    body kit lang yan eh kaya nagmahal. get the "g" version, mas loaded yung interiors nun saka safety features, and then sa aftermarket ka na lang bumili ng bumper extenders, side skirts, and grills.

    Toyota claims that the S is the sport edition of the Altis.But buy the G,The S is a waste of money...if Toyota wanted a Sport edition they could've improved the performance more than just putting leather seats and body kits....just my two cents

    The Altis "S" is basically an Altis "J" that has been added with the ff items:

    *Front bumper chin and Fog lamp
    *Mesh type grill
    *15" Alloy Wheel
    *Rear bumper chin and spoiler
    *2-Din 1-CD Audio System with MP3
    *Leather Shift Knob
    *4-spoke Leather Steering Wheel w/ red stitch trim
    *Black "sporty" leather seats and door trims
    *Color-keyed door handles
    *TVSS w/keyless entry

    Even Toyota's '96-'97 AE100 in TRD Stage I form was more sportier than this one. :D

    Most of the extra bits are non-functional anyway.

    For me, I'll just get the 'J' and put on foglamps and alloy wheels from the more expensive Corollas.

    The 'S' is too boy racer for my age.

    hmmm. fafa tep, matanda ka na ba? ang pagkakaalam ko, bata ka pa eh... hehehehe.

    seriously, my friend owns an S... and yes.... number001's post is correct... it is basically a made-up J...

    so if you are getting one, its either you get the G, or the J, and have the J made-up...
    imho, parang bitin pa din yung 15" wheels ng S eh.... so if you are going to get the J, just put in a 17 incher, lower it by an inch, and it looks more beautiful than the S.

    IMO - it is not a good buy... puro porma lang... just get the E or G.

    get the E or G model mas sulit ka rito. if you really want the bodykits marami naman dyan magaling gumawa at mas affordable. pwede mo pa customize the design of bodykits na gusto mo.

    Ditto on the E or G. The S just supposedly looks sporty, pero wala namang perf upgrade.

    If the G is off your budget then get the E. Its cheaper than the S as its 816K compared to 830K. You can even get it down to 766K kung makuha mo yun 50K discount that toyota is giving away since the beginning of 2007. Ok na ang E kysa S kse you get a driver side airbag, ABS, brake assist, and electronic brake distribution. Yun matitipid mo, use it to get the aftermarket parts kung gs2 mo tlga porma ng S like the skirts, spoiler, chin, and leather seat covers. One more thing you get to choose between a manual and a matic tranny for the E. So kung gs2 mo pa makatipid get the manual tranny d b?

    Thanks for the replies mga ser. I'm gonna get the type E na. Grabe ang type S, 3 mos. pa bago magkaroon ng stock. Limited stocks lang daw kasi. O_O

    Mas maganda daw kasi interior ng type E kesa sa type J eh. Kapag nagkaroon nalang ng extra money tsaka namin paset-up yung type E na katulad sa type S. Hehe.

    yeah good decision go for the E na lang tapos dress it up better than the S kasi ang pangit ng rims ng S 15" lang ata and not even lowered kaya ang weird tingnan tuloy.

    I go for J and E only beacuse this variant is just simple car but presentable for all drivers. 1.8G is good also for you its a wooden scheme in console and on the top and buttom of steering wheel. For S variant Toyota makes it for a sporty and bling bling people lifestyle. On inside of S has silver scheme on the console and side of the door. It also has leather seat with red lining.

    For me as a simple guy who loves a low end variant like J and E and I still go for J or E.

    I have also plan to buy a Altis J or E. I'M STUMPED.

    So puro aesthetics lang yun "S"? Wala man lang performance?

    Nga pala ba't ganun yung mga altis, parang ang taas masyado ng dashboard unlike Honda? IMO, parang may polio yun altis, laki ng body liit ng gulong.
