Brand 'new' Gen 2.5 Pajero

[Bry]

What do you guys think of this SUV?

They're still selling this for 1.6M over at Mitsu.

AFAIK, this comes in full leather, has a beefed up entertainment system (it comes with a big LCD and a subwoofer), immobilizer, bumper overrider, Ralliart mags, GPS, and a lot more. (Can anyone add more to the list?)


Anybody know what engine this has? How much HP and torque?


All in all, how would you fare this versus the diesel Fortuner?




MODS: I'm sorry but I had to make a new thread, I feel that my query would most probably get lost in the other '2.5' thread. If you think that you should delete or merge this thread, I kindly request that you allow at least 24 hours grace period on this very urgent inquiry. Thank you very much.

it has a 2.8 sohc intercooled turbo engine, 125ps * 4k rpm and 292nm * 2k rpm. 4m40 engine. If you can wait 8 months I'd say get the fortuner.

[pajerokid]

Yup. Get the Fortuner. Although the Pajero still has a lot of admirable qualities, at the end of the day it's still a decade-old car.

IMO... the Montero is a better buy (with its 4wd) than the Gen 2.5

kwawang pajero 2.5...pigang-piga na..

I can't wait for the Fortuner.... I guess I'll have to go with my 2nd choice, the Camry.

if they brought back the gen2.5 pajero, i think mas magiging mabenta pa ito sa montero sport n might even compete with the fortuner again.

[andre]

Yup, I agree with you, If they can stripped down the unnecessary accessories of the 2.5 gen Pajero. add 4x4, bring down the price. It can still compete with Fortuners out there.

[KCboy]

andre,
tama ka, i forgot to type the 4x4, tanggakin nila yung tire sensor....kahit yung dvd....but if d tinanggal at same price, iiyak talaga yung fortuner. or what if lagyan nila ng dvd system yung montero sport since old model din naman yun....patay na fortuner.

[odell]

wait na lang.. medyo kalat na ang pajero. hehehehe

[mbt]

for 1.6M, ewan nalang yung bibili ng castrated gen2.5 pajero over a fortuner 4x4 or a montero sport 4x4 hehehe or even a sorento

[paj4x4]

Even if I'm a Pajero fanatic, the wise choice will be the Fortuner.

[KCboy]

kung yung fieldmaster na pajero with all the whistles plus 4x4 for 1.6m, i'll get the paj na over the fortuner na. hehe.

The problem with buying a brand new 2.5 gen pajero is that there are so many surplus running around. Sayang lang bibili ka nga brand new.
