mbt,

kaya nga if i were to get a cefiro i would rather get the brougham than the elite kasi maliit na lang difference nya sa price kapag 2nd hand..

i dont recall who told me this but..he said sometimes its better to get either the low or mid version of a car model than the top of the line because youd get more value out of it when you sell it..i think its true just look at the classified maliit na lang diff sa price elite at brougham same year minsan pag mas mababa ang mileage ng elite mas mataas pa price..

The Cefiro's engine is silky smooth and whisper quiet. It's not quick coz of the weight, but it's fast and stable. No problem hanging around the 160kph+ range.

I think what adversely affected Nissan cars in general was after sales service. But, i think this has been corrected as well.

Ayos yan pre, tapos throw in 18" wheels. Sweet!

we have a 1999 cefiro elite. hanggang ngayon, wala pang pinapalitan na parts except for oil filter, and just recently, the tires.

and, as said before here, very stable at high speeds. i didn't notice i was already running at 180 km/h until i glanced at the speedometer.

yun lang nga, medyo mapili sa gas. i tried filling it up with regular unleaded gas with 93+ RON, tumotope during hard acceleration.

ok after sales service ng nissan, particularly sa nissan central manila, where we have it serviced. PMS, half day, sigurado tapos, may body wash pang kasama.

The Cefiro VQ engine is picky when it comes to octane rating IMO (at least in the '97-'01 A32 model). The engine requires at least 95 octane.

As aforementioned, 17's or 18's lang ang katapat niyan and the car really looks great... plus you'll still have enough rubber to protect the rims from potholes. The stock headlights of the '97-'99 Elite are also kinda weak IMO (the ones with the glass headlights). Just put relays, rewire and Bosch ceramic sockets, then put a Philips or Osram 90/100W bulb and the lighting is very much improved already.

The lens on the '00-'02 Cefiro (the plastic ones) can get dark i think, it can be cleaned though.

So, what car did you get???

**marshall** · January 26th, 2003 09:31 AM

personally i liked the body before the current model. what year did that model came out? but if i had the money a cefiro would definitely be on the list followed by the accord and lastly by the camry.
