Default Time to replace... 1.5G Vios or 1.6L Optra?

Guys

Got an old 1.6L '99 GLI Corolla I want to trade-in... but don't know to which car


a) 1.5G Vios A/T
-top of the line
-710,000
-looks cool with digital stuff
-small though and I feel kinda awkward with small cars. Nasanay me sa Accord.
-tipid sa gas so it's a plus.

b) 1.6L Optra A/T
-680,000
-secondliner model (LS came out with 6cd changer and Airbags)
-First time to own a Chevy so not sure about the re-sale value. Am suffering this dilemna with my Ford Escape.
-Not a compact car so ok naman dba...

we have a 2004 vios A/T. what i can say is, mabaho aircon. sa overtake, kailangan talaga floor the gas tapos may mga shift shock pag lipat ng gear. lalo na pag overtake.... sabi nila typical daw yung sa matic na hindi cvt. look for vios club website para alam mo mga hinaing ng mga may vios. btw, ang matic na vios when n drive, 2, or L and ur on a slope, umaatras. normal lang daw yun sabi ng toyota. btw, ours gets about 17 km/l

dont know about optra pero may mga nagsasabi its a lemon car and sucks sa fuel economy.

lakas nga sa gaso ang optra. average ata nya is around 6 k/l city, 8-9k/l h-way.
ayaw mo lynx? o altis? o civic?

optra wagon looks nice.

am open to vios or city and jazz. optra came to my mind kasi it's mura and ka-price ng vios/city/jazz tapos sedan class pa.

dba mahal vios at 710k compared to 680k optra? jazz is 685 1.3CVT... mas mulawag ba ang jazz compared to city and vios? scary naman yung reviews ng vios parang sirain... umaatras meaning hina talaga?

Now that jazz and city are included prospects... am more confused. will test drive 1.6L optra this week and vios 1.5G too... OK ba 1.3L CVT ng honda City and JAZZ in gas consumption?

Although I noticed in the polls that Vios outranked City...

I prefer Toyota over Chevy. So, Vios na.

Suggestion ko wait until next week muna before buying. March 3 ang official debut ng all-new Civic. Mukhang pasok naman yung budget mo sa entry level trim.

The Altis is also a good alternative. The downside is malapit na yata ang all-new model. I think late this year na.

how about the new honda city 1.5 vtec? ganda na ng bagong itsura nya. parang maliit na civic pero malakas ang engine pero matipid sa fuel consumption. pwede pa ma fold yung rear seat nya .
