Suzuki ALTO [ARCHIVED]

[dingch]

Altoids! Very cute nickname indeed. And with the size of this compact it is indeed comparable to a certain breath mint with the same name.

I just got mine today! I got a Deluxe. The very last one at Suzuki Kalookan! I'm very happy with it.

I hope I can be more help, but the reason I got the Deluxe is I didn't want to worry about adding anything.

Good luck hunting for your rims!

Yup i think ill do that. The deluxe rims and caps are not bad at all! Excited na talaga ako.

Maraming salamat sa info sir... its a big help to us... its our first car and we are on a tight budget... there is no room for error in choosing a car... we juz need a basic car to take us from point a to b... hatid sundo sa school for my son and a service car for my wife going to work... we dont need the extra space since we are a family of average sized people... although im hoping that my 13 year old son would exceed my height of 5'7...hehehe.. we dont need a speedy car bacause we dont drag race... ive got a motr bike for that... hheheh... anyway, maraming salamat ulit for the valuable info....

hello mga altoids.. cute name indeed.. id like to join sana sa club ng altoids, after reading this thread i finaly bought my alto yesterday lang.. i wanted to have sana a de luxe unit but d problem is sobrang wala ng stock so i tried driving the standard unit which they have okay naman ung steering and wala nga lang power windows, sa sobrang excited ko kinuha ko na standard but no regrets naman alto is a winner talaga.. thanks sa lahat ng mga altoids sana mag kita kits din tau.. drive safe..

[dingch]

Yo altoids! End of this month daw magkakaroon ng new stock ng deluxe and standard according to 2 dealerships. im busy preparing my budget for that day. I saw up close the new facelifted picanto. ok din ang look pero 550k naman. That only encourages me to wait for my alto.

If you're not so sure about it, best to let her practice in secluded places first. ;)

Hi guys!

Sorry haven't been much around lately.
Welcome to all new alto owners!
I missed the EB last May 31 sino nakapunta? how was it?
Medyo marami na akong nakikitang alto sa daan sinasabayan ko pa nga hehehe I even saw an alto taxi while I was driving to Nagtahan, since white din alto ko mukha na rin taxi alto ko waaaahhh

Medyo tipid ako driving now I only drive during weekends (nagtahan sto domingo and caloocan)and pagpunta sa badminton court 2x a week, malapit lng kasi dito. Going to work MRT LRT na lng ako para tipid. hehehe. Three weeks ago bago maging 52 ang gas nagkarga ako ng 1000 this week lng naubos hehehe

see you around guys drive safely and God Bless!

To Alto owners

Maganda pala tong Alto. Una, matipid sa gas. malambot ang clutch nya. napakadaling i shift ang kambyo. Maliwanag ang headlight. Malakas ang aircon. Mataas angh ground clearance nya. Hinde nga ako naka experience ng sayad sa ilalim. Medyo matigas ang suspnsion nya kaya maski 5 kayong nakasakay ay wlang syad pag may humps. Sabi nga ng kasama ko sa opis. Everyday dependable car. I bought a standard model dito sa Suzuki manila bay this June 2008 . Taas na kasi price ng gas. what is important ay yung nagagamit mo yun Alto maski saan ka pumunta. Kayang kaya ka dalhin. Sana nuon pa pala ako gumamit ng Suzuki alto.

very very nice to hear that owners are satisfied by there altos. oh altoids what a nice name totoo ba talagang nakaka 15km/l sa traffic? totoo ba talaga? di ko parin ma imagine eh hehehe

[Fargin]

yup nagawa ko na sa standard alto ko yung 15km/l. just be easy on the brakes, wag mashado marami karga and most importantly, i always inflate my tires (f and r) to 31psi although nakalagay sa side ng door is 30psi lang eheheh

[dingch]

Hello all. Im the one who keeps on calling everyone altoids. the same person who keeps on posting why i like the alto. Yesterday, i intentionally parked beside an alto in church. I was driving an suv so the alto really looked small and puny beside me. Pero in reality, mas excited pa yata ako magdrive ng alto at that moment . I even told my wife to take a look inside the car because she hasnt seen one up close. At the end of the mass, i saw the family that owns the alto. Dad and mom in front and 2 kids at the back. They drove off, no sweat at all. Parang i can hear them say, "15kms/liter ito compared to your 6kms/liter". Totoo nga, that really makes a difference.

Ironic talaga. Ako na lang yata dito sa forum ang wala pang alto.

hi guys!

I'm searching for a forum for suzuki alto but i have found none so I decided to start this thread.

I bought my alto last july 22 I got a white de-luxe model. So far so good. I live in caloocan and made the rounds of makati pasay diliman nagtahan sto domingo as part of my weekly work routine. My P500 gas lasted with more to spare. Great savings!

I put window visors, mud guards, change the horn(it only has one so I bought a pair) keyless entry and alarm, sensors for backing up and a pair of oval pioneer speakers 460 watts at the back.

Hope to find alto owners here too.

God Bless!

Reddy,

I think I saw yours yesterday at tramo in the old crispa that is now a grocery store, forgot the name of the store. And I think I saw that blue one also that is uber setup in the outside. It looked good specially the spoiler.

Anyway has any of you tried getting Rota Wheel for your mags? Called them a couple of weeks ago they said they got some that will fit our Alto.

Heres there website: http://www.rotawheels.com/

Coz I was thinking of getting the gray color of this: http://www.rotawheels.com/wheels.asp?wheelid=45
Will they fit?

I wonder the quality of their work.

Congrats to every one that newly acquired Alto. Sana mag ka EB around Pasig (taga pasig kase ako hehehe, biased)
