    pagdating sa dulo and while we are paying at the booth, we saw the SiR with windows opened. patingin tingin sa amin, haha!
    hehehe this is a funny story...i bet nakapatay aircon, nanginginig manibela nyo at pawis na pawis na kayo sa loob ng sasakyan hehehe. nissan lec is my first car mendyo underpower siya kasi once nag on yung compessor ng aircon ng kotse ramdam ko yung effect sa engine... baka nag crucruse lang ung driver ng SiR at akala nyo nakikipag racing na sila sa inyo

Sometimes more if packed. and when you miss a gear shift it's very unforgiving, some might say "nasa driving skills yan". pero it's supposed to be easy diba. Now, i've matured and when choosing cars, i'm looking for good torque throughout the rpm range. I already sold the car long ago but I do still miss the noise it makes when it hits the sweet spot .

    add: I'm currently driving an AT. heehee
    New generation of Si has more torque, except new Si is not sold in the philippines.

    Some examples of these are:
    -Mitsubishi Lancer EX GT / GTA
    -Subaru Impreza WRX 2.0 (non-turbo)
    -Ford Focus TDCi M/T (recently phased out in favor of the new DSG model)
    True, except Si is still one of the most fun FF small car in the market.

    hahaha! yeah very funny talaga. kaya siguro nakatingin sa kanila yung naka SiR kasi nagtataka sya sa ginagawa nilang pagpapatakbo ng mabilis while sya ay cruising speed lang
