    yung FD nalang sir, mas maporma para sa brother niyo. tsaka imho over priced ang city kaya kung bnew ang gusto niyong bilin might as well check the other cars in the sub-compact category.

    just my 2 cents!

    First car?

    Go with the second hand FD. Brand new pag marunong na mag-alaga, also City medyo overpriced for me.

    Hoy Migelita! :gayfight: Ano nakapili ka na ng Pick-up? Kamusta na?

    BTT: Civic FD na. Basta hindi flooded. Parang ang mura sa 550K eh. Unless 1.8V M/T yan.

    Sa thread ng mga civic FD owners parang 8-9 kms/ltr ata yung FC sa city nt sure sa hway. Check mo na rin for sure. Mas ok FD vs city based on my experience.

    if you have the means, nothing beats a brand new car... may factory warranty, may new carsmell, peace of mind and the fact na ikaw ang una gagamit ng auto. so ideally walang hidden defects... unlike kapag second hand, unless kilala mo previous owner, hindi mo alam ang history ng auto.

    pero first hand, walang circumstances involved, civic fd rin ako.

    Civic FD ako. Though I'd suggest you look for a newer unit with a price that is nearer to that of the City 1.3S.

    Here are some 2009 and 2010 units: http://www.sulit.com.ph/index.php/vi...nda+Civic+1+8S
