    I'm planning to buy a car and my budget is 370k. I prefer of buying Honda Jazz or Hinda SiR or Ford Lynx rs or Toyota Vios. What do you think sir? Are there more suggestions? I consider Manual Transmission, Fuel Efficient and great Performance. Thank You!

    The SiR has good performance but resale value is rather high for its age, and it doesn't have any safety features.

    The Lynx RS is a well spec'd car with excellent performance. But the 2.0L engine wouldn't qualify as fuel efficient.

    The Vios is fine. Being a Toyota means you get solid resale value and economical running costs. Its light on its feet with the 1.5M/T, but cabin and cargo space are both very much lacking. Plastics quality is poor too.

    IMHO the best compromise would be the 1st gen Jazz VTEC M/T. These are quite rare especially in the 2nd hand market. This one offers excellent performance with good fuel efficiency. And then you get surprisingly huge interior space too.

    Honda Jazz MT - 06 | Cars for sale Mandaluyong | AyosDito.ph

    If it is your thing, the Hyundai Accent CRDi fits your budget as well. It passes all your preferences with flying colors. Fuel consumption rivals the 1.3L variants of its competitors and does so while sipping cheaper diesel fuel. Downside is the looks (subjective), the rather limited space out back and the lack of safety features.

    Sa Escape 2.0, basta manual kunin mo. Otherwise malakas as gas. Matibay naman siya, although not very fast.
