Planning to buy Honda Esi 95 Model M/T

[vhinz316]

Hello po, I'm just new in this forum and I want to ask if okay pa bang bumili ng Honda Esi 95 model these days? Balak ko kasing bumili this month. My budget po kasi is 160k gusto ko talaga ng Esi kaya lang marami ang kumokontra . Gusto ko kasi aesthetics ng Esi compare to corolla XE, 1.6 GLi, XL, Honda Vti, Lxi.

Ano po ang maipapayo nyo sakin sa pagbili ng car na pasok sa budget ko po? It's my first time kasi and wala talaga akong idea siguro napormahan lang talaga ako sa Esi lalo na ung mga customized na nakita ko sa net.

Thanks

IMO add some nalang and get an EK.

Chances of mechanical/electrical problems are much less.

Thanks MDA for your suggestion tinignan ko sa google iyon ba ung tinatawag na hatchback?

Thanks

Yung gusto mong ESi ang tawag dyan, EG.

Yung gusto ni MDA, EK tawag dun ... may hatchback version siya BUT it wasn't released locally hence imports lang ang mga iyon dito. Pero, may sedan version siya which was locally released here.

Here's the hatchback version ...



And eto naman ang sedan.



SiR iyan, BUT meron pa yan 2 variants. LXi at VTi.

The SiR comes with a B16a engine. ;)

Yeah the reason why I'd rather the EK is because that the EG (ESi) is a lot older than the EK - therefore, the chances of finding one in good running condition will be relatively less as compared to finding a good running EK body.

Expect to fork over somewhere between 200-250k for an EK (whether VTi or LXi. The SiRs will cost you a lot more)

[renzo_d10]

300~350K ang SiR.

Thanks for the explanations Sir any suggestions kung ano pong mabibili ko sa 160k na budget aside from Esi?

[renzo_d10]

AE101 GLi.

Pero I think you're more inclined on the porma-look so I guess you would have to stick to your choice.

Ingat na rin sa mga flooded units. My classmate has a 95 ESi na na-ondoy hanggang bubong. They were able to restore it pero di nagtagal, aircon naman ang nasira.
