A-Toy should have based it on these....
Chevy's WTCC R+ concepts


Chevy's 172 hp supercharged 1.8 liter WTCC R+ concepts were inspired by their WTCC race car.

Wow I also like the left one.172 hp lang for a 1.8 liter..For me ang baba nung gain ah..

wala na palang rear..putol putol kasi yung images sa website ng a-toy eh..well if you have the tech&tuner mag november issue..there's an article there on the souped-up chevy optra..

by the way, im confused dun sa red tag promo nila..nung nagpa-quote kami ng 1.6LS A/T 755K tapos less 15K pero yung sa newspaper ad nila mas mababa pa?

[carlocaraddict]

sana improve nila yung manual transmission. Long throw eh!

Oo nga hindi pwede pang racing minsan pa nga misshift pa ako sa sobrang long throw ng manual transmission ng optra..

1.6 M/T
i've checked it twice already.
from pasig to san miguel bulacan is around 160 km back and forth.
it consumed a total of 18.2 L at first, then 18.0 L on the second time.

[niky]

Mga 8.8 km/l. Tama lang yun if it's during daytime traffic.

The horrible consumption of other owners is really the fault of the A/T. Kahit mga lumang Ford Lynx at mga current na Focus ganyan (but word is Focus consumption gets better as the engine loosens up) kung 1.6 o 1.8 atsaka AT.

[niky]

That's okay. VW uses a turbo to get 150 out of a 1.8. What the use of the supercharger does mean is that power upgrades won't cost as much. Mura lang mag-pulley swap at chip upgrade kung may SC na.

[SupreMacy]

isa na din to sa nagustuhan ko sa optra...
wala pang masyadong kumukuha, marami ka pang mods na
pwedeng gawin na wala pang makakamukha dito sa pinas.

Good Day People, i was reading this thread from the first post till the last, masyadong maraming mga negative feedbacks sa chevrolet optra, well di ko alam kung bakit, yon ang pananaw nila sa car na to, well im a proud owner of a chevrolet optra, i owned 1.8 LT, sa experience ko all run very smooth compare other cars.

Whatever the Toyota or Honda-biased people say, the Optra seems to be doing ok in the local market, I see many facelifted Optras running around. After being in the local automotive market for 2 and a half years, if something was seriously wrong with it, people wouldn't buy it.

Underpowered sya at nde ganun kaganda fuel mileage for a 1.6 or 1.8.

I agree mabigat na ang kaha underpowered pa.Cguro kung nasa 140-160hp yung 1.6 nila pwede pa.

hmmmmmmmmm. . . . as my experience sa 1.8, hindi naman, ang smooth nang takbo, kahit umaabot ako sa 175 to 180 kph sa NLEX, ABS pretty well good, marami na akong mga nakasabayan na sedan na mga cars sa NLEX such as ALTIS, LYNX, MAZDA3&6 atb. hindi naman mahuhuli ang takbo nang car na to, nakipag sabayan na rin ako sa BMW na bagong model, hindi rin pahuhuli to, overall in my experiences of my car, this is a superb car so far that i owned.

Wala po bang Chevrolet Optra Club?

Wala pa pero merong Chervolet Club Philippines na ang founder ay si Rav_5 punta ka lang sa car clubs forum..

Update sa optra merong namumuong RUST sa gilid kung saan nandun yung seatbelt.

[chris_d]

My friend has an optra, naasar sya dahil mabagal daw. Underpowered sya at nde ganun kaganda fuel mileage for a 1.6 or 1.8. Other than that for the price its pretty good.

[niky]

Di ako puwede sa Optra club... archenemy namin yun! (Ford Lynx kasi ako. :evillaugh: )

But I applaud GM for achieving good market penetration with the car. I do agree that the 1.8 Optra is a good buy, while the 1.6 seems to be a headache only in AT form (the old 1.6 AT Lynx was also a guzzler, but not as bad).

I only hope that GM improves its aftersales support to the level of the competition. They have quite a bad reputation for after sales service (both here and in the US) that they must work hard to overcome.

Sana, kung successful sila sa Optra 5-door, Ford and Toyota will likewise be encouraged to bring in their 5-door wagons. (I was actually hoping we would get the Lynx RS in 5-door... amfogi! ).
