some people in the philippines make as much annually as americans make in a month

Custom fees too
- lack of assembly plants and factories
Most of the popular cars from Japanese brands here are imported from Thailand
And maybe some Ford and Chevrolet vehicles too
Random thought: If only most SUVs and pickups in US are diesel powered, hmmmm
Turbodiesel engines would work with vehicles like Ford E-150
Their high torque would be great for hauling
Especially when hauling boat trailers
I think the US style markups in selling cars wouldn't work in Ph because of how poor most people here. Dealerships here can often be desperate in selling cars
After I test drive cars, I often get spam calls from sales agents and they offer zero down payment schemes
silent oak
Yeah dealers are fucking predators
Once they know your hooked
They will try getting a trade in or something
old sedge
Especially with their zero down payment schemes in exchange of high interest rates
If the years to pay is 3-5, then the total money you'll pay including the interest will often be like 1.5 times of the car's SRP
Or possibly 2.5x

Oh, if the sales agents find out you're a cash buyer, they'll be less enthusiastic in accommodating you
Top Gear Ph once said that 1 reason why dealers or sales agents don't like you is you didn't buy their car. After scheduling test drives, you wasted their time and fuel because you didn't buy the car
But isn't the point of test drive is for customers to see if they want the car or not?

Idk in the US. In the Philippines, one reason why people buy pickups like Hilux is because the excise taxes on vehicles except pickups went up and it went down for the pickups years ago, so it's more on to avoid paying more due to the excise tax.
And our gov't said that buying pickups as personal vehicles to get around the excise tax increases is frowned upon

jagged sentinel
They marketed it fine for what they had available to them
Given the direction they were going I think they did fine
They were a little generous with calling it a muscle car though
silent oak
Their core audience wouldn’t buy an EV lol
It’s like a company like Ferrari selling a averagely priced sedan
Their core demographic isn’t in the market for it
jagged sentinel
They were forced to alienate their own audience because of a person who evidently didn't know the first thing about the American car market
"first thing" was used for the sake of emphasis but in this case it may be right in a more literal sense

Fucking Stellantis, I’d buy a mustang or Camaro before touching an EV

It doesn't have AC, supposedly has an overheating issue, and probably has too much torque for those tires anyway
Wait sorry
I mixed up the overheating issue, that's the charger Daytona and Superbird

Nose cone issue more like

But SPEED
jagged sentinel
They also didn't sell well at all

The super bird is super uber rare because of that

Superbird less so because they sloped the nose so it looked better, but they both didn't sell well

I wonder how the mustang boss sold
I hope they come out with a homage mustang boss 429 some day

The 429 is largely a footnote in the history of the mustang

Imagine they release a limited run of “wick” edition models

I wonder how the mustang boss sold
~1400 across 2 model years
The 429 anyway
The 302 was a more popular, conventional trim level and not a homologation special
silent oak
Isn’t the 302 the same body?
jagged sentinel
Isn’t the 302 the same body?
Yes
The biggest difference between the Boss 302/Mach 1 and 429 is a rear wing

So I might need to find a 302 for a clone of the 429 body wise..

The late 00s and early 10s ones
Partially because of the NFS movie I won't lie, but I do just like how they look regardless
Too bad you won't be able to buy a replica of that car, probably ever

The reason I love the early 2000s challengers is because of walking dead

Too bad you won't be able to buy a replica of that car, probably ever

The car is in NFS rivals so you could, in theory, use that game's 3D model for it, but I don't know if it's an exact recreation in-game
The wheels were also custom Forgiotos, so
Unless you can somehow get permission to laser scan the real car (which does still exist) from the owner
silent oak
Yeah sounds miserable finding a real car with the owner willing to let ya
