    Get an Elantra na lang.

    But out of the 3, I would favor the new rio, bago kasi eh. No local reviews yet, though, IIRC.

    Galing naman ng company mo, kuha ka muna ng review sa Rio kasi bago pa sya sa market.

    I don't like the automatic in either the Swift or the Fiesta, but the Swift's is better.

    The Swift drives and rides better than the Fiesta. It feels like a higher quality product with a better interior. Both are kind of tight on leg-room compared to the Honda Jazz, and the Swift's trunk is tiny, but both are better to drive than the Honda.

    No word on the Rio yet, but I doubt it'll be as good to drive as the other two. It's bound to have a good interior and lots of space, though.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    With Feminine touch, I vote for Swift.
    For masculinity including performance, I say yes to Fiesta.
    Rio, I dont like the brand!

    Stretch your abono a bit and get a Lancer EX GT-A.

    If you're settled on the three, then i'd say Fiesta or Swift.

    Swift 1.4 AT 779k
    Fiesta S 1.6 AT 826k
    Rio EX 1.4 AT 838k

    Parang good deal yung Fiesta S pero honestly I am not impressed on how it looks. Di ako masyado impressed sa Kinetic Design ni Ford.

    Get the ford fous svp 1.8hatch instead. Ford is giving at least 30k discount for ford focus. Medyo malakas sa gas to the other 3 you mentioned butou are getting free gas anyway. The svp model comes with complete wrap around skirts and it is higher in category in any of the 3 you mentioned.

    P798k for 1.6MT. The rims are 16", IIRC. It's still better than a subcompact, and has better mileage, too.

    798k for 1.6 MT and 868k I believe for the 1.6 AT. For the 1.6 models the rims are actually 15', tyres are 195/65 R15. and yeah I agree ang liit nga for such a nice looking car,haha!

    Who cares about rims? It's the most metal you can get for the money... and the fastest metal for the money, since the only 1.5 - 1.6 liter subcompact that comes with a manual is the Mazda2, and that one is down on power compared to everything else.

    But it is much difficult if you buy a car then later you realize that the other option is much worthy!

    If you are rich, go ahead pick what you want in an instant. But if you want to value your money, my friendly advice is "research further"!

    798k 1.6M m/T sulit na sulit tsaka ano naman kung maliit yung rims keya nga madaming shop na nagbebenta ng aftermarket rims o di kaya salpakan mo ng rims ng Sonata Premium kung kasya.... Paki correct na lang kung mali yung mga opinion ko
