    Lahat din ng kausap ko, bat di ka nalang nag toyota lagi sinasabi. hehe

    Lahat naman yan maganda, wag lang china brand. nasa gumagamit lang yan.

    Nakasubok na ko ng vios at mirage g4.

    Mirage MT. 3 cylinder matipid sa gas. kaya lang may vibrations kasi nga 3 cylinders. makalampag sa lubak. Ok naman aircon nya.

    Vios superman. Drives like accent, mas comfortable kesa sa G4, kaya lang malakas sa gas yung AT na 1.3. Mas maluwag sa loob.

    Depende siguro sa bibili kung ano mapusuan nya hehe. Parehas naman maganda.

    i agree.
    beauty is always in the eyes of the beholder.
    all cars have advantages and dis-advantages. it is up to the buyer to decide, rightly or wrongly, what features he values more.
    some folks choose a car for what it offers in the showroom. others choose their cars, for what they perceive it will be, 5 years down the road. still others, simply get what is placed on their lap (chosen by authority).

    Granted, if your priority is point-of-sale, money-down affordability, practicality, and don’t care about the other shortcomings, then this is the car for you. But if you're even just a tiny bit of a car enthusiast, maybe not.

    I've ridden in a lot of G4 as a Grab passenger and I can tell you that it's awful. The racket the suspension makes feels like the road is three inches from my head. The A/C seems to have been designed for front passengers only. As one reviewer put it, it's like a street-legal lawnmower.

    But as mentioned, at the end of the day, it depends on your individual preference whether the car is acceptable or just plain crap.

    When you have a thread title and first post that makes sweeping generalizations as if there's only one good choice and anyone else who has chosen differently is an idiot, then you're definitely gonna get a lot of strong opposing opinions.

    Simula pa lang, naghahanap na ng away. This thread could've been phrased with more finesse and tact to facilitate better discussion instead of fueling brand wars again.

    I see no counter points as to why the G4(small subcompact) would be a good buy for 2019 given the new xe(subcompact) is cheaper by 35,000. Kismet mentioned good fc, no steering fluid and cheaper oil changes by 200ish pesos.

    Like I said, you could make the exact same point without being so brazen about it. [emoji6]

    Refund lang ? or meron din danyos perwisyo? Tapos bayad din ba si mitsubishi dealer sa attorneys fee ng friend mo?

    At this segment, medyo cut troat ang competition since target audience is those starter or has not have much savings yet.
    60k can be diverted to another urgent need or investment or anything else.

    The new vios doesnt have discount yet cause it is new. But maybe revisiting it sometime later would yield a different conclusion (when discounts are already there).

    Eitherway, im still holding on my segement per segment bang for buck list (it is my opinion anyway and doesnt enforce it to others).


    Oh.. and btw, gas cost pa nga pala. Hehehe.
    Im hoping that the new vios has improved mileage compared to 3rd gen.

    One thing about the mirage though, ang laki pala ng boot space niya. Very deceptive!

    Malaki na trunk capacity ng fd2 ko for a sedan pero nagulat ako na nagkasya iyong malaking ice box sa likod ng g4 ng sister ko - w/ room to spare pa! [emoji33]

    MSG Unicorn ah... hahaha. BTT... Mirage is still a good car, but to tell that Vios is better is still subject to people's priority.

    I agree. It totally depends on the buyer.

    I've driven the Mirage G4, the Mirage HB and the Vios. The Vios is definitely an upgrade over the Mirage. Long drives make me regret driving the Mirage (I have long legs, so the seat adjustment makes it awkward as i'm either too near the steering wheel or too far).

    If i was the cash-strapped buyer looking for something to tget me from point A to B, then I'd go for the car with the 1) lower price tag, and 2) more fuel efficient. But if I want the most bang for the buck, I'd go for the Vios XE.

    I honestly would like to see how Mitsubishi reacts to the XE's pricing...

    Both are under the CARS program which means they are locally assembled with government incentives if they meet the necessary criterias.

    Will Mitsubishi lower the price of the GLS, or add features to the GLX?

    Other manufacturers will also need to make a move (Suzuki, Nissan, VW, Chevrolet and Hyundai)

    Funny joke sa office, anong safety feature nanaman kaya ang tatanggalin sa Accent

    IMO, remember the introductory pricing of the Mirage (hatchback and G4)

    I personally think that's the max amount they can charge for their car.
