    Pero if its the lancer EX, then, I'd doubt it. Hehe.

    The Lancer Cedia can be bought in colors other than white. I have seen a number of brand new Lancer Cedias on the road and they look good. The Mazda3's design actually looks more "tired" than the Cedia.

    Regarding the Lancer EX, I am actually noticing more and more on the road & around the metro parked in homes, offices, malls, etc.

    Yup, I agree. More Lancer EX's without plates yet. Proves that Filipinos do buy cars that are made by kapwa Filipinos

    Well hopefully it would be true, since we badly need jobs for Filipinos here plus IMO the lancer EX is indeed great looking.

    Its not that Filipinos are buying new Lancer EXs because it's assembled by Filipinos. Filipinos are buying more of it because it is good value for money.

    Pinoys are not that patriotic.

    ^

    * TS; added incentive in buying the Lancer EX, you will not only buy a very good product, you will be somehow patriotic.

    *ghosthunter Yes, I agree that no one would mistake it for a taxi. I don't know, maybe my wife just flat out hates it. lol. Well, this will be the very first car we'll buy as a couple so I can't really ignore what she likes and dislikes.

    *scharnhorst Thanks for the input on the Mazda2. We're considering getting the sedan rather than the Mazda2 sport.

    *myk384 That's what I told my wife. lol Oh, and I never knew that the new Lancers are locally made. I thought they didin't allow local factories to sell cars here because they're all supposedly for export. Something about the tariff and costs of production. Anyway, that's a different discussion.

    Thanks for all the comments. Well, April is a few days away so we'll go wait for the elantra if it does come out then. If not, We're seriously eyeing the Ford Fiesta Sport. Unless that SA from Mazda throws us a bigger discount on the Mazda3.

    Saw this add in a popular, local buy and sell site that the Ford Fiesta now comes with the Diesel variant. Been trying to call the SA I talked to at Ford but he has yet to answer or even reply to my text message. Do you guys know any news on this?

    *tidus1203 Thought as much. Probably some SA doing a copy and paste without reading what he/she is actually copying.

    *battlestar I had the pleasure of riding a benz taxi when i was at Singapore. :D
