    sakit lang ng ulo yang old car. don't buy anything older than mid 2000's. big factor din yung safety. just watch that 90's corolla vs modern corolla crash test

    Madalang na kasi ang manual ata ngayon. A little trivia lang, ngayon ko lang na realize na ung budget nya ngayon was my budget 30 years ago for a used vehicle and all it can buy back then was a war torn vehicle [emoji28]

    Hindi ba mas malaki halaga ng P30k in the early 90s? Around that time ata na P300k range ang regular Japanese cars?

    Pero sa bagay kung P1m ang regular Japanese sedan now, anong mabibili mo for P100k, war torn vehicle din nga hehe

    Get a proper car with AT. Hinde na kailangan matuto ng MT. I can’t even remember the last time I’ve driven a MT car.

    Hinde na talaga applicable yun need ng practice car tapos kailagang manual dahil mabilis na lang AT.

    yep

    di naman importanteng life skill ang marunong mag drive ng MT

    there are other more important life skills that kids need to learn

    Ako doc, I don't know how to drive MT.
    If given an MT car, I will definitely try to learn it.
    But for now, I don't have an urge to learn how to drive an MT car.

    again... my daughter learned MT para lang makatipid ako sa A1.

    pero honestly, kanina pa ako nagiisip ng reason why she should learn to drive MT.

    is there a hybrid/EV na manual right now? kahit outside PH?

    Sold in our local market I can only think of the Honda CR-Z.

    If we include imports Suzuki Ignis, Hyundai Tucson, KIA Stonic all have mild hybrid systems combined with 6MT.

    Sakto malapit na dumating new Civic Type-R! Di na mukhang boy racer.
    Friend got told they were trying for 3.5M, but with the higher MSRP I think it'll be at 4M or thereabouts.

    i have mt and at.
    every morning,
    i wrestle, deciding what i'm driving today, MT or AT.
    each has its pros and cons.

    is this budget for the "war car?" or basically the budget for your teen's car?

    pataasan ng wiwi? inuman talk? kung ayaw mo ishare car mo with other members of the family?

    if buying a brand new car... I really can't think of a reason why I should buy a MT car.

    When Toyota PH discontinued the MT Corolla, sinuko ko na dreams ko to one day drive/own an MT car again.

    If the time comes, my kid needs to learn to drive, I would ask her to drive an existing car that we have. No need to buy an MT car.

    If I have to buy an MT car, it has to be fun for me - maybe a WRX or Type R.
