i just want to know if this is still a good buy. i searched the forums and found a similar thread, but it was 2002 pa. what i got is mahal ang parts, very reliable and solid, very safe, etc. just wanted to know if this is still the general sentiment of tsikoteers out there. i am thinking of getting this kasi e.

thanks in advance

i forgot to mention, stationwagon pala siya.

its a good car, and i personally love that car, it's a really good family car..

but....

sa pinas, forget about it, sobrang hirap ang parts and hirap maintain ang interior at mga rubber moldings nya.

we had one of those before (yung 850 turbo wagon na high pressure turbo). at the 80k km mark the tranny started leaking and around 80k daw ipagawa. traded it in for a newer one nalang. hehe!
