    I was deciding between the focus trend or elantra. I was going for the focus already, then pauwe napadaan ako sa toyota north edsa. Boom, andun yung grey 1.6G na 2014 toyota altis. immediately cancelled my reservation with ford, reserved sa toyota manila bay( since sila lang yung may dadating na grey na gusto ko). Hoping to get my new altis either jan 20 or jan 28. So yeah, get the new altis. When you see it in person, it will blow you away. Nakalimutan ko bigla ichura ng elantra. And again, toyota yan, 100% sure ka relieable yan and you won't have any problems.

    Good move ni Toyota, a lot of buyers ngayon nag dadalawang isip na tuloy bumili, nagsilipat sa Altis. ;)

    Spoken with agents, walang discounts ang altis. Ganun daw talaga pag brand new. Either have to wait 3 months pa. ;)

    Because of recent developments, ALTIS

    I just wish they dumped the 1.6 engine and replaced it with at least a 1.8L...

    1.6 is sooooooo 90s.

    Friday madness ngayon sa Magic 89.9... so retro is in ngayon. :D

    IMO, the 1.6s are here to stay especially with people going for good FC numbers so we have more money to SC. Buti nalang talaga they finally dumped the 4-speed a/t for starters. At least Toyota made some headway there unlike with the Vios.

    The market doesn't want anything bigger than a 1.6 for midrange compacts.

    Nilangaw ang Lancer EX when it was exclusively a 2.0 across the range. When the 1.6 was introduced, sales grew significantly.

    The Civic was a runaway winner when the FD was launched, but not because it was a 1.8. Rather, because it was a Honda that was a class leader in most other aspects as well.

    But with the FB, which is a subpar car vis-a-vis the competition, its 1.8L engine isn't exactly an advantage over its 1.6 contemporaries.

    The 1.8 was upgraded to 2.0, get that one. The trend seems to be to build smaller engines for fuel efficiency.

    just saw the new altis today 1.6 g and v. interior looks okay. i feel that the windshield is cramped due to the placing of the rear view mirror...

    overall, angas nya. =)

    haven't been inside an elantra, heck i haven't been inside any late model hyundai vehicle except for the taxi accent sedan. haha! my opinion is the elantra's design is fit for this generation, i think it wont age good.

    Hi, first-time poster.

    I've also been considering these two models for my first buy since I have a budget of about 900k-910k only. I was seriously considering the 2013 Elantra (GL A/T) before, but then the 2014 models came along and nagulat lang ako na driver airbag lang daw ang E na Elantra for both MT and AT given their price (the 2013 GL A/T already had driver and passenger airbags).

    I know the Altis is the clear winner in this thread and am now favoring this heavily against the 2014 Elantra in the 850k-900k price range. Just want to know of the selling points that could lift up the Elantra over the Altis in this case. If there are any, hope you could help out.

    Thanks.

    As promised, I'll post what ever info I have on the Altis. Just got my grey 1.6G automatic today.

    Got the car for 176,000 all in Cash out. Including insurance and chattel mortage. 18k/mon for 5years

    The dashboard is beautiful and you have a lot of options on the info you want to see. Which is very nice.
    The interior again, I love it and it handles better than the altis of 2010-2013.

    Got no discounts since it's new. Was able to leapfrog other buyers though because madame na kame kinuha na toyota dun sa agent over the years. So even though I had my own bank, inuna paren kame bigyan kaysa sa mga nag inhouse financing.

    Overall a very good car. Can't say much for the efficiency yet...22KM pa lang Odo ng new baby ko eh, hahahahaha

    But again, this is a very great car. ou still have the comfort of an altis but this time when you look at it, may angas na sya.

    Grey mettalic color is hands down the best second to pearl white..
