**squatt3r** · March 9th, 2006 09:20 PM

kasya po ba yung 350K na budget para sa Gen1 CRV? or dapat bang gumawa ako ng another thread para sa 400K-450K?

di pa ata...kailangan pa ng konting karinyo

siguradong malwag sa cargo space ung mga wagons/ cSUVs.....pajero 2-door kaya?mahal na ang 5-door pajeros,e...(unless siguro ung box-type)

hehehe balik tayo sa oto. mahal pala mga cSUV.

lets say stretched to 500k yung budget kaya na kaya yung gen1 CRV?

wow!!:D andami nagpost!hehe thanks sa lahat..keep on posting by the way..

pinipillit ng dad ko na kumuha ako ng executive car..kaso yun nga medyo malabo sa budget..closest is the 1999 accord..

parang gusto ko na nga rin yung 2000 civic VTi..

may nakita ako mga nsa 320k ata..mas roomy ba ito kesa sa lancer MX at corolla Gli?

sulit ba ang nissan exalta STA or grandeur..nakita ko sa ads 2003 model nsa 365k lang..any thoughts on this guys??parang sulit yung mga sentra..ANG MURA!!hehe pero ok ba performance nito???

thanks ulit in advance..:D

kaya na yun...depende nalang sa laman...alam ko ung last models ng gen 1 crv (limited nilang may factory tv/vcd on board)aabot ng 400-500k, ung gen.1 vitara, pasok ata sa 350K budget, gen. 1 rav 4, 2-door, pasok din ata, but ung 4-door, malamang hindi na...pero fuel efficiency isang habol nya...kaya baka ma-rule out mga ito... HR-V, un nga lang mahal pa siya talaga, at bibihira ang nakikita kong binebenta, mga 450-500K..un 1600 non-vtec light-weight cSUV..manual lang dumating dito, puro 4-door.

used nissans are usually a good bargain dahil mababa ang resale value for some unknown (to me) reason.

03 exalta would be nice enough, although it won't be as spacious as a camry.
more often than not, maganda ang aircon, so at least comfortable ka.

only negative ive experienced with nissans is there is always something rattling, kahit bago. (counter mo na lang with a good sound system)

for me, its a compact "executive car"...amongs sa big japanese car brand, i bet eto ang makukuhang mong latest and most accessorized units from factory...

ung series 3 exalta sta(last of the series 3s) kumpleto na hahanapin mo sa excecutive car...pero 1.6L lang engine nito...all-leather interior,sunroof,a a factory handsfree dock for your 71xx/62xx nokia celphone, 12-disc jvc system..basta dami nya extras...ok naman sentra,e...and talaga, as a nissan owner, malakas ang aircon...

ung 1st batch ng series 4(grandeur-exaltas) has sunroof, lether,HUD(heads-up display for park sensor distance?, dont know kung pati ung speed... has a factory tv/vcd system...and the cold aircon to boot(kung maayos at original a/c system pa ha)

ang downside nito, sa dami ng electronics, baka may isang sira, sayang naman..and only comes in 4-speed automatic....

pero, advantage ang nissan kapag used na...it doesent mean naman pangit ung car dahil mababa ang resale value nya...

With that money, i'd buy a very early BMW E36 or a later year E30. I know it doesnt fit your qualifications but maybe you'd like to look at an E36 and see how it compares with a 99 Accord, Cefiro, or Camry. Tipid pa sa gas ito.

yung nissan pala na nakita ko is 1.3L lang..

may nkita ko 2000 civic VTi for 330 (neg)..74t kms, all stock at may minor scratches daw..

titignan ko ngayong weekend yung tsikot..hehe

sa tingin nyo good deal na kaya to??ala naman daw ibang sira..well chechek pa namin..

ei guys thanks sa opinions ha..

mukhang malabo na ang executive car ngayon...kaya gawin na lang natin na
"What's the best compact sedan within 300-350.." :D

ang lancer MX ba ay top of the line ng lancer?bukod sa Evo ah..haha

ok rin kaya to compared sa civic vti or higher year na nissan???

Suggest ko wag ka magmadali sa purchase, check different local car forums out, minsan may good deals sa tsikot classifieds, hondaclub selling forums etc...
