2001 Corolla Gli or 2000 Civic LXi?

[the lark]

I have finally narrowed down my choices to 2 cars. Between a corolla gli and a civic lxi.Below are the specs:

2001 Corolla Gli
- matic
-1st owned
-all stock
-all original
-83 T mileage
-all power
-color blue
-price 300K

2000 Civic Lxi
-matic
-all original
-1st owned
-90 T mileage
-all power
-alarm
-casa maintained
-leather seats
-all stock
-price 300K

If you're the one choosing between the two, which car would you buy? Ok pa naman ang makina pareho, makinis din.

diba 2001 rolla gli is "altis" look na, meaning, yung malaki na?

well, kung ako papipiliin, i would go for the civic, kung yung rolla is yung small body.
my reason?

a. resale;
b. yung pagiging "casa maintain". just make sure yung casa records are available.
c. bigger space ng civic.

For me, hands down corolla. Why? Engine of corolla is 1.6, yr. model 2001 so mas mataas ang resale value then lastly, low maintenance cost.

I agree with happy_gilmore. Mukang naliliitan din ako dun sa corolla(assuming na hindi altis yan). So honda wins in terms of space. Sa consumption di nagkakalayo yang dalawa. Sa condition pa din yan..Make sure you have it checked sa magaling na technician.

i think yun pa yung small body na corolla. kasi hindi ba yung altis big body e J, E at G yung designations nya? personally, kung hindi naman space ang habol ko, sa corolla na.

I'd go for the Corolla since its 1600 and newer. From experience with a similar model, it also feels easy and fun to drive. Our 2001 Corolla GLI-Altis Matic (all stock), seemed to even out perform our 2005 Civic VTIS Matic (all stock as well) in overtaking, and high speed handling.

Good luck in your final pick.

AE111 pa nga yung corolla na yan. don nako sa civic as long as he can produce the service records from the casa.

[Tikoyman]

I will go for corolla........mas maganda ang matic nung AE111 at 1.6Gli pa yan.
Pero mas type ko yung Corolla na 92-97 model, ganda ng porma!

Civic 1.5 LXI na pangit ang mags!

Civic 1.5 LXI na pangit ang mags!

ouch. sapul ako. anyways, kung mags lang ang pag-uusapan, e madali lang palitan yan. dami namang after market dyan e. moreover, kung rims lang ang pag-uusapan, kuha ka ng 15" na Ferio. tapos gawin mong european look...

no doubt, Civic pa rin ako...

Hindi ba casa maintained ang Corolla?

Generally, Civic has a higher resale value than the corolla probably dahil walang taxi.
I used to own a 1996 Civic VTi so my (loyalty) vote goes to Honda
