    Hi Guys,

    Im planning to buy a 2006 vios 1.3 but im unsure what's the best buy between E and J variant.

    The main difference of the two is that the E variant is All Power, w/ MP3 player, with 14 inch mags and with keyless entry. The J variant doesn't have these features. However, the E variant is 65K higher than the J variant.

    For those who have vios j and e, hope you could help. I was just thinking if it's wise or not to settle for the E instead of J.

    Thank You!

    I'd get the E variant, the All power feature and keyless entry is a big plus...

    don't have a vios but namimili din kasi ako sa vios and city 1.3 variants.

    if budget allows for it, i'd get the 1.3e. yung comfort and upgrades are i think worth it. Yung convenience din ng power windows and doorlocks, esp pag papakabit ka ng alarm. Tsaka yung J variant walang tachometer. I like to check from time to time how much I'm revving the car.


    pero kung ang purpose mo is just to get from point A to B then ok na din yung 1.3J. no offense to any 1.3J owners parang ang 1.3J kasi eh sobrang bare.

    For me i'd go for the E variant. Steel rims lang yata ang J.

    The J variant was really meant to be used as a taxi that's why the bareness...

    Sir, the Vios E - when second hand - is good value. It has power amenities, especially with a low budget, you'll have to contend with bare variants of some vehicles. Ika nga , why would you buy something na less ang content for less??
