Is chevy cruze worth buying?

[netxph]

. . . just want to add.

cruze is one of the safest (if not the safest) car around. you can feel the stability and sturdy built of the car when you're driving *180kph.

Meron palang thread na ganito. Share ko lang din ang views ko. Chevy Cruze was not even on my list. Shortlisted were Altis, Civic, Strada pick-up and Toyota hi-lux. Napadaan lang ako sa isang chevy dealer when I decided to check the Cruze.

Hayun, burado na lahat yong nasa list ko. Safety, comfort, speed, interior, exterior looks of Cruze -- just love it..... and I am driving one now.

Really don't care about resale value for now - what matters most is I am just enjoying the ride each day.

Wanna try it too?

You can feel the comfort, stability, handling and performance of the Lancer EX when you're driving * 200kph+.

No offense GH, but other cars can perform at par of Lancer. but the thread starter is asking regarding Cruze. so lets stay with the topic. No doubt you love you Lancer.

Sakin its about confidence... I know its a good car pero I just can't see myself buying a Chevrolet at the moment... Wala talaga akong confidence sa brand na yan...

Exactly my point, so why emphasize the Cruze * 180kph when other car perform at par with it (or even better)?

Definitely the statement was made by someone in love with his Cruze which may or may not place bias in his statement.

kanya-kanyang gusto lang naman yan, kung saan kayo may 'confidence' dapat lang din siguro na yon ang pipiliin niyo.

hehehe can't really relate sa 180 or 200 kph niyo. Sabunot ang abot ko kay misis kung umabot ako sa ganyang speed.

Because the thread is about Cruze. i bet naman if the title is if Lancer worth buying, you would mention that as well.

Tidus: surPrise surprise, you didnt post the third world, first world statement mo kasi Cruze is a global car. lol.

I guess ill be the most unbiased guy here. To also have Bought a Cruze but i also have a problem with mine. No doubt the Cruze is a good car, unfortunately, i also got a defective unit. My issue is not the car as my problem is isolated, but how Chevrolet Philippines will fix my problem.

Like I have said, the Cruze's problem is not the car, the problem is the brand behind the car.

we would have probably gotten a cruze if the 808k M/T L was available during the 1st half of april... kaso wala eh. hehe.

it's a good car, no doubt... but as sir GH has mentioned, chevy has a long way to go in winning the hearts and minds of Filipinos.

Noticing more and more cruzes on the road now, though hehe

Ako naman ang top 2 choice ko ay Lancer EX & Cruze as my first car, but in the end I decided to get the Cruze. So far, wala pa naman akong naging problem sa Chevy Pasig. Regarding sa bilis, di naman ako into racing since I learned to drive na may family na ako kaya safety lagi.

Yeah the Cruze is a global car... I don't like the brand though, Chevy and GM (bankrupt Government Motors still majority owned by the US taxpayer)... Doesn't mean its a global car I would automatically like it. Sure in terms of safety its excellent. Reputation and service kaya, excellent din?

Well, since kami ang may Cruze sa ngayon, update na lang namin kayo later on. For now, happy kami, kaya kung sa commercial pa, "suportahan" niyo na lang kami!

[j.caine]

to the TS - answer to your question is definitely YES! it's worth every centavo! im loving it!

[mataraki]

Hi, that is also one of my concern, the resale value. I'm really thinking if I'll push through on buying this car, other option I have is the Honda City 1.3S MT. What do you think?

i dont think about resale value when i'm buying a car. as long as the car has served me and has satisfied my wants then resale is secondary. i was considering cruze but i read that its aircon has problems so it didnt interest me anymore.

what aircon problems? never experienced any aircon problems ever since i got the car

[av8or5]

Ah okay, so its the brand (chevrolet) that you dont like it's not the Cruze. Let's be specific kasi we usually buy cars on performance and specs, not necessarily the brand behind it. anyhow, it's your personal preference (brand). definitely i will not argue on your preference.

Noted sir, your another brand conscience person/tsikoteer. Yeah, muntik na nga ma bail out ang Ford, good thing they were able to do something else.

I don't think meron aircon problem ang Cruze. It might not be as cold as Nissan, but Problems, this i have to argue on. The smell that comes in from outside even if under recirculation mode, its just an added safety to control the bad gases, but because our country is polluted, the smell from the outside is not so inviting. lol.

Not exactly brand conscious, the problem kasi is the history of Chevy locally... Heard of the Optra? Expensive parts, delayed parts, bad quality, bad dealer service... So its too risky at this point to know for sure if they have improved for the better... If they do improve maybe we can consider them in the next generation, but I am skipping this generation after the mess that is the Optra...

And Ford was never close from going bust since they had the financial cushion necessary even after the fallout that the other two didn't have or was not prepared for. Let's just say Ford have a genius driver named Alan Mulally and GM had a substandard driver named Rick Wagoner during the crisis...
