Bwahaha... hardcore, pare... if I were an insurance adjuster and I saw wider front meats on your car, I'd know you were up to something funny... ...I wanted to do the same thing, but I couldn't find the right staggered set in my size.

Too bad you missed the Honda show, they had Jazzes up for test-drive. Maybe at the next Manila Motor Show, you can try both cars and decide for yourself.

What you've got to remember as you test... will that niggling problem (sound over bumps, poor power, tinny doors, whatever) be something I'll get used to over time, or will I eventually come to hate this car? Do I love this car enough to buy it? Does the driver's seat feel like home?

Some of us can live with a tinny, stiff car, some of us don't mind a lack of power or fuel economy... but we're not you. We can only tell you what we like, but what you like is entirely up to you.

Wag mo nang isipin kung anong mas practical... in that case, I'll tell you what I tell everyone who's looking for a practical new car. Bili ka nalang ng Crosswind... they're horrible, but they're economical and will last forever. :hysterical: ...just think about what you want, and go out and test-drive!
