FORD FIESTA SPORT!

Accent. I hate the Fiesta's looks, especially the sedan. Same thing with the Mazda 2. Only the hatch looks good. But right now, specs wise, the Accent still cannot compete with the Fiesta. Wait till the 6 speed A/T and diesel engine comes in... But still the other creature features exclusive to the Accent are very noteworthy.

i'm not being biased because i'll be buying the accent soon.. but i just have a feeling that the engine of the accent will be better than the fiesta's. no offense to all fiesta owners out there.

IMHO, the Accent's 1.6L gasoline engine will not really be any significantly better than it's competitors like the Fiesta and Mazda2.

The only time the Accent would be better is when the diesel engine option will be available (again).

The Fiesta yes. But even the Mazda 2? It has 20 horses more!

hhmmmm, i was in this situation a few weeks/months ago. I bought a Chevy Cruze. But then again, you already have a Cruze.

Next choice ko would be Hyundai Accent, but when I heard about the 4 speed automatic, I was disappointed.

Fiesta is your bet. I'll choose this over Accent Gas. Accent has 5 year warranty versus Fiesta and both have new looks.

Hard decision as both cars have its points. If your more into hatch, definitely Fiesta, but if you want compact sedan, Accent looks much better than Fiesta Sedan. IMO.

But if you want diesel, go for the Accent, but you have a few months waiting time for it to be launched.

i noticed that the accent's interior looks a lot like our cruze. plus the creases on the sides and even the key.

+1 for fiesta because of this. ayoko namang magkamukha masyado cars namin.

Hmm, fingers crossed nalang sa diesel na Accent

I think Mazda designed the 2 to mimic their Miata. Lightweight = zoom zoom. Reminds me of Lotus tuloy...

As for the comparison, withhold nalang muna ako since wala pa reviews yun Accent. I still don't like the transmission in a world na puro 5-speed. But the dual-clutch system in the Fiesta is more of "marketing" rather than practical in a daily drive.

So.. I'll wait it out nalang muna

i agree that you should wait for the accent diesel sometime next year before deciding

For me it boils down to use... The Accent is more conservatove and the interior design is very conservative, so I would say its suited more for a family man...

The Fiesta is more for individuals... Its steering is sharp and precise and is fun to drive.

Of course no one has driven the new Accent, but if I was a betting man I would bet Ford Europe still makes better handling and sharper handling cars than Hyundai...

Parts are available anywhere and cheaper than ford's. This is if you are thinking 6 years after.

Dashboard customisation is easier compared with fiesta. Mukang walang way para i customise.
