Great Wall Cars Philippines

[tidus1203]

Yeah but Chinese cars in China is totally different from Chinese cars in the Philippines. There they have lot of support, and some of these Chinese car makers are partially owned by the communist government. Eh dito, we have really small companies that sell these Chinese cars that can easily fold anytime. And if they fold, there goes your maintenance and parts...

if there will be more people who think like me, i dont believe that will happen.

that is why i told myself, once i get my first chinese vehicle and am happy with it, i dont mind doing PR for them. thats the best way to neutralize and even thwart the bad publicity chinese manufacturers are getting from people who havent even used their vehicles.

hi scharnhorst, did you see my previous post?

i said i will give an unbiased review of my coolbear once i start driving it.

and if i am not happy with its performance and value for money that i have spent buying it, ako mismo ang magsasabi dito para malaman nyong lahat.

thats not loving your own. coz i have not started loving it yet....

thats what i call being fair which i think alot of the people posting here have forgotten.

well, lousy car or not, aren't you still going to love it?

our 10 y.o. ranger is pathetic by today's standards, but we still find it charming.

Yeah, GEELY just closed shop in the Philippines. its a bigger company than GW.

Kawawa the few people who bought. Wala nang Maintenance and parts.

Mas maraming pera ang Statemotor at FMC kaya magtatagal dito ang Great Wall.

Eto yata ang new products ng GW sa Beijing Motor Show na ongoing ngayon!:

Hindi backed ng Geely mismo ang dealer nila dito.Yung Pan Fil-Intertrade yata name nang dealer nila noon at maganda ang plans nila pero wala masyadong nag-invest sa kanila kaya nalugi.

And diba even Chery muntikan na buti naglagay uli ng bagong pera yung investor kung hindi magsasara na rin sana...

[renzo_d10]

Yep. Muntikan na rin Chery. If ever that happens naku po ... kawawa ang mga customers nila. Medyo madami na din kasi eh.

Siguro ako mapapabili mo lang ako ng Chinese vehicle kung alam ko na stable na sila at kaya nila tumapat sa mga jap/korean/us etc. made vehicles.

Alin ba sa mga yan ang nakatapos na ng Paris-Dakar rally? O lumaban na sa World Rally championships? F1... F3 man lang? Teka nga, ang Hyundai ba naka-subok na sa mga ito?

Sa tingin ko kasi, yan ang sure bet na proving grounds ng mga mahusay na car/SUV/bikes brands ngayon. Hangga't hindi sila dadaan dyan, they have to settle as being budget cars only, bigboy toys even. Marami nga sa kanila, pwedeng poor man's Cooper, Fortuner, Yaris, Starex. Wag na lang magtampo yung mga orig...

Ang importante eh dapat mura lang di hamak kaysa orig. Sa akin, walang problema basta't hindi maging sanhi ng aksidente sa publiko ng ganun na lang. Kung dependable naman, bakit hindi? Mas mainam naman yang GW cars kaysa mga karag-karag na bus at jeep na naglipana sa Metro Manila ngayon.

Sa mga bumili, mabuhay kayo! Kapag dumami yan ng walang masyadong isyu, baka kumuha din kami. Kursunada ko rin yang Coolbear at Peri, wala lang laman pitaka ko ngayon.

Great Wall and Chery joined the Paris Dakar Rally last January sa Production Class. They've finished and survived the rally.

tidus1203 may pera na ang Iseway at Yupangco group kaya tuloy na ang Chery.

[Newcomer123]

Well, well...

Several mighty big names came later than the lowly GWHover...

More of these, who knows...

IMO, they're on the right track going against the big boys! ;)

[Newcomer123]

Problema lang, baka maging mas mahal na kaysa ngayon, pati GW di na tayo makabili! ;)

[prince777]

sigurado po yan sir NC123....ganun talaga, pag marami gustong bumili, itataas ang presyo..

pero type ko yung hover ah!...mahal nga lang para sa akin...

[eggman]

May local assembly plant na sila rito na dating FMC plant sa Las Pinas..Di naman tataas ang presyo nang mga GW cars.

[rockiee_s]

ang tagal ng araw.....kakainis...

ang tagal dumating ng coolbear ko......

im so excited!!!!

Ok ito locally assembled, pag nagkataon baba pa ang presyo..Hover also got my attention pero observe mode lang muna ako.
OT: Nasundan ko ang Gwperi 2 days ago sa zapote-alabang road kulay orange, eye catching siya. Palipat lipat ako sa likod at side para ma view, kyut talaga sa paningin ko.

Mga sir, gusto ko lang i-share:

From the article:

Great Wall X240 SUV 2010
Having been here only a matter of months, this Chinese-made four-wheel-drive has yet to earn its stripes or indeed, make a difference to the automotive industry. But being priced from $24,000 (AUD 1 = PHP 41.++) on the road with features including airconditioning, power windows, leather trim and an electric transfer case, it seems certain to force down the price of all new and used light SUVs. The X240 is a pivotal vehicle because it's probably the forerunner of a juggernaut as big as the 1960s Japanese invasion. Have you seen any new toasters or power tools lately that were made anywhere other than China?


According to Wikipedia:

"In Australia, the Hover is badged Great Wall X240"
