Default Help me spend my money! (120-130k)


First time car buyer here. I have 130k to spend on a 2nd hand car. Tulong naman pumili mga sir. Here are my options.
1. Sentra Series 3 EX Saloon
2. Mazda Familia
3. Toyota Corolla XL

Priority is low fuel consumption tsaka low maintenance. I can live without power steering, power windows, locks, etc. Pero gusto ko din sana ng malakas na aircon kaya first choice yung sentra. Also, gusto ko sana nothing older than 1995 for personal reasons. Salamat in advance mga master.

Wag Kia Pride, reliability is so susceptible. I'd rather get an small body Corolla than a Kia Pride that is newer...

Cool Re: Help me spend my money! (120-130k)

eto lang ba choices mo? medyo malakas sa FC ang familia and sentra compared to the corolla, pero parang shortchanged ka naman kung corolla XL ang kukunin mo. believe me. hahanapin mo yan power steering as the time goes on.

other choices:

a. Corolla XE (nice FC, with power features)
b. Lancer Itlog GLi (average FC with power features)

You will be hard pressed to find a Big Body Corolla (unless former taxi) and Lancer itlog with P130k...

How about these two mga sirs...

Di po ba maganda ang fuel consumption ng EX Saloon series 3 kahit EFI na makina nya?

Medyo seryoso po yung ok lang na walang power steering. XL 94 ang dating minamaneho ko kaya sanay na sa pawis steering. Kaya din medyo gusto kong nothing older than 1995 model, para umasenso naman . Binenta kasi yung 94 corolla na yun for 130k around 3 years ago. Salamat!

mas ok ata iyo. ganda pa ng color. but of course, it could be different sa live.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Sentra consumes around 8-9 kpl/city, so i would say it is still reasonable.
pero, once you've tried driving a car with power features, you will never go back to a pawis unit. tutal gusto mo na din naman umasenso eh, why not give yourself a break and get a power equipped car?

agree! take the power steering car, mas ok talaga yung power steering. the sentra looks good IMO... at that price you can still have enough left for gas for 2 months or a little bling bling

naalala ko lang.

why not get a Mazda 323 (yung maliit na unang labas.) i am sure you can get something with that budget and baka may sobra ka pa for maintenance and repairs.

with that you get:

a. all power features
b. fuel efficient (1.3 cc engine)

hanap ka pa pre.
