T&T OFFICIAL New Vehicle Prices & Discussion Thread

[MrSennin]

Question the Hyundai Genesis coupe, has anyone ever ask the dealership to bring one down or get a pricing on it, it seems like a good competitor for the rx8 and toyota/subaru gt86/brz and what other entry level sports car we have here yes I know last year was last manufacturer year but still we looking to sell 2014/2015 vehicles as 2017/2018. Thanks to all or any response.

Carluva, the trailblazer is another over priced ladder frame SUV which shares its DNA with the Colorado pickup. Because of the increased MVT, the 2.8T 4wd 7 seater only model sells for around $600k. It's basically a twin to the Isuzu MUX and same product placement and marketing concept as the Fortuner and Everest. Capable off road and spacious but priced wayy out of people's budget. $580k can land you a 2016 Benz GLC250 4MATIC with AMG kit. Two different classes I know but "SUV" nonetheless.

How come nobody talking bout the juke?

[Allergic2BunnyEars]

Juke still ugly af.

Juke still ugly af.

Having an ulgy vehicle is a plus in my books as it's less likely to be stolen.

[drchaos]

Hope you don't apply the same logic when selecting a mate.

Juke still in the first gen?

I literally feel sorry for you.

kronik, I'm not sure what the new MUX sells for right now. I would really like an updated price myself. Thing is, it used to be $395k before the further adjustment to MVT and that was for the 3.0L version. Now I think they bring the 2.5 units to be more competitive. If the Trailblazer 2.8 is around $600k and the Fortuner 3.0 is currently at $825k then brace yourself for that MUX price because it won't be cheap.

I found out that the 2017 D-Max 3.0 d/c 4x4 and the 2017 L200 Sportero 2.5 d/c 4x4 is now priced at $262k and $265k respectively. Both are cheaper than the 2017 Ranger 2.2 d/c 4x4 which is $270k and you need HTP to drive it.

car, I like your logic but unfortunately it doesn't always work that way. See the below photos (a snapshot of a few ugly vehicles that made it into the SVS stats):

Juke still in the first gen?

Yeah. Hopefully they don't make a second.

[agent007]

Small crossovers yield excellent profits for car makers and Nissan being no different so here is the possible 2nd gen based off of this sketch:

Still looks like a good option for an ugly vehicle for the wife to drive. I more looking at the lower appeal for theft when the wife is driving alone.
Just today in Trinity mall car park when I pulled up with the wife old wingroad, 2 guys wants to demonstrate a cleaning product on the yellow headlights. I told them yellow headlights is part of my security system.

Things about to get better at Toyota ... Heard they puling some all stars from ANSA and MASSY and they have a new, no nonsense regional president coming down to take control after they cleaned house. They realized the problems and they addressing it.

According to Hyundai, the Elantra 2.0 MPI with 6MT can cover 0-100kmph in 8.8s and reach a top speed of 205kmph

According to Volkswagen, the Jetta TSI with DSG can cover 0-100kmph in 8.3s.

Good job there Banzai! Here's my little take on this car and the right timing for its introduction locally:

The Elantra is 0.5s slower (which means nothing much in T&T road conditions and speed limit enforcement) and is significantly more reliable as I am sure you won't suffer transmission, engine, interior trim and electronics failure as in the case of the current Mexican made Jetta which is actually worse in reliability to what owners of Daewoo Cielos faced some 20 years ago! No wonder why VW is selling so poorly locally. IMO, Massy should simply give up Volvo, Subaru and VW and focus on allocating FOREX for their bread and butter Nissan and Hyundai lineup. That way, more Trinbagonians can get to purchase reliable and affordable vehicles with steady supply/inventory. I'm looking forward to seeing more affordable pricing from these dealers because sales generally have slowed down so right now it's very competitive. $150k for a 2.0 basic elantra is pure WIN or you can head on down to TTTL and get yourself a nice Corolla 1.6 automatic with the same features for $250k lol.

Mopheus, I don't think Massy imports the Juke turbo anymore so it may not be so relevant from a performance POV. For those who have them local from new and the roro ones, stay far unless you driving a 328i

Juke turbo requires premium that massy sells.
Non turbo super.
And the Vitara is made in Hungary.

[agent007]

source: http://www.trinituner.com/v4/forums/vie ... 5&start=30

basically:
QG13DE - super
HR15DE - super
QG16DE - super
HR16DE - premium
MR16DDT - premium
QR20DE - super
MR20DE - super
VQ20DE - super
VQ23DE - super
QR25DE - premium
VQ35DE - premium
VQ37VHR - premium

Massy did not mention these so I'm not sure what is the correct fuel for them:
HR12DE
GA14DE
GA16DE

VQ30DE
