    All variants of the Ford Fiesta versus all variants of the Mazda2.

    How would you compare and rate them against each other?

    Well C! said that FGP effectively damaged the MZ2's sales by introducing the Fiesta...

    I agree with them! The MZ2 might be sportier pero the Fiesta is more civilized and more people prefer civilized driving. Not that the Fiesta is not sporty...

    Personally, I like the 2 hatch in Mazda-trademark Green over the Fiesta in its trademark Chili Orange. Like what tidus mentioned, the 2 appears sportier or projects a sportier image than the Fiesta, which for me, projects a little more serious image. More fun than big brother Focus, but a little more serious than the 2.

    Once you start crunching some figures and consider your brood in the space requirements, though, it's goodbye 2 for me, what with its limited boot space. The Fiesta, though no Honda Jazz, has more room.

    Actually... the Mazda2's only deficit in terms of space is trunk space in the hatch. The sedan's trunk is so big that you won't mind those dozen liters or so of space lost versus the Fiesta or City.

    The Mazda2 and Fiesta handle in a very similar manner. both fantastic little cars to drive. The only difference is that the Mazda2 feels more immediate and livelier. If you're a keen driver, though, you won't be disappointed in either car... though the Fiesta's steering is rather numb around the straight-ahead compared to the Mazda.

    Hmmm... new dream cheap car... Mazda2 1.3MT hatch, just 685k pesos.

    Or the Fiesta 1.4 Trend Sedan...

    Errh....

    Decisions, decisions, decisions...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Surprisingly, why the sedan and why not the Fiesta 1.4 Trend Hatch? Trend hatch is also at Php 685K.

    Both the MZ2 and the Fiesta are good budget compacts. I would gladly go for the Fiesta because its new. Mazda 2? Luma na yan!

    Great comparo sir Nicky (fan here ),

    IMHO Mazda 2 hatch for the looks, it somehow resembles the Peugeot 206 (not sure about the spelling) which looks good in its rally form. But indisputably the prices of the two are almost the same especially the 1.4 and 1.3 version. Even if the Fiesta has the bigger displacement it is undoubtedly heavier than the Mazda 2. which might be enough to make the power to weight ratio almost the same for two. However, I think the Fiesta 1.4 has a lot more gadgets even in base form than the Mazda 2. So in the end, I guess it comes to personal preference. Either way the two are good cars . How I would have loved having the manual transmission in the 1.5l hatch.

    Just my opinion on the matter.
