Buying for wife - Honda HR-V, Subaru XV, Mazda CX-3

[CVT]

At those SRPs (and no issue on the cost - from what I read),- my take would be to buy the next level SUV,- Everest, Fortuner, MuX, Montero... And, you have more options with your ride and ride space.

Unless, wifey is constrained to that class of vehicles... Or, no space in your garage....

Why not wait for my pres to double the salary and reduce income tax that would increase your take home pay? By then you can afford the CX5, Forester or CRV.....or wait for the dollar to strengthen further and the VAT to increase and the sh!t to hit the fan.

Sorry, bitter lang and hindi pa naka move on.

Don't worry, bossing. Gaya ng nasabi ko sa umpisa pa lang, wala tayong issue sa pambili. What we want is the fun!

Thanks, boss. Meron nang more spacious na SUV at may pickup na nagagamit. Kaya kailangan yung mas maliit dahil hirap sa pagparada and of course consider na din yung may nakakatuwang mga laruan.

kung wala issue sa pambile, bile ka na lang ng Jeep Renegade 1.9M+

Boss TS, I'm assuming you're not a JDM fanatic. Kasi if I will choose, no second thoughts on the HR-V. Very attractive kasi yung Mugen variant, hehe! Instantly JDM looks; no need to import hard to find Mugen body kits.

Among the choices, ok sana yung XV. Problem nga lang is yung availability ng parts (i. e. headlight, fender, bumper, etc.). According to some owners, they waited for months before dumating (not so sure though kung ganun pa din until now).

honda hr-v mukang sedan pag malayo. mas ok pa kumuha ng Nissan Juke at least mas mukang SUV. yan ang naging basehan ko last Feb. maka-Honda åkö pero naman, why buy a 1.1M+ sedan. walang ka-advantage advantage

mas ok pa nga XV, pero yoko nga ng Subaru. taga-introduce lang naman yan brand nyan, nag-introduce ng compact CUV 3 years ago, ginaya ng leading brands. kalimutan na sila, bågsak na sales nila.

Unless you ran into some serious fender benders or a big accident of sorts, only then will you worry about such parts replacement. There are already a lot of XV's on the road so I assume the fear of parts availability is outweighed by its usefulness and versatility.

Thanks, both. Crossover kasi ang gusto. Mataas ng kaunti.

That's the thing, hindi mataas yung CX3. When you ride one parang sedan lang din talaga.

Mas masikip sa Mazda 3, kasing baba lang halos ng Mazda 3, mas mahal sa Mazda 3.

If you want something higher that's still fun, CX5 Pro.

If you want something fun and money isn't a problem, get the Forester XT. No other CUV under 2M performs like it. Yes the Forester is bigger than your original crop of choices, but it's very easy to drive around town because the Forester offers very good visibility all around.

No love for the CX-5 Skyactiv-D?

*confusedshoes - give the Forester XT a test drive and you'll know what jut703 has said.

Anyone has first-hand reviews on these oil-burners? It has ample amount of torque on low rpms. I guess it can match the quickness of the Forester XT.

Si kumander ang gagamit. Mahiram paminsa-minsan.

Price, economy, and resale value is not a factor.

I'll pitch in two wild cards.

Sir Niky, saw your video sa TGP. Baka meron kang additional points to look at. Planning to drive the CX-3 this afternoon.

Nice car. Check that you can find a comfortable driving position (tilt only wheel, no telescopic action) and that the ride is to your liking.

Note that the ride comfort will vary between the AWD with the big ass wheels and the base model FWD with the 16s.

Insurance pa lang, downpayment na sa "pang-masa" car.

Great initial torque, doesn't have the up-top punch of the 2.5 gasser, but economy is much, much better. More midrange means it's faster in the real world without having to wring it out.

No, it won't match the XT in a drag race, but in overtaking situations, the better transmission and more accessible torque means it's quicker in low speed overtaking or short squirts. But if you keep your foot buried in the carpet for more than a few seconds, it ain't going to match the XT.

And it's hideously expensive. The 2.0 Pro has decent economy, a better ride (lighter wheel-tire combo), better handling (little more lively due to the lower weight) and is better bang for the buck.

Ahh, yes! I saw one. From MOA, saan ang pinakamalapit na dealer?

Thank you, sir.

Napatakbo ko na yung AWD with the Bose audio system. Istorbo yung HUD na nakataas sa may ibabaw ng instrument panel. Masyadong magaan ang manibela at medyo matalbog sa likod. Parang mas maganda ang ride ng HR-V which I tested also yesterday. May be because of the wheels? Parang mas mabilis mag response ang HR-V pagtapak sa gas. Dahil AWD yung CX? Ang interior, maganda!

Meron syang iStop na nakakagulat.

Agent said, Mazda shipped only 300 units to test the market and they don't have plan to ship more. Hindi ko lang alam kung hanggang saan ang nalalaman nung agent.

When i test drove the hrv, parang makupad? Mas masarap pa idrive ang mobilio na 1.5 engine lang. Ganun din experience ng kasama kong nagtest drive din. Yung cx3 ayos. Lakas ng hatak

Yung price factor ay among the 3 lang, boss.

[jut703]

CX5 Pro costs as much as a CX3 TOTL. Why not the CX5?

Maybe they already have a compact crossover and a PPV ...

*confusedshoes - have you asked your wife what she really likes? There's no point pushing for options that you like when she wants something different.
