September 2nd, 2011 11:09 PM #2if you are refering to the larger familia and not the first, smaller one, i'd remove it from your choices. experts say its powertrain gearing isn't designed for frugality but for sporting performance.

September 3rd, 2011 02:23 AM #3Since you are looking for fuel efficiency AND power, carburetors are off the list which means no XE. Mazda 323 gives bad gas mileage which means its off the list too. So we're left with the Sentra and the Lancer. And then again, the Sentra is cheaper and newer than the Lancer so you can buy newer units for a lesser price. So there's my suggestion for you. Get the Super Saloon variant and not the EX Saloon for more equipment and the 1.6L engine.
Here are some examples you can consider:
1996 NISSAN SENTRA SUPER SALOON ALL POWER Philippines - 4075327
Nissan Sentra Super Saloon NEGOTIABLE! 1996 Philippines - 3917339
Nissan Sentra Super Saloon Philippines - 3553121
NISSAN SENTRA SUPER SALOON SERIES 3 A/T 1.6 Philippines - 4016263
