1.3M-Tucson, Sta Fe, CRV, Forester?

[fullmetal]

they're just suggesting the mitsubishi ASX, if you don't like it just disregard their suggestions

[niky]

Just to clarify, which one (among my choices) is the "ASX"? Just backread the answers anew and realized two posters mentioned "ASX". I looked at my initial post and I never mentioned "ASX" among the choices

Saw it being talked about, thought it was amongst your choices.

But you should shop around. There are cars that people don't consider that are relatively good deals... such as the ASX, the new X-Trail (great transmission) and the age-old Escape, which comes with huge discounts.

double post

You can test drive the new Xtrail. Almost all Nissan dealers have one test unit and I think they still have their new year promo. Escape is also proven but it's still the first gen unless the facelift counts as a 2nd gen. Saw the Escape US version at tiendesitas, sana nilabas na lng dito. Parang mini Expedition.

Tucson: on your choices this is the one that suits you best. great power, fuel efficient, lots of features.

Sta Fe: if i'm going to buy a sta fe, i'd get the diesel. also it doesn't look like you need the sta fe's size.

CRV: boring. no offense to CRV owners out there but it's true.

Forester: handles better than all your choices but you probably don't care about handling, engine lacks power though compared to it's bigger brother. i wouldn't say it's under powered since it's just as fast as the CRV or the X-trail and the regular cars we encounter daily. parts are expensive and 1 casa in metro manila.

my suggestion, add the ASX and the X-trail to your list. test drive all 6 SUV's and see which one you'll fall in love with.

Thanks for the clarification re ASX, guys. I'm not familiar with the model though, but will take a look at it na din.

[foresterx]

here's what the asx looks like incase you didn't know.


and dami din features nan, it also looks a lot better in person than in pictures.

[renzo_d10]

Add the Xtrail in your list na din. If ever you'll consider this, it will fall as my 2nd placer ... next to the tucson. ;)

[Starex_Gold]

X-Trail yung 4WD.

Yung 2WD no comment...

[tc327]

hehehe parami ng parami ang mga choices siguro naman eh meron ka nang napupusuan among those vehicles mention

CRV: boring. no offense to CRV owners out there but it's true.

Kahit boring ang CR-V, it has lots of space, better looking interior than a Tucson and very fuel efficient. 9.5km/l average city driving pero sobrang light footed dapat. I prefer the CR-V as a daily driver compared sa CX-7 na mas mabilis kasi mas mabilis din sa fuel consumption ang 2.5L eh.

Maganda Tucson di lang malaki ang exterior at tacky ang interior compared to the CX-7.

[Starex_Gold]

Sa space, wala talagang tatalo sa CR-V. Hands down ako. Ilang cage ng aso pinagkasya ko doon e

Pero interior looks, nah. Boring din. Very simple.

I like the interior of CX-7 and Tucson. Stylish talaga, lots of buttons

Re: CX-7 FC. IMHO matipid siya kahit 2.5L, mas malakas sa gas yung CR-V 2.4S-X ko.

[sachiel]

Rear seat space ng CRV is also the most spacious so passenger comfort wise, it's the best.

I expect mas matipid yun CRV 2.4 sa CX-7. CX-7 is a gas guzzler compared to CRV in US reviews. Mukhang di bagay VTEC engines sa Edsa traffic.

*SG

Na test drive mo na Xtrail ng uncle mo?

[Starex_Gold]

Di parin eh. Minsan lang kami magkita.

Siguro kaya mas matipid yung CX-7 kasi 4X2 lang.

Yan ang problema sa Realtime 4WD maganda power to weight ratio ng CR-V 2.4S-X. Medyo overpowered hahaha

Yup totoo yan mas matipid CX-7 2.5 kesa sa CR-V 2.4 S-X.

Mga kilala kong naka CR-V 2.4S-X facelifted man o hindi nakaka 5.5-6.5km/L average. Sa CX-7 nakaka 7-7.5km/L average.

[Starex_Gold]

7.3km/L na average ko sa city driving ngayon. Baka nasanay na yung CR-V.

5.9km/L kapag rezing rezing mode

I think I will have to downgrade to the Tucson GLS, the one which costs 1.158M. and look at available cars in the same price range budget constraints.

thanks for the help guys.

+1 goodluck on your purchase. What I like about the GLS Gas of the Tucson is that the doors have the black door moulding so it doesn't look low end. Also it is already equipped with ABS/EBD unlike the GL Gas 4x2 of the Tucson. Post pics in the future if you can.

Actually wala.

4WD lang available yung door garnish.

Oo nga no? Sayang so ABS/EBD lang talaga lamang ng GLS sa GL?

Napaisip tuloy ako.. Kung mahilig ka magracing or dumadaan lagi sa mga highways get the GLS, kung City driving lang maybe you would want to consider the GL for considerable savings.
