honda SiR or Honda vti vtec3(di ko sure)

[rbravo]

which do you think is much better?yung range kasi ng price nila is hindi nagkakalayo( i thin

[tr1ck5h07]

2001 model ES right?

depende kung anong gusto mo and gagawin sa car.

if you want extra hp and customizability, take an SiR.
if you want comfort and a newer model, take the VTi.

[niky]

Depends on what you want. If you want an everyday car, the newer VTi is better, but if you're looking for performance, the SiR can't be beat.

[rbravo]

i'll go for performance(speed,porma) BUT am not going to street race.what i know that the SiR had 160hp.how bout the VTEC3?

[alwayz_yummy]

145hp below

[ALPHASIGMAPHI]

ILL GO FOR HONDA SIR! STOCK RACING CHAMP!! VTI BETTER, ECONOMICAL AND TRENDY... ,

[tr1ck5h07]

2001 VTis only had around 125hp to them.

The 2.0 model bumped that up to the 150 range.

[ssaloon]

based on the poster's requirements/preference, hands down, SiR.

[Mamar]

for me i would go for the sir! maganda pormahan malakas makina, 130hp lang vtec3 eh! at matipid din naman sya sa gas eh!

[mbeige]

SiR din ako. Not a fan of the newer Vti style, and not a fan of its engine either. I heard for that model, Honda intentionally downgraded it. Is this true?

[2slow]

performance wise no doubt the SiR. Mas astig porma tapos mas ok yung suspension compred to the ES.

[flakez]

SiR, grabe hanggang ngayon pangarap ko pa rin yan. and to think, ang nasa-isip kong bilin na kotse ay SiR lang....

[Memphis Raines]

The SiR is going to be a classic. Pundits even said that its value can go up every year especially if it is in pristine condition.

You can't beat 160hp, nearly 20hp difference from the ES. Stock racing rims are also much coveted until today.

All those in favor of the SiR....:groupwave: .

[niky]

Not just 20... the previous VTi-S only had 130 hp.

SiR values are now holding steady, but they're not as expensive as before.

[tr1ck5h07]

now is a good time to buy an SiR.

finally, bumababa na rin ang resale value nya. from 400k above, now you can get one for 375k below.

Yup, more or less that was the offer for mine earlier this year. I told the lady na I'd rather keep it than weep missing it.

[thinkpad]

for me get the es more space inside tsaka hirap mg hanap ng fresh n sir ngyn.

[SNAKE V6]

SiR!!! Just take a good look/test at the engine/drivetrain though, medyo mahirap maghanap ng hindi naabusong SiR.

[jkaizer]

SiR pa rin all the way! Hirap lang maghanap ng "inalagaan" na SiR. Kung ikaw ba naman ang may-ari ng stock na ganyan pero have the guts to speed-up like that, di ba tempting lagi na humarurot kahit paminsan-minsan?

I would say, hanap ka ng medyo aged na owner ng SiR, malamang hindi masyado nagalaw yan. Opinyon lang po, at spekulasyon mula sa isang newbie tulad ko.

[niky]

Find a "lady driven" one... bwahahaha!

But seriously, it's hard to tell if one's been abused, as some buy&sell operators return them to stock trim when selling.

The best way is to test-drive, listen to the engine and feel out the suspension. If you can do a compression test on the spot (I doubt the dealer or owner would let you, though... ), that would be even more telling.
