Which car to buy? Honda Jazz 1.5v 2012 or Accent 1.6 GLS 2012

kaya ba ng jazz 200 kph?

AFAIK. The Jazz is electronically limited to 190kph. Pero pag natanggal daw yung limiter umaabot daw ng 220. May nakapagsabi lang saken.

surprising to notice that nobody has even touched on the MAGIG 'ULT' SEATS of the jazz

actually, getting a ride all depends on what your needs are. i can't really point out the pros and cons of the accent since i haven't drove or own one.

but with the jazz..as they say..usually, the owners are the educated ones. since most would usually tell you that it's a bit pricey..but these owners, they know what their getting. really a bang for the buck. specially the 1.5V Jazz, the exterior itself speaks for itself. even if you don't touch anything..it's already a cut above in it's segment. specially the 1.5V that honda was able to a unit that has the same exterior as the Fit RS in japan..instant JDM looks for your ride. it handles well even on stock wheels which i must say is by far the closest JDM-specd ride you can get locally. the brake lamps and tails are all LED already. and a plus that fog lights comes as standard for the 1.5 units.

as for the inside, you won't get a more spacious sub-compact car than the Jazz. get inside and you'll know what i'm talking about. the interior is so spacious that 5 persons, would be sitting comfortably in it. the tall head room, lots of leg room are just a few on how spacious the Jazz is. and fold down the rear seats and you instantly have room for lots of stuffs. the best i was able to do with it was haul a 9ft. long pole inside (yes..it fits when you also fold down the front passenger seat. with just the rear folded down..i was able to place inside a 5ft. x 4ft. painting that was framed..try putting that inside an accent

with regards to it's fuel consumption. with my 1.5v jazz. i've managed 10-11kms/L, combination of with traffic and without. but if your up to as we say 'rezing..rezing' your FC would definitely go down to around 7-8kms/L. stretch your legs a bit on the expressway and you'll have around 15-17kms/L

can't think any much as of the moment. but the thing is..get a Jazz and you'll never regret it. with regards to it's resale value..it has one of the highest that's sold here locally. and by the way..when you already own a Jazz..it will be far fetched that you think of selling it even if having it for years already

by the way, the house beside ours has an accent..and there is no way it would stand up against our Jazz *

boss troy, may kaaway? haha!!!

Very well said. I STRONGLY AGREE sa LAHAT ng sinabi mo boss wink.
Wala naman boss, gara lang kasi magsalita. Nabasa mo naman diba. Di naman siguro ganun katindi yung nasabi ko para sabihan ako ng ganun. :O

[wink200k]

*iamvillyboy: 200kph? sabi nga ni boss troy, kung aalisin yung limiter, kaya. tried 160kph once sa nlex..engine all stock. but if your considering a ride that runs 200kph on the regular..medyo mali ng car segment yung choice mo

*troy: oo nga boss, napansin ko din, bilis nag react eh wala naman mali, basta may basis yung statement sabagay, madami naman na kong nakitang new latest model ng accent..madami din naisip na mods. chrome accents sa tails, heads, doors, trunk..actually lahat. nakakasilaw nga..the best is, red yung hyundai emblem..type R ata. ay..di pala, may mugen emblem nga pala sa trunk

sorry, out of topic na.haha!!!

[iamvillyboy]

Kaya nga e, grabe maka react kala mo naman napakatindi nung sinabi ko against sa accent, haha.
Grabe naman yung nakita mo daig pa sila 50 cent sa bling bling! hahaha!
Teka parang nakita ko yan sa FB page ng Top Gear Phil. ah. )
Baka bukas makalawa makakita na din tayo ng accent na may emblem/decals ng J's racing at spoon. )
Oh baka sabihin nung isa dyan na di naman masama maglagay nun.
Isipin mo maglagay ka ng ralliart na sticker sa isang toyota vehicle, o diba ang sagwa lang? HAHAHA!

We bought our Jazz last September 28. And I must say it's a very great car to drive everyday. The fuel consumption is great on the Jazz. For a daily driver I can stretch my P500+ gas for 2-3 days and I drive at least 80+km. So for me it's really good. Compared to our Toyota Revo that I used to drive everyday which uses P500+ gas a day, I really enjoy the savings on our fuel expenses.
Performance wise the Jazz is good for a daily driver's car. The speed/power is just right,It handles pretty well around corners and very easy to park. I also love how the Jazz looks,the factory body kits are aggressive that I thought it was aftermarket at first.

The Jazz really suits my needs for a daily driver's car. For the 857K price tag I'd say its a good deal but considering the other offerings out there the Jazz may not be the best but for me,it really fits the bill. On the downside, there is a paint problem our unit,which I am still thinking on how to deal with.... but over all it's a good ride,well suited for my needs.

But I also have the Accent as one of my choices, I could say it's a good car too but it's not well suited for my needs and I have prior experience with Hyundai vehicles (so does with a Honda) and I'm more used to driving a hatchback. It really boils down to your needs sir. I know we have made a good choice with our Jazz. I hope you sir can make a good choice too. Just do some additional research on both vehicles and your needs, how far and how often you will use the vehicle,your fuel expenses...etc.

Jazz: 13
Accent: 2
Medyo mismatch ata.

Troy anong problema mo?

Tumigil ako para di na lumala.

Ikaw 'tong naghahanap ng gulo. Tumahimik ako tapos hinahanap mo 'ko.

Sabi mo gago ako? oo matagal ko nang alam, tarantado't mayabang pa.

May sinabi ba akong salungat sa Jazz? Wala.

Bumoto nga rin ako sa Jazz eh. At kung sa tingin mo ako yung nakipag giyera sa TGP, hindi ako yun. Founder namin sa THP yun.

On a serious note, Jazz is really better than Accent in terms of every aspect. Lamang mo lang sa Accent boot space pero may ULT seats ang Jazz. Esp. kung di mo masyado kailangan yung rear seats, alam na pwedeng gawin :naughty2:

Yung Accent okay naman, pero owning the 1.4 A/T is a nightmare. sa 1.6 GLS medyo ayos-ayos pa pero may ilan na kumakatok din. At lahat ng Accent sobrang lambot ng rear suspension, problema din yan.

Lately ang Hyundai nasasangkot sa iba't ibang sh!t, lalo na yung local distributor, HARI dahil sa PMS scheme nila at how they react on warranty claims.

So far in owning "few" Hyundais and a Kia that are worth more than a million pesos, I'm sure that their quality is really far from the cars they sell in late 90's. Hindi pa ako binibigyan ng sakit sa ulo. Sarap nga i-drive eh.

Wala akong galit sa Jazz o sa Honda, dati akong may EK SiR, FD 1.8S at nasa akin pa yung 3rd Gen RE4 CR-V K24 4WD.

Pwede natin mahalin ang kotse natin, wag lang masyado panatiko ika nga. Hindi naman tayo basta basta dito eh, may sinabi tayo.

* Bibili ako ng lintik na Accent na yan kapag lumabas na yung CRDi hatch, pang-bastos lang

I'm not pointing out na ikaw yung nakipag giyera sa TGP, sinasabi ko lang na pangit din magpa PMS sa casa na yun.
Sige tatahimik na din ako.
