Satria GTI or Normal Satria

[deveshwhat]

Hello everyone! I'm totally new here to these forums and discussions so I would like some valuable opinion from all the sifus' and otais'. I'm looking into buying my first car which is the Satria GTI and I'm a little bit torn between the GTI and the normal 1.6L model. I've read previous discussions all over the forums and I can't seem to find a strong answer. I would like to know if the chassis of the GTI is actually better than the 1.6L or if they're about the same. If the GTI has a stronger chassis, I would like to know what actually about the chassis is better than the 1.6L? I am very very particular about chassis rigidity and good handling. Power isn't really of my concern since my plan is to eventually turn it into a 4G93 Mivec or a GSR and my main goal with the car is to just touge during the weekends but mostly my focus is on touge and maybe a few track days.

I would really appreciate all the responses!

easier said is 1.6 satria is older than satria GTi for sure.. so newer is better for chassis.. and once you buy, directly send to the body shop to check its welding and all the spot weld..
