2007 altis or 2006 civic, pls help us decide

[otto_girl]

hi, im a newbie here..
ask po sana opinion nyo kung ano ang mas ok bilhin, 2007 Altis 1.6E or 2006 Civic 1.8V?
isa na sa difference nila ay ang engine, pero kung overall po ang basis, alin ang mas ok?

singit ko na din, dapat kse ay chev optra 1.6 LS na ang bilhin namin kaso bigla nag bago isip at ngayon nga ay toyota
at honda na lng pinagpipilian, tama po ba ang choice? isa kse sa criteria namin ay yung spacious ang interior, kaya out tlaga sa choice namin ang vios at city.
thanks

the Civic 1.8V has no airbags, abs, ebd... while the Altis 1.6E has those. the Altis also has a more spacious cabin & cargo area.

the Optra also is a nice bargain choice (since that ECU reprogramming thingie that they did to improve fuel consumption). the Optra LS, which is similarly spec-ed to the Altis 1.6E, is P100K cheaper than the latter. steering isn't its forte (depsite those advertised Lotus-tuned suspension) as it has a tendency to understeer badly under hard cornering but for normal driving it is just ok.

Di kaya the poster is referring to whatever all new 2007 Altis to replace the current Zz?

If you need a car now, why not get the 2006 Civic? IMO, waiting for the next newest thing is quite pointless because consumer items are bound to get outdated quite rapidly which is sometime between a few of months and a year, thanks to the manufacturer's planned obsolescence for their products. You got to jump into it (the buying process) at some point.

Will the new corolla looks anything like those ugly new corolla's you can spot in singapore?

[theveed]

^^^ Yup hehe, but if it's my money, I'll never get a 1st gen of any all-new body models hehe, lugi eh, in a year or two, a newer, fresher design of the same car will come out at the same cost. Pag dating ng bentahan, lugi ka rin sa presyo dahil 1st gen even though 90% of the car is the same as the facelifted ones.

Not to mention the problems that come with untested units sa real-world.

Honda is the manufacturer that absolutely facelifts their models after three years since a model's initial release. But if its a Toyota, dont expect any *significant* facelifts on their vehicle line-up. The exception to that is the Revo, which spawned so many looks in its 5 to 6 yrs of existence.

he's got a point. why not consider an Adventure or an L300?

di naman cguro ..ang mahal noon buong dashboard ,
eh hindi naman iyon ang nasira,kundi ilaw or radio

parang naging disposable ang dash ng Civic everytime na baklasin

hi.. thanks po sa reply.. yup, tama si mazdamazda, lumabas na yung 2007 Altis.. wala masyado difference sa current na Altis..
hmm, may point din si theveed, cge we'll think about it.

2007 altis? eto ba yung Altis S??....dress-up lang ito diba?

[mazdamazda]

altis s? basically... a dressed up altis 1.6J... a dumb move if you ask me...

why dress up the base model (not even fitted with even basic safety features)? on the contrary... a lot do actually do this (e.g. seen a lot of innova j with stepboard, bullbar, spoiler, window visor, body cladding, etc.)

tagal kasi ng new corolla...
