Innova Gas Engine for Weekend User only

[GTcervan]

hahaha! grabe prang di ko p afford fortuner sir!
pero cge il try to check a G model instead as per majority of the suggestions here.

Hehehe maybe it's more expensive than a 500k innova by about 100-300+k depending on what model and the condition tsaka it has a larger gas engine although mas malakas din yan siguro sa gas kaysa 2.0 na innova. So baka di siya practical sa Inyo lol.

Btw parang the best looking yung unang facelift ng innova para sakin kaysa yung 2nd facelift.

Nothing wrong with a Vios already at 74k KM if you ask me. My 2001 Accord was at 195k KM when it was sold in early 2015.

actually i already sold my Vios!
main reason for selling it was:

-growing family
-don't want the unit be left with me with depreciated value!

may point! parang kawawa nman yun isang anak ko kung nsa third row sya haha!
pero cge po il look around G model. i came across a G variant but the year model is 2010 for 58T milease (8k per year)...
is it still ok to buy 2010 model of innova?

thanks!

Considering the mileage of G is true then it's fine.

hi, i am reading for quite sometime now re: timeless and undying argument of Diesel over Gas engine. It is quite informative for me. I am a Vios user with a 1.5 engine. And to be honest, I really don't feel the Gas price too expensive since majority of my travels are only this:

- home to mall, weekend only (usually 4km back to back)
- home to my in laws, once a month (50 km back to back with P500 unleaded, sobra p)
- out of town trip once in 3 months with P500 unleaded (calamba - tagaytay, calamba to san pablo, etc.)

now, I sold my vios and i'm planning to buy a second hand innova since we are already a family of 5:

2012 / V variant
2.0 Gas Engine
51T mileage for 5 yrs.
500k last price from seller (from asking price of 540k and original price way back 2012 is P1,1800,000.00)

fist question:

-is it ok for me to migrate to a bigger unit with the same type of engine considering me being a weekend user only?
-is the second price of 500k fair enough? but will still try to negotiate it to 490k at least for detailing, tune up, etc.

really hope you're inputs re: this boring inquiry haha!

thanks in advance!

i sold my reliable 1st gen 2005 innova G/AT gas a few months back with NO issues (has clocked more than 200K km). kung ikukumpara ko sa 51k mileage na prospect mo... parang bago pa sya. kung casa maintained ang car na ito, hindi na kailangan ang tune-up dahil reliable ang innova 2.0 gas engine. pati aircon nya ay napakalamig kahit 12+ years na noon. just watch out its shocks for any "wetting" spot, this indicates it's time to replace.
don't expect that the acceleration from dead stop is at par against your previous vios.
i guess the 500k tag price is just fair but if you can haggle more for possible discount much better.

good luck bro.

Thanks bro! as per seller it is still negotiable! actually here is the real story.

- he bought it (innova 2012 v 2.10 vvti) last oct 2017 as per open deed sale for 500k - 3 months only
- but he is posting the unit for 540, which fortunately I got to negotiate to 500k
- his reason for selling it for 500k is for his expenses like new set of tires (14K), LTO registration last month (5k) and the change oil from shell rought around 3-5k.

so basically yun babayad ko sa kanya 500k is balik investment on his part.. that's why im asking for more discount which he is favorably ok with.. I'm thinking of 10k discount for the 3 months depreciation value.. haha! hope he agrees!!

for our old folks, we have a sedan and a minicar wigo.
"upo na lang sila" pag-sakay. wala nang akyat-akyat. hirap sila kapag sa innova namin.
