HAIMA 2
Based on a Mazda, this Chinese hatch isn't feature scrimped (especially for the C Sport models) plus it gets an sequential transmission, the only Chinese brand to do locally. While the price is justifiable, reliability is a big question mark.
The Good: Feature packed
The Bad: Untested reliability, a legit Mazda 2 Speed isn't priced too far away.
Price Range: P549,000-P749,000
