New Gift

**ryan** · February 23rd, 2008 01:04 AM

Hmm...is this a car forum or about a forum about values? hehe

Anyways, going back to your topic, siguro I will tell your friend to wait for the new Accord to come out (March daw), and then compare it with the Camry, before making a decision.

ako?
i'd wait for the bar results first.
baka kasi di ako pumasa, kakahiya
naman sa peyrents ko. hehehe.

brand new for me!
unless meron kang nakalaan
na fund para pang maintenance
lang nung mga benz.

salamat sa mga reply bossing. i do concede to your points.

anyway, nagsu-suggest lang nman ako sa kaibigan.

My suggestion from your list? None. The Camry is a good car and so are the Benz but as mentioned earlier, your friend hasn't passed the bar yet. Yes, this is a car forum but we also keep a keen eye on values as we here at Tsikot.com considers everyone, including the TS as family, so we watch out for each other here.

So, as I was saying, if your friend is looking for a Euro car as a grad gift, I would suggest a BMW 525i or 530d in E34 or E39 bodies. More or less in the Php1M mark. Also, I also strongly suggest to your friend that to ask for a car AFTER passing the bar exams. He/She will feel more fulfilled as well.

Hope this helps and welcome to Tsikot.com!

cheap naman ng options ng friend mo tell him to get a motocycle muna, pag bumagsak sya sa board exam, bili na lang ya ng sidecar para pang pasada

:green with envy:

Go for euro cars na lang if budget is out of the equation. Then make sure that whatever comes with the car (read: gas, repairs, accessories, whatever) will come from self-earned money kase you won't go far in this world kung lagi lang nakasahod yung kamay :D (yan ang sabi ng tatay ko)

Parang tatay ko magbigay ng advice. Bili daw ako sentra tapos pag di ko na kayang bayaran gawin ko daw taxi.

would you go for the camry or the euro cars? my first advice was the camry.

how about the 2008 accord? salamat mga bossing.

"Friend" ba talaga o baka ikaw mismo yan?
