Hyundai Getz

[alex manalo]

ganun din ba ang kalakaran sa getz, pipilitin ka pa ring mag financing at yung mga gustong mag-cash basis ay kailangang mamuti ang mata sa kahihintay?

saw 2 getz this morning running sa coastal road, sa biglang tingin para jazz. mukhang ayaw ihataw ng may-ari kasi bago, naiwan sila pareho ng traffic nung nag stop and go na

[rayana]

saw a green one near valero, makati...laway ako!!!

sa mga getz-owners...any feedback pls... how's the ride? fuel consumption so far? lakas ba aircon? thanks!

Is it true that the price for the Getz will be increasing soon? Dito sa Bacolod 429K siya at 2 units na lang available at that price. Sabi ng dealer, tataas na daw ang prices sa next batch, dunno kung magkano ang itataas. Hesitant akong mag-commit dahil silver at technical grey lang ang colors ng available units, medyo boring.

I'll probably be test driving the Getz tomorrow. We'll see how it goes.

I had a chance to test drive the Getz earlier today. The thing that immediate caught my attention were the brakes. It wasn't very good. Stepping on the brakes causes the car, as well as everyone inside it, to lurch forward before coming to a stop. This happens even if I step on the brakes slowly. I wonder if Getz owner also experience the same thing.

Nope. I'm in Bacolod.

I have no prolems with the brakes. Maybe the problem is just an aberration.

[ET1]

ET1, ano fuel consumption mo, nasukat mo na ba?

Medyo mababa sa claim ng mga dealers. I got 13km/liter, combined city/highway. But my usage also includes staying idle for more than 20 mins nung naglagay ako ne seatcovers! I'll check my consumption this week if there will be any improvements.

Thanks for the info, ET1. I've just finished browsing through a couple of Getz forums (getzclub and hyundai-forums) and some of the Getz owners do experience some sort of brake problem in the form of recurring knocking sounds. It seems that Hyundai is aware of this and has issued a safety bulletin. I'll try to discuss this further with the dealer tomorrow and see what happens.

I also test drove the Matrix Diesel, and it's brakes were just fine.

i had 14km/l consumption.. combined city, expressway and provincial driving..

route was makati-la union, la union-manaoag and back.. I just got my GETZ last Friday and am now reading 800+ in the ODO..

same with ET1, i have not experienced any problem on my brakes... Aircon is good, malamig pa din (no. 2) kahit 5 adults and 2 toddlers ang sakay, travelin from 10-12nn..

[BlueBimmer]

between the silver n gray, mas pogi tingnan ang gray hehe

about 2 weeks ago... i saw 2 full truckloads, about 6 cars per truck yata...going southbound laguna along the old highway, sa may calamba area. kala ko honda jazz, then on closer look, dun ko lang nakita yung emblem ng hyundai sa harap then "Getz" sa likod. from the looks of the paint, parang di pa polished masyado. baka kako for finishing and polishing pa sya.
kung maglalabas sila ng crdi version nyan... ok yan for city driving.

What color did you get? May alam ka ba na marunong mag mount ng actuator sa tailgate? I've already asked two dealers and sabi nila malalagyan lang daw ng central locks yung mga doors pero yung tailgate hindi daw pwede. Nakakainis kasi because you need to bring a spare key para madaling buksan yung tailgate pare mainspect ng mga guards when I go to a mall.

an electric trunk opener is available in most car accessory shops. I had one installed on my Kia.

I got the cheeze whiz (vivid) yellow.. my first option was a silver but my wife and son liked the yellow more... when i got to the showroom, silver was out of stock and I need to wait until 2nd week of May, so I got the yellow instead..

Have you tried Hyundai Alabang? I have talked to Makoy last Friday and he said that they do the tail gate.. He quoted me for 2.5K so it's 500 bucks a piece including the tail gate.

Hirap talaga kapag manual sa tail gate.. ako din, meron palaging dalang spare key.. Ayaw ko pa nga pa tint dahil sa ngayon, sinisilip lang ng guard kapag labas ako office, pag may dark tint na, kilangan ko na buksan..

[ET1]

Buti ka pa nakakuha ka ng yellow! Di nakakuha ng allocation for yellow yung dealer ko so I have to settle with lilac blue. Anyway, nakapag install na ako ng power locks kasama pati yung tailgate. It only cost me about P1,600. Punta ka sa Hyundai Makati at hanapin mo si Glenn Mallari.

sa winterpine sa araneta avenue, may mga tailgate actuator sila 650 pesos
