- more on city driving
- first time driver (learned from driving school) - still noob about cars, this will also be my first car

we have the same dillema sir. i am torn between mazda 2 1.5 sedan M/T which is P725,000 and honda city 1.3S M/T which is P731,000. we already have a vios 1.3E M/T which is my car and my dad will be given a company car and mazda 2 at city ang choices. 1.5 city is way off the budget, gusto namin manual kaya accent,jazz, are off our list. for me, parang mas prefer ko yun mazda with it's bigger engine displacement. pero ang inaalala ko e yung maintenance at availability ng parts which is mahirap daw sa mazda at ford. please enlighten us mga experts!

hehe. Ano po FC ng Vios mo sa city driving?

[zel.chikot]

actually nun nagcompute ako sir, mixed highway/city driving with some hataw umabot ng almost 14 km/l siya. matipid talaga. sana city 1.3s matipid din :D

[zel.chikot]

Fuel Consumption = VIOS hands down.

Practicality = VIOS padin because of cheaper pms and parts are very easy to find.

Safety = CITY

Handling = MAZDA 2

Performance = MAZDA 2 because of it's bigger displacement. 1.5L vs 1.3. pero i think hindi ganon kalaki difference.

Exterior Looks and Quaility / Porma o Dating = CITY or MAZDA 2. common kasi sa mata yun vios e. although i own a vios.

Stock Features = CITY

Interior Looks and Quality = CITY

Comfortability = CITY

Maintenance (per PMS) = VIOS

Relaibility = VIOS/CITY

Resale Value = VIOS/CITY

Parts = VIOS

For looks..Mazda 2. Girls will like it as well
But for comfort I like the Vios of the 3. VERY smooth.
Vios is also very good for fuel consumption.
The City is spacious..but like you said you're not interested since you're a bachelor.
The city is also tipid..not bad... i got about 10km/liter city driving, has high resale value... easy to find parts and aftermarket stuff.
Mazda is still new..so it might be alittle difficult to find the "goods' for this car in Banawe..but yeah it's possible.
The Vios is established here. It doesn't have GREAT looks..but if you can customize it, or do something really nice n clean, it'll be a subtle looker.
