    I'm not sure about 1.6 series but the 1.8V's horn is LOUD. It's a common high + low tone disc set. Parang peem peem. That's why I've not heard anyone yet upgrade theirs.

    The other day, I was in a hurry to go to Supreme Court to submit papers and there's this jeep that kept blocking the corner despite the green light. I sounded my horn but the passengers covered their ears - which immediately made me feel bad about my action. Since I have a backing camera, I just reversed - much to the terror of the SUV behind me so he sounded his horn also. LOL. I just swerved so I can turn right.

    We need better licensing qualifications. And make these tests mandatory EVERY renewal to keep up with the updated rules and laws on road use.

    Haha, you're so right. No one (ok, very few) are buying. I imagine, these buyers must be a bit like me, in the sea of Toyotas, we like to be different. We are confident that we've made a good choice.

    Me, I just chose it for practicality in terms of what I need. In our hell of a weather, I like the freezing AC even at noon time with Ambient temp at over 40C and I only need 26C on Auto to chill me because anything lower is just unbearably cold.

    The power isn't anything spectacular but believe you me, I win 99% of the time at stoplight races without pressing the sport mode on (ok, that's a bit juvenile). hehe.

    I actually envy the Vios and Altis for being taxi choices because it means we have a sea of these cars' parts. Me, I can't find a spare air filter yet in Banawe, only at nissan store. I have to buy parts in the US (thank goodness for it being a global model).

    I would've chosen the Civic FB if it were anything as groundbreaking as FD but it isn't. Lancer is ok, I actually like driving the MX on the dirt at redline (feeling rally racer). After that, some expensive engine trouble developed and my friend eventually traded it in to get an MS. She never talked to me again. LOL.

    ^Yeah a bit commanding yung peem peem horn sound. Tapos may parang echoe pa sya. Ano pala stock horn ng 1.6 and 1.8?

    Hi Sylphy owners

    Does the 1.6 upper have the 7inch or touch screen headunits?
    what is your fc in city traffic?
    And does it feels underpowered for a 1.6 with 114 hp?
    TIA
