    Hi, my girlfriend is on a shopping for a car. With a budget of 800-900k she'll be the one to shoulder the cost (Loan on bank).
    We're not really rushing this so we want to execute this as smooth as possible.
    Priorites are the following:
    -Space
    -Decent looks on its price
    -AT
    -Features and safety

    So far she is looking into this list (No MT please):
    Jazz
    City
    Juke, but 980k, given the budget she really prefers this.
    Mazda 2
    Elantra
    Ecosport

    You could also suggest a decent 2nd hand car. As i'm also convincing her on this.
    Thanks!

    Yup, actually her 2nd choice is the jazz. Gusto ko nga MT kunin nya para parehas kaming masaya HAHA. Anyway, does the jazz shares the same engine with the city?

    Hyundai Accent CRDi 7DCT pasok sa budget mo. Car is ridiculously fuel efficient and powerful all the same.

    Kung SUV, baka pwede pag-isipan ang BRV. Base model is 900+k IIRC. I believe its the only one in its class to offer 7 seats at the moment.

    Kung open sa 2nd hand, the possibilities are almost endless. Yun nga lang, dapat straight payment kundi lugi ka.

    For beginners, get a small cheaper car. Ground clearance should be considered. The excess money can be used for body repairs etc. Get insurance if new driver

    I agree! Btw, if you mean beginner, does that mean you will buy another car after more or less 5yrs? If its just for moving around the city, consider the small ones (picanto, wigo, spark, mirage, etc) as this is much cheaper compared to the common sedans around the city (honda, vios, etc) then once you are accustomed with driving just replace them with the ones you truly like.

    How about swift mga sir? Nirerecommend ko din ito since decent looks, cheaper the most sedan.

    Swift 1.2 is fun to drive and you have 170mm ground clearance. Mataas yun! PERO... hindi isya CVT. So baka gusto mo mag Mirage 160mm yun.

    Jazz pros: fuel efficient, spacious, exterior looks (not for all) cons: dead feel cvt, cheap interior

    Mazda 2: pros: fuel efficient, exterior looks, premium interior, yojin 3, fun to drive, also named car of the yr japan and ph cons: sikip sa likod

    Based on your criteria: the Jazz is the best. The best safety features, great space and economy, easy to drive and park and IMHO the best looks.
