Newbie asking CAR SUGGESTIONS (300-400k budget)

[GTi]

Magkano benta ng VTi-S?

[renzo_d10]

^ I'd say +/-350-380k

Civic FDs, on the other hand, can go as low as 440k for the V variants. Around 460k for the 1.8S variants.

[GTi]

I mean yung unit na nahanap ni TS?

[jhonvee]

*GTi

sinong TS po?

* renzo_d10

tlga as low as 440? maayus pa nmn kya yun? and anu po pinagkaiba ng v variants sa 1.8S variants? kung 440 lng yun onting onti nlng pla tlga pwd na ko mag 8th gen na civic. kasi kya 2005 na civic napili ko dhil po sa 300-400 na range na inallow pra skin e. tpos may 440 pa pla ng 8th gen. haha. nakakabaliw. :P

[jut703]

May Mazda 3 2.0R na nga for 373k lang eh.

Mas gusto ko talaga yun kaysa sa FD 1.8S, more power (yes 141 hp vs 140 hp, but in practice the Mazda is punchier), more toys (sunroof, leather, HID, auto this and that, etc), better handling and more comfortable ride.

Mas malakas sa gas by about 0.5-1 km/L and mas masikip di hamak, so depende rin sayo.

Yeah meron. Tyaga lang. 440-450k usually laro ng 2006 na Civic FD.

Pwede rin yung suggestion ni jut, maganda rin yan.

*GTi

sinong TS po?

TS= thread starter, which in this thread is you. Magkano asking price nung 2005 Civic na nahanap mo?

With the FD, as far as I know 1.8S has ABS/EBD, front passenger airbag, foglights and bigger rims which are not present in the 1.8V. If you want fuel efficiency, I suppose the Civic VTi-S M/T would be the better choice due to the lower displacement. And difference in terms of performance is not too big.

[vefyjeph]

mazda 3 2.0! More blings and moon/sun roof... thirstier engine nga lang.

greetings to every people that might be reading this.

gusto ko po sana bumili ng kotse. and this is my first car. estudyante lang po ako and wala po alam mxdo alam sa kotse. mas ok po sana pag fuel efficient at maporma din kasi bata pa ko. hehe.

i have a 300-400k budget. any suggestion po ng kotse. and kung anu po ang advantage at disadvantage nito.

i looked the net po and i saw SiR, honda civic 2001-2005. ayang dlwa po yung ngustuhan ko yung itsura and sa ibang mga nalalaman ko khit papano.

so patulong naman po mga paps. salamat!

a lancer or an altis for me.

[halimaw]

Honda Jazz yung pinaka mataas na taon na abot budget, tipid na sa gas poging pogi pa.

Pwede din Lancer GSR Sports Coupe yung Corsica Yellow, sobra pa budget mo for a 2002 pinaka last release nya may Sub300k lang. Yung sobra bili mo 17" mags at new tires.

Civic, kesa mag SiR ka na 99-00 yung mga later models na Dimension up mas tipid pa sa gas at maporma din.

Vios bang for the buck din, fuel efficient affordable maporma at modelo.

Think of a car model na type mo then search mo sa sulit to see kung pasok sa budget.

[1D4LV]

as a rule, you have to leave at least around 50k of your budget if you are getting a second hand unit for repairs and reconditioning. since your budget is 400k, so mga nasa 300-350k lang ang pwede mo spend.

at this price, you can get a 2007-08 lancer na gls (although hindi sya maganda pormahan).

the altis is a great car..... great performance, nice looks (personal opinion - o talagang matanda na ako....hhehehe). ok ang maintenance, reasonable ang FC.

but it seems you are really fixed sa civic..... if yes, then go for it..... after all, ikaw din naman ang gagamit nyan. so personal tastes lang talaga...

[Walter]

How about an E36 BMW 320i? Goes for about 350T these days. There's even a pristine E34 525i selling for 400T.

[jut703]

^ Patayan lang sa maintenance.

Best to stick with a reliable Jap for your first car.

To TS: Kung gusto mo talaga ng Civic, may nakita akong 2007 1.8V MT, 405k lang. Bili ka nalang ng 1.8S rims (mga nasa 15k lang 'to) tapos trade in mo yung 1.8V rims mo, okay na yan.

...

the 2L mazda even auto is adequate unless you plan to race on the strip. for everyday driving, power is more than enough. you can easily do 160-180kph on the mzda 2R, car is very stable even on 190kph, yun nga lang malakas sa gas as compared to manual, but handling is great. that car really is fun to drive

[GTi]

I think what the TS is after with a manual is the better fuel efficiency and the freedom and sheer pleasure of shifting the gears himself.

Aside from the ES and FD Civics, I'd also suggest you consider the Lynx 2.0RS. There you've got a nice 2.0L engine with a manual transmission. Resale value is lower than the Honda's too.

[zap.FREEDOM]

my suggestions would be


(sample picture only)

Honda Civic 2001 - 2004 VTi-S "DIMENSION"

or

Toyota Altis ZZ 1.6 2001 -2006


(sample picture only)

both decent, good looking, easy to dress-up, maintenance (almost quite same, but the toyota spare parts are cheaper and easy to access than Honda), fuel-efficient (VTEC or VVT-I equipped , but they say the 1.8 altis is doing more efficiently than the 1.6 variant), Power (almost the same, Civic blows at top end while Altis is on the low end punch,)

test drive mo muna, parehas, but IMO, Civic drives better than the Altis, esp. it's handling, power, comfort and driver's positioning.

[Aldrinbot]

ok din ba ung matic na fd?

[henyomzky]

FD for 440k? May be yes for 2006 1.8v models. Pero siguro bro mataas na mileage and have it checked meticulously baka may hidden defects. kung iextend mo budget mo go for the fd na. Hehe! My first car is an fd nung 1st yr college pa ko and ok siya sa porma at performance lalo na sa hatak pag mt ang gamit mo. I just sold my fd 1.8s 07 for 500k in two weeks kasi kailangan na talaga ang cash for vehicle upgrade tsaka 2 vehicles lang kasya sa garahe. Wala ako naging problema sa dati kong fd. Yung battery lang ung napalitan ko dun. If only we had bigger garage d talaga ako papayag ipabenta yun.

[jhonvee]

*1D4LV

opo susundin ko yung 50k na reserve for repair or maintenance.. kaya sa 05 eagle eyes n tlga ko. hehe. salamat po sa mga veterans suggestions nyo. hehe.
