Gandang araw po sa lahat. While it is true that we are not at par with our neighboring countries when it comes to building our own engine, we still have some skills and the capabilities to do some parts of car building ourselves -yun nga lang most of it the bodywork.

My idea of designing a pinoy uv would have it start by analyzing the economics of the project first. Di ba the main reason why the design of the puj has gone unchanged for decades (malapit na maging century :D ) is because of the way they try to maximize the sheets? Then it is here that economists and designers should sit down together (preferably over a beer or two) and discuss feasibility of design.

Only when a feasible balance on paper has been achieved should the actual work progress, that way we wouldn't be wasting a lot of funds.

0.02 worth (or less maybe).
