anong year or model na civic?

siguro yun 93-96? basta yun kasabayan ng series 3 96-98

[[archie]]

kung kasabayan ng series 3... yun yung ek 96-98.

i can only comment for the ek since i used to own one.

resale value around 160k - 200k (depends sa condition and the add ons)

review:
fuel consumption around 9-10km/l city driving and 15km/l long drive. (LXi)

exterior, mas ok yung civic 99 - 2000 than the 96-98. still nice and maporma para sakin

interior, medyo matigas seats compared sa corolla. more leg room than the big body.

maintenance: barya yung pyesa niya. very abundant. easy to maintain. if your buying at this time, marami na kailangan palitan and abangan. like timing belt, fan belts, clutch (kung manual). abangan alternator, compressor, hoses (lalo na power steering).

usual na sira... power window, kalawang sa may shock mount, bulbs of the hazard switch napupundi.

overall: a very dependable car. very minor lang yung mga usual na sira.

wow. thanks sa info sir... wala nga ko mahanap na around 130k eh kasi hanggang dun lang budget ko. pero may nag alok sakin last week pero nakuha na yata bigay daw nya sakin 115k 93 LX ata yun. pero napaisip din ako.. sa tingin ko nga sentra na bagsak ko pero ok lang din sakin. around 130k good condition na yun mga nakikita ko eh. and sabi ng iba ok din daw mga pyesa ng sentra series 3.

93 LX? that the previous civic yung eg body.

if the price range is at 130k below, the civic that you can buy is the esi (93-95). meron mga 110k nito and efi na. mas maliit sa ek 96-98 pero ok naman. easy parts din.

look into the esi model if i were you, madami diyan na sariwa. ok din series 3 ng nissan naman. honda fanboi lang ako.

hehe..

ang hirap maghanap ngayon sa internet eh.. sa ayosdito and sa sulit lang ako nag hahanap.
and presyuhan dito sa internet ng esi nasa 160-200 pa halos. taas. hehe. buti pa sentra baba ng resale value

Anong Civic yun kalawangin? Yun nagbububbles yun bubong... Kung ano man yun...wag yun ang bilhin mo.

[krinkx]

EG yung kalawangin ang bubong... pero medyo ganun din EK... pero di gaano... i still have my EK pero di ko na gaano ginagamit, si misis na lang... pero sobrang tipid... ok din sentra, i've had a b14 before na super saloon... mas mura siya kesa civic, pabor sa buyers, ok din ang performance...

IMO, 95 Civic ESi is still around the 150k - 170k range depending on the condition. There are rare sellers who ask for 150k below. That's for the ESi ha..

But if you only want the looks of the EG, you can have the LX type, that's carb though..

For a 130k budget, maybe you can get a 93 - 94 LX.

If I were you, I'd get a B13/B14 Sentra. That is if you can't stretch your budget.

BTW, not all EGs have rust forming on the roof, luckily mine is still rust free.. hope it stays that way.. hehe!

Just my 2 centavos worth..
