    Hi i'm planning on buying a new car hopefully by 1st/2nd week of november, my choices are the Honda Jazz 1.5V a/t and Toyota Corolla 1.6E m/t.

    it will be used mostly in manila (taft) where i am studying, so my daily route is approximately 4kms everyday. And it will also be used in going back from manila to lipa, batangas where i live and vice versa every weekends. so what is the practical choice? i want a car that is spacious, so is Honda Jazz spacious as a sub-compact or is it spacious even when compared to the compacts like the corolla?.

    which is better? any other suggestions? TIA

    Are you male or female?

    If you don't mind pedal pushing thru Metro Manila traffic, then get the Toyota. Otherwise, the Honda is your bet. Space wise, the Jazz is big, but IMHO, the Corolla would be bigger (it has a boot too)

    The "practical" choice in terms of spare parts availability and general maintenance, the Toyota has the edge. Overall, buy a car that was well maintained.

    Good luck!

    which is more stable in highway? let say at 160. Hindi po ba parang unstable ang jazz kapag nilalampasan ng mga suvs/bus knowing its a "small" car?

    stable at 160?? nakakatakot makasabay ng bus at 160kph... tsaka bawal yan up to 100 kph lang po tayo.... so wag mo na pangarapin mag patakbo ng 160 kph

    jazz have a lowered stance so i think its stable even on high speeds

    kung space din hanap mo dun ka na sa mga compact hatchback. whatever others say jazz is still subcompact and iba parin advantage ng compacts pag dating sa space (correct me if I'm wrong). but for this one, choose the Jazz. most guys like us would be bored with how the altis drives. I live in cainta and i study at ust, so pagdating sa baha medyo aware nako. just know which parts are safe to park para di ka kabahan pag malakas ang ulan habang may klase ka (which happened to me many times). pag jazz pa kinuha mo madali mong mappormahan sigurado, goodluck sir!

    male. medyo hindi pa po kasi ako sanay sa manual eh, pero i can drive manual naman but not as comfortable as i do in matic. regarding sa space ng corolla, hindi po ba sikip kapag 4 yung sakay sa likod? kasi malimit din po kaming lumabas labas, i heard that the jazz can accommodate 4 persons sa likod.

    IMHO mas ok ang altis more spacious,more comfortable for those long drives and a lot less cheaper to maintain than a Jazz. youll save a lot more pang date or gimmick mo .. my 2 cents!
