    Sentra for me. And Nissan is a bit desperate to sell these days. I'm sure you can wring a great deal from your Nissan dealer...

    that's why i'm tempted to buy the sentra kasi sobrang baba talaga and pricing scheme nila compare to toyota, honda and other brand.

    pero worry ko lang baka may problem sa quality kasi mura nga.

    Problem sa quality? Sounds like a Honda

    I think it's just because of the current sentra's styling which is a bit dated nowadays that's to blame for the poor sales that's why they're desperate...

    But personally I like the Sentra's styling...

    agree strongly...
    i also like the styling. medyo executive and classy ang dating.

    imho, pati interiors ng sentra ok din eh. not to mention the nissan advantage na malakas ang aircon.

    I'd go for the Optra 1.6 LS M/T(P738K), it comes with a standard driver's airbag, 4-wheel disc brakes with ABS, 5-disc CD changer, and Five 3-point seatbelts and 15 inch alloy wheels.
    For P668K you can get the Optra 1.6 L, which has similar features to the GSX but costs around P50K less. (1.6 L models also have 4-wheel disc brakes, but no ABS).

    get the nissan if u want fuel effiency
    but looks goes to the Optra
    resale value is around dead even with a slight edge to the sentra
    nissan sentra wins in parts availability.
    go with the nissan.

    Go with Sentra!!!

    the Sentra's styling is kinda OK! its classy and elegant.

    get the GSX i-Style with better exterior styling.

    the decision in purchasing a car is yours, but before you do try visit the dealership and take a look at the car your going to purchase, ask for a brochures, list of specs, prices, freebies, etc... if its possible ask for a test drive... most of the dealers offers to test drive their vehicle for potential customers...

    furthermore visit their service department and look around... important is the after sales service...

    i know that every dealership varies, in terms of discount, and freebies offered... try visiting several dealership and look around, example, your looking for a nissan sentra, there is a dealership in quezon ave, and in shaw try visiting them both, and make inquiries...

2006 Sentra 1.6(gsx m/t) or Optra  1.6(m/t)
