Hi all,

I'm currently choosing between the following variants of the CX-5, CX-3 and the Mazda 3:

Mazda CX-5 2017 2.0L FWD PRO - Php 1.550M (base model)
Mazda CX-3 2017 2.0L FWD SPORT - Php 1.380M (mid-model)
Mazda 3 2017 Skyactiv R 5DR (hatch) - Php 1.268M (mid-model)

I don't need lots of space - usually 1-2 passengers only; commute is mostly Taguig and Makati. I'm not a fast driver. I'm coming from a Subaru Forester, before that the RAV4 (when it was still a small-ish SUV). I occasionally encounter floods, although not too much in the last years, which is why I have opted for an SUV. But I like the CX-3's looks, realized from the threads here that its ground clearance is sedan-like, so I thought I'll add the Mazda 3 na din. My budget is 1.5M and below, preferably below.

Not interested in any of the current offerings of Honda, Toyota, Hyundai. The only other cars I'd be interested in looking at right now are the Nissan Juke NStyle or maybe the Kia Soul CRDi. Maybe the Ford Everest, in the big SUV segment.

I would appreciate your thoughts. Salamat.
