thanks to this thread i now know what to expect from my mirage... in terms of performance that is..
release na cya tomorrow... glx mt... malaking tulong un thread sakin kasi first time "full time" driver, first car...
malay ko ba kung mali na pala ung response nung kotse.. ^^ buti maraming info dito..

with regards sa SA and dealer experience, share ko un sakin..
ung 1st SA nmin, for me, is gagawin lahat para lang makabenta kaht di na totoo ung sinasabi..
parents visited the dealer, to check the car... my mom asked if green was included in the options for glx mt..
the SA said yes... when they got home i told them na hindi.. but mom didnt believe me coz she trusted the SA kasi supposedly cya talaga dapat may alam...
the next day she called the SA and asked again, still the SA said yes sa green... then mom made the reservation based from this info.
after two days, upon showing my mom info on the net, she called again and SA said yes still.
after a week (when she was about to register the coupon code sa online), SA called up and said "Ma'am di pala available green sa GLX MT, kalalabas lang po ng memo from planta na di kasama"... kalalabas lng ng memo?! absolute lie! this time i talked to her and told her that info was already in the internet way way back tas sasabihin nya kalalabas lang ng memo? she kept on insisting on the "memo" thing... then i told her that i know another agent in their dealer and he confirmed that SAs already know the color availability way before eraly bird promo started..

aftermath, we changed SA... nagalit pa cya when she found out, kaya my mom talked to the manager na mismo to explain our preference...
new SA is very very accomodating... laging may update, very accessible...
