1.1 Hyundai Getz GL vs 1.3 Toyota Vios J

[froshie1]

Toyota Vios 1.3 J owner here. I drive it mostly City driving. Eto fuel economy ko:

1.) Pag wala akong pakialam sa fuel economy ang average consumption ko pards nasa 12.9km/liter.

2.) Pag sobrang conscious ako sa FE ang average ko pare nasa 14.5km/liter. Nagawa ko na mag 15km/liter pero paminsan minsan lang iyon.

Anyway since sinabi mong malaking bagay sa iyo ang 85k, go for the Getz. Kasi ang reason ko dun, ok naman ang Hyundai pre. Marami akong nakita sa US na Hyundai brand at nakapagdrive na ako ng Hyundai sa US. Ang naging mga rental cars ko dun eto:

1.) Toyota Camry 2006
2.) Mazda 6 2005/2006 (forgot the year)
3.) Hyundai Sonata 2006
4.) Pontiac Grand Prix 2006

(lahat ng apat na yan low milleage pa nung dinrive ko)

Diyan sa apat ang number 1 sa akin overall performance and comfort ay Toyota Camry, pangalawa ang Hyundai, pangatlo ang Pontiac at huling huli ang Mazda 6. Actually pwede ko narin sabihin when it comes to comfort and performance parehas sila ng Toyota Camry.

Pag bibili ka naman din ng auto di lang naman gas ang gastos mo dito. Maintenance din. So I'm assuming maingat kang driver sa Hyundai ka na lang. You save 85k which we know is big money in Pinas and pwede mo pa itong gawing buffer for maintenance costs and personal investments.

homer_jay, ano na nabili mong car? any updates? reviews?

Hello, fellow tsikoteers.. I was surprised to see this thread back so I guess I owe you guys an answer. I delayed my purchase of the new car (I plan to buy by late Jan / early Feb) but I am increasing my budget now to P550k. I am still thinking of what car to get. Have been reading so many bad reviews about the Honda City (i was thinking of the City A sana) so it's making me think twice. Any suggestions on the best car for P550k?

what i can say is that, just keep your old civic, coz you just downgrading if your selling it for a nearly bare car .... plus 7km/l is not that bad its a decent milage just keep your engine serviced regularly etc etc ok kna plus nakatipid kapa ng 550k or i suggest just get a 2nd car with your 550k instead of selling the civic

just an opinion

and btw, not to bash vios j owners but our company just got one for our agents and i got to use it, medyo hassle talaga e ... no power windows locks etc etc at least your civic has power everything its really a big difference
