    I want to buy a second hand car. I have a budget of 250K. Can I get a Honda Civic 1998 up? Or any suggestions (toyota or mitsubishi) that can fit my budget?

    Welcome braveheart14!

    I think your budget will fit for an LXI or even VTI model. Sa buy and sell kasi, medyo mataas ang price, but you can check them out to get some ideas. You may also try a Toyota Corolla but if you really want a Civic, get the VTI.

    It's better if you will buy the car from someone you know. Just a piece of advice, don't rush sa pagbili para makapamili ka ng mas maganda o kaya mas mura.

    Try checking here at tsikot sa Car Finder or sa http://autolink.ph.

    Good luck!

    AFAIK, you can get a VTi for that much, with good bargaining skills. Good luck!

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    The main difference is in four letters: VTEC.

    Yung VTI, all power sya. Power windows, side mirror, antenna, etc... at yung significant difference is the engine. 1.5 LXI, 1.6 VTI (VTEC), mas maganda at mas malakas engine ng VTI because of VTEC.

    In terms of price, mas mahal ng kaunti ang VTI pero sulit naman.

    Pasensya na di ako techie sa kotse, but here's a link to explain VTEC of Honda.

    Nice choice. Just take time to check not only the car itself but its background too. Then set aside enough funds to install a good anti-theft device like one of those with remote engine kills.

    If you will get a Civic, dapat VTi. Talagang noticeable ang performance difference despite only .1-liter larger than the LXi. Iba palo ng VTEC.

    Yun nga lang, meron din itong problema.

    - Hindi pwedeng i-camber ang harap, sabay negative ang fixed camber niya kaya hindi papantay ang wear ng goma

    - Sirain ang power locks

    - Kanang headlight madalas napapasukan ng moisture (esp. 96-98 model)

    Sa performance, talagang the best ang VTi. Kung sa maintenance, mas konting sakit ng ulo tsaka mas mura ang Corolla GLi.

    Tinitingnan ko rin ang TOYOTA model. Kaya lang parang walang porma ang dating ng TOYOTA. Kaya HONDA sana ang gusto ko. Eh kung yung NISSAN at MITSUBISHI kaya? Ok ba yun?

    Kanya-kanya lang naman ang taste sa porma eh. Nissan, makakabili ka ng dalawang Sentra B13 Super Saloon sa pera mo! Hindi naman daw walang kwenta gaya ng inaakala, hindi nga lang din kasing-ganda ng Civic o Corolla. Lancer naman may mga problema daw ang karamihan; magtanong-tanong ka na lang.

    With a 250K you can get a Civic VTI but either a '96 or 97 model.
