sa budget mo makakakuha ka na ng mga "fresh" na 99-00 civics. tipid sa gas mga yun... i should know, i own 3, hehehe.

wala pa ako nakikita na jazz na bumaba sa 300k. even the early models.

yung nakita mo na city... bad sign yung panget na paint. ibig sabihin neglected to the max yun, siguro binuhay lang ulit matapos na ma-stock sa labas ng matagal, or ginagawang utility car. wag mo kunin. kapitbahay namin for 6 years naka 1st gen CRV nakapark lang sa labas umulan umaraw, ang ganda pa ng paint, mas nauna pa namuti yung black bumpers nya kesa sa green factory paint nya.

merong mga corolla altis na binebenta ng 350-400.

meron ding mga nissan cefiro na late model binebenta for as little as 300k nego pa. medyo malakas lang sa gas, pero pag bumili ka ng laspag na compact car ganun din kumain sa gas, mahirap patinuin, so mag cefiro/accord ka na lang. at least you get lots of space and power, at yung fuel nacconsume talaga to drive the car and not evaporating lang ng walang latoy latoy.

I would advise against the Cefiro/Accord simply because parts will be expensive. That is something important to consider if the cost of ownership & operating costs are important.
