Help on buying a nissan.

[scratch]

Good Day mga Paps,

I am planning to buy a car this week, 2nd hand syempre. Am planning to buy a Lancer GLS 2001, Honda Civic VTi or a Nissan Exalta STA. I am now leaning on a Nissan. This will be my first time to ha nissan car and not knowing any pros and cons of a nissa. Can someone answer few of my question before putting a period onto a nissan.

1. Any Transmission problem with an A/T tranny?
2. Any suspension Problem? including spings, rockers etc...
3. Common Engine problem?
4. Fuel Consumption on a A/T Tranny?

I would really appreciate for your comments and suggestions. BTW I am looking for a Black Nissan Exalta STA anyone selling?

Many thanks in advance.

nissan exalta sta daw ay magastos sa gas unlike the old sentra na umaabot 15km.l

i own a 1995 nissan sentra sobrang dali imaintain. pati yung ilalim siguro every 6 months ako pacheck. sa A/T hindi ako makakabigay ng coment kasi M/T boy ako. ride comfort trip ko talaga sentra tamang tama lang

so kung kukuha po kayo ng exalta since platform rin po niya ang sentra eh okei na po yan yun lang nga SABI nila magastos daw sa gas

ay btw common engine problem ng nissan is sa idling at kadyot dami nagpapagawa ng ganyan pero sa akin nung nangyari sa akin yun linis at tune up lang okei na

10 lang daw yung STA eh? daw. haha para sure kung makakakita po kayo ng second hand itanung niyo po sa previous owner

maganda po ang sentra/exalta talaga sa comfort para sa akin kasi malamig aircon at hindi matagtag tapos magaan yung steeringwheel kaya ang sarap idrive

Ok parin saakin yung 10 sir, hehehe yung lancer ko kse is 7-8 lang hindi na makatarungan yun hehehehe. Siguro para maging tipid na din is kelangan lang ng tuneup palagi and clean filters para sunog na sunog ang gas talaga.

10 on a 1.6 engine is great.

but i would bet most exaltas on the buy and sell lots would get 8-9 (which i still consider normal to good. abnormal is when you get 5-6, like ford expedition). a/t designs have come a long way since the 1979 "hydramatic" types that get 4-6 to a liter. fairly modern a/t cars, if in good shape and driven properly, do not consume that much extra fuel. if you get 10 on m/t, then you'd get 9-9.5. really negligible considering you're super comfy inside and your left leg doesnt feel like a wooden post after a 3 hour traffic jam in edsa.

exalta is a nice car. very well appointed inside. are you getting the leather interior model? please do, the leather feels nice, unlike the cheap leatherette they sell in banawe for 3K a set, the exalta's leather is the genuine article. watch out for overly rundown interiors though, get the freshest looking you can find.
