Mazda2 [MERGED]

[marg]

Mazda2 800T, CHEAP CLACKiTY Hard Plastic inside.

Econo-car at a high CBU price. Better get a Honda City.

NOT WORTH IT.

The older Mazda 2 looks nicer than the current model. I'm not a follower of the new big grin Mazda look. The older CX-9, CX-7 looks nicer also compared with their current versions with the so called big grin. I dont like also the big grin of the upcoming 2010 Mazda 3.

By the way, I hope Mazda Phils. will consider giving huge discounts later for the Mazda 2 top of the line variant(at 795k) and for the soon to be launched lower variants for hatchback models as well as 4 door models.
IMHO, one of the key strengh of Mazda is value for money. Big discounts for cars that are really fun to drive.

They should also consider improving the plasticky looks of the interiors of the Mazda 2.

I'm curious with the question "which of the two, Mazda 2 and Jazz has the edge in fun to drive factor"?

Ayos lang yan. I'm not a fan of the big grin either, but it's much better in person than in pictures.

^ Exactly. Yung Mazda2 sa picture na pinost ni sir jozef ang pangit. Pero nung nakikita ko yung mazda2 na green din nakapark sa labas ng showroom ng Mazda GH ang ganda.

Picture lang kasi yan, better if you see it in person.

Meh mas mahal parin ang Honda City at Jazz..To think na CBU galing Thailand to at di nagbibigay nang discount ang Honda dealers..

Marami pang variants ng Mazda2 ang lalabas including yung Sedan variant.

Mazda 2 is a nice car...just nice...

compared to it's cousin the new ford Fiesta, I think I'd prefer that over the Mazda 2....since the ford Fiesta will be coming over here real soon...

Here's a review by Top Gear...funny review haha

O.T.

Mura talaga Mazda cars compared sa Honda not because inferior to(maybe sa engine tech. pwede pa). I think Honda cars are more expensive because of huge amount of capital spent in engine technology.

But wait, watch-out for Mazda's next generation SKY engines which is due on 2011. These engines are more fuel efficient. I hope hindi masyado mag-increase ng price pag ganito na engine ang gamit.

Dati nung naghahanap ako ng kotse para bilhin tiningnan ko yung possible candidates within my budget. Vios, yaw ko kasi ginagawang taxi. Lancer, parang masyadong luma ang design. City, ganda sana ng kaha pero manipis at pangit ng interior. Mazda, the best sa lahat ng interiors. Kahit medyo mahal masaya naman ako na yun ang minamaneho ko ngayon. Kaya sa tingin ko, may karapatan syang magmahal. hehehe

driving one for the weekend. a small birthday gift by a good friend close to mazda ph.

versus my 2007 a/t honda jazz, its around 5-6x better.

exterior is nice. driving a white one. overall exterior package is sporty (i like)
interior used good materials (except sa sidings, should have been upholstered. although mura lang naman sa suking upholstery shop)
nice comfortable seats. slightly small for big rear ends
good hatak, uses a traditional 4 speed a/t. love the engine growl at mid-high rpm not like the buzzing of my jazz.
space: smaller. definitely smaller than my jazz. rear seats fold but not flat.
ride is more comfortable than my lowered jazz and stock 08 city.
some suspension clunks (but might be from high tire pressure)
decent sounding radio
fuel consumption seems to be at 10+ km/l. will have to confirm this pa.

conclusion: 2007 honda jazz for sale. any takers?

wow, seems like a very convincing test drive. haha. BTW, ganun na din ba ang test drive ngayon ng Mazda dealerships sa Pinas...puede mong iuwi yung car? congrats, do let us know when u got ur own Mazda2.....
