Para sa Kin:
Interior - Ako kasi Driver so dapat pag sakay ko sa car dapat, comfortable, maaliwalas and relaxing he he.
Safety - Need I say more = )
Brand - Car is also an investment so mas OK kung di malugi masyado when it's time to dispose of it or when repairs are needed.
Engine - I'm not primarily after the performance, I lean towards better fuel economy and quietness, secondary na lang yung torque and power.
Exterior - When I drive, I dont see the exterior so It's not my priority to buy cars for others to see, but for me to enjoy - thus my priorities he he.

Brand/Safety-siyempre resale/parts and toughness are numero uno.
Interior-meaning space...siyempre mas maluwag mas comfortable lalo na sa isang family man.
Engine-the most powerful yet economical pa rin ang hanap ko.
Exterior-dapat fogi ang tsikot ko parang ako.
Others- the more the merrier

Interior Space, Ergonomics - Since I am over 6 ft in height the car had to be spacious.
