Montero GLX non-vgt or Kia Sorento LX

**Elroi** · July 10th, 2012 09:39 PM

it's been a while & i'm here again to ask for your help guys.

i was about to purchase a Montero GLX non-vgt a/t *1.268m but heard of the Sorento LX a/t dropping it's price to 1.330m. so biglang nagulo ang isip ko..

most of the time, 2 lang kami nakasakay within the city lang ang byahe so no need for a 7-seater but it is a plus..

what will you get if you were in my shoes? i need all your inputs..

I'll get the Sorento LX. very powerful engine.
even the VGT monty can't beat that.

Honestly I get the Sorento. Gusto ko yan kaya lang over the budget ang old price. Mas nagandahan ako sa Sorento than the Montero (no offense po sa montero owners).

Ako rin.

Kung yan yung walang roof rail, black color. Ganda nyan kahit wala roof rail.

Pero kung yan na yun may roof rail + foglamps, kahit ano color

imo lang

sorento. more refined ride, better exterior and interior (IMO),more powerful engine and better fuel economy. the highest I got was 21.67 Km/L pure highway. AWD pa yan.

ill get montero, mas tatagal to kahit 10 years. AFAIK mas maraming warranty claims ang kia e. pero talagang maporma ang sorento

Montero Sport will have the advantage of higher ground clearance and more durable underchasis. Sorento will have a more refined ride and powerful engine. Not sure if the Sorento will be as durable as the Montero Sport but Mitsubishi isn't really known for their build quality.
