    A friend of mine asks me what car to buy with a 700k-750k budget. He needs a car that:

    -can carry 4-5 persons including driver comfortably.
    -powerful and fast enough to haul 3-4 pax on provincial/highway roads and expressways and could easily overtake if needed.
    -fuel efficient
    -cheap pms costs
    -cheap to maintain after warranty
    -durability
    -ease of owning it. hindi masakit sa ulo at di ka pababalik balikin sa casa for warranty claims

    Di ko na sinama accent crdi because masyadong bare yung manual. abs+ebd malaking factor especially laging may out of town trips with family. 4 sila sa family actually at yung price *808k wala pang abs+ebd over na sa budget. Sinama ko lang yun G4 and hatch kasi feature packed naman at their price pero mukhang masikip sila sa hatch. What are your inputs guys? Please help! Kung may gusto idagdag na option pwede. Thanks!

    Yun din sabi ko sa kanila e hehe. Kahit na wala ng touch screen aircondition controls, foglights, 60:40 rear bench, steering wheel audio controls etc haha. Kaya lang medyo masakit tanggapin yung steel rims. Kaya naipasok si 1.5 fiesta trend e. Any feedbacks from the FoFi 1.5 trend mt?

    May isang 2013 accent hatch manual tranny pa na available sa Hyundai QA. The one with abs +ebd. 768k less 40k pa, so pasok sa budget.

    If not, take the city

    Sige sir I'll let him know. Regarding sa maintenance, hindi ba mas mabilis ang wear and tear ng parts ng accent compared sa vios or city? Especially sa suspension parts base sa mga nababasa ko. Thanks!

    Parehas lang yan. Syempre idaan mo lagi sa lubak at paliparin mo sa humps, wasak talaga suspension mo nun.

    Di ko naman sinasabing idadaan sa lubak at paliliparin sa humps. Real world scenario. Sa mga nababasa ko e parang madali magpalit ng mga pang ilalim sa accent.

    i have my G4, but i recommend either city or vios.

    among your choices kasi mirage ang pinakamaliit ang makina though power over weight ratio naman ang pambawi nila... im not telling mahina ang g4/hb.. kung package, fuel efficiency and durability.. ok ang mga mirage variants.

    but based on the usage condition mas ok kunin yung dalawang suggestion above.
