Mga sir tanung ko lang, balak ko kasing bumili ng civic 99 pataas napansin ko mga accord na 99 pataas mababa na ang price bakit po kaya ganun samantalang.

I remember when we first bought our SIR 99 it was around 600k at that time while accord was around 1million. but now you can buy the accord 99 pataas for almost 230k to 300k. while an LXi civic 99 (pa lang) can cost 280k. Im just wondering kung may problem ang accord kung bat ganun n lang sya kababa.. dba po top of the line ang accord?

Salamat po.. Post ur offers na rin kung merun kayung alm.he he

    The Accord (and most 2.0L class cars) would be cheaper, or depreciates more because of:
    - poor fuel economy in city traffic
    - relatively more expensive parts

    If you drive on the highways a lot though, these are good cars to have.

    I guess this would also hold true between galant and lancers. I would opt for a lancer for economical advantage, mabigat anmg galant at magastos.

    ^what does it exactly mean pag sinabing poor fuel economy? Magastos sa fuel? What makes it un-economical compared to others?

    Uu sir napansin ko din na pati galant ang baba binebenta sakin hanggang 170 pero maayus p naman while pagtingin ko nga mga gsr at mga lancer ang taas ng price, gas lang ba ang dahilan ? dahil mas malakas sila sa gastos o pati parts?? ganun ba sila kadaling masira sir?? please enlighten me for family car sana ndi lang para sakin kaya naiisip ko sana na malaki ang bilhin. ayaw ko naman po mag suv dahil merun na kami...

    So true. Young people think that the civic is a super race car. Haha. Anyway, yes the civic is fast even in stock form. But speed is not everything. If you're looking for value for money, there are lots of alternative cars that are newer. You could get an 04 sentra, an 05 lynx for the price of a 12 year old civic.

    Larger engine displacement = poorer fuel economy.

    In PI, a 1.3 litre 4-cylinder engine is plenty because the maximum speed limit is usually 40kph. And the usual driving condition is bumper-to-bumper crawl anyway so you would almost never average 30kph unless you speed.

    Nde lang naman gas, factor din yung rarity at yung mga kung anu-anong kasama nung kotse. Yung parts naman nde problema yun dito sa Pinas basta japanese kotse mo, napakarami na mabibilan nyan. Yung madali masira naman, depende na un sa kung ilang kilometro na tinakbo ng kotse.. chaka kahit anung alaga gawin mo, me masisira at masisira dyan dahil sa "wear and tear". Second hand yang bibilin mo, asahan mo meron yang diperensya na nakatago.

    Ok naman ang Accord, yung tipid ng kotse sa gas eh.. minsan depende na yun sa kanang paa mo at pagkambyo.

    IN A WAY, nde naman ibig sabihin na mas malaki engine displacement, i.e. 1.3 liter, 2.0 liter, 3.0 liter and so on engine, eh mas malakas na sya sa gas. For example, kunwari 1.3 liter na engine yung kotse.. karga mo buong pamilya mo lagyan mo pa ng bagahe, natural bibigat kotse mo.. so para mapaandar mo sya ng medyo disente eh medyo didiin ka ng onti sa gas at medyo mapapadalas din ang tapak mo kasi every bitaw mo eh babagal agad yang kotse mo. Nde tulad sa kotseng mas malakas ang makina, pitikin mo yung gas, tatakbo.

    Hope this helps :D

    60KPH ang speed limit sa city. IIRC.
    Maporma is subjective.
    92-00 civics don't have ABS/EBD or even an airbag. Might be a few things to consider before you purchase.

    MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE SPEEDS

    2. On "through streets" or boulevards, clear of traffic, with no " blind corners," when so designated: 40 km. per hour for passenger cars, 30kph for motor trucks and buses.

    @dyanitor: thanks for the heads up. Wasn't aware of the 40kph limit.

    The 99-03 Accord is nice. If you can get the M/T version and if you can live with 6-7km/liter FC, go for it. It's bigger and definitely more comfortable to drive than the Civic.

    Just wanted to share...2 weeks ago I was scouting for an 04 Cefiro Elite. I chanced upon this seller who has 4 of them. They are former hotel service limos. They are equipped with LPG. The price will definitely fit your budget, may sukli ka pa for maintenance. The deal breaker for me was that it has this "H" logo on the plate.

    NLEX = 100kph
    SLEX = 80kph

    You would know because these speed limits are posted.

    Where there are no posted speed limits on city roads, it is 40kph for passenger cars.
