Can anybody choose for me?? Or giv me the good point to choose better car... Thanks lot!!!

Vios is better for fuel economy n power & less problem even after 5 yr now ...

You guys better stop worshipping the Dugong, aka The VIOS.

Between a SENTRA and a VIOS, get a SENTRA, get the 1.8L version and enjoy a better ride, better power than VIOS, and of course, bigger car than VIOS.

The 1.8L version, yes, somewhat proven have better FC than the 1.6L.
Just like their Cefiro 3.0L has better FC than the 2.0L.

go for Sentra good car ^^

Vios.

how much is 1.8 sentra ? people budget is 50k nia ...

seriously when i m in my colleague sentra , it feels like myvi auto.

u mean vios or sentra? AFAIK, vios and myvi shares very similar built quality which is sux

sentra no matter wat also bigger class than vios, more spacious, more power, more luxury, more classy.. only FC lose little to vios but wat u paid is what u get for sentra
vios is juz another overrated car sama je ngan myvi coz of the T badge.

Ya...My budget is around 50k-55k only...
I think can get 1.6 sentra n vios for 5 years car only...
Ya..In my opinion sentra is realy look smart n cool than vios...
I just scare the maintenance lose than vios...
scare buy second hand sentra wil got a lot of problem...such as high fuel...
because non of my fren own nissan sentra... So dono izit comfortable when sit inside...
I sit my collegues vios today...he is new vios G spec... But the sit at behind are quite small lo...
As I knw vios less prob...low fuel only lo...realy scare it is same as MYVI only wo...

The Vios falls under the subcompact car and 1.5L category.....how to compare to a midsize/compact 1.8L Sentra?

I compare 1.6 sentra wit 1.5 vios...

Dude. Before you "follow the blind mouse which leads the blind mouse" and generalize about Sentra.......

If you think VIOS maintenance is lower than Nissan, You are still wrong. Both of them have low maintenance.
When I read this, I was thinking "WTF? Someone thinks that owning a Nissan is like maintaining a BMW?"

In fact the Nissan Sentra has already gained the reputation of proven reliability from the legendary Nissan Sunny to the Sentra B13 (genting taxi version), to even commercial Nissan Vanettes, which actually still uses legendary DATSUN 120Y engines.

Did u also know, that Nissan Sunny was once before, an official, national taxi, before the selfish G/Proton made it vanish and replaced it with Saga/Iswara and now Saga BLM? Did you know also, that Genting taxi are still running up and down in Genting, and they are ALOT older than the new Sentra N16. So what does that tell you about Nissan's reliability?

Also, Google up/search up before you generalize,
If u are interested in the 1.8 version search for year 2003. Slightly less than RM 50K. Year 2004, RM 55K.
Go and search yourself in Motortrader.

I tell you la, the best is to get yourself a VIVA . Lowest fuel consumption, lowest maitenance. Even VIOS can't match VIVA's fuel economy. But that's what you aim for, right? But that's what you don't want (a small car), I'm sure.

nissan>toyota... get sentra...

Of course Vios lah.No need to think also

Sentra super old technology.

Vios is brand new tech.

Some say Sentra 1.8 more powerful and all.

Wait till you actually sit inside Sentra and actually feel it.It is not powerful at all because it has a very frugal engine.BEsides I think TS is talking about the 1.6 version which is even crappier.

And seriously Sentra interior is worse than Vios ..

Not that I am worshipping Vios or what,but it is a fact that Vios is so much better than Sentra.

its very subjective for this topic i think..
but TS who's the one will buy, so just for TS try list down all the advantages n disadvantages for both car n decide by urself... u the one will buy n use it everyday, so u know the best what u need (eg spacious, fuel economy, less maintenance, powerful for overtaking,ect)
for maintenance try ask mechanics which know better, what their normal prob for both car etc...
n everyone got different opinion, that's make the world keep spinning around bro.. peace..

design..i like sentra more..looks bigger n decent.
