Hello mga tsikoteers, I have a thread before asking recommendations for a 2nd hand car worth 450k MAX.

now my options are trimmed down to these 3 cars.

1. Honda City 1.5E A/T
2. Mitsubishi Mirage G4 GLS A/T
3. Suzuki Swift 1.4 HB A/T

lahat sila equal ang timbang sakin. I guess lahat sila hindi nagkakalayo sa FC. The main concern for me is the reliability of the parts, I mean what's the usual issue on each brand on the long run.

Thanks.

+1 to the City but if you can find a Fiesta 1.0L Ecoboost at your budget, go for that instead.

Wala na po bang issue sa transmission ang FoFi Ecoboost?

Wala naman. Mine is more than 3 years old and has 50k KM on it already and I had no issues with it. Just drive it like to the strengths of its tranny. If you drive it like an old man (like revving below 2500 rpm), you will be just shuffling between 1st-2nd-3rd gears which could be annoying.

Thanks, FoFi was really part of my choices because of the looks kaya lang nakaka discourage yung nababasa ko about sa issues ng transmission. Thanks for that, now I will also look for a FoFi ecoboost.

BTW are you using it for both city and hw driving? kasi I'm gonna use it more often on city driving so I guess I cant rev up to 2500 rpm while sitting in EDSA traffic, lol.

Are the models 2014 and up are ok?
