Ironically Lexus PH doesnt do the same shenanigans as TMPC for their hot selling cars

TMPC is probably not handling the sales for Lexus here in PH.
Parang nasa TMPC lang talaga tong gumagawa ng mga kalokohang sales tactics.

From TMPC's website:

"Toyota Motor Philippines Corporation (TMP) is the largest automotive company in the country, with the widest vehicle line-up of 23* Toyota models (including the latest addition, the Yaris Cross and Zenix) and 12* Lexus Models. It has 74* dealers nationwide, including Lexus Manila, Inc., for its sales distribution and service centers."

if i have to guess,
lexus buyers have the moolah and do not want to be swept this way and that.
"gimme what i want, or i take my business elsewhere. and i'll tell my friends just what kind of dealer you are."
lexus phils sold 1843 units in 2023.

I have the same assumption. You don't want to piss off buyers of Lexus, they occupy the upper echelon of society and you don't want their ire.

Buyers of Toyotas can very well do the same thing.

many of the toyota buyers "prefer" installment. and one disgruntled costumer won't probably have the herd influence over other similar buyers.
but think of the damage one disgruntled captain of industry can do, while relaxing with his friends in a game of golf.

With social media? A Toyota buyer would have the same voice if not louder.

what're they saying?
"i can't buy cash, and neither can you!"
and because toyota has loads of costumers, they plain do not care.

but for lexus,
with less than 2000 cars sold last year, with good profit per car sold and serviced, "lexus phils don't want to find out, what the disgruntled potential lexus costumer might do."

If buyers vote with their wallets, they will listen. We've seen that in the past. They are not the only game in town.

matagal kunang sinasabi yan.
alas! there's not enough potential costumers voting with their wallets, to make a significant dent in toyota's sales charts.
"i have 100 cars to sell, and i have 101 costumers willing to buy the car on installment."

sa lexus costumer... with less than 2000 cars sold last year, i imagine, every car sold, cash or installment, is a godsend.

subukan mo yan sa lexus costumer, kung hindi yan tumayo sa negotiation table at mag walk out.

Like I said, we put up with it; but we don't have to.

But a lot pinoys have been usually loyal and blind to the 'T' badge, to the point that some would even kneel upon hearing or seeing it. Sometimes the notion becomes repetitive and boring already imo. Other than that, not all the time but here in the ph one could still associate toyota with the word 'generic' when it comes to cars regardless of what people may think about their reliability.

Yes, that's part of the problem.

But market data says otherwise. Assumption mo lang yan but majority of Filipinos do not share your views and that's a fact.

[Motortrend]

Fact? Yet, no basis is cited.

[dr. d]

i wonder,
how many toyota buyers pay cold cash, and how many pay installment?
and of those who pay installment, how many choose so, even as they can easily afford paying cash?
and how many potential costumers walk away, when advised that their car is only available if they buy installment?
personally, i have walked away when i was advised that i had to pay installment to get my car of choice, faster.

Same. At punta sa isa pang Toyota dealer na maayos kausap. Noong hot item ang Raize, ganyan ang SOP ni Quezon Ave. at ni North EDSA. Buti may nag post sa Tsikot tungkol sa Pasong Tamo.

Although sa NCR suwerte at maraming dealers. Ibang usapan sa probinsiya.

What happens to buyers who availed their units via in-house but within up to 1 or 2 years, cannot pay them anymore? Don't they become repo units under toyota's tsure dealers?

Unfortunately, I think that is the case.
