    Mga tsikoters! Would like to know your opinion sana. I have a Rav4 03 M/T.So far ok naman sya,lalo na sa fuel consumption. Nung una i thought malakas sya sa gas,hindi pala. Giving me 9-10km/lit pag city driving.
    Naisip ko lang magpalit,wala naman matinding reason. Maybe sawain lang talaga ako.

    Choices are Honda civic FD M/T and Ford Focus GAS. Yun kasi yung medyo kasing presyo ng rav4 ko. Which of the 2 pipiliin nyo? Please site naman kayo ng mga advantages and disadvantages ng both cars,lets say sa ride,comfort,etc... importante sakin FC and power. Space hindi gaano...

    Or,kung may ibang auto pa kayo na masusuggest bukod sa 2,feel free to share please.

    Sana matulungan nyo ako mag decide... Thanks!

    Honda civic FD M/T, although right now i think you still have a winner in the rav4. and you don't have to spend.

    If you're happy with your RAV4 then don't swap. Mas versatile ang RAV4 then the two compacts.

    yup, just stick to it if you don't have any problems with your current car. baka ma-disappoint ka lang if you change cars then end up not being satisfied with it. sayang lang...

    amazed lang talaga ako sa dashboard ng civic. Sa focus naman,i think yun yung pinaka powerfull sa 3. Ok din naman yung rav ko,baka lang siguro hindi ko pa naseset upan masyado. Balak ko sana lagyan ng 18's,kaso eto nga napapaisip ako mag palit... May idea kayo san ako makakabili ng fender flares nung rav ko?4x2 lang kasi kaya wala syang fender flares na kasama nung binili ko yun... Thanks sa mga nag share ng comments.

    Stick with your rav. Spend your money for its maintenance.

    The civic goes 7-8km/l pure city.

    10 - 11km/l mixed city and highway driving.

    I say stick with your RAV4, I find the Civic FD really ugly.

    Focus.

    Wait, will you be buying brand new?

    Still, for me i'll go with the Focus no matter what civic you put it up against.

    You mentioned "porma", the focus will give you that for sure and more so because it isn't as common as the civic. If you have a common car, you won't stand out, and you're "porma" rating won't be as high because every other joe has a civic.

    Correct,problem lang sa civic is very common.Halos san ka tumingin may makikita kang civic. 2nd hand lang.Kasi at least mga 30-60k lang cguro iaadd ko. Isa pang naiisip ko,mukhang mas mauuna pang bumaba yung price ng 2006 civic compare with my 2003 rav4?

    As long as okay na okay pa yung RAV4 mo, I suggest you stick with it na lang. It gives good fuel economy (as per your experience), drives like a car, and more flexible and versatile. Sa'n ka pa? Hahaha...

    sir i suggest you stick with your RAV..

    but if you're really considering to change vehicles I suggest you Go with the Civic, Scrap the idea about the ford(no offence meant), ford is just a ford(just my idea) and civic will always be civic, just look at how many ford owners are selling their cars at such a young age considering that it hasn't gained much popularity, this just means low levels of satisfaction, for the civic, well you just can't deny that it sells like hotcakes this days so there is a high tendency for the owners to just have enough of them, and some of them end up changing vehicles to besides even from the start of production here in the philippines the ford looks a decade old compared to the civics liberalize style.

    pls. excuse my blunt words not a ford hater just cant focus my eyes on the focus.

    what if il push for the focus turbo diesel? kahit yung 07 model lang,is it worth it if i have the money? Yung tipong,masisiyahan ba talaga ako sa pag shift ko ng car? Mga magkano kaya price ng focus 07 tdci? If porma,tingin ko naman parehong maporma yung rav4 and focus.Adv siguro nung rav4 is pag sa baha. Sa FC,panalo yata yung focus,i heard powerfull na tipid pa sa gas? How about sa maintenance....? Any idea guys?

    Anong variant po sir? Kung GT or GTA. Benta mo na rav4 mo then maglancer ka na :hysterical:

    Pag hinde, mag focus ka na lang. Mahal yung GLX, GLS sa lancer ex lineup eh.

    Sir why dont you try the Pearl White Toyota Altis V? It looks like a mini camry.

    if you're going to get the old gen focus tdci (diesel), then go for it! ok talaga ang diesel especially nowadays na biglang nagmahal ang presyo ng gasoline.

    go for the focus tdci (diesel)!

Rav4,Civic FD or Focus Hatch?
