new tax system for new SUVs next year?

[boybi]

went to Ford Pampanga yesterday (after dropping by at kimpoy's shop) and looked at the new ford expedition. sabi nung sales rep dun tataas daw ng 50% yung tax for suv's by next year. totoo ba ito? yung price ng new expedition na 1.945M magiging more than 2.2M daw.

[mbt]

well, magiging value-based na yung tax supposedly... not on engine displacement na and mawawala na yung 10-seater AUV exemption... so baka nga tumaas yung price ng premium SUVs (although maibabalik na rin ata yung 4x4 models at no extra tax) that are riding on the 10-seater exemption now

although, sure na bababa yung presyo ng LC100 at prado, at rav4! :D yahoo!

[pajerokid]

sheeeesh............... more taxes ................... wala namang nangyayari! Taxes are the main reason why manufacturers cant bring in the good features...... coz theyre trying to keep costs down

[kiper]

eh.. akala ko pa naman good news na. badtrip naman 'yan oh..!!
pero palagay niyo, kapag pumasok ang xterra dito 4x4 na?

[mbt]

pajerokid,

my fearless predictions: (hula hula lang ito ha! on the basis that premium SUVs riding on the 10-seater exemption will become more expensive when the exemption is removed)

patrol: 4x2 model will be dropped, prices will increase considerably
expedition: prices will increase considerably
trooper: prices will increase considerably
pajero: 4x2 model will be dropped, prices will increase considerably

chevy venture: prices will increase slightly
kia sedona: prices will increase slightly

rav4: prices will drop drastically
grand vitara: prices will drop drastically
cr-v: 10-seater model will be dropped, prices will increase slightly, 4WD model available
escape 4WD: prices will drop drastically

revo, crosswind, adventure: prices will increase slightly
pickups: no change? baka drop slightly...

altis 1.8G: prices will drop considerably
altis 1.6, civic, lynx, sentra, lancer...: prices will drop slightly
city: um... prices will increase slightly?
accord, camry, cefiro...: prices will drop slightly
BMWs, benzes,...: 6-cylinder model (2.5L and above) prices will drop considerably

:? :?:

[pajerokid]

mbt::: hmmmmm..... i agree with some but not all. For example.....

to keep prices down, i think toyota will respond by introducing a FWD RAV4. Honda will retain the current CRV but will Introduce a Higher end model with RT4WD. I agree with your predictions on the Patrol and Pajero. I think the trooper will have a 4WD big brother. Exped? not sure.


Pwede pala tayong manghuhula hehehe :mrgreen:

[boybi]

what do you mean patrol and pajero 4x2's will be dropped? are they going to introduce 4x4 models or hindi na magbebenta ng mga patrols and pajeros?

[pajerokid]

feeling ko lang 4x2s will be dropped. The only reason they were released was to avoid the excise tax on 4x4s. feeling ko lang :D

Does anyone have a link or can explain this new tax scheme?

We're planning to buy a new car early next year so i'm kinda curious on how it will affect the price (we're looking at the Corolla 1.8 or the Hiace Super Grandia).

[Olive Drab]

i heard the scheme will be based on PRICE something like:

3,000,000 and up - 100% tax
600,001 to 900,000 - 3% tax
600,000 and below - 2.5% tax

how about the 901,000 to 2,999,999 ? is this the one taxed at 50%?

[kiper]

uy gusto ko yan.. bababa presyo ng mga small utes.. gusto ko yan.. gusto yan..:twisted:

eh di maglalabas na ng v6 para sa escape ko.. hehehe.. gusto ko yan.. gusto ko yan..:twisted:

[roydok]

Sana ibalik anf 4x4 sa mga SUVs.:?

[mbt]

boybi,

when 4x4 models will be taxed fairly again, there's no reason to sell specially castrated 4x2 models just for our small local market. wala naman kasing 4x2 models talaga ng patrol at pajero e... they were designed from the ground up to be 4x4s and all models sold worldwide are 4x4s.

pajerokid,

who cares about a FWD rav4? the 4wd model is where the action is :wink: yung cr-v i'm sure maglalabas ng rt4wd version, selling alongside the 4x2 model. i'm basing my guess on the expedition on the fact that the gen1 (and current one) benefited from the 10-seater exemption.

[kiper]

thanks to the 10-seater exemption!! kaya nga ang prado ay skyhigh ang presyo. i think P2.5M or P2.7 for the 4wd.

[pajerokid]

mbt::: hehehe ako pre id want a 2wd rav4 (a RAV2 hehhee :mrgreen: ). Basta ba around 700 thou lang e :D Yung CRV na 4wd alam ko in the works daw. Actually dati pa sinabi nung ahente pero up till now ala pa rin :D Pero getting back to the RAV4, OK talaga yung fulltime 4wd nya! it really puts the power to the ground. teka medyo ot na ako ah :D

[kiper]

so mababago na ba talaga ang tax system?

[boybi]

ano balita?

[ASTIG]

taon-taon yata may bagong tax gimmick! yung taxes na yan gagamitin ng politico pambili ng SUV nila.

[RedHorse]

eto ngayon ang nasa congress:

500,000 and below : 3%

501 to 1M: P15,000 + 15% in excess of 500,000

1.001M to 2M: P90,000 + 30% in excess of 1M

Above 2M: P390,000 + 50% in excess of 2M
