for everything listed, its hard to beat the Ford Focus TDCi Sport.

its been on sale in different markets for a while now and there really hasnt been any major reliability issues especially for the diesels...

Personally Lancer EX GTA ako overall with the Ford a close second because of its frugal and torquey diesel. The Corolla is a distant third for me. Boring and old school automatic transmission but siguro ito yung Point A-B type of car. But di pa naman ako tatay so I choose the 2 sportier alternatives.

Is it safe to assume that 2 liter midsized cars are the new 1.6 of yesteryears? If so dito talga ang bakbakan sa bentahan ng mga auto makers..ooops Ot pero konektado pa naman kahit papano

Yep as the time goes cars get bigger and more expensive. Dati P500K can get you a Corolla in the mid 90's ngayon all you get for that is an i10 or bare bones Vios.

Engine - Focus TDCi > Civic > Lancer/Mazda/Subie/Corolla
tranny (automatic) - Focus TDCi > Mitsubishi Lancer EX GT-A > Civic (everything else is blech)
tranny (manual) - Civic > Lancer/Subaru > Focus TDCi
space - Civic > Lancer > Altis > Mazda3/Focus > Subaru
suspension (performance) - Focus TDCi / Subaru Impreza / Lancer > Civic > Mazda3 > Corolla
suspension (comfort) - Corolla > Focus / Impreza / Mazda3 > Lancer > Civic
looks - Lancer
ergonomics - They're all pretty good
pricing - They all cost the same, right? Want a bargain, though, Focus 2.0 Flexfuel.
fuel efficiency - Focus TDCi >>> Corolla > Civic > Mazda3 / Subie / Lancer
overall package - Lancer / Focus

Whats your pick? - Focus TDCi. Or, if I had to buy a gasser, either the Subaru (if I didn't care about rear legroom) 2.0R MT or the Lancer (if I did) EX GT MT.

Focus TDCi ako consumes diesel like a 1.1 engine performs like a sports car.
