If the Altis 1.8Vs condition is great, then I'd get it. Get the grey one if you can.
If you're doubtful about its condition, and have zero idea on how its maintenance regimen was then I'd go with the [possibly] less exciting but hassle-free brand new 1.6V Altis.

June 30th, 2012 09:31 AM #13The 1.6V would be a better choice for me especially if you plan on staying for at least 5 years with your company. Brand new feeling, less headaches. I don't think you'll even notice the difference of 1.8 and 1.6 in MM traffic.

June 30th, 2012 10:57 AM #14We have a family friend who has a charcoal grey 2009 Altis 1.8V. Very nice car. It mimics a midsize sedan quite well. Ride is very comfortable indeed. Interior materials are of high quality too. Even if the transmission is also a 4 speed A/T like the 1.6, this one has manual shift override for more spirited driving.

Sorry, but im not familiar with the term TOTL...
Sir, both cars can be purchased at around 15-25% from original purchase cost...so option 1 at that rate but by 2014, and option at that rate by 2017.
I actually thought of the same thing (re-selling it) as I did with my previous car from another company (honda city 1.3 AT), however, a friend of time said that the 1.8L would be more difficult to sell after two years (even though mileage as i compute it will be around 60-65k in two years) and so he advised me to get the newer one instead..
in both options, all maintenance, insurance, tire replacement, gasoline expenses for the car will be shouldered by the company.

15-25%... that's 80-150k for the 1.8, could maybe resell at 250-300k... 150-200k for the 1.6, could maybe sell for 300-400k... Both good deals...
From an economic point of view, whether you keep or sell, the 1.6 makes more sense. Especially since the company will shoulder expenses for three extra years...

I dont know if it's just me, but I seem to have observed that in the long run, middle variants tends to be faster sell and has better resale than top line models.
But I'll go option A for the reason that after 2 years for sure madaming magagandang oto na lalabas, come the time you are about to sell the Altis. Then you can secure a better brand new car.
My thoughts: Resale value is really about perception, and right now the perception is that a...
