    Reduce your carbon & road footprints.
    I'd suggest cheaper, easier to drive/park/maintain non-CVT econoboxes like the previous gen Jazz or Yaris. Both small yet unexpectedly roomy. Solid decent cars I'd welcome anytime. They look better than the current ones, too. IMO.[emoji4]

    ^

    Camry ...

    Toyota (generally) is much cheaper on parts, and more abundant.

    But either way, both models are good cars.

    Most likely a 2006-2007 model Camry. How about using that money sa DP for a new Civic instead?

    i was recently in the market for a used car, same budget as well. bought a 2006 FD civic 2.0 manual in the end.

    i considered a 2004 camry, 2001 accord, and an e46.
    the camry and accord looked nice, well maintained but being at, i had some concerns. both were driver driven,the owners were obviosly not a "car person". who knows what those cars transmissions and engine have been thru.

    the e46 was owned by an enthusiast, but on closer look it seemed to have been neglected and abused. 1 window didnt open. 1 door handle was hard to pull. i noticed 1 tire was different brand, i checked the spare and found one w/ same brand as the other 3, but was ripped at the side wall. looked like this car wasnt babied. spoiled brat yata yung po

    so i found this fd. lady owned.all stock. 80k at the odo, sounded quite. clean interior. no cigarette smell. being lady owned the wipers werent changed since 2006 the struts were **** and chopsuey ng china brands ang gulong .

    got it for 385k.changed oil and filter, air filter. got some eibachs, kyb shocks/struts and re003 on all four. drives like new.

    Question, how's the driving as compared to other midsize/compact/subcompact sedans?
    does it really drives like a boat as other people says?

    Also, what if I add the honda CRV 2007-2010 to the list. Does it make a difference?

    Random lang saktong lunch break sa office nagbrowse ako ng used Hyundai Sonata (fluidic sculpture 2010-2014). Sobrang fan ako ng design niya, yung top spec GLS Premium complete with pano sunroof, push start, etc can be had for around 400-700K depending on the year model.

    What do you guys think? Ok kaya yun?

    Wow, ok na pala ako dun, kesa bumili ng brand new supermini may decent midsize sedan ka na. Sa previous experience namin sa Hyundai parts weren't really a problem, katapat lang namin isa sa known parts dealers ng Korean brands.

    Can't remember if the 2.0 limited had Stability Control though, rare variant yun.

    Santa Fe CRDi na around 2006-2008 pasok narin. IIRC, same platform as Sonata so it drives like a midsize sedan. Added practicality of high ground clearance and a 3rd row that's actually quite livable with decent headroom and legroom. Admittedly, there are still some hard plastic bits but it gets pretty close. Diesel engine makes good power and fuel costs are similar to the typical 1.5 or 1.6AT. Just make sure the unit is in good condition, and all trim parts are working, since some of these can be hard to source.

    Take note that parts for midsized sedans are not as easy to find as compacts ... whether it's a Honda, Toyota or Hyundai ...

    Pa recycle ng thread.

    Ano ang mga possible sa 400K budget?

    Preferred is CUV sana na AT.

    2009 CRV for a comfortable, reliable, and fairly fuel efficient crossover.

    You can also look into a 2008-2009 Forester 2.0X. Drives better and looks better (when you change rims), but is less efficient and maintenance will be more difficult compared to the Honda.
