I think Makati is the worst place for an unregistered car. Although they will consider kung meron kang ipapakitang invoice. They allow you to use the car for 7 days from date of purchase/delivery. So magagamit mo pa rin yun but just the hassle kung maharang ka ng mga traffic enforcer. I saw 3 cars with no plates being apprehended by mapsa near makati-pasay boundary along buendia. i was just lucky enough since i was in the opposite lane at busy yung mga mapsa sa sinita nila.

Pwede mo pa rin ikabit yung set-up mo but be ready to sacrifice the last seat row since yun lang ang space na pwede ilagay yung mga equipments mo.
Please be inform also that warranty on electrical parts will be void if you install such (as far as i know). Medyo sayang din naman kung magbubutas ka eh bago pa yung sasakyan mo. If you change the mags, baka ma-void din yung warranty sa gears,suspension or anything connected to it. Anyway, you can put back naman yung original rim kung me mangyari to claim for the warranty.

Just ask sa SA mo kung pwede mag-change order ka. Di kasi ako sigurado sa ganitong scenario eh. Nung nagpa-reserve yung wife ko for the avanza, sabi ng SA namin eh refundable naman daw. So baka pwede siguro.

If you have the budget, go for the 1.5G. Wala ka ng masyadong gagalawin pa dun. Base on the FC of the avanza users in the forum, it shows na medyo matipid yung 1.5G kesa 1.3 or pareho lang the most. Yung price difference naman will compensate on the added accessories such as 15" Alloy wheels, Power windows, keyless power lock, power side mirror, mudguards, defogger, fog lamps, MP3 tuner, Airbag, rear spoiler, door pockets, seat back pockets and bigger engine.

ooops, sorry about that. thought you were a he, hehe!. :showoff: anyway, wala pa un unit sakin although nasubmit un loan application ko last week of dec. i heeded my bank agent's advice to process it around that time to get higher resale value (kasi nga mareregister un ng 2007). see my earlier posts on this...

Just talked to the sales agent yesterday and mukhang pinakamabagal talaga ang pila sa silver (for the J variant). unfortunately for me, i won't settle for anything other than that. mukhang aabutin pa ko ng feb. at kung magkaganun nga. baka plaka ko, sa abril ko pa makuha. huwag naman sana...

I thought di pinayagan ng LTFRB na maging taxi ang Avanza. I saw one sa may Sucat. Kulay puti.

alam ko yung white pang taxi talaga.

*ownertype, nakuha mo na Avanza mo?

Tnx sa info mo archie!

Huh? Di mo pa nakuha plate mo? Yung sa akin Dec. 5 ko kinuha yung sasakyan then Dec. 14 nakuha ko na plate ko. My SA said na 2 weeks yung plate kaya nagulat ako nung tinawagan ako nung SA ko after 9 days and pwede ko na daw kunin yung plate ko.

Sino ba SA mo? Mine is ruth.
