[Title] => Proud to be grown-up: 2007 Toyota Vios
[Summary] => We all went through that phase, that period in our lives when it was time to grow up and start earning a living, to learn the vagaries of the daily commute, to deal with office politics, and to get used to wearing work clothes day in and day out and how to mix and match so we wouldn’t get tired of our look. Well, maybe some of us did. In much the same manner, the Toyota Vios, the most affordable sedan in the Philippine lineup, has just gone through an important phase in its life.

[Title] => A quick look at the Isuzu Alterra – The couch potato’s SUV
[Summary] => I’ve always had a soft spot for Isuzu’s Alterra, particularly the range-topping 5.1 Surround Sound-equipped, DVD-playing model. Few vehicles can match its sheer road-gobbling ability, what with its comfy (for a ladder-frame SUV) ride, torquey yet economical 3.0-liter CRDi engine, spacious 7-seat cabin, and that superb subwoofer-equipped dual headrest-mounted 7-inch LCD monitor 11-speaker (!) AV entertainment system.

[Title] => A balance of virtues
[Summary] =>
The Honda Accord has always been a very nice car. Whether you live in this country, in Europe, in Japan, or the US of A, its always been held in high regard. High enough, in fact, to net its fair share of accolades and awards from the local and international media over the years while, of course, nicely contributing to Hondas bottom line. A couple of months ago, Honda Cars Philippines unveiled the latest "freshening" of its executive sedan, and wed say its two steps forward and one tiny step backward.

[Title] => More power, but not more style: Honda CR-V 2.4
[Summary] => Bury the throttle into the floor of the 2005 CR-V and two things happen: it surges forward with the urgency of the late, great Civic SiR; and the bar-type, digital fuel-economy meter dips alarmingly to the left, reading roughly 2 kilometers per liter. You need to do this sort of thing to tell the old from the new; park it beside a 2004 CR-V and youd be hard-pressed to tell the difference. Visually, the bumpers, the lamps, and the wheels are different.

[Title] => Testing Toyotas Innova G M/T
[Summary] => I approached my test of Toyotas new Innova with high expectations. By the time I got my hands on a test unit, three months have passed since the Innovas launch and it has absolutely dominated the sales charts.
Its easy to see why: sleek styling thats light years away from its Revo predecessor, a choice of two utterly state-of-the-art engines, and a spacious and well-appointed cabin that wouldnt be out of place in the much more expensive (P1.7million) Toyota Previa minivan.

[Title] => Driving the new Honda Civic 2.0 i-VTEC
[Summary] => To those who miss the late, great Civic SiR, the new Honda Civic 2.0 i-VTEC may be the answer to their prayers for a new high-powered Honda pocket rocket. For here is yet another Civic with more muscle than any of its rivals in the small sedan class. Heck, you can even go to the medium-sized sedan category with their 2.0-liter engines and this newest Civic model, with its better power-to-weight ratio, will still eat them for breakfast.
