Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued]

[joey roo]

Well friends, tell the truth, up to now I haven't decided on getting the car. Its just I've given them my reservation. Also, another development. I've told the dealer to take the car to the casa and have it assessed. I think there's no fee on assessing a car on a casa. Does the casa give a printed quotation on their assessment? If the assessment prove that it is too much to buy it, then I'll back out. I'll just keep you all folks posted about other developments.

sir, IMHO if i have 800k cash, i would purchase a brand new car. kung kulang para sa innova G, then i-downpayment mo, then very minimal na ang monthly mo di ba, bagong bago pa, (naka plastic pa yun hehehe).

just my 2 cents...

good luck sa car hunting mo, and god bless

OK friends. Thanks for enlightening me.
I will go with the brand new. Which casa gives the best freebies?

+1000... use the 800k as DP for a new one. your monthly amortization for a brandnew G (on simple and straight computation) is around 5k only for 5 years (if you may opt for this). in three years time, your 5k value is much less than you think. the best option i would choose if i were you.. kaso bossing, hindi ako ikaw hehehe...its your call ...

one morething to consider is the ability to haggle with the SA, back read some of the posts here, makikita mo kung ano ano ang usual freebies, then try mo.

for example on my case, i didnt want the US GILA tints they were offering kc out of stock daw 3M nila so i opted for another freebie in replacement.

good luck and god bless....

guys, just bought a brand new Innova from Toyota Shaw...

i ma just wondering bakit walang plastic yung mga seats sa loob...The agent told me, na inalis daw kasi nag vaccum sa loob...pwede naman daw nya ibalik, pero i trusted him sabi ko wag na... i am just curious, though a bit late na 'to, is it possible ba na nabigyan ako ng refurbished unit??? medyo curios kasi ako dun sa amoy "bago" sa loob...naka experience na kasi ako suamakay ng mga brand new cars, at talagang malakas umamoy yung "bago"..... isa pa, medyo sala yung alignment....naka tabingi ng konti manibela ko pag straight drive ako... bakit ganun? ok lang ba 'to????

Oo malakas talaga amoy ng brand new..
About sa manobela.. ganun din sa akin tiko.. pina adjust ko nung nag 1,000k pms ako,free labor naman eh...

[mike_cryogenics]

*swordfish
Agree with morlack, medyo malakas nga yung amoy nun.

Ilan na ba odometer reading ng nakuha mo yung unit mo? pwede mo rin maging basehan yung conduction sticker, meron kasing series yun.

To everyone, can u recommend a good Sales Agent that i can deal with- honest , reliable and delivers? I will buying the innova car and will be makign the transactions overseas and i want someone i can trust. it's my hard earned money and I want to make sure i am dealing with an honest person as well.

Also, if I buy the car in a certain branch, will the service/maintenance of that car have to be done in the branch where i bought it?

I think yes para ma avail mo yung free labor for 1k and 5k PMS...
You may try the ff:
-Toyota Pasig and look for Ryan Chua
-Toyota Alabang look for Beth Ramos
-Toyota Makati look for Gerry Latumbo

Sila yung mga SA na nakapagtanungan ko and gave the good, better and best deal

[hops]

Central Diesel. Look up their shop and contact details sa directory or sa website nila -just google it. They have tools to diagnose D4Ds.

*morlack, *mike_cryogenics

actually hindi ko nakuha exactly yung odo reading nung pagkakuha ko, pero tantya ko nung nakuha ko yun mga nasa 1-3kms...

paano ba malaman yung sa conduction sticker??? dun sa invoice 2010 naman...check ko na lang yung sa body nya...haaayysss, excited kasi masyado eh, kaya yung mga basic inspection hindi na nagawa...pano ba naman pinaghintay ako till 9PM nung friday for the release nung innova, eh nung nakuha ko na parang atat na ako i-drive pauwi at sopresahin si misis...

I will go with the brand new. Which casa gives the best freebies?

usually freebies are tint, seat cover at matting ..

Pumunta ka ng ilang Toyota casa to compare the cost of Innova

First, ask for the SRP ng innova, then ask the maximum discount na maibibigay ng casa (usually 30-50k from SRP)

Second ask for % interest sa in-house financing (18-24%), usually mas mababa kung sa bangko ang financing (12-18% depende sa number of years)

Third compute for the total cost of Innnova (DP + total amount financed inlcuding interest). Kung sino casa makapag-offer ng mababa, dun ka kumuha.

Kapag settled na yun computation, saka ka makipagbargain sa additional freebies.

Hindi porke madaming freebies like chattel, insurance at LTO at nakamura ka na, always compute the total cost of Innova. Nakakaenganyo ang freebies na yan pero usually nakakarga yan sa interest ng financing kaya madalas mas nakakatipid ka sa straight deal.
