There should be. I'll update you guys as soon as the test drive unit is available.

First impressions: Interior is kinda Previa-ish. For my height, its spacious. Diesel engine is quiet like the Hi-Lux.

[SIZE=3]For the price of P1,030,000 for a top-of-the-line diesel vehicle, the INNOVA would be a very good buy. It may be a little bit more expensive than the top-of-the-Line REVO's but INNOVA has entirely new platform, engine, technology and everythingelse -- in SHORT, practically NEW vehicle bumper to bumper.

And on top of that, it is priced at a level that avoids to be on the next higher bracket of category for the excise tax for new Vehicles. Smart move again for Toyota! They really know how to sell their products!

But I wonder though if it really feels to have more room than the REVO's. Looking at it from the pictures, it looks cramped inside but I don't know how it is when one actually sits on the driver's seat. Any opinions on this?

driver side airbag lang yung G variant(GAS M/T A/T at DIESEL M/T A/T).Di siya leather seats at no ABS.But the price is reasonable.Eto yung prices na sinabi saakin ng taga Toyota Otis(may viewing sila sa sabado ng lahat ng variant):

J Gasoline;715.000
J Diesel:768.000
E Diesel:869.000
G Gasoline M/T:915.000
G Gasoline A/T:970.000
G Diesel M/T:975.000
G Diesel A/T:1.030.000

I doubt magiging mabenta yung E diesel ANG MID VARIANT!(manual only at walang power side view mirrors) at G Diesel A/T.Mahaba nga yung reservation sa lahat ng Toyota dealers.My complaint ay G lang ang may automatic variant at air bag.

For the J Gasoline na 715k, ano po yun engine? My info ba kayo. Would this be the 2.0 VVT-i?

**eggman** · February 10th, 2005 11:33 AM

1 TR FE(yun yata ang name),yung sa JDM Hi Ace at 2.0 VVT-i siya.Yung J ay wheel caps lang(a.k.a hub caps) at walang power windows,door locks and side view mirrors.I suggest mag 2.5 CRDI(engine ng HiAce at Hi Lux E and J) E variant ka nalang.
