    If you want "Matipid", go for the Ford Focus Diesel or try checking out the Chevy Cruze Diesel too. I like the look of the Cruze plus it is very spacious.

    From your three choices, all of them can be dressed up to be maporma. And as rattrapante suggested. Why not look at the Cruze which is getting more popular because of its foray in the World Touring Car Championships, this may still be within your budget.



    As for a car that is spacious, look for one which also offers folding rear seats so if you do decide to bring more than what your trunk can handle, you still have that extra space.

    As for the uniqueness of each vehicle, I would say each of them will have a unique feature. Look at the Ford Focus with its 6-speed PowerShift transmission.

    Economy? Study this very well. There is such a thing as cost of ownership. So far Diesel cars are very matipid, but when it comes to servicing, they can cost as much as an arm and a leg. Are you shouldering the cost of maintenance as well, or are your parents picking up the tab on this one? Example, at 60,000km, the Focus 1.8 PMS(Periodic Maintenance Schedule) costs Php 5,780.00 while the Focus TDCi PS PMS costs Php 22,690.00. How many liters of gasoline will that amount to?

    Good luck!

    Mahirap po parts niyan.

    Yung isang Cruze po sa thread niyo, 3 months, hindi pa rin po gawa.

    Malakas din ng konti sa gas.

    OT: Yan ang typical mentality ng average American these days kaya lakas ng Ford kasi may sense of national pride sila for the only local who didn't take government money to survive... Pero honestly, mute na yan ngayon even GM and Chrysler are back and profitable again. Only a hardcore capitalist like me refuses to buy and reward companies who took government money to survive!

    Out of the 3 choices, Lancer GT-A nalang ang kunin niyo kasi ung Focus and Civic ay may lalabas na new model late this year or next year. Kaya the best is hintayin niyo nalang ung new models.

    GT-A if parents pays for fuel, Focus TDCi if I will pay for the fuel...

    If you are talking about the new Focus, then I would wait for that...

    Yun 1.2++M ng GT-A boss may less 150k discount na yata ngayon (for a reason na made in philippines na siya) hindi na CBU. Last info ko yan from SA

    If hindi ka pwede lumampas ng 1million Hyundai Elantra ka na lang sir may sukli pa 1m mo 6spd dual cvvt over the civic na due for replacement na din. Kung okay naman lumampas GT-A na lang unless you're willing to wait for the new Focus. But if you're like me we're eyeing for the Focus TDCi since 1.099M na lang siya kahit papalitan na discounted naman.
