    So kung di lang talaga hatak habol mo sa diesel or utility mag gas ka na lang. Makakatipid pa sa purchase price ng kotse.

    Lalo na kung second hand older than 4-years big no no sa akin ang diesel. Opinion lang po.
    Korek!

    *GTi: Ganyan talaga kalakas sa crudo yung GRX. Pati Grand Starex VGT malakas din daw sa crudo (as compared to the HiAce Super Grandia). Kaso priceless yung power

    The Civic is also a good candidate based on features, but it is just a little over the budget at P 913k SRP, though we will check the discount when we go to the dealers.
    Lancer EX GLS it is. I tested the MX before (way back 2008) with 16" wheels, the handling was good. Pero mas maganda kung naka 18" same ng GT-A. Lakas pa ng engine. I like the growl pag high revs na.

    Yung FD kasi luma na. Malapit na yung kapalit. Wala pa SRS airbags yung 1.8V. Too bare, too base.

    Yung Lancer EX GLS naka dual airbags pa.

    But remember that the Honda Jazz is treading very close to the base-model Honda Civic. I'd include that in my choices. They're dime a dozen, but that speaks of their quality. Plus, you won't have a problem finding spare parts.
    +1, since you prefer brand new, 1st is the Lancer GLS, puwede ka naman maging matipid if you use your lef foot right. But once you want to have fun, then at least you can really do with that excellent engine. But if mas matimbang FC on a daily basis, get the Jazz for me.
    Fasten your seatbelt! Or else... Driven To Thrill!

    Hahaha. So far dun sa dalawang R-eVGT ok pa. 5,000 pesos parin ang average PMS cost.

    Pero dun sa 9 year old Trooper, nako. Clean this, clean that, replace this, replace that, sensors and modules malfunctioning.
