New Mitsubishi Strada [ARCHIVED]

[Boz]

Can someone advise me. I have a reservation for a 2010 Strada GLX in Diamond Motors, but it has been weeks and they still can not commit when I will be able to get it. Then just this afternoon I found out that Union Motors in Caloocan already has the model and variant i want. What will be the most ethical way of telling the SA in Diamond Motors that I will just let go of my reservation and that I will be getting from Union Motors? In fairness to her, she has been helpful and accommodating.

Thanks guys.

This happened to me before. Pero my original SA committed to a certain time frame to deliver my choice of Strada. When the deadline came, I found out na meron sa ibang dealer kaya pina-reimburse ko na lang yung reservation fee. Mabait naman yung SA, kaya lang on the day na kukunin ko na unit, tumawag sya na meron na sila same unit. too late though.

hehehe, upon paying the membership fee, may free kayong club t-shirt and sticker... inclusive po yun sa bayad hehehe

In short, talagang libre yung Tshirt and Club sticker, hehehe. Si sir moxxxs, talaga, o, jinojoke yung mga prospective members natin.

Sir NF, sino ba ang mas matimbang sa puso mo, yung helpful and accommodating (beautiful?) SA mo sa Diamond or yung naghinintay na bagong-bago at mahalinang strada sa Union Motors? Your answer to this question will lead you to the right decision. The most ethical way is to tell her straight what your decision is.

Another thing, when I was in Cebu BPI madness, a guy from Mitsubishi there told me that the front armrest in the GLS variant is also available in the GLX . But the SA from Union Motors told me that there is none in the GLX.

A front armrest sa GLX? Hmmm...that I have to see.

Doc boz, medyo hinalungkat ko itong previous post mo kasi mukhang nabasa ng Caltex itong post mo. Sabi ng Caltex balikan mo na daw yung diesel nila at magpakarga ka sa kanila uli kasi may TECHRON na daw ang diesel nila, whatever that means, hehehe.

Bro, di maganda experience ko w/ caltex. bumubuga ng black smoke once in a while. Never noticed it w/ Petron.

Tapos post ka dito sa thread na ito for your feedback: Caltex diesel with techron d

Sayang talaga at hindi na sila naglabas ng 2.5 4x2 na A/T para sa mga tamad na mag manual tulad ko hehe. Ganda though nung kulay, reminds me of the carbon bronze of the facelifted civic, really love that color.

[nanofossil]

siguro sir just be honest lang about your concerns. since they do not have the unit, you had to go to someone who can provide you the soonest possible time. by the way, if ever n caloocan ka kumuha, kailan daw po made-deliver?

The SA committed 3 to 10 days daw. He is not sure if the GLX has a metallic brown color, although he told me that there is a new color, Marlboro Red daw. Medyo na disappoint ako nung sinabi nya na walang front armrest ang GLX. I'm going to Union Motors Caloocan tomorrow to look at it.

Can you actually reimburse the reservation fee? If that is possible... i can just do that and give it to her for all the effort she exerted. Pampalubag loob ba? But then again, I plan to talk to my current SA and maybe demand a time frame para di ako umalis sa kanya.

dark gray rims are universally appealing to probably most standard colors of the strada... it went well with sir Boy25 to start with. thanks for sharing this sir JPG111.

I think its because of the color of the Strada's fender flares.

[jashty_enzo]

Aircon Switch is black, rear window switch is also tranfer to the lower part. (No ashtray)


Center Console is black (Unlike the older model with trimming or lining)


Seat is fabric no armrest (Older model parang nylon spill proof)

[jashty_enzo]

TMPS


Instrument panel is all black


Dot Matrix display monitor

[kimospeed]

bakit po parang mas maganda pa ung 2009 (my 2 scents lng po)
1. fabric seats, hindi na sha spill proof like ung 2009
2. ung radio nya aux in lng wala USB unlike ung 2009
pero infairness maganda ung leather steering wheel (hindi na sya madulas)

[JOGON]

gud afternoon po =) am keeping my fingers crossed na lumabas na nga tomorrow ung unit namin.. from the gray color napunta kami sa red (maganda din pala) =) nilalagyan na daw ng tints and after lunch tomorrow marerelease.. after several promises of having it released early sana totoo nato =) haayyyy one more sleepless night...

[ThePatriarch]
