    personally, i like the corona. pero, if you are the person who wants his car to really look good, the civic hb is a good choice. mas madaming accessories. the corona is more of an executive car.

    what's your priorities? space? comfort? At that price i'd lean on a Corona... the Benz would depend if you can find one that was maintained properly.

    for that price, dapat exec style sedans na, mas comfortable at spacious at hindi mukhang ricerboy. but talo ka lang sa gas...

    Honda Hatch. almost endless possibilities with this car!

    Have you consider, the corolla series (ae101, ae 111) and the Civic ESi and Lancer (95-97)?

    the corona is the more comfortable and spacious car.and it's less ubiquitous my '93 gives me 7-8 kilometers to a liter, medyo malakas, pero it's worth the comfort and stability of the car

    yup, i think i know how you feel. it would all depend on what's more important sa'yo bro...

    if you want comfort, go for the corona. sarap and madali i-drive to. plus if hook up with the right club, they can help customize the car in a lot of different ways din. personally i love the euro version of this car. yun dapat balak ko dati. mdyo malakas nga lng sa gas kaya i had to give up mine. mas importante kse beer money s'kin e. hehehe....

    if you want endless possibilities, sa civic hb o kya esi. the big body corolla and lancer are also good choices. dami tlga pwedeng gawin sa mga to. plus side is marami kng mahahanap n ganitong models still in very good condition. they are very easy to maintain and tipid pa sa gas. i now drive my 3rd esi, just trying out a different set up nmn

    pro kng maximum pogi points habol mo, go for the MB. if you do it right, you'll earn a lot respect and a LOT of "attention"( hopefully from the cuter ones of the opposite ***) hehehe.... if you can find one in very good condition. yung nga lng older cars need a lot of attention and care. but if you think you're up to the task, it will be worth it...

    gudluck bro, whatever you decide, just remember that ur ride will be a reflection of who you are...
