Your options:
-10 year old 2nd hand japanese car (ex: corolla, sentra, lancer)
-brand new (imported) Chinese or India brand econo-car (ex: Tata Nano)
-brand new pinoy brand car (from the makers of the PHUV & e-jeepney)

If I had money to burn I'd buy a Tata Nano and drive it only within the village (church and grocery).
Realistically - NO. I'd buy a Toyota!

bili ako ng jeep na segunda mano. Pasada galore while playing led zeppelin on the 8 track stereo.

I will go for a used Toyota. Tapos immediately pagkabili change fluids lahat pati oil tapos tune up na din...
Chinese cars? NAH! Just read the Chery thread, 2 years pa lang sira na!
India cars like the NANO? NAH! Its a death trap!
Pinoycars? NAH! Might be even worse than China. Sorry when it comes to big money I am not very patriotic.Last edited by tidus1203; June 20th, 2010 at 11:40 PM.

Pipilitin ko yung officemate ni misis na ibigay na yung 03 vios niya sa akin, pinagiisipan daw kasi niya ibenta pero ang gusto 300k
Pag bumigay siya, ibebenta ko after 1 week ng 300k

I don't think an R34 fits within the budget.
Kung Cefiro-body... kasya pa.

This depends. If I already have a daily car, I would consider a micro-car... Pinoy car... would depend on what engine was inside. If it were, say, a Suzuki engine, I'd think about it.
Secondhand, within the 250 budget, I don't even have to settle for Japanese. Five year old Ford Lynxes fit... and those are Japanese engines, anyway. (Mazda). And with that I get dual airbags, a strong crash structure and chassis, a sunroof, CD changer, sophisticated suspension tuning and leather. Also not difficult to maintain or too bad on fuel, as long as you buy a manual. Seven year old Sentra 1.3s might actually come within the budget, also.
There are cheap Chinese cars that only cost around 150k pesos in China... and would only cost about 200k-240k pesos if sold locally. Motorcycle engine, so they're actually fuel efficient. The only problem is locals won't buy them. (the start-up that tried failed) Crash safety of a tricycle, and you can't even jump out of one in a crash (you can jump out of a trike), and there's no AC or creature comforts beyond a blower and a cruddy Chinese stereo.
And our government won't register them for the road. Can't decide whether they're motorbikes or cars. :hysterical:Last edited by niky; June 21st, 2010 at 10:50 AM.

Uh, 2nd hand japanese cars nalang.
China cars, hell no. Scary eh.
Pinoy made vehicles, mas lalong hell no. Baka pag 120kph takbo ko, kumalas na yung gulong. :hysterical: -, well ... that's if kung aabot pa ako ng 120kph. hehehe
