    Am an FXT owner. Love the power and gas is cheap. Car is reliable and service is good (Motor Image, not Whitehorn). Only problem is the overpriced Subaru parts for the Philippines - a major concern when the warranty lapses.

    Bro it's true that Subaru owners have more difficulty in terms of parts replacement compared to your regular Jap brands. But for regular PMS, it shouldn't be a problem. Same with Mazda, regular PMS is hassle-free thanks to Yojin 3.

    You could expect that the CRV will be the easiest to source parts for, should major things break down. My friend who has a 3-year old CRV hasn't had any problems with her casa-maintained war car. However, I think that the extra character and better drive of the Forester/CX5 is worth it over the bland but easy-to-maintain CRV.

    Mas matipid din pala sa gas yung CX5 because it's smaller and has no AWD. But ultimately bro I think di ka talo either way. Both are great cars - take both for a spin and sundin mo lang puso mo.

    If 'hassle-free' maintenance is very high on your priority list, then I'm guessing it's still better to stick with Toyota or Honda no matter how boring...

    Thanks bro jut and all! My heart goes to the CX5 but my brain is telling me it is the forester. Plus side is the dealer at BGC is very close to the office so I can just leave it for PMS and pick it up later. I think with my line of work (and my age bracket) the fozie would also complement as compared to the cx5 which is more for millenials like *jut :D. So im bitting the bullet today.

    Welcome to the club..

    Masaya yan, wag mo lang kalimutan ilagay sa sport mode pag, walang traffic. Although di naman siya lilipad pag naka sport, pag naka I kasi talagang parang ayaw ka paalisin..hehe
