Last year I was on the market for a Verita, but I changed my mind when the only Verita I found costed 450 grand (non-negotiable). I really fell in love with this car. I still like it a lot. I dig its classic lines, its subtle elegance, and its interiors! I actually like the eggplant-colored variety. If my parents had extra money I would get a Verita (for city driving). I can't really say I'm not happy with my zoom-zoom (which I hope will arrive soon), but this is the first car I'll get once I get a job (I wish). Good for you, jingmag!

zoomzoomlady,,,you not happy with a Mazda???

I didn't say that. Mazda 3 first, Verita second. I need a bigger car, and that particular Verita was expensive.

The Verita's interior is really a classic and very nice to look at, but I don't find the steering wheel that comfortable and grippy. Performance is ok for a small car with a small engine, and the ride was pretty fine.

One issue of this car though is safety. If I have my facts straight, this is the reason why this never made the US. There are no airbags in the local version as well. The price for a 2nd-hand model is the same as a 99-00 Civic VTi, so it's also not really a practical buy.
