    i owned a toyota altis 03 model but i like to upgrade to newer model. First reason, simply like to have newer and updated car.

    2nd reason, fuel consumption. With my altis, i have about 9km per liter. Gusto ko talaga maka tipid sa gas ngayon. Tipong 16km per liter.

    Now, downgrading my vehicle's size from altis to:

    1. picanto 2010
    2. vios 2007-08 (batman look)
    3. honda city 2007-08

    With the value of my car about 250-350k, above cars are my options. What do you think guys?

    actually, 3rd reason, my gf broke with me and i like to rid memories. Diba, with new car, new life din hehe
    1. Newer can be more updated, but not necessarily more reliable (lalo kung 2nd hand). Yung 03 Altis mo, assuming it's well maintained can give you years of worry-free driving than let's say a 2008 Vios na never nagpa maintenance.

    2. 16KM per liter? You may want to be looking at an Alto. The Vios and the City will never return that kind of fuel economy when your Altis on your normal route gives you 9KM/L.

    3. I suggest to keep the car and your money assuming you've kept it in good condition.

    4. Kapag new car pero new headaches - wag nalang. Bagong cellphone nalang o tablet para mawala yung ex memories hehe.

    Suggest ko TS (if your Vios is well maintained and wala problema) Change color na lang and modify a little para new look and new life too! Congrats on your freedom!

Please help....Upgrading to newer model but downgrading the vehicle
