Mas marami bang Pinoy ang makikinabang sa importer ng surplus cars kaysa sa mga local car manufacturer?
OR
Kaya bang saluhin ang Phil economy ng mga importers ng surplus cars kapag nagsara na ang mga local car manufacturers?

The Philippine's market for brand new and second hand vehicles is very small compared to other markets (like the UK) that can afford to take on surplus vehicles. Notice why the price of 2nd hand vehicles here is high compared even to our ASEAN neighbors.
Another thing... the UK can take on Japan surplus since they both drive on the right since LHD conversion is another bloody thing to contend with. Granted that there are some good conversion shops there, but what about other 90% of ex-JDM vehicles out there? Heck, turboawd's 1000hp Skyline was shipped to Dubai for proper LHD conversion.

pardon me sir, when you said "hindi lahat ng converted vehicles eh dangerous" and kung "maayos ang pag-convert", do you take it to mean that even the stock headlights and windshield wipers of RHD's are also converted for LHD purposes?
kasi po, kung hindi kasama mga ito then i beg to disagree with your point..
please correct me if i'm wrong pero ang pagkakaalam ko po kasi eh iyon lang steering mechanism ang usually ginagawa, and required for LTO registration, sa RHD to LHD conversion in the Philippines.
:peace:

ex-JDM GEN II Pajero TDi with USDM GEN I Vortec Conversion:
There are not off-road only toys. They have license tags and are used as daily drivers. The owner of the ex-JDM Pajero traded in his Mitsubishi Lancer for it.

If that's the case, how about ung mga sariling assembled na sasakyan?
may wiper ba mga yan?
tama ba ang pagsalpak nila ng headlights?
how about ung surplus na steering assembly na gamit nila?
how about ung surplus na hydrovac ng preno na gamit nila?
kompleto ba lahat ng signal lights/park lights/hazard?
it's double standard kung pag-iinitan nila ung mga japan surplus tapos di nila papakialaman ung mga local na di sumusunod sa regulations.

Karapatan naman ng mga local car manufacturer yan isipin nyo na lang multi billion yung investment nila. Kelangan din nilang pangalagaan ang kanilang negosyo. Napakalaki pa ng tax na binabayaran nila. Ilagay nyo ang sarili nyo sa katayuan nila sigurado magrereklamo din kayo.
Paano pa natin maeengganyong magtayo ng planta ang mga ibang car manufacturer dito kung pinapabayaan ng gobyerno natin na makapasok ang mga imported na sasakyan. Kung dadami ang car manufacturer sigurado bababa din ang presyo mas marami ng makakabili ng mga brand new na sasakyan at hindi na 2nd hand na imported/converted.
agree ako syo. battery dying will be the next owner's problem. kaso the only reason I'm buying...
