just saw the focus diesel yesterday at fillinvest, alabang.
they said 9 sec at 100kph & 18km/l consumption
...torque is far good compared to civic.
if you are into color, choices are tonic & blue color only.

Which is which? The Civic is a Honda, the Focus is a Ford.
The Focus has better fuel consumption, better acceleration (recorded 8.6 seconds 0-100, stock... over and over and over again... the clutch is indestructible) and better handling (though the Civic is lighter, which leads to better slalom times). But the Focus costs over 150,000 - 200,000 pesos more.
If you can afford the TDCi, go ahead. It's the best CRDi engine on the market right now, in terms of its combination of fuel economy and power. But the Civic 1.8 MT is a fun car, and it's also pretty fast. It's probably the best value for its price range, if you're looking at the base model.

It's over 20 km/l on the highway. 21 is possible on the NLEX.
In traffic, it's more like 13-16 km/l.

Have driven both, and personally i'd go for the ford focus TDCi. hanep sa acceleration and handling is more refined vis-a-vis the honda civic.
Choosing one would depend on your driving and parking conditions. Do you have your own garage =...
