If you had to choose between an old school Boxtype or a 1st gen (Bar or L-type) coupe which would you select for a car to play and drive around the metro in. Why?
Am contemplating between both Japanese cars for a coding vehicle.
Boxtype
1st Gen
Others like Galants, Celeste, etc

i used to own both... i prefer the box... and yes, the one that i previously owned was an 86 GT box.
The box type Lancer was selling like hot cakes during 82 to 87, sure wish they had power steering back in those days. Easy to maintain and can carry mods too.
I would choose the box type vs the l-type Lancer.
Chief, my absolute pick is the Box Type. Had one before and its so reliable and easy to maintain. By the way, my other or next pick would be the:
2. Colt Galant
3. Celeste
4. Bow Type Galant
5. Colt
(Obvious Mitsu Lover yata?)![]()
I'd get the L-type Lancer anyday. Better handling car and it's small enough to squeeze in small parking spaces. Our family had one and it was a hoot to drive.
box type yan ang sedan na sporty but if you want more retro and sporty look go for L type or bar type coupe at sa patibayan matibay ito sa lahat ng lancer.
as you can see my avatar! hehehe BOXTYPE padin hehehe thats my 2nd car...1st one is boxtype din nacarnap nga lang sa skul back in college days hehehe....i had 1.8 saturn engine 4 disc brake 84mdl boxtype...
I would surely get the box type because there are still a lot of drivers who use this type of Lancer. Probably, a lot of parts are still available for this type of model.
since kasali sa choices ang galant
na miss ko tuloy yung galant lambda ni erpat, he had this model
he bought it for 98k nung 1980 brand new, we used it for 10 years tapos nabenta ko ng 115k
aliw na aliw ako dun sa steering wheel design nya

Another nostalgia for me.
This 80s car is what the Corolla is in the early 1990s.
