Go for the newer car. Pero siempre compare the conditions.

Sentra!

Pero may mali yata sa specs mo. Kung 97 LEC, dapat power streering lang yan. Hindi stock ang power windows yan and walang power door locks. Not unless it was upgraded by the owner.

One thing against the Toyota is that it's a 16-year old car. At hindi rin stock ang power windows at door locks nyan.

the seller specifically noted na power windows daw po.

Power window and Centralized locking with alarm.

sa LEC ako.

LEC PS. . . no brainer.

I used to own one and it was a very reliable car. Had not much problems as long as it was maintained properly.

I also outfitted it with central locking. Back then, there were a lot of stores that did conversion of LEC PS to power windows, which requires to change the inside door panels which they would get from the ECCS versions.

Just check the condition and make sure that the car is not an ex-taxi.

another thing against the Toyota is that, naka timing belt siya unlike the Nissan which has timing chains+ twin cam

what's the advantage of timing chains & twin cam over timing belt?

noob me..

[Galactus]

Mas matibay ang timing chain. Pag timing belt kasi, usually palit every 80 - 100k mileage. The chain lasts the lifetime of the car.

Twin cams naman generally generate more HP than single cams. Also, tuners can tweak more HP out of twin cam engines than SOHC's.
