    Having owned both Hondas and Toyotas, my vote goes to Toyota, why? Parts are so much easier to buy outside of the casa and not to mention that it is substantially cheaper, reliability and dependability I think they are about the same. I used to be a Honda loyalist, but after the SIR I think the Civic just got uglier when the VTEC 3 came along with its weird looking butt and now we have THE UGLIEST of all CIVICs, the FD series. Not to mention the ugliest car on the road today is none other than the 2003-present Honda City.

    honda is still the best for me.
    performance and interior of honda is miles away from the toyota's.
    iba lang talaga yung "the honda factor"

    Ummm. What's wrong if a brand is used as a taxi? Is that a stigma or something?

    ^^ In the Philippines, taxis are looked down at... It gives an idea about being cheap and low class.... It might not be so in other countries....

    ...Then again Benzes are used as taxis in other countries. They're not looked down upon. Heheheh.

    Local culture na lang yang "stigma" ng taxis, kung meron man.

    Please quantify... is this because Honda won't let people use their cars as taxis that you say this? Because Toyota won't let you use th 08 Vios or Corolla as taxis, either... and I've seen more old Corollas (including Altises, mind you) in need of shock replacement than Hondas. I'm not saying that Toyota durability is a myth, but I laugh whenever anyone says that Toyota suspensions are better than the rest. In my experience, Toyota shocks wear out, just like everyone else's.

    The Avanza, yes, you can use it as a taxi, but the suspension feels like it'd come apart over a good sized pothole... ...peace lang, Avanza boys... ...just kidding.

    For the old Corolla 4AFE, this much is still true. You can buy parts for old Corollas anywhere.

    But the new ZZ engines in the current Altis and Vios? Ha. Good luck. For many parts, you still have to go to the specialists in Banawe or the casa like us poor, deluded, non-Toyota owners ( ). It's not as easy as with the old cars, where you could get parts from your neighborhood sari-sari store. My cousin has had to send out for parts for his Altis at times... it's not as easy as it used to be, guys.

    well, I think talagang "maarte" lang ang Honda Motor Philippines. also, Taxi operators dont want unreliable cars eh. gusto nila yung mga sasakyan na matatag at tumatagal, hindi yung panay "porma" lang. hehehe. sorry kung may na offend.

    anywayz, proven na talaga, sa buong mundo na ang Toyota ay #1 . sorry ha, opinion ko lang yan. also, statistics doesnt lie and thats a fact. also, ano ba ang ranking ng Honda ngayon??


    aite, peace.

    if this is the rule... i'm for the MITSU... hahahahahaha!
    back to the topic, i'm for the Honda...why? i find the toyotas overpriced and over-hyped..
    besides, maintenance wise, halos pareho lang din sila... i would just prefer the newer technology of the hondas.
