Galant ba yun? I thought it was an Anventure. lol 1.2M for barely a month old? Madali ata nagsawa ang prev. owner? Seriously, if you’re a family man with kids, go for the galant. Primarily with it’s space, you can keep it for long.

Hi!
I own/drive a 1.8 variant but I hope I may be of help.
Engine Performance:
Of course, the K20 DOHC i-VTEC engine will give you higher HP and torque compared to the R18 SOHC i-VTEC engine for the 1.8.
Since you're asking for the "High End" model S-L, you get an A/T with Paddle Shifters with cruise control.
Handling
pretty much the same with the 1.8 variant.
Safety:
As was said on another thread: SRS, ABS, EBD and LSD are standard with S-L
Exterior:
1.8S variant + Side Mirror Turn Lights/Lamp and 17inch mags (sourced from EP3 )
Interior:
1.8S variant + Leather Seats + 6-disc changer
Fuel Consumption:
8-9 km/L - City/Urban
10-11 km/L - Highway
the 1.8S and the 2.0S-L almost only differs on the Engine (R18 vs. K20) and ammenities inside.
Another suggestion would be, if you have time to spare, test drive both the vehicles so you'll have an overview.
Anyway, My money still goes for the FD (hehe!). Why not include the Limited Edition 2.0S M/T carbon bronze Mettalic in your option (better value for money compared to the 2.0S-L and LM)
If you also have time to spare:
check our site, www.teamfd.com.ph where there are 2.0S-L owners that can/may assist you on your inquiry!
HTH!

August 29th, 2007 09:30 AM #13FYI, A brandnew galant is currently selling for 1.25M, SA just txt me that its available for viewing already.
OT, I'm torn between a galant, santa fe or sorento. i know its like comparing apples to oranges. but i like the galant coz there are so few of them on the road. kinda exclusive, but then, so is the Santa Fe and Sorento.

If the fuel and maintenance penalty are ok with you, go for the Galant
It's more luxurious since it's of a higher class.

You really prefer this over a 5-series E39 (which you can get for more or less 1M)?
sample pic of E39:
