Battle of the Subcompact Cars (Mirage, Fiesta, Wigo, Brio, etc.)

[jut703]

Is this the City GE or the much older City GD (IDSI)? Our City GE has that "ka-blag" sound and jarring feel on humps and potholes if approached faster than crawling speed. You really have to slow down or feel that "ka-blag".

GE bro. Yup it sounds like the suspension's gonna break everytime you approach anything at speed. Im used to flying over humps since I have a pickup but everytime I use my mom's City I have to baby it.

Re: Honda Brio.

Considering that it will probably use certain Honda only fluids, is it safe to say that it will be expensive to maintain?

Re: Get my priorities straight

Actually, I already have a very short list and they are not minis (Please see the Mirage vs Yaris vs Jazz thread). This thread is for my office mate who will also be buying a car.

BUT

If i would get a mini it will be a battle between the Mirage GLS and the lowest variant Brio (which may change once the official specs has been released.)

A Wigo is a fine choice but my situation demands that I have some sort "power reserve" since I do haul stuff often and I do go through the Carmona-Silang Road (Governor's Drive) often as well. I am not comfy with the stock power of the Wigo.

BUT

If I would drive within the city only, then winner is the one with the better ride experience and gives me the best economy in terms of fuel.

Re: Fiesta

Umayos na ba ang durability ng Ford? Meaning, will the Fiesta last past 10 years and still give comparative performance as against its peers of the same age?

To all:

wow, salamat sa mga nagpost ng mga bagay bagay na hindi pumasok sa isip ko na i-consider.
