine ang first priority, kung economic ba sya o hindi.

[alwayz_yummy]

i look for what i suite my needs...

[jaspi11]

bukod sa feebies....kung swak ba sa budget mo? swak din ba sa need mo?

[KBR]

can I pick all of the above

I already bought 3 brand new cars (pero wala na yung first 2 cars, yung '04 Toyota Matrix = got repo'd / '05 Scion TC= got totalled in a wreck) but so far so good, all of the list of choices on top has everything on our car ('07 Toyota Camry SE V6)


aite, peace.

[aiahnyssa]

engine muna... kung fuel efficient... kasi mahirap ang pera ngaun alam ninyo yan..
next is interior... kasi kelangan comfortable ako sa loob...

yun lang...

[meledson]

First alam ko na limited lang ang budget. So alam ko kung hanggang saan lang ang kaya namin.

Gumawa ako ng list ng mga sasakyan kung ano ang kakasya sa budget. Then from the list, alin ang pinaka applicable sa needs namin. Normally 3 or less lang ang kadalasan na sakay. Pero pag week ends, sama ang buong family. natira ang APV at Avanza J. Avanza J ang pinili ko kasi di hamak na matipid in terms of FC. Mas maganda ang power to weight ratio than the APV. VVTi compared to carburated. VVTi na ako. Dual aircon ang Avanza sa entry level na APV ay hindi.
