Ano sa palagay ninyo? Mas mahal ata ng konti Vios kaysa Yaris. I also heard meron daw discount ang Yaris right now?? As much as P50K daw?? I can't confirm this, can anyone confirm it?

By the way the car is for a friend who is heeding an advice from me? He is a young professional budget strictly P750K kasi he wants to pay cash and does not want to go into financing...

He is gunning for the 1.5 variants of the Vios and the Yaris which is only 1.5L available...

Eto pampagulo what if we toss in the 1.3L variants of both the City and the Jazz would you guys still go for the 1.5L 4 bangers of Toyota or Honda na?

The discount on the Yaris is around Php 70K, but I think that's for the M/T.

I wouldn't go for any Honda bec. the engine is allegedly insufficient in the torque dept. (motioncars, paultan.org, vtec.net, bigbigcars, users, etc, reviews). Yes, it has 120 HP (same as a Civic EG 1.6 li, almost 20 yrs ago) but it must be revved to 6,600 rpm to extract that power! Since these vehicles are mostly driven in traffic prone city streets, I think having sufficient torque is imp't.
