1st choice: Mirage
2nd choice: Celerio
3rd choice: i10

But if you're willing to spend a little more, why not go for the Accent HB crdi manual? It's diesel, manual and pogi

Thanks sir! YES! I really love the Accent HB. The first time I saw it I cannot believe it's an Accent. But the Accent HB is too expensive. I think it's around 890k php which is almost 300k more than the vehicles that I mentioned which are around 500k-600k only

If I were to order a Mirage now, what is the average number of days before it will be delivered? Also, does the GLS MT come with all the body kits (spoiler, front chins, side skirts, rear extensions) and chrome trims? or are those just options? If they're options, around how much would these cost? thanks a lot!

The manual is 768K but since you have a budget, sige wag na hehe!

If you like the Spark, the new model will arrive (or baka meron na) soon. Maganda yung interior. Nabasa ko sa isang yahoo news article that's in the top 10 inter terms of interior design hehe!

and Mirage has really good Safety Rating too

maporma ang Mirage and you only need to replace its shoes and youre good to go hehe.

Dunno if youre interested but i saw a 2nd Hand 2012 Suzuki Swift on Sulit at below 600k with casa records., so basically it still has the dealers 3 year warranty. and you can also check 2011 or 2012 2nd hand cars as long ba checked it thoroughly... kasi may mga good deals naman especially kung 1 yr old plang or something hehe.

ang hirap na kasi bumili ng 2nd hand ngayon eh. iba pa din talaga kapag brand new. walang problema sa maintenance. by experience kasi sakit ng ulo inabot ko nung bumili ako ng 2nd hand na GSR. although napaayos ko naman siya in tip-top condition, ang laki nga lang ng nagastos ko. Pero I'll try to look at the Swift. hehe thanks bro!

Oh yeah! I was able to convince my dad to buy the Mirage instead hehe. It wasn't easy. I even have to make a powerpoint presentation!

))

Now, I have to convince him to buy the GLS instead of the GLX. Is there any any reason for me not to buy the GLS version? Thanks!

Aside from the touchscreen and nicer seats, the GLS has:

-Integrated rear spoiler: Gives better aerodynamics, fuel economy (slight, though) GLX optional spoiler not as good.
-15" wheels with Bridgestone Potenza tires: Safer driving due to the stiffer sidewalls (less dangerous if a tire blows out, and more stable in emergency maneuvers). More grip, which means better braking.
-ABS: This plus better tires means the GLS stops from 100 km/h nearly ten meters shorter than the GLX. In a possible accident, that's a big bonus.
-Anti-roll bar. Better handling, less body roll. The GLS is still soft, but it drives better, overall.

We just bought a Mirage GLS CVT.

By far, no regrets. Feature packed and has a plethora of safety features not available at Picanto. (Picanto has no ABS/Dual Airbags)

We average 8-9km/l on a super traffic driving conditions

about 12-13km/l on moderate traffic

and goes to about 17km/l on light driving, no highway data yet. I expect for it to improve getting past 1000kms. (mine's at 700kms still)

Plus, I got auto AC, push start/stop keyless operation, foglight, rear spoiler, a very accurate satnav, tv/dvd/usb headunit, 5 headrest and 5 3-point ELR seatbelts and 15" alloys shodded with 55 series tires.

Mirage just spelled value.

What do you mean by nicer seats? The two variants have different seats?

and the optional spoiler is different from the stock spoiler of the GLS?
