    Mga sirs, I plan to acquire a Mitsubishi Adventure thru bank financing, hopefully before 3rd quarter of this year.

    My question is, kung ang hanapin kong unit ay brand new but, later year model (i.e. 1-3 years).....marami bang available na ganito? at sa tingin nyu ba mas makakatipid ako sa pricing?

    usage : private/family use

    I find the adventure better than the revo. Pero I find the innova better than the adventure.

    An Innova will be a better option over the Adventure.

    auv ang adventure.

    mas maganda nga ang innova, pero 7-seater lang and almost no luggage space when all 7 seats are in use. pero may remedyo, lagyan mo roof rack for those times you have plenty of luggage. better engine also.

    adventure 10-seater pero super bagal. second slowest yan next to the crosswind. pero kung city driving ka lang naman ok na. sa hiway just stay on the slow lane (right outermost lane) to avoid being a hazard. also, old engine, umuusok yan. peyborit ng mga asbu kaya pag may operation sila e malayo ka pa lang pag nakita ka yari ka na. it's almost guaranteed it will fail the smoke belching test.

    you refer to "new old stock" ? i don't think the casa can provide one, because it is not logical for them to hold on to a unit and not sell it and make a profit out of it..
    but yes, you might score a "demo unit"... one that was used to demonstrate to students some aspects of.... repair!
    heh heh.
    god luck.

    AUV.. SUV.. CUV.. MPV.. kahit na ano pang bibi..
    who cares? you're buying the car, not the three-letter shiny borloloy.
    heh heh ulit.

    there is a probability that there are old model stocks sa casa, but the probability is small.... best you can do is to ask.
    however, pag 3 years na, sure ako wala nang ganyan sa casa.... best to go to dealers...

    Almost imposible magkaroon ng old stock ang adventure dahil di naman ito nagfacelift. Pag nagfacelift or new model ang isang sasakyan tsaka magkakaroon ng old stock na ayaw nang bilhin ng karamihan

    Agree that there is a very slim chance of finding very old stocks (1 year or longer) of a brand new model especially if the specific model is still selling significant number of units.

    Kindly correct me if I am mistaken:

    Don't remember where I read or learned this but although you might save on the purchase price, it might have long term implications on your ownership cost. First is the oil and other fluids, if these are left unchanged beyond its optimum life, it could be bad to your car. Another thing are the movable parts which should be moving and may have accumulated rust. Third is the paint, the old unit might have been stored under the sun. By the way this could also be bad to your interior especially the dashboard which may become brittle or deformed. Better also check the condition of the wheels/rubber as they may have been deformed.

    Oil and fluids, not typically a problem if you demand that they're flushed. Oil can collect water.

    Tires are an issue. They can get deformed if the car is parked with the tires underinflated.

    Rust, not usually... but rubber fittings and bushings will definitely suffer if the car is stocked and not driven. Also, interior trim... the glue holding on viny surfacing and "leatherette" or leather wraps on the steering wheel and door cards will deteriorate if the car is stored under the sun and never opened to air out. Dashboards don't become brittle that fast, but if there is leatherette or leather on the dash topper, it may start to peel.

    Typically, just a few months is okay... but if the car has been stocked for over a year, you run into all these minor problems and niggles...

    auv nga pala ang adventure nalimutan ko, thank you mga bossing. actually naisip ko lang ang ganyang option baka kako mas maka-menus ako sa pricing, "baka lang" mailaro ko sa 14-15k monthly payment para mas ma-stretch ko ang budget ko kasi nakita ko sa ads na closed to 18k/mos ang brand new adventure.

    how about sa mga reposses na sasakyan ng banko, any experiences na mai-shashare nyu? sensya na first time kong mag-aavail sa banko usually kasi sedan at oldies na 2nd hand ang naipupundar ko, but this time medio lumalaki na mga bata kelangan na talaga ng medio malaking car pag may lakad ang buong family. By the way, BPI ang bank na gagamitin ko....any other useful inputs is highly appreciated.
