Pati yung carnival stripped down version ang nandito -- kulang nga airbags kahit mas mataas ang presyo dito -- wala pang support.

Parang mas OK pa bumili ng 2 kotse ngayon kesa mag van.

Yah. They might come out with it ... in another 10 years!

I wouldn't put 'lang' and 'safety features' in the same sentence ...

Baka yung Gen 5 na Starex wala nang airbags, disc breaks, ABS, tsaka 5 seater nalang... hahaha! LOLZ! Nagagandahan ako sa bagong Rexton 2... halos magkasing price lang yung Grand Starex Gold tsaka top of the line ng rexton II... ganda pa ng features! Guys what do you think? Hehe!

Kokey ano ok kaya yun?

What is the big difference between Innova and starex with reference to their specs below. Seems like Starex has the edge over Innova since it has higher classification of performance esp. DSL to DSL.
Ano kaya reason ng Toyota kung bakit mas mababa output ng Innova compared to its predecessors.

Safety features lang pala, no big deal.

Well, baka naman kung wala yung TCI variants, ganun pa din kataas yung CRDI variants, lalong nawalan sila nang pwedeng ibenta...

I've a feeling they retained the TCI's so that they could compete with the lower ranged, well relatively lower ranged, vans. Despite having a D-4D powerplant, the Innova/Hiace engine produces 102hp/260Nm torque while the Grand Starex's TCI produces 101hp/232Nm torque.
