Volkswagen Beetle din for me. Just spend a bit for restoration. Madali ang parts and mura pa.

with a sub-100K budget range, its kinda hard not to end up with an old clunker where you'll be spending more money just to keep it running. Increasing your budget to around 120-150K will get you a much better deal of a car.

I fully agree. If you can increase your budget to say 180K, you can buy a more respectable and reliable car.

[denart]

yeah.. well maybe i can increase the budget upto 120k including the repars na. gusto ko nang car na pwede magtagal at the same time, magandang i modify ang body syempre pati parts in the long haul. im thinking of getting a corolla 89-92 model. anung model ba ang dapat kong hanapin sa corolla sa taong to? diko alam ung model names e. ok ba ung mazda 323 na mukhang sports car? ung parang flip-up ung headlights? e ung charade na parang civic ok in ba un?

i need your inputs guys. help me out here

denart: yun yung 1.6 GL kung kakayanin. mazda astina (yung masda na parang sports car na sinasabi mo) is ok, kaya lang, the engine of the corolla 89-92 model is far better than of the mazda.

another suggestion since you upped your budget..... why not a lancer 90-92 GTi? baka pasok na yun?

denart,
When it comes to modifications, performance and reliabilty and availability of parts, the 89-92 corolla is the car. I know it because I own a 90mdl. Im sure you'll never regret it.

[bangad]

denart,

agree ako sa kanila. the 89-92 corolla is your best bet.

[denart]

i was thinking of it din. i saw a couple of ads before na '90 corolla tapos minodify by putting new sets of bumpers and side skirts. nilagyan din ng sunroof at ung hood modified din. with the price tag of 160k i believe, with many upgrades, sguro binili ko na un kung may pera akong gnun. so winner na talaga at budget friendly na ung 89-92 corolla. tnx guys!

thanks pre!
btw, since you mentioned a lancer 90-92 gti, wel, what are the pros and cons of this car, comparing to the corolla 89-92 model? enlighten me man. tnx.

I now agree that KIA pride is a reliable and very fuel efficient car. just yesterday, I went to the NCR, specifically Paranaque/Las Pinas area, with my friend using his Fuel Injected Pride. Im quite amazed because he is making "hataw" as if he were driving a 1.6 liter, 16 valve car. We filled up in Tarlac, set the odo to zero. We went around the MM area for almost the whole day. And then, went home around 11 PM and gassed at the same gas station with an odo reading of 322km. Can you believe, we consumed only 19liters? Man! That's about an average of 16.95 km/l. This is unbelievable.

[BlueBimmer]

yep the pride may be a cheapass car BUT when it comes to practicality it is on top of the list. parts are so cheap u wont feel a thing when replacing parts, well a little maybe. workhorse talaga.
