It is easy and fun to drive. Yes it can be your daily ride specially if your driving alone but it has very small room for groceries and shopping bags. I have drove my Jimny from Valenzuela to Sucat so far so good. Fuel efficiency is no that good I only got 9km/lt but when Im in highway (Nlex and Sky way) top speed is 125kph 3.5RPM and besides I have a heavy foot.

Lastly Jimny is not as tall as a Pajero or Patrol but it is definitely taller than a car.

Hey larshell

Congrats on the new Jimny. Did you get the manual?
Nice color, ive always wanted that color. and nice photos.

Congrats bro! Wow! Yan yong type ko na color... Azure Gray. Magkano mo po nakuha - P795K pa rin ba or with discount? Saan dealership? Last time i checked, may hint yong agent na baka ma-work out na free yong registration, insurance. Also, san ka nag-test drive nung unit?

**larshell** · October 22nd, 2008 12:37 PM

swordsman, 795K less 10k Free LTO and Free Oil Change up to 20K mileage(filter and oil included) Suzuki Kalookan dealer ko. Eto na yong unit na test drive ko. Thanks!

I was able to test drive yung showrooom unit sa Suzuki Shaw last year. Ok naman ang ride since sanay na ako sa matagtag hehe. medyo mahina ang hatak compared to the yaris a/t that we test-drove on the same day. pero i still want one!

That can be easily solved by letting SPEEDLAB add a turbo intercooler to your Jimny's engine. They already have done it.

**larshell** · October 22nd, 2008 09:08 PM

ghosthunter, Pwede pala lagyan turbo intercooler ang engine Jimny? Hindi kaya madaling masira ang engine kung kung lagyan nito? May lalakas din siguro sa gas? TIA

Comparing it with my Pajero and I think kaya sya matagtag 1st is SWB 2nd coil springs on solid axle and 3rd shocks. I'm considering Old Man Emu pero I'm still thinking pa. If you are really into buying one I can give my agents number pero kung test drive lang I let you drive my Jimny when chance is given.

hey thanks! i expect na matagtag, but coming from a Patrol with stock suspension, i think won't feel a lot of difference sa ride quality.
perhaps next year pa magkaroon ng budget, will pm just in case re: your agent.

interesting. if i remember, those JDM Jimnys with 600cc displacement have intercooler turbos...and very cute to have those little hood scoops.

in addition to larshell's question, approximately how much do the whole installation costs? do they put on a hood scoop after installing the turbo intercooler?
