altis ka na. mahal maintenance ng civic. 2 of my friends have civics 2001 model and another friend has corolla 2001 din. they compared notes and they noticed na mas maraming lumalabas na kalampag sa civic compared to corolla. all cars office-bahay lang with occassional out of town trips, and almost the same kilometer readings.

Pangit ang Honda.. fad lang sila just like the gonuts donuts.. :P ang sama pa ng after-sales nila.. :rolleyes:

hahahaha. ok sa hirit ah.

 

hindi naman siguro. although i am not a honda fan. honda makes quality cars here and abroad. hindi naman sya siguro fad lang gaya ng hehehehehe gonuts donuts, billiards o badminton. hehehehehe again.

 

 

with regards to the after sales service, depende siguro sa casa. may maayos magbigay ng service, may hinde. ganun din naman sa toyota and sa other cars eh.

Google, dito lang naman sa Pinas sikat ang Honda.. tayo kseng mga Pinoy mahilig makigulo kung anong bago (kumpara sa ibang Japanese cars, Honda kse pinaka-last na pumasok sa bansa natin). Nakita mo na ba ang latest survey tska nabasa mo mga post ng mga nauna sa kin dito? Kaya.. papalubog na talaga ang Honda.. fad lang talaga sila.. unlike Toyota na household name na. B)

 

After-sales na sinasabi ko... madalas wala silang piyesa! :rolleyes:

 

Sa tutuo lang, maka-Nissan ako.. lamig ng aircon eh. :P

physical appearance - i go for altis... the design is better than civc.

riding comfort - i still go for honda... have drive honda, toyota and nissan, and honda's suspension is still the best. toyota's suspension is the worst.

service - their customer service are at par. friendly and accomodating.

spare parts - toyota is the best. cheaper and readily available.

palubog? really now....how come Honda is among the only ONE OF TWO jap car companies that is purely japanese owned.

 

unlike your favorite nissan, it needed a takeover from Daimler-Chrysler during the late 90's coz they were already losing money. Having a cool aircon is not the sole basis to consider a car good. But i must admit, women like cars that has good air conditioning and i agree with you that Nissan's Calsonic AC is really good. ;)

 

With regards to Honda Casas, avoid those owned by the Ayala's, they are really known for bad service, with the exception of Honda Shaw.

 

As for the suspension, we really can't tell which one is better because it really depends on how we drive the car, if you don't slow down in going thru deep potholes masisira talaga ang suspension mo. But if ywe base the suspension on the type they used

 

HONDA - Macpherson strut/ double wishbone

TOYOTA - Macpherson strut / Torsion Beam

 

 

id pick the double wishbone combo anytime! :D it's less noisy and is less "hard" compared to the macphersons. it is also being used by jaguars, benzes and even FORMULA 1 cars. Macphersons are gaining popularity in modern cars now because it's cheaper as compared to the wishbones.

 

too bad Honda used used macpherson's for their front suspension in the current civic, but the EK or 96 to 2000 civic used to have double wishbones all the way.

i agree with you & just to add....

service may also depend on whose managing....

*honda shaw are TOPS in after sales service.

*toyota otis also gives good after sales service.

 

though we differ opinion on physical appearance, i would say that honda has the slight edge coz yung stock rims ng alts parang masyadong maliit for the cars overall appearance. thus making it look like lancer(na parang nakatingala). but altis is more classy & luxurious specially if you dressed it up with 17" mags.

 

aftermarket parts lamang ang toyota pero sa mga aesthetics nmn eh lamang ang honda dahil parang fad din eh? medyo in ngaun so daming available na "pamporma" parts.

 

both are very good and sad to say eh medyo "wa say" ang manok kong mitsubishi lancer. :cry:

Ahm, I know this is already OT.. I just wanna correct... Chrystler po.. sa Mitsubishi sila nag-invest... RENAULT ang nag-invest sa Nissan. ;)

 

And I just stated that I liked Nissan kse baka isipin nyong maka-Toyota ako kaya ko nasabi lahat ng negative against Honda ok? I never claimed that it was better. B)

 

Btw, bad financial standing doesn't equate to less quality cars.. nasa Marketing and Packaging pa rin yan ng product. Fact is, masama na lang kse ang rep*tasyon ng Nissan dito sa Pinas dahil sa "kalampagin" daw tska mahal ang piyesa.. pero dun sa mga nakakaalam talaga sa kotse, nauna pa sila magkaron ng VTEC engine (iba nga lang ang term nila) atska yun back zonar (tama ba term at spelling ko?) at nagsigayahan na lang yun iba. Ayan.. i-research nyo na lang muna ha bago mag-react. :rolleyes:

 

Ah ewan.. Vios vs. Altis ang topic dito eh... atska wala naman talaga akong alam dyan, basta japorms lang ang auto ko atska malamig ang aircon.. masaya na ko nun! :cool:

Mitsu's MIVEC, Nissan's VTC/VVL, toyota's VVTi, Porsche's Variocam and others only followed after Honda.

huh? look what's happening to mitsu right now, along with their financial crisis comes lots of recalls in their vehicles particularly in japan and other parts of asia.

 

no money = less R & D = poor quality
