I asked him about the MS, too big naman daw. :|

Are there any other cars that are cheaper than the Focus TDCi but fits his needs?

Honda Jazz

His mother thinks the Jazz is too small.

Ang problema, his parents, who will pay for the car, shoot down so many good options.

Chevy Cruze, it's supposed to be very fuel efficient and very spacious.

Get the TDCI. It will take long before the new Focus gets here. So he will be enjoying around three years of being current.

Anyway..

Tucson owners beware

That Escape is THE SAME Escape sold here. USDM Ford just facelifts better. So in essence, that USDM Escape has been getting facelifts since 2000.

Yeah the Cruze is an option but fuel efficient it is not... The car seems heavy for its engine...

They want a bigger car but budget is limited. Hyundai Tucson is the best bet.

Ayaw nga ng parents ng Korean... Ewan ko sa kanila, bahala na sila anong bilin nila. They don't want the best? Then I can't offer any suggestions any longer...

ayaw daw ng korean paps.

between the two Focus TDci for me. i think the buyer is leaning towards the ASX, so i suggest Lancer GLX/GLS na lang. kamukha naman ng ASX, better FC (mas magaan kesa sa ASX) and maganda ride for long trips. he can do a lot of modifications(body kits and perfromance) later in case he gets bored.

Between the ASX and TDCi, I'd go with the TDCi.

Having said that though, and since the parents don't like Korean, I'd go for the Escape and slap on some big rims.

Focus for the win pa rin. I would choose a diesel CRDI engine against a gas engine one anytime. Ang sarap ng feel ng high torque plus the HP and FC. You can never go wrong.
