    *jut703 thanks for the information u handed on me. No first hand driving a car with ABS kasi unang car ko ay owner type jeep then xwind then vios j all walang abs kasi yun lng talaga ma afford ko. Plano ko sooner mag mux pero second hand lng muna baka may mga segunda mano na mux jan na binebenta.

    Ingat na lang sa pagmamaneho

    I always believe, ABS or any cars built with hi tech safety features wont save you if its really your time

    I definitely agree that the driver is still a car's best safety feature. I understand that what you're saying is that if it's your time, no matter how many safety precautions you take, you're dead.

    But following that logic and applying its converse, if it's not yet your time, then no matter how reckless you are, you'll be fine. So perhaps seatbelts, airbags, and ABS are unnecessary? What's the delineation between safety and recklessness if all is up to fate?

    Yes, rather have it and not need it than need it when you don't have it.

    get the "E" variant. canvass ka daming promo ng toyota.

    the benefit of ABS is very useful in sticky situation as stated by previous post.

    nun kumuha ako ng vios ko, i am also planning to get the "J" variant, kasi mas mura, pero it turns out mas mura and "G" (spec up "E" variant during my time, gen 2.5 1.3G vios akin).

    kasi sa mga idadagdag mo like:

    TVSS (Code Alarm lang ito pero napaka pricey ng code alarm) mga more or less 9.5k para lang sa key less entry with standard key plus another 4.5k para sa alarm mismo. plus (not sure) ung mga actuator ng pinto - plus this may ba a hazard if you are wanting to preserve the warranty and hindi kasama ito sa standard insurance repair when time comes, other wise if you plan to include it on your renewal magkakaaadded cost ka sa insurance dahil hindi standard deliverable ng CASA.

    Mags, well standard na naka 15" mags ang vios E. may napapangitan, may nagagandahan - pero at least naka mags ka na kesa naman paglabas ng kotse mo ibebenta mo patalo ung hub cap, rim at goma para makabili ng mags - estimated cost more or less 18k to unlimited cost depende sa mags na trip mo. ung spare tire mo pala naka mags na din. plus kung mag papalit ka ng mags normally hindi magifit ung nut ng rim sa mags na aftermarket or OEM. ung OEM 350 petot and isa multiplied by 16PCS. ung aftermarket, 1.3k ung aluminum pero sa pagkakabasa ko dito sa tsikot, medyo hindi maganda iba pa din ung steel lugnuts. same issue sa insurance at warranty.

    fog lamps, well per my experience hindi kasing ganda/liwanag ng gen 2 un fog lamps ng gen 3, ung may nagsasabi pa din na mas maganda buga ng OEM na fog lamps kesa sa cheepo type foglamps - although may magandang alternative i think "DEPO" and brand pero mas okay pa din daw ang OEM. same issue sa insurance at warranty.

    at syempre ABS, hindi nabibili ng aftermarket - sa unang tatlo pa alng halos ung deficit ng cost mo eh magpapareho na sa price ng "J".

    pero syempre, to each his own - opinyon ko lang ito nung nagplano kami ni esmi kumuha ng vios.
    sa car electronics ang hindi ko lang naman gusto eh (1) ung control ng mga abubot sa manibela, (2) ung power side mirror - ung 97 civic ko kahit magpapalit palit kami ni esmi sa pagmamaneha hindi naman nababago settings eh medyo extreme pa kami sa adjustment ng upuan.

    ung "e" pala naka standard 2din na radio na with bluetoth, not sure kung may video or reverse cam ready - pero eto panalo na din ito.

    sana makatulong pre.

    ulitin ko lang napakaimportante ng ABS, ung sentra ko na walang abs at 50kph, sa edsa nag skid ako at hindi ko macontrol ung kotse - same issue sa civic, pero sa vios na may ABS kahit madiinang preno at may kasamang kabig swabe.

    any idea how much it would cost to have these install?
    front fog lamps
    Touch Screen 7" display
    TVSS
    Wireless Doorlocl
    Muffler Cutter
    Side Visor

    mga around 20k lang kaya ito?


    why not E?
    kasi mas mura monthly ng J
    dont really care about ABS and Mags
    difference is 110k+
    at 50k difference, you will never know when you would need the ABS.
    kala ko di ko din kailangan ito before until next week where i almost met an accident and ABS saved me.
    the E, i think now has factory installed LCD HU, central keylock. the visor, costs around 2-3k.
