help! Jazz 1.3 AT or Swift AT?

**Jecoism** · January 10th, 2010 09:26 PM

My Honda agent adjusted a bit yung insurance (malayan), LTO etc, pero yung Unit price wala talagang discount, that somehow reduced my outlay by around 10k i think. Hingi ka nalang ng freebies if ever like full windshield tint and etc.

I agree with niwde11, Probably low demand to think na medyo luma na yung face ng Yaris, they're giving huge discounts. Or over-pricing it then slashing off huge sa price to make it look like they're giving huge discounts.

Toyota game me 50k discount for my yaris.

Don't know for mazda.

My friend even got P70,000 so yung 1.5 M/T nya naging P633,000 na lang; that was back in June 2009 pero I doubt kung ganun na yan kalaki since kakalabas lang ng facelifted Yaris. What I know is P30,000 off at the very least!

Mag Suzuki Swift ka nalang.

Eh yung Swift naman ang liit, walang cargo space, tapos malakas pa sa gasolina compared sa Jazz and Yaris. Tapos Suzuki pa meaning lower resales and bad service and after-sales...

Sa Jazz wag ka ng umasa sa discounts, sa MZ2 malabo din yan since new model (although in general Mazda is also generous in discounts but only for old models like Mazda 3). Sa Yaris and Swift (tinangal mo na nga pala

) baka pwede...

I think the Swift's engine was co-developed by Toyota but they are not the same. The Yaris and Vios used the 1NZ-FE engine while the Swift uses M15A...

Owning a car is more than just "the car". You have to consider how it would fit in your lifestyle. Also the aftersales support quality, is it good or bad. It would affect how you would own the car in the long run.

The Swift is a very small car. Four people and cargo space big enough only for a handbag

And the Suzuki aftersales support can be described in one word, "sucks".

Current 30k discount is the standard discount AFAIK. Fact is honda doesn't give any, even for their civic fd that is one of my options last 2007.

Pero overpricing it then give a huge discount to make it look like discounted? I don't know about that. As I've said, if the Yaris and Jazz 1.5L A/T has a price difference of 10-15k, then I'll go for the Jazz without a question. But 100k peso difference? That's going overboard.

The price of Yaris can only get you a 1.3L Jazz.

Bang for the buck? Yaris, no doubt.

If the TS got money to burn and wants the 60/40 rear split seats and rear disk breaks, then the 1.5L AT Jazz it is.

If we compare at price point: 1.5L Yaris vs 1.3L Jazz, we have a clear winner if we compare the spec sheets. Numbers don't lie.

If we compare the exterior, on what is more beautiful? That is based on opinion.

a friend bought a jazz last month - no unit discount. if you really want a head turner, it definitely is going to be the mazda 2 because it's new in the market.

i had the chance to drive a jazz 1.3 m/t and a yaris (1.5) a/t. for me i had more fun driving the yaris because it's small and nimble. i just don't like the instrument panel being in the center.
