    my brother's been waiting for the picanto since nov (i was the one who recommended it to him since i couldn't wait & got myself a 2nd hand sedan instead)....but now,coz of the all the negative things surrounding the picanto,i've recommended to him the getz...last saturday,he made a reservation on the getz & cancelled the one on the picanto...probably a blessing in disguise coz the getz does seem to be the better choice :D

    "negative things" not the car bro,but the greed of kia/dealers (continued price increase=60t in 2-3mos?!?what the hell was that?;disregard for 1st come-1st-served policy,etc) & the lack of available units

    Surfed the 'Net on this one. Automobile reviewers pick the Getz over the Picanto.

    well, april's just around the corner, makakaantay naman cguro bro mo so he can give both a test drive. what's the worst that could happen, makakakuha sya ng additional interest by keeping his money in the bank? ;)

    Ang worry ko lang sa Getz e its already a 2+ product life cycle. Baka palitan kaagad ng bagong body.

    In addition, Getz weighs about a ton as compared to picanto's 870+kg. D kaya mahirapn yung 1.1 engine sa Getz?

    According to Reuters (I know it isn't a car magazine) the Getz will be updated in 2010 pa daw.

    Getz is a lot better and more utility function in terms of space and handling. I've driven my cousin's Getz and suspension is not bad. Very nimble and drives well.

    Forget the picanto. You will not want to deal with the distributor ( Columbian Motors ) or its dealers.

    How about airconditioning? I read from a review in Australia one of his qualms about Getz is its aircon.

    ET1,

    Aircon also OK. Just like the Starex, the aircon has been replaced with a brand that is more suitable to Philippine tropical condition. It is no longer the original.
