Please help me and my father to decide

[patrickskid]

Ayaw po kasi ng dad ko ng elantra, masyado daw pong pang professional para sa isang student. Then gusto kasi nya low monthly, kasi nakita nya ung sa kapatid ko na fiesta ung 99k dp and 13-15 monthly note a/t po ang fiesta nya.

Nearly 6" flat po ako. So ano po sa tingin nyo pasok sa requirements ng dad ko.
TIA

[mda]

Since ayaw niya ng Elantra, mukhang subcompact din gusto niya.

Pili ka nalang between the Vios, Jazz, City, Yaris, (Accent - wag muna may problema to sa makina), Fiesta (meron na kapatid mo).

Walang problema ang 6" DRIVER para sa subcompact. Pero makakawawa yung mga nasa likod. Since student ka, mukhang mag isa ka lang naman most of the time. Tamang tama na rin.

Well, di namin kabisado ano pa requirements ng mo/dad mo so mahirap mag recommend ng specific model/variant. Tulungan mo rin kami kasi kakaunti lang binanggit mo hehe.

Pagdating sa trunk space, generally walang problema sa mga subcompact. Ang lalalim ng mga trunk nun, minsan kaya pa bangkay haha.

#4 - walang problema. Wala na yatang bagong kotse nahihirapan umakyat ng tagaytay e.

Hmm... Based on #1 and #2, the initial shortlist would be

1.3L Ford Fiesta
1.3L Mazda 2 Hatch/Sedan
1.3L Vios
1.5L Yaris

Baka pwede yung Hyundai i10 o yung Suzuki Celerio/Swift.

Kung gusto mong maging proactive, tumawag ka sa mga bangko/branch/consumer loans division tapos itanong magkano yung minimum DP para sa bagong kotse.

Usually kasi, 20% minimum DP ang mga bangko so tiyak na lalagpas sa 100K DP.

Yung mangyayari naman, sa in-house financing ka babagsak. Usually doon naman mataas ang interes.

Depende talaga. Personally, hindi ko gusto ang low DP, low monthly.

Dahilan? Low DP, Low monthly = High term, high interest rate. Kung kaya nyo naman bayaran, ibayad nyo na. Lalo yung mga 5 years to pay. Once you have the rates the bank/financing is offering, you can do the math and compute which is the best deal for your family.

Med student ka naman ah. Why is the Elantra "too professional" for you? Di kaya "too good for you"? If you were looking at the Elantra before, then I suppose the budget is more or less at 800k? I suggest you check out the top of the line Accent 1.6GLS Blue instead. There are no issues with this one, you get lots of standard equipment, and it doesn't look "too professional". Not to mention that this car is very spacious, spacious to the point of rivaling the Honda City.

Go for mazda 6!! Haha dami mo chicks makukuha nun... Ahhhhh memories wahahaha

[jhnkvn]

BI talaga ito si Chunky Di bale, I'm currently at that stage *kisses my Sonata* :naughty2: hahaha!

I dunno how can an Elantro look "professional".. pano na kaya yun saakin ede "playboy" look na ba? :D Personally, I think that attribute is good once you graduate from school. Get a white Elantra, mod it a bit, wear your suit or a tux and you'd look damn good just alighting the car.

For other options, since meron na kayo Fiesta. I'd recommend the class-leader here -- Honda Jazz. As a student, I think you'll have that urge to modify your own car once you have the funds... you won't have a problem in that department, I assure you.

I recommend the Jazz but may not fit your criteria of low DP. Honda almost never sell their units below 20% DP. The Elantra to me does not look too professional, it looks like a vehicle for college students and young people ( just right for you) Now this you can get for a low DP. I don't like the Accent though I would rather get the Vios over it.

his *tuuuuut* hahaha... kailangan daw spacious... baka daw kc tumama sa manubela wahahahahahahahaha )

[F-14]

6"?
Head up, or head on the middle? (smiley)

Fiesta is a good choice also even it will become a twin for your brother. Also in the long run, you can share same good things or bad things to your car because of its similarity.

Fiesta is more on looks & performance suited for most of the boys & gentlemen like us!

[nyoobi]

Puwede din Jazz. If you want to consider this or better yet get the Toyota Altis G. Bagay sa height na 6'.

[patrickskid]

Tnx ng Marami sa mga nag comment..
Sorry sa" typo e.

Kahit di na po ung looks. Basta po swak sa dp and low monthly. And also po sa space..





Add ko Lang po.basta low monthly daw po kahit 100k-150k daw po monthly

[mad_max168]

Length or height?

[erj22]

I have an officemate who is 6' 1" and he's driving Jazz 2nd gen.

[Titleist983k]

Head room would not be a problem for the Jazz.

[Ry_Tower]

Head room would not be a problem for the Jazz.

Sa city ba ok din kahit 6ftr?

[Titleist983k]

Sa city ba ok din kahit 6ftr?

I would think so, headroom is not usually a problem for sedans/sub compacts except for those really small ones (Swift, i can't fit in it, lol). I find more SUV's and Trucks with lower headroom's than sedans. For comparison, when I drive a D-Max, eye level is already at the top of the windshield, this is the same when I drive the Patrol. For the Jazz, eye level is still mid windshield level. Noted that for all vehicles I always set the seats at lowest position because I have big legs.
