    Usually in the media and reviews ang cinocompare nila are the mid ranges and top of the lines. But what about their Base Model where there is also a significant market?

    BAse Model for all Brands are 4x2 and Manual Transmission. So which vehicle is Bang for the Buck in terms of:

    Reliability
    Performance
    Maintenance
    and Pogi Points.

    Need your inputs sirs

    I'd easily remove the base mu-X LS, a big car worth 1.4M without ABS? Nope. And even if it has, super bare pa din sa loob, no rear wiper too.

    The Everest impressively retains a comprehensive list of active safety features for the Ambiente.

    Theoretically the 1.9 consumes the least amount of fuel and also the lowest maintenance cost, as advertised sa introduction video niya.

    parang wala naman kwenta pagusapan eto comparo na to kasi manual transmission. sa sobrang hirap ng traffic ngaun, magdagdag ka na lang ng pang automatic eh para naman ma-feel mo binile mo. malaki halaga din yan mga base model stripped down na yan more than 1Mil then eh.


    for me, id settle for a civic sedan at na lang kesa sa mga cars na yan or maybe a titanium ecosport or totl vitara


    pero kung mayaman ka tapos can afford ka ng daily driver, swerte mo laki tiped mo sa car purchase kasi di naman ikaw mag-drive

    Test Drive ang best solution.

    our 12 year old daily metro driver MT with over 100K km, still has its original factory clutch.

    Sir dr. d

    As long as po na talagang properly driven at maselan sa maintenance, any minor problem at remedyo agad.. yes!

    tatagal at tatagal po ito..

    hindi lang po ang clutch ang tatagal, lahat related sa engine/electrical, under-chassis/tires/brakes/shocks..

    kahit city driving/highway..

    as long as po na talagang proper maintained, prolonged po ang life..

    Kasi po ngayon, sa mga PPV's segments,

    karamihan, mga 2nd gear start agad....

    lalo sa mga MT...

    Like I said may market pa ang ganitong models that's why nga inooffer pa ng lahat ng suv brand that I mentioned right? And I think you're not part of that market. Kasi nga may mga kautalad mo na di marunong or di kayang mag manual so malamang sa A/T lng ang choice mo...

    May mga katulad ko pa kc who enjoys being in control of the vehicle.

    Agreed. This is not actually the model I'm considering mas may higher variant pa cla na M/T but with same features sa entry level na A/T.

    I would really not recommend this model. Parang pinilit lng talaga ibaba un price but to sacrifice safety features.
