    ... the new focus was launched.

    now i'm torn. :help2:

    1.5 a/t jazz or 1.8 focus trend a/t hatch?

    i know they are different categories (compact vs sedan) but they're basically at the same price range kasi.....

    driving comfort, handling, fuel efficiency, interiors and reliability are the things i'm looking for. btw, i'm just a newbie driver.

    help pls.....

    for me po:

    driving comfort - focus
    handling - focus
    fuel efficiency - jazz
    interiors - focus
    reliability - tie

    i never even know na magka price range ang jazz sa focus, kala ko kasi nasa 9xx+ ang focus
    i personally love both cars pero kung im onto style & power, i'd go for the focus. pero kung i'm onto fuel efficiency at daily use transpo, i'd pick up the jazz

    Agree! For that price, I'd get an Altis, Civic, Focus, or Mazda 3.

    kung 1.5 Jazz kaunti na lang dagdag pwede ng mag Civic, but for economy and mostly city driving the 1.3 Jazz A/T looks good for me... well for the Focus.. dream ko yung new TDCi Kinetic Dual-clutch semi-automatic

    tingin ko ha?

    cost wise: focus

    yun nga lang, talo ka sa FC tsaka resale (alam mo naman ang mindset ng pilipino sa honda). pero if you are buying a car with a specific budget and would want a bang for the buck approach to it, ok yung focus.

    maintenance wise, pareho lang din halos yan.
    kung second car, why not get a vios or a city? way freaking cheaper than the new jazz?

    IMO the 1.5 jazz is overpriced. if you are looking for fuel efficient car or for an everyday car, i believe the 1.3 will do. you will even save some money for accessories or you can use the extra money to fill up your tank.


    if im going to buy a focus, i will opt for the new TDCI. best of both worlds, power and efficiency.
