I think noong simula lang itong "bawal iTaxi" since yung 5th Gen was part of the People's Car initiative ng government.
(Kasama sa People's Car yung CD-5 and Charade)
Now na well established na ang Honda locally... wala na yung "contract" na bawal sya i-Taxi.
Although like all local car brands, mawawala warranty ng car kapag naka-for-hire (yellow plate) sya
i do not understand hondaphils.
what did they expect to accomplish, back then, when they suggested that their cars may not be used as taxis?
some manufacturers like their cars to be used as taxis. it transforms into sales and income for the company.
there was this rumor back then, that entaxicating the honda car would bring out into the open, the inherent flaws in honda cars...

When Ayala brought Honda locally in the early 90s, it was a marketing move to tell people that Honda is not meant to be used as taxis. Prior to that, almost any brand was used as taxis. They had to do something to make them different.
Well, their plan did work and it brought that premium mindset on the brand even though some of the early Civics (EG platform) had a terrible problem of rust building on its ceiling and the notorious sliding of their AT trannies (4AT).
Hahaha... I remember the first time I drive the 1.1L Civic EG - sobrang bigat ng steering... driving the Corolla was much better.
I must agree that Ayala's plan for Honda is doing wonders for them... Just look at the cars na lumabas for Taxi...
Kia Pride
Fiat Uno - may mga demo units pa ito noon sa LTO
Sentra LEC - we were even offered 4+1 back in the days
Daewoo Racer
Hyundai Stellar
Daihatsu Hi-Jet
Lancer (4th gen)
^All gone!
Isuzu Gemini is a different story since wala pang Aircon nung time nya.
