thanks in advance!

AFAIK walang difference ang 2012 model sa 2011 dito sa pinas and for the next two to three years eh wala yan magiging major difference for sure(just like Mazda 3 na late na nilabas dito). Unlesss siguro na iintroduce nila yung 2.3 Turbo Diesel na version ng CX7 dito sa pinas. Ang difference lang ng 2011/2012 sa 2010 model are yung chrome door handles and black lining na yung sa may fog lamps instead of silver.

Wala pang next gen ang CX-7 as of now so we're expecting na matagal tagal pa looking new ang CX7 dito sa pinas. Also, knowing Mazda Philippines eh more or less three years late sila mag-release ng next gen model dito sa pinas so matagal pa talaga mapapalitan itong CX-7 dito sa pinas.

Pero if Mazda Phils' marketing strategy changes, they can bring in the Skyactiv Mazda CX-5 here late next year or early 2013.

Kung ako sayo bibili na ako ng CX7 dahil I'm sure matagal pa mapapalitan ang CX7 dito. Just look at the Mazda 3 na binebenta pa din nila kahit three years ng may bagong model.

Thanks for the reply sir!

Matagal pa pala ang CX-5 dito, akala ko mga early next year meron na. What about the Ford Escape 2012 version, mas ok pa rin ba ang 7?

Some more questions mga sir, meron po bang option ang CX7 dito to change the radio to an LCD one? Also, may option din bang ma convert into a Push Start button system?

Thanks again!

Yung bagong Escape 2013 model pa yun so I don't think that will arrive here next year. By that time hindi na siguro comparable ang CX-7 sa Escape so siyempre dun na lng sa mas bago. You might also want to consider the new 2012 CR-V pero malamang 2013 pa din dumating dito yan ksi yung bagong Civic nga hindi pa din ni-rerelease dito. Check mo dito initial comparison The main bout in L.A.? Ford Escape vs. Honda CR-V

Sa casa meron silang ino-offer na palit ng HU to LCD with GPS etc, I think abutin ka 50K sa casa. Meron din ako nakita sa Manila Auto Salon na ibang brand ng LCD for CX-7 hindi ko lng natanong price. About sa push start conversion walang ino-offer sa casa na ganito.

I think that is the Smart-i brand from Astute the LCD that you are referring to. I think it sells for 42K.

maraming salamat mga sir! :D

di ko type yung CX-5, Ford Escape 2012 looks nice!

I changed my HU to LCD, i got it at 39k sa casa, it has DVD player + 2 headreast monitor, GPS, TV and back-up monitor with sensor (back only), feel ko sulit na rin.. masagwa lang, yung pang adjust ng Clock ay naka built-in sa original HU, so babalik ka sa casa if want your clock changed

question lang, wala talagang auto sensing door lock ito?
