Lynx or Civic or Jazz or Others

The Lynx matic is pretty bad... though I don't have firsthand numbers, some people get dismal numbers, around 6 km/l or so... but some people also get dismal numbers with the 323.

As to whether it's quieter than the Lancer... I don't think so. The road noise on the Lynx is actually pretty bad... but it depends on the tires. Medyo de-lata yung sound ng doors, din. It's a wonderful car to drive, but if you're looking for quiet, you might want to look elsewhere. Still... it's a good car, despite the lack of wheel-well insulation.

The Avanza? Foam and rubber lang katapat nun...

Hahaha... oo nga. DIY tip lang, yung sa akin small plastic hose (yung gamit sa aquarium oxygen) at masking tape lang katapat nyan Niky, try nyo. Balutin nyo lang yung kinakapitan ng lock ng pinto, pero wag makapal. Parang magiging tunog Civic or Corolla ang bagsak ng pinto nyo.

try mo niky, every once in a while matatanggal sya or ninipis yung part ng tape na laging natatamaan. pero try it for yourself. mag-iimprove yung tunog. nanghihinayang kasi ako pag nakakakita ako ng magandang lynx ghia or rs, ganda ganda tapos sara ng pinto.

*toinks*

ngetpa!!! hehehe

talaga? pakakapalin lang yung kinakapitan ng lock ng pinto? yung bakal na ganito ang shape --> |_|

yep, actually hindi naman yung kapal eh. iwasan mo lang magbakal sa bakal para hindi tunog lata. kaya gagamit ka ng hose tapos babalutin mo ng tape para malambot lambot yung tunog parang Corolla o Civic. Ganyan din ginagawa ko sa Adventure ko. Try mo sa Advie mo lalo kung gen1 Advie sayo tulad sa akin by this time panget na din ang tunog ng pinto mo by now.

Gen2, pero ok naman lahat ng side doors. yung likod nga lang hahaha kapag sinasara tumutunog lata bukod sa tumutunog pa yung plaka at plate cover.

Gawin ko ito sa Alto ko, tingnan ko kung gumanda ang tunog ng pagsara hehe

Back po sa regular programming.. hehe.. if a Honda City 2006 M/T is included among the option would you say it is a much better choice than my 1st three options considering the price, reliability and FC?

sorry naging OT. Back to the topic, a Honda City 2006 M/T is a very good choice. You shouldn't have any major problems, all you need to take care is it's regular maintenance (change oil/tune-up).

If you have to choose between 2005 1.3 Jazz and 2006 1.5 City, what will be your choice? Both are M/T, casa maintained, very good condition and priced at 400K.
