    Sirain ba ang Optra? I have a friend who happens to have both 2005 Optra 1.6LS and 2008 Honda Civic 1.8S. Both of which very satisfied sya. Sabi nya, he can't even fully compare the Civic sa Optra kase yung Civic january lang na-deliver sa kanila samantalang yung Optra has been with him for 3 years. Di naman daw sakit sa ulo pero medyo matakaw sa gas (6-7km/l). Other than that, the free 2 years PMS is very convenient and he has no complaints other than the FC whatsoever.

    Dont' forget the Venture, the king of maintenance and repairs among all Chevys.

    Hmmm.. Actually company ang nag-require nun because it has very high regards for safety. I'll ask nalang siguro BPI medyo malabo kasi.

    Hey, what do you guys have to say about Kia Rio? I went to the Kia Rio thread eh mukhang ok naman ang mga comments nila and comparable daw ito sa Vios. Totoo kaya yun?

    The Rio really ain't bad. Personally I'd prefer the hatchback version if it were available.

    I would, however, invest in better rubber as soon as I get one, based on Niky's comments in the thread.

    may prices na si Lui (of Hyundai Abad Santos) albeit tentative pa lang.

    420K yung i10 (or is it i20).
    900K daw yung i30 CRDi (138hp).

    malamang yung i30 Estate CRDi (wagon) yung 900K na i30. then the i30 hatch CRDi will be priced at around 700K. Then the i20 will be the odd-ball at around 580-600K

    Wala eh, diesel lang talaga wise choice sa ngayon (or LPG/CNG). Ewan ko lang kung pwede ito gamitan ng home brewed bio-D from used cooking oil (dami akong sources nito). hehehe. Gasoline naman ok din (kung Jazz/Getz/Vios), kaso pag hataw or traffic na, tapos ka.
