150-160k 2nd Hand sedans

**ridihil** · January 11th, 2008 03:26 AM

Thanks guys... I know i would be getting great answers in here...

Actually, kung ako lang, Sentra talaga ako eh... Konti lang kasi sya compared sa civics and corollas... Wala din naman ako balak ikarera or i-dress up ng todo ang kotse... siguro matinding upgrade na ang 16-17 inch wheels at konting audio set-up... after nun, all stock na.

people have been enticing me kasi to get a civic or corolla kasi dami nga parts kung gusto mo i-set-up bu the thing here is, wheels at audio nga lang ang i-uupgrade ko.

Meron pa po bang ibang may feedback about the fuel consumption of the car? (as well as the mazdas or mitsus na nabanggit ninyo) kasi isa talaga sya sa considerations ko... anyways, got links in here ng mga sentras na nakita ko dito din sa tsikot... can you guys check 'em out and give me feedbacks too?

Sorry po ah? if ever kasi, first time car owner as i only own a motorcycle... I would be planning to buy a unit next month or pinaka late, march. here are the links of the sentras i have seen as well as some corollas na pumasa sa akin... need more of your help guys! thanks a lot!!!

by the way guys.... top choice for me there is the 158k green sentra...

wala po kasi making SE Saloon pero ok lang po kahit wala na ABS... di naman ako kaskasero eh... saka sobrang city driving lang... 50-60kph lang siguro...

thanks uli guys! you're the best!

among your choices bro, they look ok.
but i would suggest that you contact the seller, and do a test drive. bring a mechanic with you so he can check everything.

you can never get a second hand car without checking everything and test driving them.

Goodluck po sa paghahanap sir.

96 model lang ang SE Saloon.

97 models however has driver's airbag.

98 models Series IV has driver's airbag and ABS on SS models, if im not mistaken pati foglights ata meron.

a good used Super Saloon Sentras are good for 8km/l fuel consumption.

mas matipid ang EX-Saloon but less equipped. yung 2000 Exalta EX-Saloon ng lolo ko binenta nya dirt cheap sa ahente nya 140K lang, hulugan pa. hehe if you wanna go EX Saloon, try finding the late S4 version or the Exalta EX-Saloon kase all power na ito except side mirrors. still no tach, no dimming rearview mirror but has tilt steering, 4 speaker stereo, 14" mags.

would it really be a smart choice to get a 1.3 or 1.4 sentra? anyone have fuel consumption figures of the two?

yep +1 ako sa Sentra SS..baba kasi resale value ng sentra dahil sa misconception ng mga buyers pero if you used to drive a sentra you would agree na magaling naman ang performance ng mga sentra. just be sure of the condition ng bibilhin nyo pag maganda pa then go ahead.

gusto ko nga sana buyback sentra ko sa utol ko kaya lang she prefers cash eh kabibili ko pa lang ng brandnew Civic ko..and i can only offered staggered payment..

suggest ko mag sentra ka yung mukhang LEC pero all power, i forgot the model, then yung sukli mo pang sounds and porma sa labas. tipid nyan sa gas and di ka madidisappoint sa aircon. and hindi sya mahirap i maintain.

wag mazda familia, mabibwisit ka lang sa idling problem nyan and anlakas kumain ng gas, although mabilis sya.

actually yang sentra na yan (nakakatawa man sa iba) ay ang dream car ko. i remember when i was still in elem and i wanted to have that na.. ngayon, gusto ko talaga sya kaso ang dami ngang negative feedback with nissans.... you used to own a Sentra ba? share mo naman experiences mo bro with the car... i am very much interested para malaman ko kung tama ba choice ko... thanks!

braders, i own a 97 sentra EX saloon and have difficulty getting rid of it...go figure

...solid car, very reliable and havent had any unexpected breakdowns..of course like any car you will have to be consistently meeting the required maintenance schedule...parts are readily available and comparatively cheap...FC is 9-10 km/lt city driving and 15-17km/lt hi-way (thats keeping speed at the 80-90 kph range)..for those who have misgivings about sentras, well am sure they never owned one

so i guess that makes them an authority...on spreading unfounded rumors

...my 2 cents!
