Yes, I do like the way the Civic looks. Parang more spacious pa. I have an hrv, and if in not mistaken, parehas ng engine and tranny with the Civic 1.8E. Fuel consumption talaga advantage nun Jetta. Possibly, the safety features too? Body wise malamang lamang din VW kasi Asian cars latang lata sa nipis?

With regard to maintenance, car plan so company ang may sagot for the next 5 years. So I take care of my cars naman, and resale value is not much of a consideration. I'm maintaining a 20 year old bmw now, and wala pako balak dispose until it's too expensive to maintain na. Sirain na kumbaga. So reliability ang true concern. Honda Civic? Naabuso namin yun dati. Halos parang 4x4 sa naranasan kasi nalusong ko na sa mataas na baha at parang off road sa bundok (erpats ko ang grabe umabuso ng sasakyan kaya alam ko ang sakit ng ulo kapag di ka matuto mag alaga).

Experience ko lang with VW, yun Polo. Wife used to drive one. Sakit sa ulo kasi di talaga kaya nun cooling system init satin. Yun, sandali lang din tinagal.

Civic, tried and tested ko na dati, at di naman nalayo sa HRV ko that I've owned and loved for the past 2 years. Jetta? Baka lang masubukan ang iba.

Salamat sa mga inputs mga sir.
