What to buy with 150-200k budget?Newbie here

[mynvidia]

thanks for the reply guys..=)

how about the 1996 lancer glxi?hehe

ghosthunter pretty much covered everything on the other 3 models but no one seems to have any info on the lancer.. =)

on what you guys have already said..the corolla is starting to look much more sweeter..hehe

[notEworthy27]

As with the lancer, parts are easy to find. Engine swap is kinda ok, depends on what engine you want to swap it with. My only beef with lancers is that as it ages and the owner doesn't maintain the car, you'll hear a lot of squeeks in the cabin...but then all in all I'd still choose the lancer over the other cars mentioned.

[mynvidia]

thanks sir noteworthy27..:D

finally someone who goes for the lancer..hehe

kudos to sir margeaux too for his help...

im getting more and more inclined to the lancer..hehe

pls post more opinions guys...they're very informative! thanks

[SupreMacy]

i agree also, i think mas ok ang lancer pag dating sa 2nd hand.

sa 200k, kahit siguro lancer na pizza, makakakita ka.
kaunting tiyaga lang sa paghahanap.

kung corolla kasi kukuhanin mo, most likely you'll end up
with a 12 year old car... mataas kasi ang re sale value ng
toyota kaysa lancer.

normally issue lang naman ang re sale value dun sa mga
nagplaplanong bumili ng brand new.

hmmm..pasingit lang. medyo pro lancer (pizza) 1997 EL ako..

approx value: between 180K ~ 200K. tsagaan nga lang sa paghanap kc konti lang nagbebenta ng 2nd hand nito compared sa corollas..

pros
1. sporty look. dali lang papormahin.
2. fuel economy. 1300cc lang to and this translates to 12~14 km/liter city/highway driving compared sa 9-11 ng mga 1.6 engines (lancer glxi, corolla gli..) yun nga lang, medyo bitin syempre sa performance.
3. good resale value. though in my opinion this is a car-to-keep = )

cons
hmmm....manual window..
then some 1997 EL (manufactured on first half of that year) are not power steering..sabi nila nag start lang yung PS nung 2nd half na..

[mynvidia]

nice info..:D thanks again guys..keep those posts coming

thanks to sir supremacy and paparu23 btw..hehe

if you're gonna buy a Lancer, take note of the sudden dip of the RPM when the engine is at idle with the A/C on.

With the engine at idle and the A/C on, the RPM should not dip very low whenever the A/C compressor kicks in, it should read at least 900-1000 RPM.

Observe mo kung mag-fluctuate ang RPM to a very low level and if it will stay there for a few seconds, if that's the case then either it's throttle body has not been cleaned ever since or worse is the servo is on it's way out.

what to buy with 350k budget..:D

if that's your new budget, I suggest you get a later model civic or a corolla GLi

[simpsonseclaire]

If you do have 350K I'll go for Civic Vti 97-99. Just keep it always tuned so the engine won't get worn't out easily and you'll get the fuel efficiency the best the car could.

[lm723]

Mazda Familia 97-98 models.

[an0nim0us]

350K!? I think that's good for a 2000-2002 ford lynx ghia already (maybe even the face-lifted one)

Specs ng ghia,
1.6 dohc 118 ps (feels more than that actually)
ABS
Airbags (dual)
Full leather seats and sidings
12-disc CD changer
Stereo with 6 speakers (incl tweeters on pillar)
rear sun shades
folding seats
15in wheels
L-NVH

heheh and nope hindi pa po for sale yung sa kin.

[basti08]

yup, Lynx Ghia...facelifted with sunroof

or

2000Sentra Exalta STA
99-00Civic VTi
99-00Corolla GLi

for 350 gran I would go for the cars that belong to the BIG 3 jap car manufacturer worldwide.. 1st choice - a sleek black sentra STA, "techy" n' very swabe looki'n lalo na with big rims and ofcourse quality wise no problem.. 2nd n' 3rd choice would belong to the 98-99 civic vti or a rolla gli!! If I were you bro I would choose from these quality cars.. have the chance to use these cars for quite a while kc. Good luck man!!!
