guyz patulong naman humanap ng 2 door car

[chriz_siy]

Tagal na kase akong naghahanap kaso medyo nahihirapan ako especially when it comes to pricing, budget ko po ranges from 600-900k depending po dun sa kotse (and sa decision ng tatay ko, sorry college lang ) mas inclined ako sa mga sports cars o basta pormang two-door kase may mga kotse na kame sa bahay. And, preferrably asian cars kase mahirap humanap ng parts esp. pag euro pero kung magandang deal talaga, ok rin lang. And also, m/t sana rin.

So far kase ang nahahanap ko palang are the converted skylines (700k), converted integras (400k), converted ek9s (400k), eclipse (700k kaso a/t), 3000gt (900k), lancer gsr (300k), at 240sx (350k)

Kung may alam pa po kayo na iba pang car o masmagandang deal paki tulong nalang po. ty!

I've seen one and personally maganda po sya tingnan.. kaso masyadong maliit na para bang at any moment pwede kang mamatay kapag binangga ka. THe 2 seat capacity is also a problem... but i myt check one out if the price is good and reasonable. know someone na nagbebenta mura?

how about a converted pajero evolution?

2-door SUVs? wala kasing masyadong 2-door dito...mga converted lahat.... uy, may rx-7 FC (or is it FD) na binebenta either dito sa tsikot ads/ dun sa ads ng kabilang site....cant remember,e...

may naliligaw ding FTO dito..and GTO (not Great Teacher Onizuka)dito

Since price is a big issue for you, why not a Hyundai coupe na manual nalang. Pasok na sa budget n ok naman porma. Since brand new, reliability & maintenance shouldn't be an issue too. Not sure nga lang if youre after strong image as well though.

If you're on a budget, forget a secondhand Skyline or 3000GT, you won't be able to afford the maintenance. You can get the 3000GT in LHD, but good luck finding parts. Skyline parts aren't as hard, but the quality of conversion will probably be so-so at those prices. Plus, cheaper and older Skylines have the interior ambience of a taxi cab... ( :lol: ). Unless you can afford an original conversion and a higher end model, it's not that good a buy.

Between RX-7s, maybe the FC. The non-turbo engine is more robust than the twin turbo one, unless the previous owner has already fixed the gaskets. But maintaining an RX-7 here is really a labor of love, and it's definitely not a daily car. It's better reserved for when you have the time.

I doubt your dad would approve any of the above cars, unless he's willing to care for it himself.

You're a college student, you'll probably need your ride every day, and you won't be able to fit trips to various shops to fix a secondhand sports car into your schedule... at least not while actually studying. (trust me on this)

An EK9 Type R or Integra isn't a bad choice. The parts may not be cheap, but they're easily available. The first generation Hyundai Coupe is nice and cheap, and is actually very fast (unlike the much heavier current model) as well as quite nimble. Kaya lang, it's not always first choice for "porma".

900k is a big budget. You can get a recent or brand new car for that much. Not interested in a Ford RS? (haha... shameless plug) The new Hyundai Coupe has just been priced beyond 1 million, but maybe you can find a 2003 or 2004 one for not so much. The Coupe will at least feel very special, with a great interior... leather sports seats and all, as well as good looks. It may be a little slow compared to your other choices, but it's a fine car you can use every day, and the steering does make it feel sporty.

Yup, tama si niky. Been there, done that, too. Mahirap talaga. Had to shelve the Benz in favor of the Kia for a while. Pero ngayon medyo may time na ulit. Yahoo.

Suggestion ko get a BMW Z3. Some are being sold at 1M.

ty for all the help
well in terms of everyday living... im surely not going to drive it in college, humahanap lang ako ng away, karera ( baka sirain pa :-( ) I have a car naman a very old exalta that i like very much, but it was kinda my dad's idea (with my pushing haha) that made him want to buy a sports car. so guaranteed, there would be time for maintenance and fixing. Il probably be using the car after classes or during weekends, so im mainly after the looks and the interiors, since speed wouldn't be much needed (not unless i want to risk my life during kareras hahaha) Of course speed is still necessary but of the three id probably choose that last.
The starlet and the ford rs seems nice but i havent got a taste for cars with a big back, van-like i suppose.
Thanks for all your help really esp. for the advices. sana nga lang po kaya nyung magsend ng links or ads na makakatulong skin...
ty again

eclipse or 200sx

[ale828]

How about classic or convertible cars? i have seen a few imported 2 door E36 and convertible E30/E36 that would fit your budget. although most of these would be A/T, same for the Mitsu Eclipse and Nissan 200sx although there was 2 locally sold M/T na 200sx but i doubt if the owners are willing to sell. Miata's are also quite good plus they hold their value well. Its not as fast as the others but it handles like a dream plus i find it safer (original LHD) than some converted cars in the road.

chriz_siy: College isn't what it might seem. Hindi ka naman kakarera kung ayaw mo, diba? Tsaka as long as hindi ka naman mayabang, wala naman siguro magtitrip sa oto mo.
