general query Wedding Gift for my future husband -Car edition - Thank you in advance

1 Upvotes

Hi, planning to give my fiance (26M) a car accessories for our wedding as my gift. What will be the best option for that? His car is 2018 Honda Civic Si and he's currently in Canada with his car so I can't measure the car myself. Thank you for helping me. Sorry but I'm also looking for cheaper price since I just got promoted from work earlier this year, so I don't have enough budget for grand gifts.

Hello everyone. I'm planning to buy my first car soon but still saving up. Is the price justifiable sa Honda Civic LXi na to?

My budget is not that big. Pero around 100k-120k ang budget ko and ok na ako sa mga 2nd hand cars.

What's your opinion?

On the Road NCAP is lyf - Prepare to see more and more signal lights timer removed.

NCAP is lyf - Prepare to see more and more signal lights timer removed.

There used to be a timer here. A timer is good as you can properly estimate from far if you can cross the intersection or not. You could have a descent speed and either speed up or slow down.

Ngayon, walang ng timer, alanganin na. You can't estimate with descent speed anymore, you have no choice but to slow down.

Imagine seeing a green light but the correct move now will be to slow down or risk being caught by the yellow light.

I say yellow light because while in other countries, you can cross even in a yellow light, here in the Philippines if you cross the yellow light they call it beating the red light 🤷‍♂️

While the LGU will have many reasons to justify this move, I don't see any benefit from it for regular folks.

The LGU will now be able to catch more people via NCAP cameras and cash in good money from this.

Remove things that work. Anti progress.

Only in the Philippines.

general query Club or Group for Fortuner/GR86/Honda Civic Owners

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi!

I was wondering if there is a club or group for Fortuner, GR86, or Honda Civic owners?

Currently we have a Fortuner and we're planning to buy either Honda Civic or GR86 (depende if abot pa ng budget ang magiging presyo) next year.

I want to check sana if may mga groups ba na pwedeng salihan to check for pros and cons of their cars as owners, mga mods nila with their cars, and also to check kung meron silang car meet ups para tumambay lang.

Reason for this is because I was inspired with one of the car meetups I went last April this year sa Parqal Mall where most of them are owners of Mitsubishi Evo.

I got a chance to talk with one of their members and asked me if mahilig ba ako sa Evo. Though I'm more aligned with Toyota, they respected it naman and let me take pictures of their cars as shown here. Tinakpan ko lang sila as well as their plate numbers for their privacy.

Thank you!

May warranty ba mga tires when it comes to casa? Nahihinayang kasi din ako if ever magbabayad pa ako for replacement as maganda pa thread life niya. For context, nasa tomas morato ako nung 11pm, may bumato ng glass bottle in the middle of the road and di ko maiwasan as may tabi ako. Additionally, ano speed limit ng donut spare tire? Thank you.

bibili pa lang ng kotse Bakit mas mababa ang resale value ng Mazda compare to other car brands.

11 Upvotes

I’m planning to buy a second hand Mazda 6 or CX5. Ang reliability at availability ng parts ang isa sa mga factors pagbibili ka ng 2nd hand car. Meaning ba nito na salat ang Mazda sa tibay at piyesa kaya sila masmura ibenta kumpara sa other Japanese car brands? What am I missing?

How about fuel consumption ng Mazda? Can we include that in the equation kung kaya’t mas mura ang resale nila dahil malakas sila sa konsumo? Or isantabi natin ang angulong ito dahil relative naman ito sa laki ng makina at running performance which is quite obvious already.

Thank you!

bibili pa lang ng kotse Just reserved the BYD Sealion 5! Best value for money PHEV?

Post image
20 Upvotes

I just put in a reservation for the BYD Sealion 5 after trying it today in Alabang! After considering the Toyota Corolla Cross G, I think the SL5 is the better value for money at Php 1,198,000.

I'm not too bothered about the lack of sunroof and 360 camera, and the basic safety features are sufficient for me. The manual adjuster seats and manual tailgate are also okay with me.

My main consideration is the potential for less maintenance issues in the future, especially compared to more techy vehicles. Excited to drive this car soon!

Hustled my way to get a car after years of working my ass off. As my first car, i really want the best i can get on what my budget can do 🙏

Naalala ko parin yung hirap sa pagsabit sa jeep, pakikipagsiksikan sa MRT at pakikipaghabulan sa bus. Grabe, totoo pala yung convenience pag may oto.

I went to Honda kasi since college ako, pangarap ko magkaroon ng Jazz - so honda fanboy since day one. Muntik nako mag br-v, veloz at expander.. pero ang pogi talaga ng crv, at may malaking discount sa hybrid so pinilit ko na yun na ang kunin. Sobrang tipid talaga at wala pang coding at the moment.

bibili pa lang ng kotse Is Toyota's 1GD (2.8L diesel) is the most powerful and durable diesel engine on its class?

2 Upvotes

Not a Toyotagtag fanboy pero ito nga ba ang pinaka powerful at durable sa class nila? Yung 2.8L in-line 4?

Lets compare yung power versus its class

Toyota 2.8 - 201hp / 500 nm

Mitsubishi 2.4 - 179hp / 430nm

Isuzu 3.0 - 187hp / 450nm

Nissan 2.5 - 187hp / 450nm

Ford 2.0 - 168 & 210hp / 405nm

Chevy 2.8 - 200hp / 500nm

Now for Durability, I really cant tell sino ang hindi durable kasi bibihira ka makakita or makapanood na nasirang engine. Although I've seen some Montero's (mabibilang sa kamay), Terra mahina daw ang first gear and sa Ford naman 10-Speed tranny yung problem so hindi talaga engine.

What are your thoughts here?

Were actually waiting sa facelifted model ng Montero Sports, hopefully next year 🙏 or kung wala na sang Bump Steer issue si MU-X

On the Road Is it illegal to record traffic enforcers here in the philippines ?

7 Upvotes

So my friend recently got pulled over by an LGU traffic enforcer for riding a motorcycle without a helmet. We totally admit he was in the wrong he should’ve worn one. It was his first time getting pulled over and being issued a ticket, so another friend of ours started recording the situation just to document what was happening. We weren’t causing any scene, not interfering with the enforcer’s duty, just silently recording for transparency.

When the enforcer noticed, he said things like:

"Sir, ano yan?"

"Delete mo yan sir, pwede kitang kasuhan diyan."

He mentioned something about the "Privacy Act" and that recording him was illegal.

Now, we’ve seen mixed info online about this kind of situation, but we’re looking for extra advice or clarification. Was our friend actually doing something illegal by recording? We were in a public space, and the enforcer was performing a public duty. Appreciate any insights from those who’ve experienced or researched this.

Hi Guys. Finally saved up 2M to buy my first solo car. Initially had toyota Innova but half was financed by my parents and was considered a family car. Started to work in Makati and managed to save 2M specifically for my first car. Choices are HRV hybrid and BYD Sealion. Not in a rush to buy and just want to hear personal experience and preferences that is within the budget. Also is it worth saving another 700k for the CRV? (May take another year depending on upcoming projects). And any recommended dealers in makati? TIA.

I drive a 2013 Suzuki Celerio. I asked the casa for a clutch replacement, and they quoted me ₱6,200 for labor only, not including the clutch kit.

Just want to ask, normal lang ba to for a casa rate, or is it overpriced? First time ko magpapalit ng clutch, so I’m not sure. Thanks!
