Second Hand Camry or Brand New Altis?

[Agent09]

Of course brand new altis

[carskeptic]

It all depends on your circumstances.

Aling camry ba? Pwede ba maging specific ka brad para makatulong kami at di masayang oras namin magtanong pa ulit sayo.

Ano year model ng Camry bro? Kung itong dalawa lang ang ipagpipilian, I'd go for the Camry kung 101% confirmed not flooded, low mileage pa naman at hindi ganon katanda. Midsize sedans are surprisingly sturdy. As long as it was maintained properly and driven with care, I do not expect to be replacing costly suspension and engine parts anytime soon. Our 2004 Accord V6 has had nothing but consumables replaced until it was sold early this year at 71+tkms. Our 2005 Accord 2.4 is still here and approaching 90tkms already. Same case. Very dependable car, excellent for the daily commute as long as you can look past the fuel consumption. 300+k is not a small amount of money. Assuming that you spend 5k/month on gas, that's 60k/year. 300k would be 5 years worth of gas.

And then again, if I were in this dilemma. I'd go for a high ride height diesel instead.

Reviving this thread, always wanted a camry particularly the 2007/2010 variant. I cant afford a new one and even if i do i wont get approved by the "boss" anyway. Admittedly my reasons of wanting one is primal and that i like how it looks and prior to forking out for a new sedan i was offered an good deal on a 2008 camry. Just want to ask what are the issues so far did this particular model encountered? Would it be a headache to maintain? Parts wise? Appreciate the inputs from everyone.

Usually pms lang and shocks after awhile. And battery too.

Ibang iba pa rin dating ng Camry vs Altis. Kahit '05 Camry mas sosyal pa rin sa '15 Altis. Kung kakilala mo yung seller and honest siya sa lahat ng repairs na kailangan ng kotse, I'd get the Camry.

A decade old luxury car?

My money goes with the brand new compact car.

hmmm. . .in 5 years time you might be selling a 5 year old altis or a 15 year old camry. Many may buy the then 5 year old altis. . .however baka coke at pepsi na lang bumili ng then 15 year old camry. . .

Mas respected ang Camry even the old ones basta well maintained. But a new car is a new car.

Get ready for the consumption though around 6-7.5 mixed 90 city 10 highway driving

I sold my 03 camry last year and got a new one. The altis looks good but too common and small for my taste.

There was an issue with Camry's melting dashboard before.

[jasonub]

2007-2009 iirc. It happens if you don't have a garage and park a lot in direct sunlight and with weak or no tint sa wind shield. Toyota will replace it naman for free

[jut703]

Depende yan sa tao. Basta sakin mas looker ang 2005 Camry kaysa 2010 Altis.

Likewise, a 2009 Camry will still have a more respectable presence in 5 years than a 2014 Camry. Ngayon lang naman bnew yung Altis, after a few years luma na rin yan.

Mura din ng 2009 Camry, 600-700k nalang. Mas mahal ng konti yung 2010 dahil facelifted na, but still cheaper than a bnew Altis. Yung matitipid mo sa purchase price yun yung gagastusin mo for gas and repairs. Importante lang na hindi sakit sa ulo yung unit na makuha mo so you don't spend exorbitant amounts on repairs.

If this will be your 1st car, then go for brand new.

[mortis]

Brand new altis hands down.

Cheaper spare parts, fuel consumption, less headache for maintenance.

Melting dashboard is a known issue sa Camry.
