    i'd get the civic na, more space and it's a full sized car. pero the jazz is a really fun car, it's the only car left in the honda line up that's fun to drive.

    kung everyday use, i'd go for jazz. mas tipid. pero kung madalas ka out-of-town tapos meron ka pa pasahero,civic. parehas naman sila rapsa i-drive. depende nalang yun sa kung saan mo gagamitin.

    thanks guys for the speedy reply! I'm actually thinking of the same thing... that is why it's hard to decide. both of them are really good cars. the civic is a nice full sized sedan while the jazz is fun to drive also has a huge space when you fold the rear seats. thanks again!

    BTW, if i choose the jazz what would you recommend, the 1.3MT or the 1.5AT? thanks!

    no question... if the 1.5 a/t is with in your budget and im guessing that it is kasi you can afford the civic go for more power. hehe

    and yung a/t ng honda ngayon is much better than the CVT kasi dami issue ng CVT. yung now, i havent heard anything bad about the tranny of honda.

    how can we justify naman yung 100k difference between the 1.3 and 1.5?
    what are the 1.5at selling point?

    thanks again!

    same tayo ng problem pinagdaanan ko din yan. gusto gusto ko talaga civic because of the power that will give to me when im in hurry lol. but the question san kaba madalas kung parati ka lang sa city driving mag jazz ko mas matipid siya pinaka mataas ko consumption is 21.1 km/l. siyaka ang dami niya parts sa labas ganun din aman ang civic. naka 1.3 mt ako na jazz eto lang masasabi ko hindi siya underpowerd. kung hindi mo naman iniisip yung gas mo magcivic ka good buy yang dalawa na yan for me.

    para sakin A/T and 1.5 engine is enough selling point. hehe

    usually kasi difference ng m/t sa a/t around 50k then add the more powerful engine... panalo na for me. im not that all familiar with all the features pero alam ko better mags na rin 1.5 against 1.3

    my old EK lxi can still do about 9.5 km/l here in baguio (vtecs can have slightly similar mileage), but my friend's new civic still struggles to reach 7km/l... factor din kasi ang terrain... lalo sa bulubunduking baguio....

    Went through the same dilemma. Was all set to get the Jazz 1.5 A/T. Went for a test drive and saw the Civic 1.8. Was also available for test drive so test drove both back-to-back. Ended spending more for the Civic but totally no regrets. More space, very adequate engine, 8.5 km/li city, 17 highway. And that was 3 years ago. <100k diff in price.

    Now I understand its less than 50k diff for top of the line Jazz and base Civic and appreciate your dilemma even more.

    Good luck! Faced w/ the same situation now, i'll probably get the Jazz since the new Civic is around the corner.

    I like the Jazz better. Better seats, more flexible cargo space, better ride, better economy.

    The Civic is wider, but unless you're sitting 3 people in the back, this isn't a problem in the Jazz. What you might miss from the Civic is the extra power... but the Jazz isn't exactly underpowered.

    Or... save some money and go for the 1.3 MT Jazz. Lacks a few of the 1.5s options... but you're not really going to miss them that much... just upgrade your rims when your stock tires wear out... and with the MT, the 1.3 is really economical. The 1.3 AT is kinda disappointing.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Power is relative to the weight being carried (hence power-to-weight ratio), but I believe the 1.8 Civic or the 1.5 Jazz would be enough for you nevertheless. Just don't haul those 300lb people and you'll fine~

    Quite hard, I'd say I'll hold off purchase for now unless I really need it. 2nd-gen Jazz might be a better purchase age-wise, but I'd really wait another year or two and see what Honda has in store for us. There's the 2012 Civic to boot after waiting anyway.

    If you'll need to purchase one now, I'll go for the 1.5 Jazz. Any extra change is still change (pambili ng bagong iPhone 4 este.. exterior mods pala ). I rate "fun to drive" highly. Both are practical, both are easy to find parts with. Only problem is the face.. I don't really find the Jazz all that attractive and the Civic is dime a dozen. Even Civics with exterior mods to make them "stand out" is fast becoming dime a dozen too (unless you do something really drastic.. like FoilaCar).

    If space isn't really all that important, you might wanna check out the new Ford Fiesta.

2010 jazz or civic?!?
