    The mirage is much smaller than either of the others. Much cheaper, but much smaller.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Mirage is much smaller than the Jazz. The Jazz has an advantage of having the most flexible interior to carry small to massive cargo sizes. The Mirage is the latest offering in the market and so far it is well accepted for it's relatively spacious interior (when compared to the Mazda2 & Fiesta) and satisfactory performance from it's 1.2L engine.

    If your budget it limited, the Mirage is a very good car to own in the P600K range. Beyond that, the Jazz is the better option.

    IMHO, the Ford Fiesta is not an appealing option because of the quirks and relatively poor fuel economy. It's complex automatic transmission takes a bit of time to learn it's quirks to maximize it's performance yet you cannot manually use it's dual clutch feature. The reported early failures of the dual clutch trannys of some Focus' (and expensive repair bill) is also another bit of worrying news for anyone buying a Ford car with a dual clutch transmissions.

    Hmm. Ano ba kalaban ng Mirage dito. Ah! i10, Spark & Celerio.

    Ang contender ng Jazz is Fiesta, Mazda 2, Swift and Yaris.

    So among your choices, sa Jazz ako, then Fiesta, then Mirage.

    I wouldn't even consider the Fiesta because of the cramped interior of this car. The Mazda2 is slightly better but only slightly...

What to buy 2012 jazz fiesta or mirage?
