Maybe I'd pick the Lancer among the choices.

Actually bottom line is-- w/c car is more well maintained.. yun lang! U must also consider the paint, yung mga tipong "ay puti, madumihin, ay itim, maselan sa gasgas. Plate number din, what day ba mas ok na mag "coding"?
Simple things like that.. Pro if everythings fair, the STA will do, porma and interior pa lang eh, lalo na pagmalinis to at naka 17-18 inch rims ;) ay naku mapatay, bling bling na.. kahit no other upgrades kc di mo nman pang "rice" diba. Twins cams pa! ay kaso automatic nga pla STA, di mo pla ma-utilize. Sa MX on other hand ok din nman engine and int., pro over all it's the exalta..just remember wag magpapahawak sa mga madudumi ang kamay sa light colored interior.

im an owner of an 2000 Lancer MX which i'm currently selling now not because of any problems but because we need a bigger car(family's getting bigger).

Ok sya sa handling(m/t ung akin), may zoom zoom kahit papaano, ok ang leather seats & sidings, never had any problems sa aircon. Abundant din ang parts ng pizza. Kung MX na sportronic(tama ba?) ung MX na tinitingnan mo, ganda nyan, up down na lang ang shifting mo. My cousin nman had an exalta for 3 years pero binenta nya din kse nag migrate na sa Canada, ganda ng interior, pde matulog sa gabi hehe kaso mejo mabagal nga pag a/t as what others said, pero kung city driving lang nman, walang problema, parts are also abundant, my cousin never had any problems with the exalta, sya kse 1st owner, nung nabenta, wala din nman kaming narinig na problem sa nakabili

The 2000 STA is a really sluggish car, poorly geared AT, powerful, engine-sucking airconditioning (

), it's a much more cozy and comfortable interior, though, and a softer ride.

The MX leather, though, if it's anything like GSR leather, is a notch hardier and more classy feeling, but the Exalta really beats it in terms of kit. In terms of performance and driving, the MX wins (though it's not as good as the Civic).

Both cars are pretty old by now, and both have their own issues (IACV and airconditioner blower on the Lancer, aircon compressor and MAF on the Sentra), and as both are AT, you have to test drive and evaluate both cars very carefully before deciding which one to buy. Bring a mechanic you know to evaluate each.

Abused manual = clutch job... $$$. Neglected automatic = AT overhaul... $$$$$$$$.

DOHC na ba yung GSR...kala ko SOHC lang ito.
