Locally available sports cars

[niky]

STi? Last I saw, mga 2.5 million, pre-EVAT. Maybe close to 3m now. Dunno what it'll cost at the official dealership, though, and whether the dealership that was offering them before is still carrying them.

2ndhand RSXs are around 1.5. Those are a great choice.

[wren]

just wait for the WRX.

[basti08]

Yup, wait for Mazda MX-5 and probably the Civic Si (4door nga lang) to arrive.

the civic si only has two doors.

There is word that a sedan version will be made available by next year in the US.

And take note, basti, we are not confirmed to receive anything higher than the base 2.0... not just yet.

yeah, not just yet... M2 yes, i know about the 2door USDM Si but knowing Honda, if ever it gets here...its gonna be 4doors and SiR in badge.

e.g back in 1999-2000 USDM had EK Si 2door coupe and RP at the same had the SiR.

Not personally, but there are a lot in the Morato area (1 by Hotshots, 1 near Burger King, 1 past Quezon Avenue, southbound on EDSA). Just remember to check everything carefully. If you're going for secondhand Honda/Acuras, best to get one in original LHD and with a complete service record.

Also, research the running costs for the vehicle you're planning on buying. An RSX, for example, would cost less to maintain than an EVO, but parts for the transmission may be harder to source.

Sir apostle, dagdag lang u 800k and forget the 2 doors may evo 8 na u.

[Altis6453]

At that price range, I'd go for a certified pre-owned BMW 3 Series M Sport. Or, if you can find a CPO Audi Quattro.

[alwayz_yummy]

ask ko lang,iba ang rsx sa nsx, right?

noon sa timog area, tapat ng BK, nakita ko 300zx TT! nsx din...basta isa un sa mga dealer doon, sa may katabi ng shell after ng rotonda(comming from BK) along timog, meron din doon.

i don't think you can get a brand new sports car for 2M .. your best bet is 2nd hand ..

[pixelparadigm]

ditto... MX-5. A no-frills sports car.

But with P2M, perhaps you could ask Ford to deliver here a european Ford Focus ST. It doesn't scream "I'm a sports car", but definitely it's more nice to be humble and at the same time winning races and having much fun on a hot hatch.

may nakita akong nissan 350z. kasya kaya 2m don? kung hindi integra type r, evo, sti na 2nd hand. may nakasabay din akong celica, ung bago.

[niky]

350Z? Secondhand maybe, or gray market (heard they're around 2.5 if imported), but not brand new (3.5m).

A brand new Focus ST, if you were to have Ford import it, would probably cost around 2.5 million also. Maybe it'd slide in under 2m if it's a personal import.

Sana nga around 1.5 million yung MX-5, but I doubt they'll bring it here.

hyundai coupe v6

[basti08]

OT: my dad saw a red 2006 Mazda Miata in NLEX last Saturday.... he said it has no badges just a Mazda logo...looks like a Viper in person daw yung harap.

[ale828]

you can get kit cars for that price. i know there are builders of AC Cobra, Lotus 7, etc kit cars here in the phil and they are priced below 2M. if you plan to join the manila sports car club, they have a strict criteria when it comes to what they consider a sports car.
second hand cars are another bet to find a good sports car. Westfield has a distributer here in paranaque.

[Bry]

Right now, your only option is the Coupe. Unless you want to go to the gray market dealers.

And correction lang to the other guy, I think I saw a banner outside the BMW dealer in Libis stating that the Z4 can now be had for 2.9M.

[orly_andico]

magkano ba yung RX8?
decent na yun!

yun nga lang full synth oil change every 1000km. oil change every 2 full tanks.
