which is the better Top of the line Sub-compact sedan (a/t) ?

If the TS' max budget 850k includes already the insurance, LTO and the like then clearly he wont be able to afford the EX GLS.

With that, I'd put the Honda Jazz at the top of my list since space wouldn't really matter as the TS got a Fortuner already. Then the Hyundai Accent will come in next followed by the Honda City.

Well, if the TS' budget is P850 all-in ... the Honda Jazz 1.5L is the preferred choice.

It has big (for it's class) interior space. Sufficient leg room for both front AND rear seats. Large cargo area, fold flat rear seats for even bigger stuff in the back of the car.

Good external looks is a big plus. The standard A/T shifter is the only negative in the way that this car doesn't achieve the same fuel economy figures as the previous model.
