I think 260K for an Exalta is a bit high. Try looking for another Corolla, or if your budget permits, go for a Civic VTi. VTEC makes its difference to the LXi more than just .1-liter.

Had and A/T 97 Honda Lxi before mileage was already 80T+ was a nice car but be ready to replace all those rubber components that starts to leak - bushing here and there , typical honda , had the same experience when I bought a pre owned esi before. I suggest have it replace one time, like if you are going to have the timing belt replaced.

I'd say Corolla sana, but sold na pala. Can't you find another 98 GLI matic for sale?

Not really sure though but let me try. As far as I remember, you would need to make sure that taxes are paid. There are two kinds of blue plates 4digits:diplomatic and 5digits:tax-exempt. For Diplomatic, it is required by law for the owner to pay full taxes after 5 years since it was bought or brought here in the Philippines. Then normal proceedure applys. Deed of Sale, Original copies of the OR and CR. Not sure about 5digit tax-exempt vehicles.
Mga gurus, please correct me if I'm wrong.
Kwento (related to my post): bumili kse ng car yung pinsan ko, diplomatic plates then after the 5 years, he sold the car so the buyer paid all neccessary taxes. It was a Ford Telstar bought from an embassy (US yata but can't remember). Oh, and that was back then in the early 90s. The rules/laws regarding that might have been changed.

Re LXI, sige hanap po muna ng iba, kya lang iniisip namin na mura na sa 180k considering year 97 at honda sya...
Re 01 Exalta STA, was able to haggle the price down to 250k. Kailangan lang talaga macheck ng mabuti...
kino consider din namin ung VTI...pero mataas kc masyado asking price...96 model lang kaya ng 250k budget namin.....alanganin pa ung 97 model.....balak namin kc eh atlease 98 model man lang sana makuha
Ito na mga options namin ngayon:
00-01 nissan sentra exalta
00-01 nissan ex saloon
96-97 honda vti
97-98 honda lxi
97-98 mitsu gsr
97-98 toyota gli
priority sana namin ung 1.) fuel efficiency 2.) features (ex. ABS, airbag, etc) 3.) maintenance
*russpogi - 5 digit po ung plate #. purchased locally po ung car. Sabi naman ng diplomat eh sya na bahala papers sa DFA then ipakita ko lng daw yun sa LTO para bigyan ng new plate...kaya lang nag aalala parin kmi...cguro wag na lng ito...hehehe

December 12th, 2006 05:06 PM #19hi. til now ala parin kami nakukuha. checked another 98 toyota gli (lovelife) earlier....so far ito pa lang ung pinaka-ok ung condition na nakita nmin. all stock except dun sa mags na pang altis. though may mga concerns lang ako...
a.) squeaking sound pag todo kabig ng manibela (left and right) at naka full stop pero naka D ung gear. Same sound pag maluwag ung fan belt. Might be a power steering leak or loose PS belt (meron ba?) ? mahal kaya paayos nun?
b.) may part sa hood na nagpi-peel at may mga crack yung paint. Pina-retouch daw nila dati kc nagkaroon ng dent. Hindi pinarepaint ung buong hood kaya parang may mga bubbles at mapa. Maybe around 5k lang naman cguro ang parepaint ng buong hood?
c.) may malaking dent sa right front side panel na pina-PDR. Pero hindi maganda pagkakagawa. Pansin tuloy masyado yung mga pinukpok na part. Magkano kaya aabutin pag pina latero at repaint ung buong panel?
d.) may 1 inch x .5 inch bubble sa front left side panel at sa roof. not sure kung kalawang. Nakabilad kc sa arawan dahil wala sariling garahe. major problem kaya ito?
e.) napansin ko may gas saver device (like khaos) na nakakabit. parang aero something ung brand. mga 3-4 years na daw nakakabit yun. may effect kaya sa engine yun? ok naman ung response ng engine nung ni-test drive ko. at wala din usok....
* 225k, ok na ba yun? or tingin parin ng iba?
Thanks po sa lahat ng reply...
Choice I would have made as well.:nod:
2024 Innova Zenix 2.0 V CVT (non-HEV) vs Innova...
