Hindi lang nakakatipid sa gas, pati ung brakes mo hindi rin nalalaspag.

i see! thank you sir jrebong. How bout kung nasa neutral ung gear then inaapakan mo ung acclerator ng pa onti onti para tumunog ng malakas ung makina, safe ba un? hehhehe

Sir sa tingin ko, OK lang yun. Pero dagdag fuel consumption. Hehehe...

Ako nga one time, naka-hinto yung sasakyan sa trapik(stop-light), naka-nuetral at hand brake. Ganun kasi nakasanayan ko pag medyo matagal mahihinto sasakyan. So nung ire-release ko na yung handbrake, tinapakan ko yung brake ng madiin pero mali pala natapakan ko, gas pedal pala.

Ayun. almost 6K yata na-rev yung oto. hehehe... muntik na umabot ng redline. And since then, pansin ko. parang mas naging swabe takbo ng oto ko. hehe.

Ano kayang babagay sa M3 2.0 na 17" mags? Ito kasi ung birthday gift sakin, better kung mag canvass and reasearch muna ako.

This might help sir.

the promo of mazda 3 2.0L is so tempting...the trade in value to my 2008 11 months 1.6 m/t altis is quitely fair (600T+)...given from this forum this could do 10-11km/l in provincial trips and around 8km/l in city to a well manner acceleration which is acceptable to me...huh! what do you think guys...

what is the pros and cons of this 2.0L mazda 3...maintenance cost compare to toyota...does the engine will be a problem say 3-5 years from now since our govt started to implement ethanol mix to our gas...i seen the pics of the upcoming mazda 3 but the front appearance is too exaggerated for me...

what about the mazda 6...will the recenltly made engine of m6 do any better?...could the gas consumption i mention for m3 something similar to this new engine...your input guys will be much appreciated tia!

+1 sarap nga ng feeling pag nire-rev mo ung engine, its like being on the race track

Pareho tayo ng type sir, kaso hanggang tingin muna ako. Tight budget. May tama na din yung oto ko. pagawa ko muna. hehe. Php 4095 damage under insurance as it is the .5% of the insured amount. hehe...

Also maganda din yung TE37.

may promo po ba for the 1.6 hatchback? I'm thinking of swapping my current drive. I love it's styling and I'm a fan of the mazdaspeed3 since driving one sa california late last year.

Based from Mazda Phils. website kasama yung 1.6L V model (4 door and 5 door hatchback) Pero kung ako sa yo bro, check mo muna kung saan ka makakatipid, avail their promo or P.O. mo na lang using a bank loan.

Nung ako kasi nakatipid ako ng 100,000 sa pag P.O. compared with availing their promo. Yung 100,000 na savings na sinasabi ko ay yung savings from interest payments na kailangan mong bayaran within your loan period. Hindi nga makapaniwala yung SA na kausap ko noon sa natipid kong savings! Pero it's true!

I called mazda alabang yesterday, they said that on the all in promo (chattel mortgage, insurance and lto), 16k+ - 5 years for the mazda3 base model (east west bank if i'm not mistaken). When I asked for a trade-in, they mentioned that it's not within their promo if I exceed the current promo that they have, It's a tempting offer. What is P.O. by the way? I'm pretty new with this term.

What freebies may I ask if ever and what dealership "gives" more? hehe.

thanks!
