Yung 2010 wala ng leather yun both seats and door trims. Yung wood makintab na din which does not look nice. Although mas maganda ang gauges ng 2010 kasi optitron and the design looks better...

Sa exterior naman I like the 2007's front grille better, I also like its mags better and I like the fact na the roof rails are BLACK and the new 2010 is SILVER...

Yeah. Mukhang cheap yung loob ng 2010. Coming from a 2010 owner

Nabwiset ako nawala yung leather. Mas ok sa akin yung walang GPS at DVD than walang leather seats. Namamaho kasi pag tumatagal.

Ang leather punas-punas lang oks na..

Performance = Forester XT
Space, looks, versatility, efficiency, practicality, etc. = Santa Fe

Feeling ko tinipid ng HARI yung 2010 model.. Yung leather seats ng 07 mas maganda tignan. Feeling mo mahal but for the 2010 parang pilit yun leather seats nya.. (4x4).. yung 4x2 hindi na leather seats. Yung bumper guard sa rear wala na... :-) ....

Eto SF and FXT side by side.. Repost ko lang pics para makita ng TS yung size ng dalawa.. BTW, yung FXT despite na mataas ang road clearance nya, feeling mo kapag naka upo ka sa loob parang kotse lang at hindi SUV ang height ng seats.

Kaya nga magpapakabit pa ako nung lintek na bumper guard na yun. 2.5K din pala yun

Agree ako sa leather seats. Yung sa 2006-2009 models maganda yung color combination at yung material, perforated pa yung gitna.

Makisig yung front chin ng FXT mo, imperialv.

Ganda.
-------
Ganda rin ng garage niyo. Hehe.

Alang adjustable roof racks ang 2010 SF right? Even the exhaust tips are different.

Buy the SF first if you have a family, then the FXT for your adrenaline rush.

Yep. Hindi na adjustable cross bars.

Maganda parin naman tingnan. Kaso sablay yung color.

Forester 2.5XT - reliability, driving pleasure, pride in the ride, ganda ng porma, not too many on the road.

Santa Fe - bigger in size, mas mura ang parts, better FC

In the end it boils down to what fits you. Goodluck

Thanks sa mga pumuri sa garage ko..

Yes.. Its a hyundai 05 Getz 1.3 A/T... Konti lang ata mayroon kami nyan since wala pang six months na f/l na ang getz. Kasama ako dun sa 1st ten na nag register nung buhay ba yung malaysian website ng getzclub...

Forgot to mention, yung NVH - FXT..

I'll 2nd the motion for those who answered SF first then FXT...

baligtad naman ako, kahit anong car mas gusto ko hindi leather seats. pag leather kasi umiinit tapos tagal lumamig na babalisawsaw tuloy ako:bwahaha:, pag malamig naman sobrang lamig din kahit heated seats pa tagal uminit pag malamig na ang leather seats. never ko pa naman na experience bumaho ang seats ko, siguro nasa nag maintain na lang yan.

i agree with this also syempre priority ang family, pero if single okaya wife and 1 kid pa lang pwede na ang fxt.

Isa pa pala yung 2010 wala ng chrome bits yung door handles which makes it more elegant kung meron also nawala na din yung black plastic sa rear bumper to prevent it from scratching the bumper when loading cargo...
