    Pahelp naman jan mga sir... di ako makapili between the two...dati kase sure na Altis ang choice ko but since tinanggal na ng Toyota lahat ng previous discounts and freebies ko...magiging parehas na sila ng price ng Elantra GLs.

    Altis w/o freebies and discount ~ Php 900k + backup sensor, tint, etc + LTO registration
    Elantra GLS with free LTO = 938k


    Sa looks of interior and exterior, hands down Elantra ako...but I'm a little bit concerned about the performance and reliability of Hyundai as a whole...

    I'm scheduled to test drive the Elantra this Wednesday...I have a bank PO already...

    Guys...patulong naman jan...what are your thoughts?

    Altis G pa rin. Masyadong stripped down yung Elantra eh pagkakaalam ko.

    In afew months supply will be normalized so i suggest you wait nalang. Sayang din ung discounts malaki din un. But if u cant wait, I guess u cant go wrong with the altis. The elantra looks better n more exciting but its reliability isnt proven yet. Tapos siguradong waitlist ka pa...

    Sa Elantra na. Since you are eyeing the 938k variant, its got quite a lot of standard equipment already. And the 1.8DCVVT engine is, of course, much better than the Altis's 1.6 and its got a 6 speed A/T to boot.

    grabe ang lupit na ng hyundai ngayon ano, parang nalalagpasan na niya ang mga jdm products dito sa pinas, pero kung mahilig ka mag-customize ng kotse, you really need to buy the altis, di pa tested ang elantra at wala pa akong nakikitang ganyan sa kalye pero mukhang quality naman dahil ang tucson ay based sa elantra at pareho din ng makina(ata?)

    No the Elantra is not related to the Tucson whatsoever, and their engines are not the same at all... The Tucson has a Theta II gasoline engine while the Elantra has the Nu 1.8...

    I still believe that the current spec Elantra is lacking. I would wait for a higher spec to arrive...

    Epicfail na naman sa Hyundai...they texted the whole world claiming that the Elantra would arrive yesterday...tpos ngyon nagsorry sila kase next week na daw maging available since nagkaproblem daw sa radio installation...

    I'm now adding Honda City 1.5e as one of my options.

2011 Hyundai Elantra GLS A/T or 2011 Toyota Altis 1.6G A/T
