good car fairly reliable. i'm told the taiwanese electronics inside the car break easily daw, but i really can't be sure since i don't own one. pero i have looked at a few in my quest to replace my old ondoy stricken car.

consumes a bit more gas than other cars of its class (most nissans do).

i eventually settled for a cefiro a32. magkasingpresyo lang sila eh. i figured kung magbabayad ako ng extra for gas, i might as well enjoy more space and luxury. have not regretted my decision.

pero those exaltas muntik nako talaga mapabili. very plush inside, rides softly and quietly, very very reliable (wag maniwala sa sabi-sabi na sirain ang nissan... sirain lang sila pag yung nabili mo sirain na to begin with, kaya i-check mabuti). easy to fix, parts are plentiful medyo mahal lang ng bahagya sa ibang models (the upside to that is matagal naman masira... yung bibilin mo na piyesa limang taon mahigit bago magluko ulit).

good luck on your purchase. remember, check the car carefully. dapat maayos tumakbo, tahimik makina, hindi nag ooverheat, nag sstart ng maayos, malamig ang aircon at umaandar lahat ng gauge instruments.

pag nakuha mo na, palit agad ng langis, battery, at goma. tune up na rin. timing chain na yan sa unless may maingay sa makina nung kinuha mo, no need palitan (kung mahigit 150,000 kms na yung kotse you may want to have that checked, though).
