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

**CVT** · September 28th, 2016 12:56 PM

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....

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.

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.

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?
