100K - 150K cars

May idagdag lang ako. Mas maganda ang interior nya kumpara sa akin. Fresh pa ang dashboard nya parang bago. All power pa ang GLI (kaya lang ang iba di na gumagana). Ang Lancer ko, manual lahat pero gumagana lahat. Cheaper to maintain ang Lancer ko, kumpara sa GLI nya (palaging may pinapaayos), I think.

I have had these cars before:

An ESi can handle abuse at no sweat (190 kph 3 passengers; powerslides, autocross).
If you consider getting this, be sure you get a real ESi, not an LX (which has a carbureted engine). Lucky you if you got one with a d15b vtec in it.(Fuel economy can go as high as 17 km/l mixed)..


A Lancer GLi (hotdog) has a relevantly weak suspension if not maintained well, but I tried doing autocross while the SLEX was still under renovation. It didn't disappoint.
It's got a great 1.5 efi sohc engine which, under a light foot, can give very decent fuel economy.
(Fuel economy can go as high as 11 km/l mixed)



Currently, I drive a 323 Astina. Sporty handling. Very willing acceleration. (Fuel consumption is fair enough; as high as 10 km/l mixed)


If you max out your budget, be sure you get one in a very good condition (walang paayusin) since you won't have money for repairs anymore).

My suggests:
1. Corolla ae92 (smallbody) swap with 4AFE
On theory, it should be a very fuel efficient car.

2. Honda Civic ESi
Be sure it's fule-injected: ph16

3. Corolla GLi
Be sure it's fuel-injected: 4AFE

4. Sentra B13 ECCS
Be sure it's fuel-injected: GA16DE

5. Lancer GTi (singkit)
Very light body and EFI engine can give amazing fuel economy
(I used to borrow my tito's GTi before so I know)

hildweller :: baka hindi naalagaan ng mabuti yun. My 13 year old bigbody is still in it's pristine condition. Nung nagpakabit nga ako ng muffs sabi parang bago daw makina eh.

Proper maintenance is the answer. :thumbup: And, it doesn't depend on the car kung madali masira or not, it depends on the owner. Kahit na BMW pa yan, kapag di inalagaan, wasak kaagad. ;)

cheap din naman maintenance ng gli eh. every 6 months 2k+ lang ginagastos ko for it's tune up.

markuz :: oks lang din yung series 3. Pero yung 1.6 ha.

corolla gli or sentra super saloon?....

anyways, thanks again for the inputs!

[renzo_d10]

corolla gli.

cheap to maintain, cheap in gas, a/c is cool enough, design doesn't gets outdated. :D

Pwede din AE92. Engine swap ka nalang to ST. ;) or 4AFE para tipid. Pwede din beams. hehe

Ano ba yung beams? 4AGE Silvertop din ba yun?

[renzo_d10]

*isa :: nope. 3S-GE Redtop VVT-i siya. ;)

[aejhayl17]

*isa :: nope. 3S-GE Redtop VVT-i siya. ;)

kala ko mag silvertop 20v ka sir? pics naman ng muffs! sorry OT

[renzo_d10]

aej :: yup. magST ako, hopefully. haha. Kaya lang mas tipid yang 3SGE kaysa sa 4AGE. Nakaka11km/l daw yan accdg to the TACP people.

here you go. di sira yung trunk ko, sadyang binuksan yan. hehehehe

[markuz14]

* renzo.... mas fuel efficient ang gli?
