Honda SIR - why ang daming haters?

[Noel Salisipan]

.... Naman! :hihihi:

Sikat ka na lalo Tsong (hehehe), kaya ingatan mo yang name/handler mo.

Ang Tsikot, wala bang EB o reunion?

Pero ikaw renz, ingat ka pa rin magsasali sa eb habang hindi pa tuluyang "naghihilom ang mga sugat nila".hehehe

Ang alam ko ang Tsikot nagkakaron ng EB annually ata -- or basta ganun bihira lang. Last year, October ata nagkaron then this year nagkaron ng January sa Fiamma.

Usually mga EB is set up by barkada na nafoform dito. Like for example, ASX owners...

Kaya nga hindi ako sumasali eh...

Thanks, kulang lang ako sa balita.

Pero sa ASX wala pa by group, pero certain individual merong isolated instances.

Pero pwede ka na sumali ngayon, huwag mo lang gagamitin yun car na na-mention mo sa mga forum.hehehe

BTT, ok naman yung dalawang SIR na nakikita ko dito sa gawi sa amin, alaga din nung may ari.

I just hope na di na talaga mauulit ito... next time... i wont even give a warning...di na tayo mga bata... think first before posting anything in public...whatever we post it will reflect kung sino tayo.

And again...

Its ok to criticize any car or brand ... even the car review experts do that.

Its ok to bash a driver or car owner if nakitang may mali nagawa sa kalsada.

Its not ok to post pictures of private individuals and insult them based on their appearance.

Its not ok to bash a group or club... if abusado isang tao sa kalsada and member ng isang club... it does not reflect the club as a whole. Dont generalize.

Matatanda na tayo...alam na natin ang tama at mali... di ko man maisulat lahat... we just have to use our....


COMMON SENSE.

[renzo_d10]

Copy!

Too short.

[kodiak]

Regarding, car club bashing, sir jedi. It seems that shadow and ozcity still practices this "hobby". Just read the previous posts from them. I don't get it, did they have such bad experience from that club? I have a friend from that club and they say that they have a warning system in effect. It seems that these forumers are bitter about something. They are posting half truths and some foul languages like sucking and licking ass and dicks...

Ok lang sa price na 550 kung super busog talaga yong SiR nya

[foresterx]

Ok lang sa price na 550 kung super busog talaga yong SiR nya

no, kahit gaano ka fresh at heavily modified yan a 12-13yr old car shouldn't cost that much.

[uls]

kung sobra bugbog pwede sa P550,000...

then pag wasak sa accident na humiwalay ng 15 ft away ang makina sa sasakyan P1,000,000 is a good price

[jut703]

550k could get you a Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R (if you find one, that is). Not in perfectly good condition, but hey, it'd take a heavily modified SiR to match that on a straight line, and ewan ko lang kung makasabay sa corners ang SiR kay Gozilla.

Point is, while the SiR is a good car in itself, primarily because of the B16A that comes as standard, its prices in the market today are way too high to be considered practical. You can find faster and more comfortable cars for the price of the SiR.

About 2-3 years back, I wanted an SiR. Then I realized prices weren't dropping, so my wishlist shifted to either an AE101 with a 4AGE or a B13 with an SR20DE. Then about a year ago, I realized that these are ~15 year-old cars, and while they have fun engines, their chassis aren't all that modern, and they haven't really got much features to speak of. So right now, I've shifted my eyes on to the Lynx RS. Hopefully by the time I've got 250k to spend, meron pang natitirang for sale.

[KEN SIAO]

UU nasa 600 plus ata price nung unang labas ng SiR.

[Harangody]

Kung 550k, mag FD ka na lang, 450k lang.

[ozcity]

Kung 550k, mag FD ka na lang, 450k lang.

+ 1000 paps
ofcourse sa bago ka .
panget nga ng FB..diko pagpapalit FD ko..for keeps na ..10yrs from now magiging classic na din ang FD just like SIR..hehehe

Honda and Isuzu are car brands that are benefiting from old school pinoy thinking na da best gas or diesel cars. Toyota may have somehow capitalized laso on brand perception pero medyo acceptable pa kahit papano IMO. 'Di gaya ng Isuzu and Honda na parang all models eh super taas pa ng resale value.

[niwde11]

price are usually dependent on the market. kung marami ang demand at maliit ang market medyo kakaiba talaga magiging pricing.
alam nyo ba yung isang sasakyan na nirelease nung 1998 ay nag-appreciate pa ngayon 2012. afaik 2008 pa lang appreciate na sya kasi konti lang ang dumating at di inaasahang magkakaron ng demand sa market years after it was released.
and the car is stock ha. di sya "modified" or "busog"?

[kodiak]

That's economics... Plain and simple. I dont know why it's hard to understand. Hanggat madaming umaasam at nagaagawan mas mahirap kuhanin. Magaling ang marketing ng Honda sa SiR and hindi naman din pangit performance and looks. So ayun ang phenomenon ng high price nya. You can always settle for the more affordable one if budget is the problem. But you will sacrifice your dream, if you really want an SiR... And yung mga nahuhumaling naman sa SiR or whatever na kotse at parang mga adik sa pagpupuri sa sasakyan nila, hayaan niyo na sila. Dumaan din naman kayo dun di ba? So mauunawaan niyo din dapat. Lest you be labeled a hypocrite.

Swerte pala talaga ng mga nakabili ng SIR nung unang ilabas dito. Pwera na lang yung mga naaksidente dahil na rin sa recklessness nila.

Swerte talaga. Nagamit mo na ng ilang beses kaya mo pa ibenta ng 100-300k less from its original price lang. Usually, buyers wouldn't care much about sa mileage ng SiR mo. Lalo na yung mga talagang nagkukumahog makakuha ng isa? Walang pakielam. Basta bihis.. WOW! kaagad sila.

That's the advantage you get from having one, isa pa.. if you're lucky enough to get a fresh unit for 250k.. you can sell it for as much as 400k at may papatos pa rin. Kumita ka pa. Hahaha.

400k sa 12yrs old car?...

[renzo_d10]

400k sa 12yrs old car?...

Yep. 12-14 year-old vehicle.

Alam mo naman diba, 'til now may nagkukumahog pa rin talaga para makakuha ng isang SiR no matter how crappy the condition is, already.
