it depends on what are the specs and feats you are looking for in a car...

Get a souped up Samurai and keep the change for dates, nightouts and parties

B.I. noh...hehehe

Honda City/Jazz or Toyota Vios ... Gasoline is expensive.

yeah BI ka nga nga..hahaha.... toyota camry na lang hehhehe (as if na hindi ako naging BI).....anyways, like what ghosthunter said, HONDA CITY if you want something that will not cost you much on the vehicle itself... gasoline is always a prob but it'll depend...

800k?? a used 200SX or Subaru WRX would be great... i think u can find one for less than 800k plus it looks damn better than a vios or jazz even with a full bodykit that makes it even slower.

Laki ng budget, ha. Dalawang kotse na bibilhin ko niyan may pangcoding pa ko. hehehe.

I'd prolly get a Nissan Patrol Safari GQ with that kind of money in hand.

Pwede ding itabi ko na lang ang sobra:
Suzuki Esteem '00 - P200-250T
Suzuki Jimny - P450T
Suzuki Vitara - '95-'00 - P240-P400+T
BMW E36 - P430T
Pajero '95-'98 - P550T

Daming options niyan unless brand consious ka or maarte sa sasakyan talaga.

Btw, nung 17 years old ako, '77 W123 300D na Mercedes Benz ang gamit ko. Far cheaper than your budget (around 1/7?)

800k for a brand new car?

Depends. If you're already an experienced driver, you can't go wrong with a 1.6 MT Focus (at least it won't be a guzzler like the AT), but considering the traffic around Ateneo, and the fact that you're going to be using it to commute, I'd say save the rest of the money and get a Hyundai Getz.

Don't like it? :lol: A 1.5 CVT Jazz should fit the bill then. Something you can enjoy, easy to park and drive in traffic, and something you can swap with your family any time you need a bigger vehicle. Trust me, you'll be fighting over the keys.

pocket the money nalang.

ur gonna be getting a civic to drive anyway, no point in buying another one. or you could use the 800 to mod your civic like hell.. ohhh dami daming goodies yang 800K :lol:

**ian_rex** · January 21st, 2006 06:19 PM

laki ng budget. well, how long are you driving na ba? for me i'd get the civic 99. reliable car really saka di mainit masyado sa mata.

ako nga nung 17 ako, LRT lang ang mode of transport ko e.

**chase** · January 21st, 2006 06:23 PM

nung 17 ako city type z oto ko...napalitan na lahat ng parts nuon! hood, windshield, doors, and bumpers. ang trunk nlng natira duon. tarantado kasi ako magmaneho e.

but i've learned better now. kung ako ikaw...

get the civic and give the money to your mom to buy herself a new car. :D
