I decided to buy a Toyota Fortuner so I went to TQA last Saturday to inquire. The SA I talked to told me that they were advised by Toyota to mention that the new 2007 Fortuner will arrive in July. He said new headlights, front grille, head unit, improved ABS (with EBD maybe?). Anybody got more information about this? Any spy shots? Is it worth to wait?

February 6th, 2007 08:28 AM #3i doubt that TMPI will do that. it would just jeopardize their current stock of fortuners as buyers would just wait for the upgraded fortuner.

February 6th, 2007 09:09 AM #4i've also heard about this "upgraded" fortuner. surely, ipapasa rin sa consumer yun additional costs of the upgrades... baka mahigit na 1.7M yun fort if ever.
until now they're still selling the old fort - well the one with no leather, splash guards etc.

February 6th, 2007 10:04 AM #5Maybe the SA wants you to buy at July bec. this is traditionally when the weak sales month starts (and ends until Nov).
IMO, it is the Innova that needs a makeover right now and not the Fortuner.

February 7th, 2007 12:21 AM #7Well, that's true... But specifically he said that it is an advise to would be customers so that if ever they would buy the current ones they will not complain later on that they were not told about the upcoming facelifted Fort.

February 7th, 2007 07:50 PM #8Well, it seems that TMP now has a conscience, huh. I bought a 2001 Revo SRJ 2.0 A/T Dec. 23, 2001. Before buying it, I asked the SA if a new model will be coming out. She answered in the negative, a few weeks later, the Revo VX200 came out, at almost the same price. I complained to her upon seeing the VX 200 and she said that they were not advised.

Btw, I got a 2.7G Fort last year. At least I would not complain now if ever they release a face-lifted Fort by July...hehe...

February 9th, 2007 08:16 AM #10i agree. Dapat nga they wouldn't disclose that because sila din magsusuffer kung sasabihin nila yun. Eh di nawalan sila ng benta. Originally Posted by boybi

February 7th, 2007 12:17 AM #11Forgot to ask about that. Sana nga 3rd gen na saka may intercooler for the 2.5 crdi. I've been hearing kasi that this variant is underpowered. Originally Posted by ripples

I'm just wondering, the other dealership says no more stock on the 2006 model and what they are selling now is the 2007 model. So bakit yung upgraded or facelifted na lalabas sa July ay 2007 pa rin?

March 2nd, 2007 11:55 AM #13Well... in a way she's right. It is a 2007 Fortuner snce it was produced in 2007. Few sales people know the difference between 2007 production and 2007 model. Semantics... Originally Posted by ersatz0906

February 7th, 2007 12:35 AM #14safala - did the SA mention anything regarding a new tranny? The rumor mill has been "speculating" on a 2007 Fort with manual option.
