Duh?!? Its an obvious choice from your own statement of wanting a powerful engine.

Its the yaris 1.5L m/t.

hindi ko kasi type yung paddle shift.manual trans talaga type ko.yung yaris naman eh nakakasawa ng tingnan di tulad ng jazz bago pa.kaya ba ng jazz 1.3 na tapatan ang yaris? in terms of speed.

Me and my dad just test drove the 1.3 jazz last saturday. its good as an econo car but power is not that good. I heard how hard the engine revs to reach the speed you want.

If i were you, I'd get the 1.5jazz.

In the lower gears, it is possible to get better performance from the Jazz 1.3L if you are willing to push the engine to the redline and use the gear shift well. But like it's previous model, beyond 100kph, performance will be rather dull but highway driving will not be a problem.

tingnan mo in 6 months, parang kabute rin maglalabasan mga jazz, kung gusto mo di nakakasawa, and matipid sa gas, cherry qq or alto

. di mo naman need speed pag city driving ka.

Get the yaris, mura lang manual nya, i think 660k all in na with free insurance. the remaining savings you'll have (over 80k since jazz is almost at 740 with insurance, etc) pambili mo nalang ng pang set up.

With the 80 k savings you can get body kits, new set of mags, and an cold air intake to further strenghten your car

In terms of power, i personally driven both 1.5 matic versions, the yaris is faster, especially off the line, compared to the jazz, the jazz tends to downshift in awkward times, and it takes longer to accelerate.

The 1.5 jazz also consumes more fuel.

In terms of interior, functionality, jazz pa din
