The new Focus 1.5L Ecoboost, that turbo enginr easily trumps the rest in terms if power and torque output. Its handling is just about there together with the Mazda3 and Jetta. Even the base models come with that powerful small turbo engine and decent features, all for a price of around 1M.

With your choices listed, I'd go with the Mazda3 specially if the 2.0L model.

Wouldn't advise going for the focus since you'd be one of the first batches opting in, but if you're okay with that then it should be fine.I'd rather wait for a few months (at least 4) though before buying. The Altis and Mazda 3 would be 'safer' bets for a new car. CMIIW, but I think the Cruze is not as fuel efficient. Sylphy owners here seem to be happy with their rides, but wait for them to chime in with their ownership experience.

if you can wait for the all new '16 civic, that car may be worth the wait

but like bro calistro said, there's a risk in buying a car fresh off the conceptualizer's diagrams and schematics. pero carpe diem nga ika nga sa tag line ni bro calisro

Looks are subjective but i'd go for the Nissan Sylphy. Simple and cheap to maintain has all the basic needs for a car. Biggest cabin space in it's class, best a/c and also the cheapest. Less electronics lesser things to go wrong.

Mazda3 or the 1.5 focus turbo...

Ilang years na ang ecoboost? More than 8yrs and minimal failures naman. Borgwarner turbos are reliable. New transmission is the more reliable one also.
