Congrats Mz2 Skyactiv owners!! Welcome to Kodo!! 😊😊😊

I have yet to see one on the road. Just in case I see one, siguro po-pot-pot-an ko. Hehe. Para kasing magpuputo yung sa Mz3 eh. 😁😁😁

Kumusta na ang mga m2 owners? Torn pa din ako between M2 and City. Puro City ang recommended ng mga friends ko. As per driving experience, ok both (natest drive ko na pareho kahapon).

Mahilig ako sa underdog at lefthand choices kaya pinili ko Mazda. Besides para kumita naman ang competition. Mz3 sana pero sobrang tagal waiting list. Pinagpilian ko Altis, Mobilio, Civic at Elantra. Elantra dropped out early kasi may Kia Sorento na kami and ayoko ng 2 kotse galing sa iisang company, also luma na ang design. Civic mukhang luma na rin, Mobilio naman maliit makina at ang haba rin ng waitlist. Altis would have been the aafest choice pero luma na hitsura, lumang technolog pa underneath (drumbrakes pa rin?!).

Altis would have been the aafest choice pero luma na hitsura, lumang technolog pa underneath (drumbrakes pa rin?!).

I've driven many compact cars with rear disc brakes and the Altis G (with drums) outbrakes most of them. I've driven the car downhill through mountain roads with no brake fade (usual complaint with drums). Brake balance is also good.

I don't understand what "lumang technology" you're referring to underneath as well. Despite sharing the same suspension setup as the 10th gen Altis, the 11th gen drives much better. It isn't as prone to understeer because of significantly reduced body roll. Steering is still numb though.

And this is hard driving we're talking about, which 99% of people don't do. In normal day-to-day driving, the Altis shines with its comfortable ride, humongous space, and great NVH.

If there was anything that I could objectively fault with the Altis vs the Mazda 3, its interior build quality is nowhere as premium as the latter's. Looks are completely subjective but I think the Mz3 also looks better than the Altis inside and out (as long as you switch to OEM 18s right away cuz the stock 16s on the 3 are hideous).

Congratulations on the Mz2 though. Haven't flogged one but I'm willing to bet it's gonna be more fun to throw around corners than any car in its class. That alone ranks very high in my list of wants in a car. I personally considered it before, but even if I'm not picky with space, the cramped interior (Wigo levels) is a major turnoff, and I really have an irrational dislike for the digital tachometer. But again, different strokes for different folks, and I could understand why you'd pick the Mazda over other cars in its price range.

[Yatta]

What I meant was for roughly the same price I could get much more with the Mazda than the one offered by Toyota. I'm sure the Altis is good and to its credit reliable. But therein lies the problem with it for me. It just doesn't stand out. Its like Toyota stayed with the concept "not broken anyway, lets not fix it".
