July 4th, 2008 04:56 PM #21pareho tayu ng options bro..ganyan din ako vti vs. lxi. Ako nman gamit ko for work to Makati so tlagang city driving including traffic sa EDSA.
Tip ko lang.
Almost parehas lang ang FC ng vti and lxi, and keyword lang dyan eh "depende sa driver". Kahit sing tipid pa ng vios yung kotse mo kung mabigat ang tapak mo sa pedal talagang magastos yun.
If you will buy 2nd hand car, magtira ka ng extra money for repair. For sure there would be repairs kahit sabihin nung seller na "wala na ipapagawa" dyan. Of course pra mas safe ka na ok cya, pa change oil mo na rin and tune up.Check the tires and the transmission kung manual cya.
Kung 1km lang ang layu ng review school mo and normally city driving ka you can go with lxi. But if power yung hanap mo hands down ako sa VTI.
Minsan kasi nakaka-adik magpalipad ng kotse sa C5 eh ehhehehe

Wag ka nang magisip between the two mag VTi ka na. Ang pagisipan mo na lang kanino mo kukunin VTi mo? Good luck hunting for that VTi!

Vti has these little conveniences that once you get used to, you'll never look back. Small details but doesn't seem so small: central locking, power mirrors, armrest that doubles as a storage for CDs or whatnots, maplight. I mean, without the maplight what am i gonna do if i need to read something quick- Use a flashlight? Buy some ricey "type r" lights accessories at handyman?
These things can be readily remedied with surpluses * HCP, but an engine swap should make no sense...
so... get what you can afford to minimize your regrets - first and main car pa naman...
good luck tol, and hope you find a keeper that'll serve you well.

kung K&N filter lang din paguusapan, subok ko na ito on both of our car (altis 1.8 and trooper 3.0)
confirmed na ito pero may point si archie, ansarap lang talagang pakinggan ng sound pag babanatan .. 1.8 L ang altis ko and naglalaro sa 9-10 km/L ako ngayon and naka K&N open type filter ako ..
OT: arch diba dati naman naka K&N ka?

^oops. sorry if i was mistaken- i haven't seen an lxi before and i remember a discussion that mentioned it didn't have any. (just to make sure, i'm talking about the silver colored switch - central locking for opening too, hindi lang for closing...) anyway it's good if it has one.

Ricey is BADUY! So its negative It mostly refers to Asian vehicles (hence rice as its a staple food in Asia) that are over-porma to the point na baduy na or corny na...
Kung gusto mo talaga makatipid, ipaconvert mo yung car to LPG. Pero kung walang budget for LPG conversion I would just use E10 then just mind your driving habits. Yung mga gas-saver na yan walang kwenta yan puro gimmicks lang yan!
