    jed,
    wala nang SIR (EK)na brand new
    CIVIC RS yata yung sports version ng (ES)CIVIC

    if second hand, i suggest get the mid sizers
    Accord, corona, going 140kph hindi mo pa ramdam ang rattle
    unlike sa 1.6 , nakupo!!!

    kung brand new, ALTIS (bear in mind that the writer doesnt know the current prcing scheme) Toyota is synonymous with realibility.

    LYNX- bang for the buck! suck at resale

    CIVIC-sleek, powerful, parts are expensive

    OPTRA-ganda ng likod, good if your a speed demon kasi
    kita nila lagi ang tail end bwahahaha

    hmmm 700k budget,
    SAFARI PATROL, pang pamilya na pang off road pa!
    bias talaga ako he..he

    With your budget of 500~700k Pesos, these are your choices kung brand new:

    Hatchback
    Chevrolet Aveo (545~585k)
    Hyundai Matrix (625~680k)

    Sedan
    Chevrolet Optra (635~675k)
    Ford Lynx (535~765k)
    Toyota Vios (528~628k)
    Honda City (499~619k)

    If you want larger cars, look for a second-hand.

    As Sir Kimpoy said, I would go for Accord or Corona (kung 2nd hand).

    Lancer's price is going head to head with CITY and VIOS.

    With a lancer you wont feel that "smal car" feeling.

    Ayos!
    I will still go for brandnew anytime!

    Matrix ang type ko.
    Ive seen a red one with 5 spoke aftermarket wheels and a body kit. Bigla naging crush ko. Very smart looking car. Maluwag a sa loob.

    Pag japanese naman. Id pick the City over the Vios bec its roomier and has a better dashboard. Super sikip ang rear seats ng vios. Naalala ko ang gemini namin dati.

    how 'bout mga 80's+ na benz? AFAIK nasa 500-600 presyo ng mga ito depende sa modelo...mura na rin yata mga parts nito...punta kayo sa AutoHann (sp?) sa President's Ave. sa BF Paranaque...

    kung SiR mahirap makahanap ng hindi laspag...price range 450k ('88-'89) to 500-550k ('89-'00)...tingnan nyo kaagad kung may sticker pa sa hood...kapag wala na malamang nabangga na iyon at niretoke na...piliin nyo yun owned by elders at di ginagamit ng mga binata ....mas maganda kung bonestock... happy hunting

    of all the cars mentioned, the used accord gets my vote. although since you say it's a family car, an suv like the pajero would prove very useful, if your family is a big one (or if the family members are big, like mine ;) )

    If you are looking for a family car which your mom can drive, go for the Lancer MX dahil CVT ang tranny nya. Matipid sa gas na automatic.

    Maganda din ang loob ng Sentra kaso nga lang, masikip sa likod dahil mataba ang mga upuan. Remember, you spend most of your time inside the car. Kaya, kung Vios ang kunin mo, eh para kang nasa loob ng Tamaraw nyan.

    Okay din ang Altis dahil tahimik sa loob at reliable and durable nga ang mga Corolla.

    However, the best way for you to decide is to actually go to the showroom, sit in the car to get the feel and ask for a test drive.

    just wait a little longer, marami ata lalabas next yr e. but if value for money ang habol mo, the optra would fit that bill nicely otherwise if your a sporty kind of guy civic or vios would suit you more.
