Thanks for all the replies...

Yes may mga nakita nga akong Focus, 3, Lancer, Altis and Civic kaso younger is better sana...

At the end of the day, bakal pa din yan and nadadagdagan kalawang/lumalambot every year... 2010-2011 models are already 7-8 years old, by the time she finishes college, more than 10 years old na.

Ayoko sana ng repossessed car... Based on experience, medyo hassle yung registration. Plus since as-is basis sya, ang daming sakit na lumalabas sa first few months (in reality, na-repossess yung sasakyan kasi nabitin sa monthly fees yung original owner, di na ako aasa sa maintenance)
