    eheste, mga tsikoteers.
    Medyo mahaba na ang thread na ito and I would not be having time to review all the previous posts.
    God willing, bukas makukuha ko na ang Avanza unit ko, 1.5G Automatic. I preferred the manual pero la available ang color na gusto ko so, shift sa automatic.
    Now, tanong ko lang (ulit?), how much ba ang accessories, roof rack and bubutasan pa ba ang bubong pag kabit nito? Sa-an ba makakita ng mga accessories ng avanza somewhere in banawe?
    TIA.

I have learned a lot from this thread - in fact, I made my decision to get an Avanza for our first car, due to the positive reviews I have been seeing here, and the bits of good advice posted by owners.

    It took sometime (I was mostly out of the country), pero pagkatapos din ng assignment ko early this year, pagbalik ko sa bansa, I wasted no time in getting one. So finally, after 3 wks since last promised, advise sa akin ng SA eh available na for delivery yung 1.5G A/T unit ko.

    I will be a proud owner of one finally - tagal ko rin nagplano, medyo me paghihintay ng kaunti, but I finally realized my dream.

    More power to all of you, and keep on posting!
    Welcome bro! You wont regret your decision! ;)

    Hi to all,

    I previously posted that I was planning to buy avanza yung 1.3 J. The Loan was approved and I'm a bit hesitating kasi madami nagsasabi na under powered daw itong 1.3 na avanza, so i'm thinking twice as of this moment. The normal passengers would be 2 adults (including me) and 4 kids below 10 years old. Please make me decide naman po. Parang consider ko din kasi yung honda city na 1.3 although maliit yun compared sa avanza, please enligthen me, TIA. Hindi ba sa umpisa lang OK ang avanza then later on pag tumagal eh humihina na ang engine? niloloko nga ako ibang kasama ko, baka pag akyat daw ng baguio eh 1.3, pag baba 1.0 na lang. kaya naguguluhan tuloy ako.

    Well you can lift off the gas but stepping on the brake just makes you lose momentum if you are driving on a highway with a steep incline and you need to downshift to 2. I was just answering the question as it was asked and not telling them what to do based on how you drive a manual transmission car since it is an A/T. I have driven A/T and M/T cars for more than 20 years and stepping on the brakes prior to downshifting to a lower gear has never been a requirement in any A/T (hydro or electronic) I have used.

    Kung 4 ang kids mo mas ok ang Avanza dahil 7 seater sya. Kung matagal mo s'yang gagamitin, tamang tama ito pag laki ng mga bata. 1 lang ang anak ko, 2 1/2 years old, para kaming may mobile playground sa Avanza. Katabi ko ang mga gamit, ang kid at si Mrs. sa 2nd row, pwede pa akong magsakay sa 3rd row. Ok din ang power, maski puno.

    With my J variant, it's 3,500RPM exactly at 100 kph.
    Nag check ako uli. Yes 3500 RPM nga at 100 kph.

    maliit yung City for 2 adults and 4 kids. mine is 1.5 with 6 adults so 4 adults siksikan sa 2nd row and the last row is folded puno ng mabibigat na luggage travelling from qc to airport, kayang kaya naman so sa 1.3 with ur mention family members mukhang kayang kaya pa din

    Bro, the best thing you do is to test drive mo muna ang avanza . Kung under power ba o hindi ay minsan depende rin sa nagda drive... If you shift it at low RPM under power nga, apllicable naman sa lahat ng manual tranny un eh.. For me, i'm very satisfied with my J variant .. Kung lagi ka aakyat ng baguio at mabigat ang karga... then you choose the sedan na wala ka masyado maikakarga! And normally.... yung mga nagsasabi ng ganito...

    " baka pag akyat daw ng baguio eh 1.3, pag baba 1.0 na lang."

    Eh sila yung mga walang kotse.. ...

    I got information from some SA of Toyota na medyo underpower nga ang 1.3 kung puno ang sasakyan mo. Ito rin kasi ang first option ko before I decided to get an Innova J. Medyo madami lang kasi kami na adult kaya nagdecide ako to get a bigger vehicle. Sa case mo, 4 kids at 2 adults lang naman, pwede na yan kaysa mag sedan ka. Masikip para sa anim ang sedan. Ang hirap.

    to BoyT, Toinktoink, J*sh, Dfsantos, Maraming salamat po sa advice niyo, sige siguro nga the best na mag-test drive ako.

    to paulito, ano pa ang nadagdag sa new avanza aside from the color and airbag for 1.3J? Magkano ba cash-out pag nagpa reserve? refundable ba if ever na mag decide ka kuha sa ibang branch or ibang brand ng car?

    One more question, when is the best time bili car, kasi may time na parang ang dami ng promo, meron namang wala, so just curious kung may season ba na best time to buy a car. TIA.

    isang question pa pala, yung type J ba eh di cheap looking ang interior, and yung ride ba eh hindi parang nag da-drive ka ng tamaraw FX? What I'm trying to ask is yung comfort in driving, TIA po talaga.

    Bro, sa 1.3 J lang ba sila nag add ng new color. Wala pa ba other colors sa 1.5 G. Planning to get an Avanza by July sana may ibang colors pa sila ilabas sa 1.5 G

    Hmmm... if this happens the 1.5g AT version (813K) is in the price range of the Kia Karens LX and the Innova J D4D.

    Choices...choices....choices...

    Pwede kayang retrofit ang current Avanza with ABS?

    guys pag bibili kayo ng avanza and kung walang stock sa malalapit try asking on their other branches like pampanga or batangas. I got mine at pampanga all branches pila. nag down pa ako sa makati nyan pero sa pampanga ko lang pala mbibili. sa makati lagi sinasabi sir wala pa di pa dumadating where sa ibang branch meron na. ni withdraw ko deposit ko after buying at pampanga. look for ms bianca sa pampanga they are very accomodating. ang matagal lang talaga yung plate number, mag 1 month na wala pa din

    Yung Headlight cover ko pagdating ko sa bahay tangal na!!

    Yung isang door handle masyadong maraming double adhesive na

    Masyado din nilang madiin na tinulak/press sa body and chrome cover kaya
    nagasgasan an car.

    Tinanggal ko na kasi lahat front, side mirror and door handles (inner/outer)

    Yung Rear ok naman. maganda kabit.

    Yung front kinabit ko using 3M double adhesive * Php299.00

    Suggestion lang.

    Kung bibili kayo ng Chrome covers for head/tail light, side mirrors, door handles,
    Kayo na lang mag install at wag nyong gamitin ang built-in adhesive tape.
    Mas maganda ang 3M. Mas matibay at sigurado ang dikit !!
    Dapat nga bantayan bro. nag pakabit ako sa banawe ng alarm and door power and sympre natural na sa banawe ang pila. nung may lalabas na ang sabi sa akin nung isang gumagawa "sir ako na ang mag lilipat ng sasakyan nyo" sabi ko ok cge kakilala ko naman boss nya e. after 10 second meron akong narinig na malakas na "thumb" yun nabanga na yung bumper ko sa likod. sobra malas wala pang 24hrs na nasa kamay ko yung kotse nabanga na,.....

    Bro. na experienced ko din yung parang na hihilo ako at first especially pag nag aaccelerate. ngayon hindi na, inisip ko baka kc sa amoy ng bagong car or kc mas mataas ito kesa sa sedan kaya konting galaw lang mas ramdam ko. di ba mas matagtag sya kesa sa sedan. ala ako problem sa power nya (j series din ako), mas gusto ko nga pag puno kc di matatag. 500 km na ko, na drive ko na sya from cavite to antipolo 3 times, 4 people on board, no problem with power. ang initial promblem ko lang ay ang pag timpla ko ng clutch sa primera. compare ko sa old sentra ko, sobrang taas pala ng clutch ng avanza ko.pinaadjust ko lang okay naman. uuwi ako sa 25, then mag tatagaytay kami sa 26. 5 adults and 1 kid kami. plus gamit namin for 3 days. will update you kung ma feel ko na hirap sya
