As of now, still processing pa ang car loan sa company ni wifey. Her first choice now is Honda City 1.5 as her dream car Tucson is out of the budget range. Honda City is a good car, very pricey nga lang...

I think we have to stay away muna sa Rio and Accent due to the unknown quality of the engine and probably parts availability. I think same lang naman sila ng maintenance cost ng Honda?

I also have taken a look at Avanza. Oks naman exterior nya and not so bad interior... Medyo manipis lang cushions sa sets? And as I read, parang pangit ang Fuel consumption nya for the AT variants?

From time to time I am still checking with my wife if she would like a second hand. Ayaw talaga... Mukhang pasok sa price range (750-850k) kasi yung 2009 Ford Everest or 2009 Isuzu Alterra... Too bad more than 1M pa kasi ang 2010 Tucson Diesel and Montero.
