Toyota Dealerships finally feeling the pinch?

[carlove]

hehe ang totoong "fortuner" dito ay yung dealer at yung financial company ng toyota. hehe

You're right. Toyota and the dealers are making a fortune on the Fortuner. Strike hard on the poor Filipinos while the iron's hot

[bruswayne]

pot of gold talaga,wat a fortune(r),heard din fr the dealer that the plant is releasing just 10 units of fortuner a month,kaya agawan talaga unit at isip ng gimik para sulit yung mga toyota dealer,puro best friend ,pinsan,kamag anakan ang mga meron lang,arnold clavio nakakuha din

[zeagle]

Nakakapang-init ng ulo!

[carlocaraddict]

anong dealer yan? sobra naman yan!!!!

[Bogeyman]

Nakakapang-init ng ulo!

Heck, don't get mad, get even. That's what the free market is for. Let them price the thing however much they wish. It's their funeral after all.

[FrankDrebin]

Hehehe.

Tired waiting for your "Fortune"r?

[odell]

nagkakalokohan na talaga grabe..

Wala bang law sa Pilipinas na pwedeng idemanda ang ganyang practice? Obviously, they have units available. Pero bakit kailangan nila ipilit sa buyer na sa kanila kumuha ng insurance at kailangan na financing lang ang unit, hindi pwede ang cash. That's a total deception of public trust. Dapat sa Toyota, idemanda o isumbong sa DTI. O kaya kay Tulfo o sa Imbestigador, para hindi si TANTANAN ni Mike Enriquez, unless Mike has a Fortuner unit too like Arnold Clavio.

Kakausapin lang ni Arnold si Mike, "Igan, wag mo nang galawin 'yan. Balato mo na lang sa kin. Medyo matagal pa ang hulugan ko dyan eh."

well afaik wala naman clang mali talaga on the legal side. kapalan lng talaga ng mukha para kumita lalo. best u can do is just ignore their cars and buy others instead hehe

Got this text from an agent in one of Toyota's many dealers:

"Hi gud am! Dis is ****** of toyota *******, jst want 2 inform u we have available fortuner provided it wld be inhouse financing, inhouse insurance and wid 305,000 worth of accessories.. Jst let me knw po f intrested.. Tnx! Gud day!Ü"

I asked the agent to fax me the details of the offer. Here are the figures:

Unit Price _____________P1,533,000.00
Compre Insurance__________61,945.00
LTO Reg. (3yrs)_____________9,000.00
Chattel Mortgage __________31,452.00
Full Leather _______________70,000.00
HID Lights_________________25,000.00
Mags and Tires____________210,000.00

30%downpayment_________459,900.00
70% amt.financed _______1,073,100.00
Monthly for 3yrs____________39,696.00
Monthly for 4yrs____________31,963.00
__________________________________
TOTAL CASH OUTLAY ______865,698.00


Notice the outrageous figures? It's definitely too much!

The text marketing is a definite sign that they are having trouble selling the units they blinged-up. I guess they have lots of these upgraded units gathering dust (and rain) in their dealership parking lots. And, nobody wants 'em! Who'd want a P1.8M+ unit? That's nearly the price of a more upscale Ford Explorer XLT!

What do you guys think?

Screw them and let them gather more dust and rain.

Nandoon ako sa Bangkok last month at nakita ko yung presyo ng Fortuner na 3.0 turbo diesel ay nasa Baht 1.219 million. Halos PhP1.8 narin. Full leather and mags and very nice.

[111prez]

hmmmm, dealers feeling the pinch or is it really the sales personnel who are feeling the pinch?

ang commission ng sales agent nakatali ata sa actual payment and delivery of a unit and with the few units being released/delivered, nakabitin rin ang commission nila

[seung]

Hehe, walang maloloko kung walang magpapaloko. Akala nila forever silang pipilahan. Nakangiti nga yung agent namin sa Nissan kasi lumilipat sa kanya yung ibang hindi makakuha ng Fortuner.

[empy]

bwahaha....make them an offer of P1.2 million including the leather and rims/tires, take it or leave it. let's see how desperate they really are ;)

btw for 210k for rims/tires you can get fully forged, lightweight, 3-piece racing rims and high-performance tires. anyone have a pic of these 'super exotic' fortuner rims? :bwahaha:
