Sa 2000 yata ang XE ay all power na, if you can go for the 2000 model na XE, dun ka na. Mas bago, all power, pero tipid pa rin.

Good luck man...

Pero ok ang 97 GLi kasi marami kang puwedeng ikabit di tulad nung 98-00.

the ae101 is bigger than ae111. so its better that you get the ae101 for its size. Another point the ae111 has a weaker engine because its a 1.3 the ae101 is 1.6 fuel injected

But the the ae111 is a newer model than the ae101. But then again even if a car is newer it depends on the owner if they took care of the car

What are your priorities? Power? Space? Economy? If its power and space and you have a bigger budget for repairs here and there, then the AE101 Gli (pretty good car). If you want economy in maintainance and a newer car, then the AE111 is the choice. We bought a 2nd hand AE111 1.3 two years ago and its a good buy. I overhauled the engine and suspension (no change of shocks yet) and it cost less than 20K all-in-all (OEM parts used).
