[speedbluestar]

Guys may massuggest ba kayo sedan with a budget of $25K.

Eto pinagpipilian ko:
1. Honda Civic
2. Honda Accord
3. Hyundai Elantra


Pros and cons please kung may maissugest pa po kayo. Alam ko lang mag drive pero di pa kaganun kaextensive ang knowledge ko when it comes to cars. Please consider na US based po ang tanong ko. Thank you!

accord

These cars are near identical in every way, The Hyundai Elantra is cheaper than the Civic. If you are interested in the looks of the coupe, go for the Elantra, eto comparison.

But personally I'd go for civic.

Go for 2nd hand cars. Mabilis mag depreciate ang mga sasakyan ngayon.

Yung boss ko nakabili ng Mazda 3 version for a little over 400k.

eto lang yung sa akin kasi , i used to have an accord which is not the latest and i only buy it 2nd hand

  ayoko mag bayad monthly kasi , you will probably pay yours monthly for 36 months

pero yun nga , it's a 96 accord 4 door nabili ko sya ng $1500 lang after 2 years or of using it nabenta ko ng 2K

since Japanese cars hold value here in the US , so i choose accord coz 5 years from now you can still sell it in value na medyo mataas kesa sa Blue book

and my auntie's Civic EX 2005 , binibili ng dealer for 5K which is a fair price and 8 years old car na sya



Although Hyundai Elantra is a hot car for today , which is no doubt about it

but value? i don't know it's a korean car , so selling it in the future is a big question mark you have to think

Tama to in US, Japanese cars holds its resale value, but if the TS is financially capable to afford brand new. I'd say, go for the Civic. The Elantra is nice but the resale is bad Civic has the best resale and probably the most reliable the only advantage of Elantra over Civic is its longer comprehensive warranty. Try to search online for comprehensive review and let you decide from there as you best know your priorities in a car whether they be safety(elantra warranty), fuel economy(civic), speed(civic), etc. Good luck.

Thank you mga kaespiya! Hyundai Elantra gusto ko sana kaya lang andaming against eh, kesyo yung resale value, baka mahirapan daw maghanap ng parts someething like that.

How about the 2014 Toyota corolla S? I forgot to include that car? Newly designed pero spec wise parang same old pa din naman.

sayang pera sa KOREAN car

yeah the resale value really holds , pero yun not saying go for 2nd hand example lang naman yung akin

civic did really holds a value , a lot like a lot!

[Rockford]

aside from the comparison that i posted, next thing you need to consider is the re-sale value hence choose honda rather than hyundai
after the re-sale value, go for fuel efficiency so go for honda civic instead of accord.

Salamat sa mga input mga kaespiya, honda civic na kukunin ko. Ngayon yung kung anong klaseng "trims" naman kukunin ko? Im choosing between Ex/ExL.

Dapat ba yung may built in navigation na? Parang gusto ko bumili ng separate nav made by or using google maps.

google maps is having trouble lately , if you are planning for a seperate gps i suggest magellan and garmin

I don't have any probs with Elantra coz in Manila....it seems to sell more than a civic. But if it can still wait, i suggest to wait the whole of 2014 out, coz the new models are coming out 2014-2015

[jonson]

ok akong honda civic. very reliable.
