Things that makes me get an outgoing model, brand new:
1. Huge discounts (but you have to wait before the imminent arrival of the new model).
2. Defects have been ironed out (mostly).

February 4th, 2015 09:46 AM #14If you are in a hurry, then get the current gen.
If you are not in a hurry and willing to wait for the release of the next gen, then willing to wait even more coz the demand is so high and willing to be patient and understanding on the agents milking their clients by asking DI, reservation fee, in house only, etc, coz they know they are selling a hot car, by all means go with the all new.

February 4th, 2015 09:51 AM #15if TS really wants one, maybe he should fall in line now and make his reservation.. so's he won't have to wait several months after its release, to drive one into his garage.. like what happened when the fortuner was introduced 'way back in 2005..

Yes, like what happened when the first gen Fort was released. Grabe daw ang pila noon and the waiting time lasted as long as 6, 7 months, even longer. I will not be surprised if the all new model will be welcomed the same. I still see a lot of brand new Forts on the streets considering it's only a refreshed look, how much more if it's all new.

February 4th, 2015 10:52 AM #17according to industry reports, the Fort in its 10 year is averaging 1000 +/ month so its enjoying a healthy following....It's main competitor, the Montero is averaging 1,700 + units/ month...
Following Toyota's game plan of carrying over engines, its safe to say that the next gen fortuner/Hilux/Innova will be using the same engines.
Following also that Toyota has a culture of making you jump thru hoops ( DI, in house , mandatiry casa insurance).... I'll get the current gen, if your really bent on getting the Fortuner.
Just make sure to milk the maximum discount.

February 5th, 2015 11:30 AM #19I think I read this in a car magazine a few months back and I'm not sure if it's still true. Seems like the Fortuner surpassed the Montero's sales figures last year based on some industry reports and it's also pretty evident on the roads. Doing this on the 9th year of the product life is pretty amazing.
