    Get the Jazz 1.5 A/T instead.

    Why not the Swift 1.5 AT or Jazz 1.3 AT?

    -Swift is a very small car. Seats only FOUR normal sized adults.
    -Swift has practically no trunk space. Only enough space in the back for your purse.
    -Suzuki has one of the WORST service casa in the local market.
    -Suzuki aftersales/afterservice relations is even worst than the service because it is non-existent.

    -Jazz has a much bigger interior than Swift. Great for bringing friends out of town WITH bags in the back.
    -Jazz interior volume is also much bigger, fold down the rear seats and you can transport a whole sofa chair like a Lazy-Boy or your bf's dead body if he ever cheats on you. hehehe.
    -Jazz 1.3l feels very slow, especially accelerating from 60kph to 100kph and beyond.
    -with a price difference only P60K for the 1.3 & 1.5 versions, you get a better car with a more powerful engine, better wheels, etc.
    -1.5L engine will consume roughly the same in fuel as long as you keep a light foot on the pedal.
    -Jazz 1.5L gets more goodies like: side mirror signal lights, power folding side mirrors, paddle shifter, car alarm, etc. (Jazz1.3 doesn't get those).

    -resale of Honda is very good. Lots of demand of 2nd hand honda cars including the Jazz.
    -current Jazz A/T tranny seems to be problem free since it's a traditional a/t system.
