    Please forgive me if I posted in the wrong subforum.

    So a family friend is offering us a 2016 Vios 1.3E M/T for 320k, thereabouts. Is this a very good deal? Or should I look somewhere else?

    Our choice up until now was to look for '07-'09 Honda Civic for 300k and we were offered this, so I thought that a 2016 Vios 1.3E M/T at 320k is a good deal.

    Just wanted to ask here for some sanity check. Or are there better deals to be had elsewhere? Not really worried about it being 3-5 years from release date.
    Just want to have a good family car for a family of 4 for occasional commutes to and from Manila.

    The mileage is around 60k, is that still okay?

    That is approx 20k a year.
    Pinang grab? Kaya pala medyo mababa.

    Well if there are no major issues, you can prolly haggle a little bit more and get it.

    I think the car was primarily used to commute to/from Cavite and Laguna. Maybe that's the reason why it racked up 60k mileage?

    Medyo may kataasan. How good of a friend is this? Kung maaasahan mo naman na inalagaan ng mabuti and that those are mostly highway kilometers, then go ahead. See if papayag pa siya ng 300k. Hehe

    Looking at the online ads, 320k is a steal. Assuming of course that the car is in good condition and with reasonable mileage. Since family friend is the seller, lesser reservations on car condition. Small engine is also the more prudent choice given high gas prices.

    If you don't mind driving a manual daily, by all means go ahead.

    i hope the car is already under the seller's name.
    it is a bit of a hassle, if buyer will be the one who will walk the mortgage release, etc etc...
    and check it out for passenger comforts. it's a vios, not an altis...

    Looks okay naman, owner works at Toyota din kasi. Gusto lang daw magupgrade para sa family.

    Ah, so may nilabas nga. Cant remeber talaga.
    Ang bigat na nga ng vios 3rd gen dagdagan pa ng kits. Bagsak fc talaga.

    Tapos down the line problem mga kits na nahuhulog na dahil wala na yung adhesive or sumayad. Dami sa daan nyang ganyan... Hehe
