what's the big deal in identifying a subic pajero on the road? or a local one? or any cheap looking or TH ride?

Delikado daw ang converted. Come to think of it, yun ngang mga local jeeps natin binubuo ng walang engineering and research. Tansi tansi lang ang gamit pag nag assemble e wala namang masamang nangyayari. Buong sasakyan pa ang ginagawa ha. Pati bus satin karamihan dyan converted. Siguro roughly 80% ng tao sa phillipines dyan sumasakay. Kung delikado yan e sana wala na mga yan. Samantalang converted pajeros e yun lang namang steering ang major na nagalaw. Meron pang exact locations na kung saan ibo-bolt ang gearbox and everything underneath.

Para naman dun sa ang tingin sa mga naka ex jdm cars ay cheap. Tama, cheap nga ang pagkakabili, pero mas matibay ang mga ito at mas tatagal. Nakakita ka na ba ng galing japan na merong undercoat? Wala. Hindi uso undercoat duon. Body color ang pang ilalim ng lahat ng auto nila Nakakita ka na ba ng galing japan na kinakalawang? very rare. Nakakita kana ba ng kupas na kupas na pintura from imports? bihira. E extreme pa ang weather condition sa japan. Matindi acid rain dun. To think na karamihan nito ay from 1990-1995 pa. Subjective nalang yung mga nagsasabi na cheap looking ang mga ito. Japan po ito sir. Karamihan nga ng mapopormang naka honda halos palitan nila ng jdm parts ang mga nabili nilang car para gumanda. Cheap ba yun?

Wala namang problema kung revo kunin mo. Ok naman yun, Less hassle pa kung maayos ang makukuha mo at wala ka ng iisiping baka nga delikado ang converted.

wow... you have sharp eyes...

di ko kasi mapapansin ang kaibahan eh... kung hindi lang sa Plate no. o yung fieldmaster 2800...

though most subic owners doesn't take care much of their vehicles... kahit man lang decent washing.

e ano naman kung cheap looking or TH? basta 100% satisfied at masaya ako sa jdm lc80 at pajero ko, kahit ano sabihin nila, that's the only important thing to me.

a piece of advice, kung sobra pera mo, bili ka na ng brand new. kung kulang, hanap ka ng second hand. kung na-che-cheap-an ka sa SUVics, huwag kang bibili at mag-local second hand ka. kung nagtitipid ka talaga, take lrt, mrt, bus, jeepney or tricycle. kung gusto mo pang maging fit, mag-bike ka na lang. this means, it's all up to you. you can have a reliable subic ride kung gusto mo, call joseph for pajero or go to pampanga for the lc. diskarte lang yan kapatid. kung type mo talaga ang revo, e di bilhin mo, reliable din yan. kanya-kanyang preferences.

at kung cheap talaga ang tingin nila sa mga SUVics, i suggest that they don't look at them. wag nang pakatitigan. but i guess people just can't take their eyes off them, huh. super mura kasi tapos japan specs pa, saan ka pa?

at huwag masyado maniniwala sa mga baseless opinions, each has got a different one. see for yourself and scrutinize closely. clear any pre-conceived ideas about jdm's, ask current owners and they will tell you from their first hand experiences. as i mentioned earlier, huwag magmamadali sa pagbili, browse more and i suggest you call joseph (there's a thread here - pajero expert) and ask him, he will tell you a very reliable info about jdm's. then you will realize. then your eyes will be opened. then you can decide. then you can smile at all the people around you. then you will live happily ever after, like in the movies, he he he.

around 350k for the 4d56 5door. around 450k for the 4m40 5 door. pogi na yan & irresistible. siyempre mas mahal konti pag ayos na ayos na at naka-display na sa showroom.

I think you know how to discern when you own one....

liquidator: It's just my personal opinion. As long as you're happy with your Pajero and LC, then that's all that matters.

IMO, JDM pajeros don't LOOK cheap at all, especially the EXCEED models, they're equipped with leather seats, all power, sunroof, headlight washer, adjustable suspension and etc etc.. way way better than the local versions.. i even like the one piece mirrors (looks cleaner) on the backrow compared to the sliding ones on locals..

The only thing that may make them look cheap, is just the THOUGHT on how much they would have probably aquired it :D

eto nga pala naisip ko lang since galing ko kay bigbert nung tues:

ang revo pag pinacarwash mo, sa medium category siya...
ang pajero ay nasa large na...

so pagpapacarwash po, masmahal sisingilin sa pajero kaysa sa revo...

for me 1 thing lang naman magkakapareho sila: sa bayad sa expressway!

so kung saan ka happy, dun ka.
