**ayosbathere** · August 9th, 2004 10:08 PM

I don't know if this is the right forum to post this msg.

I'm plan to buy a new car preferably sedan(compac) price not more P790K. I'm looking for good exterior & interior, nice suspension, good safety feature, fuel effecient with power and good re-sale value.

here is my choice so far but i need to filter out the best car for my money.

Mazda 3 1.6V
Altis 1.6 G/E
Civic 1.6 VTis
Ford RS
Optra 1.8
. . .
. . .
. . .

Your suggestion/input ...

Thanks

i will definitely go for the Mazda 3 because it is the newest car to be introduced among the choices. Sabi nga ng lalaking sales rep sa mazda greenhills " ito ang aga mulach car, kahit saan angulo mong tingnan ang ganda"
Tsaka ko nalaman bading pala

welcome to tsikot sir

opinions ko lang abt the cars u mentioned:

mazda 3 - wala pa yatang available nito sa market

altis 1.6 e/g - we own one; does basically anything you want it to; sometimes thirsty for fuel; good resale value; toyota reliability and track record

civic vti-s - honda prestige and quality; solid "feel" of all controls , doesn't look and feel cheap in any way; less-featured compared to rivals;

ford lynx rs- pocket rocket; sportiest looking sedan in phil market; ford 24 hour road assistance program; thirsty 2.0 engine; manual transmission only;

chevy optra - afaik, 1.6 pa lang ang offer ng chevrolet phils. full featured but doesn't rob your wallet, chevy warranty (free labor and parts for 2 years) based on a daewoo nubira
