Help me choose - 2009 Civic 1.8V or 2009 Jazz 1.5V

[oflutrev]

Hindi ba pwedeng 1.8S A/T nalang?

My budget can't afford it.

I actually think the Jazz is the better option, if you're okay with the price (which is quite overpriced for its class IMO). It has enough power for everyday use, while also having more features than the relatively bare 1.8V. Its functionality is also a big plus.

My take on this comparo is that if the Jazz 1.5 A/T suits all your car needs, I'd say go for it.

Sure, you are getting more "metal" with the Civic but you will also be getting the base model which lacks some safety features.

At the end of the day, the 76k you saved can be used elsewhere and you will probably get good resale value with the Jazz anyway.

for me , if for everyday used, jazz na ko, makakatipid pa ako sa panggas, i may use that extra money for additional modifications pa,. imagine the difference ng FC ng 1.8 at 1.5 engines. Jazz for practicality on daily usage.

if any special threatment, civic 1.8 na. di hamak na mas maporma sa Jazz, performance wise and safety incentives are better(mas malake kase). uglier FC than Jazz due to engine size difference. Civic for gwapo

imho

BTW magiging 835K Pesos na ang Jazz 1.5 so its better na mag Civic ka na..

I'd go for the Civic, hands down. Bigger car, stronger engine.

I was in the same boat as you justa few months back, choosing between the 1.5V Jazz A/T and 1.8S Civic M/T. I chose the latter. Never regretted my decision.

Feeling ko kasi mabibitin din ako sa 1.5 Jazz (coming from a 2.0 turbocharged car as my previous ride).

pareho tayo bro, inupuan ko at test drive ko both car, parang dumikit na pwet ko sa upuan at ayaw na maalis nong civic na ang drive ko.

ang ganda pa pormahan at kahit stock lang ay solve na.

kaya sa TS, bro, test drive both car and let your heart dictate you which one will you choose.

galing ako sa sub compact, tipid nga ako sa gas, para namang napipilitan lang ako mag maneho araw araw. don na ako sa talagang kursunada ko, nakabuti pa nga sa akin ang price na mahal kasi TIPID mode na ako mula ngayon. no more vices, poker games, sauna, cigarettes, etc. kailangan para sa amortization. hehehe.

If the A/T is not a prerequisite, the Civic 1.8S M/T is the perfect compromise

If the A/T is not a prerequisite, the Civic 1.8S M/T is the perfect compromise

Ito nga sana, "S" variant for 10k more.

I guess I'm different... I like the Jazz more. The Civic may have more elbow room, but the GE Jazz is more comfortable (seats are still hard, but not as bad as the Civic... suspension more pliant) and has very good cargo handling.

As long as you don't carry five people often... and even if you carry four everyday... the Jazz is a better car. More practical, more economical... more toys for your money.

come resale time consider that the jazz currently holds more of it's original value than the civic of the same vintage.

have to check the classifieds though just to be sure.
