Sir thank you for letting me to comment on your thread.Off topic comment is because these are not related to your beautiful car or accessories and that there is general 11 gen thread for these kind of comment.
Yes you are right that difference would be more for a non filer but it would be hardly 150k over Gli A/T for filer (Registration and all taxes included) here in islamabad.
As far as resale is concerned, i have sold around 4 cars till now, 1986 corolla,2000 Corolla GL, 2007 xli, 2012 Gli manual. All cars sold with profit some how due to devaluing of PKR Rupees.
For Altis 1.6, I hope it will not give me a heart breaking loss when i will sell it after 3 to 6 years. Reason is being , we have hilly areas and people know that a powerful car will serve them well.I was standing on Toyota Show room for some reason, there a person wanted to have GLi A/T but he randomly asked me that will Gli A/T be good for mountain, i said it will be fine but to get more ease in mountain areas why dont you try 1.6 as the invoice diff between them is 125k plus you will get alloys nav unit and much more . He straight away book 1.6.
Factory fitted alloys, nav unit and 300cc more bigger engine will convince people to get 1.6 over 1.3 Gli A/T after 3 to 5 years when resale will be concerned. At least it will get some extra amount during resale over 1.3 A/T if a car is well kept.
Plus one more important thing
When people buy Gli they compare its price with Stock Factory price . if you have add ons , people will not consider it during buying still you will be getting loss on these add ons too. I might fetch some extra bucks over Gli if people compare buying price with factory price. If you are selling your car after three to five years on stock accessories, people might go to other Gli which has nav unit alloys and some other add ons on same budget
.
The same would not go for Grande CVTi because buying power of common person is not that much that is why these cars get a loss on their resale. The difference b/w Gli A/T and Grande CVTi is much much more. Common people give a dam to paddle shifter, CVTi, speedo meter, but they do consider LCD for movies or songs , alloy bigger tyres like shaskay
