    I only have one car as for now. I have an 05 VW golf. I bought it because it's my dream car at that time. Now, I want a Audi A3.

    :btw: My husband also drives an 05 VW Golf.

    A3

    I like the speed, exotic nature and design. I also like somethings for its size and off-road ability if you wanted to take it out of the city. Utility is also good. An all around sports car that I can take to the track is also good. I think thats it.. Oh yeah, Color too!

    Mitsubishi Adventure.

    I chose it because:

    - It has more interior space than a sedan.
    - I've proven it in many instances to be reliable.
    - It came out just in time with the new look.

    I used to have an Isuzu Trooper skyroof. Maintenance was too expensive which was P5k every 5000km. On the 20000km I paid 16K. Grabe. It was also too big for a daily drive and too intimidating to my customers. I'm in sales so akala ng customer ko malaki ang profit ko. Hehe

    So I decided to change it to a Nissan XTrail. A good daily drive, nimble and powerful. I look younger pa driving it hehe. And its not too flashy to my customer. 5000km pms cost me 2K.

    i bought my 1st car in 2000, 2nd gen Mitsu Strada 4x4, 900k pa lang noon financing.

    reasons I bought it: road safety reasons, for business and personal use, pangbaha and I cant afford (kahit naman ngaun) a Pajero, my dream car, back then. after almost two months of using it, I asked my dad to swap his 99 CRV with my strada. I didnt like the handling of strada before bec. I got used to gasoline cars for so long. Pero ngaun, wish ko lang balik nya yun strada, grabe mahal ng gasolina ngaun!

    nope, numbers don't match but it has been fully rebuilt inside and out/over and under during a course of 10 years. I'm hoping to be able to put in a 10 cylinder motor in next year or so...

    Too bad it would have been worth a whole lot more. I've seen matching cudas go up to 100-200k!

    aray...tinamaan ako nito ah

    actually i wanted a topaz blue one but didn't want to wait 3 months for a special order. the black one i got had all the options i wanted except for the color.

    bought it because i really wanted a sports car, and a 3-series was the best one in my budget that could also double as a family car. also looked at the audi s4 but was turned off by reports of unreliability and the tight backseat space
