Mazda2 [MERGED]

[scharnhorst]

160 * 4000rpm, impressive for its class
musta na fc? kaya ba maabot 12-14kpl?

I reached 14.5 km/liter highway under the 1000 km mark during an NLEX-SCTEX run to subic and back. this was keeping it at maximum of 120 kph.

lately it's been a mix of highway and city driving (I'll 75% city, 25% higway), with the highway parts being screaming 100-140kph runs, and I'm getting 11-12 km/liter.

there's another "2-bar" tank and 350+ km odo reading. I'll gas up tomorrow, will let you guys know the km/liter for that tank.

the odo's around 2,200+ now

btw, I caught a couple of nice-looking ladies taking their pictures with our mazda2. :rofl:

I use either shell super or petron xtra unleaded. hehe

[scharnhorst]

got 11.6 km/liter on the latest tank fill-up (~360 km)

mostly city, but this included a tagaytay run with all the associated horrible traffic (45 minutes from beyond shell to the alabang flyover.)

just for kicks, messing with a neighbor's city:



robocop and mouse staredown.

Nice red, parang rallye red ng Jazz. Nice FC figures, the previous reviews from other countries are indeed true.

Parang nakakatakot tuloy yung Honda City dito. :hysterical:

[scharnhorst]

*lamborghinione: still hoping it'd improve over time

*renzo: haha. the city still strikes me as the "handsome" among the subcompacts. the 2 is... cute.

*laswoosh: baka nga ikaw yung chineck out nya!

Hey guys, ano ba talaga problema at may nasty thud pag mejo big yung potholes? Is it the suspension? the wheel itself? Kasi I had my under chasis checked sa mazda, natakot ako na baka natatamaan na yung ilalim kaya i hear the sound (our subdivision and the streets near it going to SLEX is like pothole heaven). wala naman daw tama. nakita ko rin. malinis naman. Btw, bakit walang under cover yung car natin? anyway, bigger wheels kaya will make the car more "sturdy"? or the suspension is just too soft?

btw, may tama rin yung mags ko sa front, nasty gash. huhuhu.

Lastly, I'm about to get it checked for my 1k mileage. Bakit ganun, yung blue temperature light mas matagal mawala lately. Dati 3 secs lang after start, nawawala na. Now, mga 1 minute bago mawala. Normal ba yun? Thanks.

yep. napansin ko rin to, may nasty thud pag big potholes.
hmmm. I think this has something to do with the front suspension being directly bolted on to the body. I'm not sure though...

hmmm. more rubber would theoretically dampen bumps more, switching to lower profile tires would make the ride worse

yung undercoating, it's the same color as the body, so hindi masyadong halata

in our unit, the blue temp light does take a while before going away since we first got it

guys please i need your inputs po..

my officemate is selling his 1 moth old m2 hatchback.. 4 years nakaloan yun sa bank for 16k.. ako nalang daw ang magtuloy pero bayaran ko nalang daw yung downpayment nya with LTO, insurance, chattel amounting to 210k nalang daw (222k yun actually).. ang maganda pa, since close friend ko ito, kahit hulugan ko nalang daw yung downpayment.. sabi ko 5k every month, pumayag naman.. good deal na ba ito mga bro? o dapat ihaggle ko yung downpayment nya since kung tutuusin second na ito and depreciated na..
lastly, good buy ba talaga M2? di ba ako magsisisi sa huli since 4 years kong babayaran..
i would really appreciate your inputs about this.. thank you..

[jozef_10]

what's his reason for selling? baka hindi niya nagustuhan ang FC. haggle down the dp, para ka nang bumili ng brand new niyan. despite the brief time he owns the car, 2nd hand pa din niyan

+1 on sir jozef. why is he selling his hatch?

you should still haggle the price down - it's still secondhand.

well his reason was simply para makapagipon sya.. nabigla lang kasi ata sya sa pagbili.. besides that, alam ko wala na.. gusto kasi maginvest ng stocks and bumili ng lupa..
mga hanggang magkano ko kaya ihahaggle boss?

[tidus1203]

OT: Nyek! Impluse buy!!! Baka mamaya impulse buy din sa stocks and land yari tayo dyan!

[scharnhorst]

sarap nun a. biglang bili ng kotse?

sabihin mo libre nalang yung chattel, insurance at LTO

[mda]

Kung maliit lang yung discount, you're still better off buying brand new.

I don't think anyone will disagree.

You're already paying 700+k in the long run.

Ma eenganyo ka dahil sa maliit na discount?

My thoughts lang.
