I doubt it'll cost less than an Evoque. So wala na rin yan Remember, a Boxster costs at Php7m. I don't see Porsche Philippines releasing a SUV (which is a more practical purchase) at prices lower than those.

totally understand, just wanted to make it clear. anyway just so you know the more expensive the car is the more expensive it is to own. all the cars on your list are already expensive to maintain so cheap maintenance is out of the question, the only difference will be the FC and the Q5 will have the best FC but the difference won't be that big.

Their pricing is a bit tricky because both the base panamera and the base cayenne are around 6.2-6.8M, I cant see them pricing it too near those two. Im not so sure, it appears the cayman and the boxster are more expensive than they should be due to tax reasons. The Q5 starts at 32K UK whilst the Macan is predicted at 36K Uk, not a giant price difference.
Id rather get a Macan than an Evoque as a daily (German reliability is superior to British/Indian reliability

Is the VW Toureg out locally already?
Mas big time si Doc BJ kay Napoles... Mas matangkad ng mga 1ft siguro
OT: Where do you practice now? I couldn't even imagine how you use to bring your A31 to PGH and Bulacan before and still keep it looking great whenever i see it.
When i was leaving Glorietta last night, the black GLK was indeed tantalizing. Sarap ng problema ni Doc actually... busting his brain on what CUV to get. :D
Buti pa si misis ko, clear ang instructions sa akin na Mini Cooper ang gusto niya. Problema ko nalang yung pambili. :D

OT: Hehe si misis yan din ang trip. May matching kwento pa na napapaginipan daw niya na nagd-drive siya nung JCW na mini haha
BTT: Go for the Merc! Specially at speed, ang ganda ng itsura! And if it's well taken care of you could probably hand it down to your apo sa tuhod haha.

November 7th, 2013 11:25 AM #27Palagi ako nasa Handyman buying detailing proucts and I had my car detailed every week then.... Hehe. I remember na pag may dumi, linis agad.
I'm practicing in QC area, but I still make it a point to go to car shows and auto-related events whenever I can, but as a spectator nalang, hehe.
I saw the Touareg sa Philippine website ng VW, and dapat isama siya shortlist ko, hehe.
Mini Cooper ba gusto ni misis? Kayang-kaya ni vinj yan! Ikaw pa, hehe.

November 7th, 2013 05:23 PM #28On 2nd thought.... i would get neither of your choices. I had an X3 totl before. The depreciation was horrible. If you look at Second hand Audi Q5s now, their prices are pathetic compared to purchase prices. Yes, those cars exude prestige, but a wise man's money (for that budget) would be on a grey market P3.9M LC200. Thats where my money will go. If you're looking at the Lexus RX.... then the Kodo facelifted CX9 is better value for money and just as sweet to drive with an extra third row. It looks gorgeous.
For the smaller CUVs in your list, the current Forester XT will beat all those cars in terms of pure performance at less than half the price. And its not too shabby interior wise either with similar levels of kit and toys. Im very happy with mine. Your current Santa Fe will surprisingly put a lot of these too shame as well.
Dont get me wrong, I am NOT a brand snob. I like Beemers and Mercs and other teutonic beauties as much as the rest of you do. But for these CUVs there are better choices out there.

November 7th, 2013 06:20 PM #29Bro, you have a very valid point there. Come to think of it, the prices of 2nd hand premium CUVs are really low compared to their brand new prices... hmm, would it be better then to get a pre-owned one instead?
I also saw an advertisement regarding leasing these vehicles instead of buying it. What are your thoughts on this?
And yes, the LC.... I agree it is the wise man or practical mans choice. Kailangan ko lang talaga ma-convince si misis....
