Resale value should not be an issue... or at least a BIG issue on the Mazda 3. It's going to be backed by a Ford Group warranty that should at least see it through the next decade. I'm thinking that the WORST case scenario is devaluation in the Mitsubishi range... hopefully NOT in the Nissan range.

And BTW, maganda ngang choice ang Hyundai Tuscani, good looks, decent (decent lang, ha...) power... but if you're looking for sporty cars, a Lynx RS or a Honda 2.0 are better choices... and faster. :D
