    i had that dilemma before, picked the exalta for its creature comforts (sunroof, all leather, all power, etc) & "baby BMW" look...found the rollas & civics in the same price range too bare....very happy w/ my decision....

    you got the SLA or STA? I read thru the forums here and haven't found
    any horror stories about the Exalta -- so, I guess it's a good buy too. how about fuel consumption and availability of parts?

    Kung bukid ka maybe you should get a 4x4, like a Feroza. I was thinking about restoring mine. You could get one from 100k to 150k in pretty good condition nowadays, and if you spend another 150k on it it'll be better than brand new! Big tires, new rims, and the important stuff like suspension, replace all belts, battery. Plus when the rain starts to pour and the mud gets in the way, you can barrel your way through just about anything.

    Basic rule sa pinas, kung first car tapos limited budget, stick to 1.6li cars between 95-99 hehe.

    assuming the condition of the car is generally good, you'll have an efficient, easy to maintain, easy to re-sell car.

    I agree with you entirely....with the baby coming, I will be in a very tight budget. I might as well consider getting a Lancer Glxi also (any thoughts?). I never thought
    mahirap pala magdecide bumili ng car lalo na pag limited budget at pinaghirapan mo ng husto ang pag-iipon hehe.

    ganun talaga you want the best value for your money lalo na pag car ang paggagastosan

    goodluck and just be patient you might stumble upon na tulad namin na nakabenta ng mura and good condition yung cars

    before you buy have it test driven and if you're not sure then dont buy it mahirap na

    buy from lady drivers, mas maingat magdrive... i think

    Lancer GLXi na lang hehe

    What year ba? Kasi ang itlog ('92-'95) GLXi around 200k na lang ang bentahan. Yung mga pizza ('95-2001(?)) around 300k pa sa ngayon.

    Repairs so far on my itlog.
    Top overhaul - my fault. Di ko kasi nasilip ng maigi ang makina. May leak na pala head gasket

    Minor suspension repairs - Zee or Cruven pwede na

    Aircon - system cleaned and recharged. Di na orig ang compressor so had to convert it to 134a.

    Power windows - pagawa ko sa Evangelista bukas

    New tires - 185/70 Bridgestone ER60s for my stock 13" rims.

    Servo cleaning and adjustment, starter relay, busted fuses, etc.

    Total gastos so far less than 30k. 1.5 years na sa amin 'to and I have no complaints

    yeah, in my case, it took me 3 months to decide on a car. i learned a lot about cars in that time. learned even more when i had the car tuned up.

    as a buyer, you have every right to scrutinize every nook and cranny of the vehicle to suit your satisfaction. if for whatever reason you are not comfortable with it, regardless if it is in top condition, do not get pressured into buying it.

    i checked out corollas and sentras. but for some reason, most of the cars that i viewed that were well cared for by their owners were sentras.
