December 9th, 2010 07:37 PM #22Ever thought of getting a midsized sedan? Since you're not in a hurry, you may want to save up more for a newer midsized sedan. The Cefiro is an excellent car that is still very competent today in terms of power and technology. If you change the front and rear to look like the facelifted version (multireflector headlights, horizontal grille, dual rectangular exhaust pipes, etc) it'll be perfect. Getting this will be better than getting an old Sentra and driving it will be more rewarding.
Here are some and they're selling for less than 200k:

I actually considered midsize sedans before the sentra, the 93-96 corona and the Galant MPI/GTi. I particularly like the Euro look of the corona. Sa galant naman, dami rin versions na pwede, you can go JDM or Euro. Cefiro naman, ok din looks for me, it's the maintenance and the fc which makes me choose the Corona or Galant. However, given the budget, and since I really want to set aside a portion for repairs, I considered the cheaper sentra.
Hope you could give me insights on the GTi

Keep the hilander, at least kilala mo na yung auto, kung ano man ang masira kabisado mo na ang diskarte. Just get a backup na kabisado mo rin. Mahirap kasi sa 2 secondhand, dalawa rin ang papaayos mo at pagaaralan. pag nagsabay yan it defeats the purpose dahil 2 din ang di mo magagamit.

December 10th, 2010 05:43 PM #26I recommended the Cefiro because it is the newest mid size sedan you can get with that budget aside from being the most powerful and feature packed in its class. Due to the bad resale value of Nissans, you can get a newer, well maintained Cefiro cheaper than a compact sedan of the same year. The Corona doesn't appeal to me, it works well but there's just nothing special with it. The Galant GTi may be good, but its already old, even older than the Sentra ECCS that you're looking for. Since you've had a Sentra ECCS already before, it may be nice to try something new as well.

December 11th, 2010 12:02 AM #29I'm not really sure about the diagnosing in the Cefiro. But we do have a family friend who has one. He had the pre-facelifted version (1999, I think) and facelifted it himself (change front and rear fascia) and added huge rims and a kick ass sound system along with huge subs. The result? Show car worthiness! He's had the car for more than ten years now and it he hasn't said anything but good things about that car. When the Cefiro first came out, there were some issues with it due to the loads of first generation new technology that came with it along with casas that don't know how to service it. But now that quite some time has passed, those problems have been resolved. Just remember that the Cefiro MUST take at least 95 octane gas or there will be "knocking" inside the engine. Oh, and did I mention that this car is also VERY potent in the highway.
As for the Sentra SS3, its a good and reliable car that is known for good performance and handling. But IMO if you can get yourself an executive sedan for approximately the same price as a compact sedan of the same year, which one will you pick?
