FJ Cruiser (local) coming this October!

[number001]

If its going to be discontinued do you think it will be a collectors item aftr 10 year or more?

It depends on one's definition of "collector's item".

IMO, the FJ Cruiser is not in anyway special (in terms of aesthetics or performance, etc..). Plus, Toyota has produced so many examples that were mostly sold in North America.

To all fj cruiser owners? Hows the ride of the unit?

[Raul]

The ride is surprisingly pleasant. For a huge SUV hindi say matagtag. As for some of the other issues brought up, I have no regrets buying this, even though it's the first car I ever bought that I haven't seen or driven in person. And you really can't compare it to a Prado...for me, even if they brought the price down of the Prado to the FJ I would STILL get the FJ...just a totally different taste. Not as roomy inside as you thought? Big freakin' deal, it's plenty roomy enough. Yes it would be nice to have four full doors, but my kids had no problem getting in and out of the back (my aunt on the other hand, impossible...so that's a plus!)

I'd say if you can find a way to get one, by hook or by crook (ok..maybe not by crook), get one! But then again, I'm the kind of guy who liked the looks of a Hummer, so again not for everyone. But at this new price? I just think it's a no brainer if it's anywhere close to your budget.

I'm keeping my options open .... But I'm really bent on getting a used one.....

Knowing how toyota makes you pay thru the nose on their forced in house financing, I'ts a matter of time before a few call's it enough.

Actually the grey market prices for 2nd hand has gone down, but no where "juicy" pa.... a 4- 5 yr olds are selling for about 1.6M

I guess its still going down.

Price of greys is high because they don't get the JPEPA tax breaks Toyota does.

And they never will... so I doubt that price will go down very much.

Hi mga sir! How many months pa ba ang waiting list for FJ ngayon? Im planning to get 1 unit before the year ends.

Thanks.
