[edgee]

yup sa forum ng innova madami ng mga concerns, that's what im afraid off, at least sa pajero tried and tested na, but i'm still confident with toyota but i really want a white pajero hrrrrmm. sana the fortuner will be worth waiting.

depends on your priorities...

if you want to get an SUV right now, the Pajero is really a no brainer. ageless design, bulletproof engine, numerous amenities... the only thing lacking is the 4WD.

but on paper, the Fortuner is IMO worth the wait. but wait until you see and drive the real deal. plus the complete specs & features.

here's a sneak peek from Bangkok...

TOYOTA FORTUNER: 999,000 baht

+ The 163hp 3.0-litre diesel is torquey and offers good all-round performance. The Fortuner is good for travelling upcountry, as well as to remote places where you may have to go off-road.

- It's not suited for city use, due to its size and full-time 4wd that increases your gas bills. Third row of seats don't fold away ingeniously.

999,000.00 THB Thailand Baht = 1,391,652.41 PHP Philippines Pesos

Compared sa probably P1.5M na Fortuner, ok na yan! May sobra ka pa na P0.5M na pang treat samin! Hehehe...

wait for the bnew.

I wouldn't say that the FORTUNER is nonexistent, since it does. Nonexistent in the Philippines? YES. But yet we can also read a lot of good reviews from countries that already have the SUV. It would be totally unimaginable and utterly unacceptable if TOYOTA would invest billions of dollars for IMV program that it is not progressive in concept and not on the level of technology they are in right now.

I can vouch for TOYOTA Technology against a ten-year old Mitsubishi design. That's for sure! But again, its up to the buyer to finally decide! But hey, PAJERO is not a bad SUV. Not at all. But if you compare it to the recently released SUVs, you might do a little more of investigating by yourself other than just listening to what other people had to say.

parang may mga reklamo na ang mga Innova owners about their rides.

Anong reklamo?

[mazdamazda]

Anong reklamo?

di ko lang mahanap yung thread... pero dba may nagpapalit nung hood nya yata (or isang panel)...

then there's the vanishing coolant of InnovaBoy... plus his fuel consumption...

[ILuvDetailing]

Why not test drive both? That way you can see the diffrence.

[edgee]

the thing is, i can't test drive a fortuner yet, have to wait for a few months, anybody out there knows when the fortuner will be officially launch?
can you give me websites where i can read reviews of fortuner?

[ILuvDetailing]

Have to be patient my friend, this will be a big investment. You might want to visit the Transhow in Megamall this April. The Fortuner might be displayed there.

ika nga... patience is a virtue

[promdiboy]

what model yung pajero?

[OTEP]

Fortuner competes with the Montero Sport. The Pajero FM is a very old design. Established na ang strengths and weaknesses niya.

The IMV is a very new platform. Expect some teething problems with it.

hay naku, yung friend ko na magbebenta ng Paj nya its an 02 but all 05 look even with HID and new big tires - mud tires ata they call it. eh sabi sa akin ngayon antayin nya daw yung fortuner bago nya ibigay yung paj nya. so might as well wait for the fortuner diba?
but honestly i want to get a paj already 1.65M with leather seats, LCD DVD player, variable shock, low power but fuel economy.... sa fortuner hindi pa natin alam ang magiging draw backs nyan. besides kung 1.5M din fortuner diff of 150K nalang full SUV na.
What do you guys think?

[nugundam93]

i heard that they're putting out i think 50+ units ng gen2.5 pajeros uli from the plant...may demand pa raw kasi eh...

[edgee]

yes, actually waiting list pa ako, kaso yung sa friend ko 89K na tinakbo, malaki na ba yon? sabi kasi nila kapag 100K na kailangan na magpalit ng timimng belt, althoug sa paj daw na 4m40 timing chain na hindi belt? can anyone clarify?
plus 89,000 kilometers parang ang taas na nun diba, kaso i can vouch that the car looks like a 20,000km really sariwa. tapos whitre color pa! gwapings!

[GlennSter]

90k in just 3 years!?!?

whoah....thats....errr...high.

[nugundam93]

89K? how old na was the pajero, edgee? ours is pushing 3 years on august and we've ran about 63K na. :D

i'm not sure if timing chain or belt, i'll check later...

[edgee]

nugundam93,

dude may mga pinalitan ka na ba? kasi yung friend ko nagpalit na ng shocks? how about your paj?
