    We already have AUV in our province, I am using adventure so I think I will just choose sedan or crossover which will satisfy #2-7.
    What can you guys recommend? :-)

    These are things that should be considered:
    1. Be able to ride 5 or 6 persons (including the driver) - is Sedan possible?
    2. I will primarily use it as my ride from home to office (metro manila) - not yet married
    3. Less than P900k
    4. Prefer diesel (but you may also suggest cars using gasoline and please tell me why you prefer gas compared to diesel, if ever)
    5. Fuel consumption
    6. Also prefer MT but I don't know if the traffic in Metro Manila (did not experience yet to drive in Metro Manila, I usually drive in our province Bicol) will let me regret for choosing it instead of AT.. :-D
    7. Parts should be available in the market (not only on CASA)
    8. Freebies or discount? :-D

    I already have 2 cars in mind but did not schedule yet a test drive as I am considering also the opinions of the members here.

    Thank you so much.

    The Innova is really nice but it's too expensive now.
    I've fit 3 adults (including geriatrics) in the back of my Altis for a 6 hour trip to Baler. More recently, 3 adults in the back for a Baguio trip.

    Most compacts are as wide, if not wider than most crossovers in the market.

    Let's remove the #1 criteria, what sedan can you recommend in terms of #2-7 or #2-8?
    Thank you. :-)

    given your price ceiling, accent lang ang may diesel. but you will have to ask the actual owners regarding performance, tibay and parts support.
    kung puede gasoline, biglang dumami ang choices nyo.
    bukang-bibig na ang vios and altis. and the ciaz is a new model in the market. its showroom features appear good, but only time will tell what time will tell. the almera is also there, but some are so turned off by its visage that they drop it from their list firsthand. how good it really is...?
    then there is the lancer (thought to be going bye-bye, but they are on sale again in the showrooms).
    then there are the koreans. gasoline accent, kia rio.
    and let us not forget the minicars. wigo, mirage, celerio... you can't argue over their price.
    everything seems to be about even. personal choice na lang siguro.
    happy choosing.

    *jut703, what can you say about altis? By the way what type of altis are you using? Do you highly recommend it or have some other cars in mind?
