HELP! VIOS 1.5G M/T, VIOS 1.3G A/T, MAZDA2 1.5 M/T OR MAZDA2 1.3 M/T (all sedan)

Hi Guys,

Need some advice that I should and I might need to consider when buying a car.

This would be my first car and first time to drive.

I need lang help which of the four models is better considering the following:

1. for city driving only, I seldom travel outside MM if ever I'll only travel outside MM for a short trip so I'd rather take a bus.
2. features and specs
3. maintenance
4. fuel efficiency


Kung may suggestion kayo na ibang car model na same ng price range ok lang.
First option ko crosswind and avanza but hindi pasok sa budget.

I love Mazda2 angas look compare to Vios but I love the interior of Vios than mazda2? Since first car ko medyo particular ako sa itsura.... both are ok naman exterior wise pero interior medyo mas ok sa akin ata ang vios not sure pa since di ko pa nakikita yung ibang model. pero i love the position of the gear knob ng mazda pero hindi flat ang floor sa likod pagdating sa mazda.

Pwede icompare muna mazda2 vs vios then a/t or m/t then 1.3 or 1.5

Please help planning to buy in the next 2-3months

pasok ang budget sa avanza ah. afford mo ang vios 1.5G M/T, afford din ang avanza 1.3E. pag eto sana, avanza ako

but with these 2. i pick vios 1.3G M/T sana para mas fuel effecient pa. for city talaga. mas mahal ng konti ang mazda 2. anyway, gusto mo rin naman looks ng vios. panalo ang vios sa maintenance and fuel effeciency. add the cheaper parts in the future and resale value.

HIndi ko type ang itsura ng Mazda 2 sedan, much in the same way di ko nagugustuhan ang Fiesta sedan. Pero kung trip mo... I'd suggest you get the Mazda 2. Mas upscale ang dating as compared to the Vios. Its sportier than the Vios, if that's what you're after. I'd get the 1.5M/T, but if you're not a fast driver and your only priority is fuel efficiency then I suppose the 1.3M/T will do.

Yes medyo kaya pa ang avanza at crosswind... SUV tlaga target ko po pero I have to consider my Mom hindi niya kaya sumampa ng mataas. (very important since siya ang isa sa magiging pasahero ko madalas )

hindi naman ganun kataas ang avanza compared sa crosswind. actually IMO, mas ok pumasok oldies sa mga MPV kaysa sa mga sub compact sedan, kasi ang problem sa mababa, untog ulo

Ayaw mo 2nd hand diesel van, SUV or MPV? There are ones that are easier to get into like the Santa Fe, Carens, etc. Just as bro dct said, these are easier to get into due to the fact that they do not have to stoop their head, and more importantly, also their back.

A Mazda2 1.3MT is very economical and incredibly fun.

Oo nga pero parang yung nakita ko interior medyo nadismaya ako... Di ko alam pero parang mukhang laruan lang yung steering wheel, saka dashboard.... plus yung floor sa likod hindi even.
