    My FC for my out of town trip over the weekend was 14.479 kms/liter. My route was Manila - Talavera, NE - Tarlac - Subic - Manila. Along the stretch of SCTEX - Clark to Subic, I just drove at about 80 kph to enjoy the view.

    Congrats bro on your new Carens!

    Early this morning I dipped my Silver Carens in flooded waters half a wheel deep. No complaints from this car. The brakes gripped well pa rin. Coming from driving a Crosswind, I was pretty nervous but it turned out well.

    May ibubuga rin sa baha tong Carens natin.

Wala pala, so sa Cubao ako nagpalagay Cobra3 plus Sparco Botls It looks fine naman.. Napansin ko lang masgumanda ang ride after kabitan, sabi rin nung nagkabit kasi daw 6.5 ung size compared sa Steel rim na 6 lang. But parang bumaba sya ng kaunti. 15 inch lang pinalagay ko since sabi ng SA ko mavoviod daw warranty if I go higher.

    Cobra3 Mags P19,500 (From P21K)
    Sparco Bolts P700 (From P900)
    Free Labor and Alignment

    I went to SeatMate din nagpagawa nako ng Seatcover and Leather for the Shiftknob. I can get it on Friday, I will post pictures agad.. :-)

    P7,500 - Leatherette (Walang tawad)
    P400 - Shift Know (From P450)
    P1800 - Steering Wheel (Next ko ito)


    Would you believe pala? I got my unit last Thursday and Friday my agent text me that I already have a plate number. One day processing, its really fast!!! I got my plate number na, pero di ko pa kinakabit since good for a week naman ung unit na walang Plaka, and kasi walang binigay na screw sakin nung binigay ung Plate. hehehe

    Sir, ganda looks ng carens mo.....

    Just want to say this guys...

    it been increasingly common to see about 2-3 carens a day the past few days. back in november, (when we are still thinking of buying it over the japs bets) 2 or even 1 a week is lucky. dumadami na ang "informed" buyers

    regards to all!

    Right now, it's a very close fight for third place sa Automobile of the Year category. When I voted now, the Carens was just ahead of the Starex by four votes... Keep voting, guys!

    Mqavila, got it sa KIA Taytay. They are very friendly and accommodating! They gave me the best trade-in deal, I don't think anyone can match it.

    Bro, if you don't mind, can you pm me the deal that you got from KIA Taytay? I'm just curious...

    Anybody here, parked a Blue LX CRDI Carens sa likod ng Robinson Summit Center Makati Parking Area kanina? I think pareho pa kami ng MAGS na gamit.

    Hi Guys,

    I will soon be a proud owner of Kia Carens,(i was convinced just by reading this thread) im on the process of negotiation with the dealer, since taga-Bataan kami, sa Kia Pampanga kami nag-i-inquire. so far ito ang usapan namin, baka meron kayong maisa-suggest or comments to get the best deal from them

    '08 LX/MT = 885k with free 3 yrs LTO, 1yr insurance, tint, matting and seat cover

    pag nag in-house financing, medyo mataas yung interest, 9.5% though nag-inquire nako sa BPI at binigyan kami ng 5.6% p.a. pag 50% dp, 12months to pay.

    i was trying to ask for the rims and tires na pang EX at fog lamps para i-upgrade yung sa LX at sabi mag-a-add daw ako ng 80k for those e samantalang nabasa ko dito, i forgot the handle e nagpa-upgrade din sya including back-up sensor, wala pa atang 50k, so sabi ko ibigay mo sa akin ng 45k, babayaran ko ng cash yung unit, kaso hindi daw pwede.

    ano pa po kaya pwede kong gawin to get those accessories cheaper

    salamat sa mga mag re reply
