    get a corolla GLi big body or lovelife(160k atleast?). its efi, maintenance wise, all power and very fuel efficient. keep it stock. mags and sounds are enough. thus porma does not make you faster than everybody else. estudyante ka diba? pinagdaanan ko yan.

    get a clean and unequipped one, kaw na lang magset-up para alam mo

    trust me, im also a student, still

    welcome sa tsikot

    Get the Corolla tama sila Gli hanapin mo. Wag kang mag Galant ga-ihi yata ang consume ng gasolina nito uhaw na uhaw lagi.

    As much as possible mas maganda kung all stock mahanap mo. Pero parang kulang ang 120K dagdag ka pa ng konti pero since yun ang budget mo maghanap hanap ka rin baka maka tiyempo ka.

    Ganyan na ganyan ako wayback 2005 rush ako naghanap ng car na second hand ( corolla bigbody XE GLi, lancer itlog, pizza, singkit) para habol sa graduation pero ang nangyari pinangdown na lang namin yung 100k sa Adventure at ito pa rin gamit ko up to now. Ma maintenance ang old car kaya after getting the 120K car magready kana ng pang maintenance like change all fluids oil filter, fuel filter.... also change all the belts, kasama na timing belt set at waterpump.

    I would go for the 90's corolla GL. I had one way back then, a very reliable car. Timeless ang porma (IMO). Clear tints lang and a nice set of 15's would do. Sakto yan sa budget mo na 100k. I suggest naman na yung 20k na sobra para pagpapagawa ng mga slight mechanical defects instead of upholstery or setting up the sound system. It's better to drive a worry free car than a aesthetically good looking car that rattles or bugs down every now and then.

    or increase your budget furthermore, and get a 9th gen altis which is younger than the previous gens. though there are sludging issues on the 1.6 engine.

    just prepare a more or less 50k for repairs and maintenance of whatever car you're getting.

    Kung student at purpose mo pamasok , matipid sa gasolina , reliable , mura piyesa at madaling gawin ayos na iyong toyota na GL para sa iyo o Big body . Pang harabas kaya nga ginagawang taxi dahil matibay makina ng 2E.

    Ano ba guys, 120K nga lang daw eh including repairs.

    *TS : I`d get the Corolla AE92 XE. It`ll be appropriate for you, as a student. But it being 2 decade old already, I guess you have to put your porma plans aside first because I tell you 20K may be or may not be enough for repairs ONLY.

    Basically, that's it. Unless you want to opt for smaller ones such as Fiat Uno's, Kia Prides which is definitely cheaper but still can be full of repairs. ;)
