    guys need some info

    which is more practical between the 2 version? besides the cost, i thinking twice of getting the e version because of the climate control aircon. if ever the aircon got trouble, is it difficult to have service? more costly?

    besides the aircon what other specs should be considered between this two?

    thanks in advance

    being practical = not getting stuff u dont need. if u really want the most practical choice then the 1.6J is for u.

    it's more costly to service climate control airconditioning... but i'd get the e because of the safety features ... it has abs and airbags ... and an alarm na ...

    Mas pogi ang E. Lagay kang 17s, maski hindi ka na magpalower, ok na! Sama kasi kalye dito eh.

    sino ba sasakay? how about other cars like vios, city, jazz which are really practical nowadays? go shopping also and choose which fits your need.

    yup, i think e is a better choice. guys ur right the mags need a change.
    i always use the nlex. so i think id better use bigger car than vioz, city or jazz.

    do you think having 17 ingh mags and use it often NLEX. is wise move. coz some says its not

    IMHO. 15in is ideal. immediatly after magexpire warranty ng car namin, i replaced the wheels from r15 195/60 to r17 225/45. now i'm back to rim 15. reasons:
    17in
    con - matagtag, mahal mag-palit ng gulong and parang medyo nag-s-skid yung abs pag bigla preno. Super ingat ako sa lubak lalu sa rough road. also heard that mas mabilis masisira suspension parts (so far wala namang nasira sa car suspension)
    pro - handling in terms of cornering is better, looks also a lot better on the 17.

    15in
    pro - parang mas-matipid sa gas, mas masarap sumakay kasi hindi masyado matagtag, mura goma heh he.
    con - mas maporma talaga 17 (more so if lowered)

Which is more practical altis 1.6 J or the E version?
