Fresh from TGP:

Kia Optima
2.4-liter model with a six-speed, paddle-shift-equipped automatic gearbox that'll come with 18-inch alloy wheels, leather seats, dual airbags, fully automatic air-conditioning system, keyless entry, engine start/stop button, and panoramic sunroof

P1.48 million

Malaki rin ba discount for the ASX? IIRC, the Lancer EX has a discount of over 100k right?

Grabe ang mura nung Optima. Kia is pricing everything so competitively this year. First, the Rio. Second, the Sorento LX. Then, the Sportage EX CRDi. Now, this.

Going back, I'd pick the Impreza. Then the TDCi. Then the EX GTA.

After all, the first one is still an Impreza. Iba pa rin dating niyan kahit 2.0R, dress it up... game over na. ;)

Pwede rin yung TDCi, insanely fast and has good fuel economy. GTA because it looks good, in blue.

Hindi ko MUNA ibibigay.

Lately kasi nahirapan ako sa traffic. Medyo naiinis ako kasi hindi ako lagi nakakasingit. Hehehe

Anyway, hindi ko i ddress up ang mga naipili ko na cars. I love keeping them on stock.

What do you mean bro?

Styling not as aggressive as before.
Detuned Engine. CVT Transmission.

Still 4wd though.

Kailangan talaga bihisan yung Impreza 2.0R. Lalo na performance.

Baka kasi sibakin lang yan ng Focus TDCi. Haha!

150hp normally aspirated engine + full time AWD + 4 speed A/T results to poor gas mileage and uninspiring straight line performance. If the new one comes with CVT, gas mileage may improve but then that would drastically reduce the performance potential. I can almost visualize this being outdragged by one of them Accent CRDi cabs.

Speaking of dressed up Impreza 2.0R's, merong nakaganyan samin, malinis yung itsura - gold multi-spoke rims, fair enough drop, carbon fiber hood, pearl white.

The clincher? May hood scoop, wala namang turbo

Personally di ko feel yung Impreza 2.0, unless MT siguro. But then again, if I wanted a rally-inspired car, there's the better packaged Lancer EX.

Focus 2.0 TDCi pa rin though, or Mazda 3 2.0R, naaaliw talaga ko sa kotseng yun
