    Is there any difference kung bibili ka from a dealer sa Metro Manila kaysa sa province? Dami ko kasi nakikita na sa either Batangas, Pampanga or Cabanatuan pero dito ginagamit.

    yes... you can get an additional discount from the normal discounted price of the car. The discount is the amount usually spent on the delivery cost from the assembly plant to the province.

    What brand of car are we talking about? In our case, mas madali kausap ang Carworld in Pampanga kesa sa mga Mitsu dealers here in MM. Toyota Dagupan naman gives a bit more discount compared to MM Toyota dealers.

    Any brand for that matter. Hmmm. Probably the next time I'll buy, I need to check out provincial dealers as well. Paminisan, hassle rin dito sa MM.

    Mas marami freebies. Mas malaki discount.

    Tapos pag pina deliver mo yung unit, free ang gas

    One advantage is you can feel how the car drives on long distance kung ikaw mismo ang kukuha sa casa. I remember when my dad wanted to buy an Expedition noong 2000, ininsist ko talaga na sa Ford Pampanga bumili ng Expedition kasi alam ko na ako rin ang uutusan kumuha sa casa, sinadya ko yon para mahataw ko yung sasakyan sa NLEX going back to Manila

    sa province ang may discount kasi direct mo nang kukunin instead of delivering here in manila. just make sure na kung doon ka bibili, huwag ipa-register sa province ang sasakyan, dapat dito sa Manila para Manila plate at iwas hassle sa registration.

    *p_borj thanks for the information, mga bro yung additional na freebies & discounts magkano po yung pinapagusapan natin dito?

    and does this go for all Dealers (i.e. toyota, mitsubishi etc) pati na rin Honda's?

    Yung dealer na ang bahala kung magkano at gaano karami ang freebies na ibibigay sayo. Pero totoong mas maraming binibigay ang provincial dealers.

    question po:
    does that mean, the cars will come with non-metro manila plates? what when it's time to sell these cars? will the buyers have to bring them to the provinces so they can effect change of ownership?

    di ba dapat baliktad? To my understnding it would be cheaper to acquire a vehicle from a Manila based dealer than a provincial based dealer. Since usually mom and pop operation ang provincial dealer (or branches of ayala owned/borromeo owned dealerships based in Manila) which charge a larger overhead expenditure, and charging freight. Makes no sense IMHO. I often see Manila plates here in Iloilo, buyers rationale is it is cheaper to acquire from Manila (more discounts, no other charges, lesser interest rates).

    some dealers will ask you...

    i work in cavite but i live in manila

    agent asked me if i prefer to have provincial or manila registry.

    its really up to you most of the time they will base it on the address you gave
