whatever car you decide to buy, make sure you have mechanic check it inside and out and try to buy from someone you know.  a 10 year old car might have some rusting issues, prior flood damage, prior accidents.  i sold my 94 esi, but not to an individual, but to a wholesale dealer.  got a little less than what i wanted but would not have someone coming after me if something went wrong with the car.  i had 1 left front accident but no frame damage. drove through many floods in manila and valenzuela. 1 time the water reached to the door handles, but the car never stalled. drove my car to and past redline all the time. hit big potholes all the time. but the car looked perfect outside. just be careful!

thanks gap! puntahan ko na lang 

thanks kenny. i think kung bibili na lang siguro ako sa tao magaling talaga yun mechanic ko to check in and out like what you said. sa shop naman, parang mas ok nga kasi di ba  they check it carefully before they buy? so they can sell it easily. tama po ba sir?

add lang po san kaya magandang shop na pagbilihan? baka may alam po kayo pls lang.... thanks!

[k.o]

best bet parin is to check the classified ads on the newspaper kasi madalas mga to sila na yung personal owner and mas makakamura karin plus f there is nothing wrong with thecar wala naman ikakatakot yung owner na ipacheck nyo sa mechanic

[MAN2DIE4]

ok sir k.o. minsan kasi gusto ko punta sa mga shop tingin tingin sa cars kaya ask ako kung saan maganda... 

[k.o]

[MAN2DIE4]

that my dear friends is quite true enough...

saka verify with the tmg if it is legit or boosted...

pag boosted kotse nabili mo (carnap) patay kang bata ka

di po ba masyado malakas sa gas yun camry 2.2L?

ano po ba yun AE101/111? Sensya po di ko talaga alam.

Yung toyota exsior po kaya na 2.0 versus accord 2.0?  talaga po bang malakas sa gas ito? ano rin po kaya ang choice nyo sa 2?

salamat po.

matipid ang Camry 2.2 if you have a light right foot.

AE101 and AE111 - model codes for the 2 previous generations of Corollas.
