    AFAIK, the old type (black txt w/ yellow background) and Rizal plates doesn't distinguish a PUV plate if its a rental or not. Yung Rizal-type PUV plates is mga bagong franchise yun while the others, kahit bagong taxi or bus, same franchise pa din sila kaya lumang type of plates. Saka alam ko tina-transfer din yung ibang franchise. This what I know lang.

    I find it pure b---s--t as why civics couldnt be used as taxis...
    hell in other countries we can see toyota coronas or evern mercs being used as taxis...
    i guess it just shows that how filipinos are easily persuaded by such marketing craps...we are being blinded by a pseudo prestige feeling when driving a honda, no offense to honda fan/rice boys but a honda no matter what kinda honda it is ; accord or civic in this manner is just a regular japanese sedan
    after buying it they shouldnt dictate us on what we want or could do to the vehicle...hell you can even convert it to a hearse if you like and they couldnt do **** about it after all its your car you bought it with your hard earned money so be it...do what you please
    the contract itself is a joke....service and warranty could be void if used as a puv ...plain b.s...t it is the consumer who has the power.
    buy and be dictated to do with your property?

    i agree on this. walang ganung power ang consumer dito sa pinas.

    the consumer who has the power. buy and be dictated to do with your property

    In my own opinion,kaya sinasabi nila na di pwede gawin taxi ang honda eh baka di makapagbayad ng tama ang Honda cars sa LTFRB.Not like Toyota di ba...ang price at looks ng toyota at honda cars ay di naman magkalayo,pati ang resale value ay halos parehas lang.Baka Kulang sa lagay ang honda kaya sinasabi na lang na di pwede at ang reason na lang nila ay masisira ang credibility ng honda cars..
    just my opinion..peace..

    The agreement you sign with Honda that you cannot use the vehicle you purchased from them as a taxi is NON-BINDING. Kahit sinong law student alam yan. It's plainly a marketing ploy, to showcase their supposed "prestigious" stature.

    Kaya ayaw ng mga taxi operator yung Civic kasi masyadong mahal ang maintenance compared to Corollas or Sentras. I was a Credit Invesitgator before, at ang dami ko nang na-interview na taxi operator. Yun ang lagi nilang sinasabi. Pure & simple.

    Question, is Honda afraid to let the people know of their build quality?

    I have seen honda's being bumped by bikes and the honda's bumper falls of very quickly. And I have noticed that their doors misalign very quickly.

    Is this the reason why honda doesn't want to let the people us it as a taxi?

    No offense meant to Honda owners, I love honda's and infact the EK9 is my dream car.
