Honda City 1.3 or Chevrolet Optra?

[bajumbo]

Mismatch!

That's a first generation issue. He should have it brought to Chevrolet North Edsa first for evaluation before he sells it. Although some owners say there is no difference after the programming, those who are worst hit by the guzzling issue often see radical improvements.

Sinabihan ko nya siya. thanks po

And of course, any gasoline car will cost more to fuel up than a diesel AUV. :lol:

I used to think kasi na mas fuel efficient parin ang Gasoline cars not more than 1.6L compared to Auv's and Suv's.

before make any purchases try visit the dealership, look at the car, look at their brochures, ask for discount, freebies, etc... and please try test drve the cars first...

kung gusto mo lagyan ng mga burloloy doon sa honda city marami tinda nun kaysa sa optra...

bottom line, nasa iyo ang final decision...

Actually, cars are more efficient than diesel SUVs, but the 2.5 diesels have relatively similar consumption to 1.6s in traffic. And given that diesel is so cheap compared to gas, you can get up to 30-40 kilometers more off of a diesel AUV than a gas car from 500 pesos worth of fuel.

Saan Made ang Chevrolet Optra 1.6?

The Chevrolet Optra sedan and wagon that we have is made in GM's Rayong Plant in Thailand.

Tanong lang po..the Chevrolet Optra and Susuki Forenza, Daewoo Nubira are one and the same car? The difference is only the badge. Here are the pics: http://thehollywoodextra.com/Susuki/susuki.html

Bakit ganon kuya?

The strategy employed was like those with china made electronics (DVD players) of the same construction, looks and features but of different brand names. Just name the brand and you have it.

Ang comment ko lang kase parang way of deceiving buyers eh. Halimbawa di mo alam na ganun. You are in the situation of choosing between Korean and American brand..so pinili mo Chevy kasi US brand yun.. tapos Korean brand din pala yun. So just like that..deceiving yung marketing strategy. Ang point lang po dito is sometimes pricing of cars go with the brand name. So pweding sabihin.. ah mas mahal to kay sa Daewoo kasi Chevrolet-U.S. 'to. No offense lang po sa mga owner. Opinion lang po 'to.

Actually, you really just have to do your research. Like with the Ford Ranger, Focus and Lynx... people might be turned off because they're "American" and not "Japanese", when in fact, the Ranger is based on the old Mazda B-series pickup, the Lynx is based on the concurrent Mazda Protege, and the Focus shares a lot of engineering with the Mazda3.

But I don't believe in buying a car because of its "nationality". I believe in judging each car on its own merit.
