[darkeye]

Saklolo!!!! Help po mga master, I plan to buy a sedan for my personal use and my choices is down between Civic 1.8S and the new Optra. I do not know anything about the chevy kaya please enlighten me. key info I need to know: 1. Fuel consumption 2. Maintenance 3. Performance 4. Comfort 5. Pogi points.

Based on the old threads covering the two cars:

Fuel consumption - Civic
Maintenance - Civic
Performance - Civic
Comfort - Civic (more space but the seats are kinda firm)
Pogi points - Civic

You'll definitely be happier with the Civic than the Optra.

Can't decide..choose the civic.

[G-daddy]

it's not even a fair contest between the two.

Civic most definitely.

Ditto vinJ's post, plus:

Resale Value - Civic

hindi mo kailangan ng saklolo, pumunta ka sa dealership, tignan mo, pakiramdaman mo, pagkatapos request ka ng test drive...

nasa iyo ang huling pasya kung alin doon sa dalawa ang bibilhin mo.

[swordsman]

This is a no-brainer...just search for Civic & Optra and read on. I'd even get a 2nd hand Civic than a brand new Optra, but that's just me

Why an Optra?
Wait for the New lancer or the New Corolla na lang.
Civic by a long shot.

bakit optra bro? maiintindihan ko pa sana yung comparison requirement kung Civic vs. Altis, Civic vs. Lancer or Civic vs. Ford Focus.....

well, i guess the way i've answered points out to the preference.

I'd choose the Civic

Why even consider the Optra against the Civic? ... buying an optra is almost like shooting yourself in the foot considering the other better options with less headaches.

Aside from the Civic, you might want to consider other cars like the Mazda3, Focus, and upcoming new model Corolla and Lancer.

Lots of choices out there.

The Optra is quite a comfortable car, with somewhat secure handling, but the engine is coarse, the transmission is terrible and fuel consumption is so-so. The only thing going for it is the low price and the nice body kits available on the SS models.

If you're looking for something to pitch against the Civic, look at the new Focus 1.8 MT Trend. If you're going to sacrifice fuel consumption, you might as well get a car that makes up for it with a premium feel.

Thanks a lot. Know I really know that I should go for the civic. Need ko na kasi ng ride ASAP kaya hindi ko na mahintay yung New Corolla. The only bummer is that the insurance for the civic is 29K .

CIVIC , CAR OF THE YEAR DUDE! No comparison.
