    This is a good suggestion. However, he may not​ like a diesel variant. Unless there's a gasoline variant, which I am not aware. The one that I've used is TDI and quite good for me. Maintenance is every 15,000 km so it is somehow easy on the pocket​ and the price range is within the budget.

    Ground clearance is good enough to bring it anywhere around the provinces. In terms of performance, I was able to reach 180 kph from 120 kph in a few seconds. Another thing, I can't confirm if the Jetta right now is the same with Golf that has a separate tank for it's fuel line. One more, I don't know about DPF if this car is mainly used in the city.

    Note: I mentioned speed that are beyond the limit. This does not mean that I advocate for this kind of act and neither do I encourage anyone to go beyond the speed mandated by our government. I am just pointing out that the car is fun to drive despite being a diesel engine.

The Accord 3.5L V6 is a totally different animal which is about as quick as a Lexus IS350 (less than 6 seconds from 0-100kmh). The new Accord 2.0T is about as quick as the older 3.5L V6 but the 3.5L V6 has a higher top speed (more power).
    I didn't know that there are two variants of Accord. In that case, they should be about the same except for that V6.

    And Mazda just released a 2.5 turbo gas for Mazda 6. [emoji16]

    The new base model Accord 1.5T is better in terms of performance against the older 2.4L.

    I think i will settle with WRX CVT,because it's fast enough, practical, handles well and has a lot of aftermarket option.
