acmilan11 · Postby **acmilan11** » December 11th, 2009, 10:05 pm

yea I went this evening by diamond and I saw the new sportero with a new face lift (looks good), kinda change up the interior with the center console being black now, the dials which was blue previously now lights up red, but the only weird factor is that the tray is still the usual length, and the new basic model now has the longer tray...so I kinda confused in wa goin on and wondering if dats the higher hp one cuz diamond doh have the specs sheet on them as yet.
o yea one more ting two colors out a kinda beige color and a lighter grey which looks really good...and well the cost kinda pricey $243k I think, but yea daz in town..so anybody else who checked it out and know additional info concerning the change in hp of the 2010 model let me know thanks

Haven't seen it yet

But is a Sportero, so it gonna be great

Don't be surprised that they bring the new long bed and want to charge more for the extra tray space

make sense with the basic havin the longer tray....because that is the commercial model, where you would want more room.

....will pass to take a sneak peek

yea but the long tray in the fully loaded model will confirm datz its the upgraded 2.5 engine...which would be sweet

That van already so long, you all still asking for a longer tray.

I just took a walk around the block to Richmond street....It's just a cosmetic change, but looks better IMO.

Prices for the automatic models:
2.5L - $243K
3.2L - $258K

(forgot to ask for the manual prices because I was distracted by another chassis in the showroom :-P

)

always liked this feature...roll down back window

fully powered driver's side seat

243K for the 2.5?? WTF!!

And i'm guessing if they still bringing the 3.2, the high spec 2.5 is not available ... Fail ...

^^^boi I go be patient and wait for that high spec 2.5 yes

I'm not sure what you mean ... the high spec 2.5 was always available ... most luxury pickup IMHO.

And this is the same one I saw ... probably just a very few of them around..

I'm referring to the revised 2.5l powerplant. 175hp and 400Nm torque.

It replaces the outgoing 3.2l and is a better motor in every way.

I'd wait a while for it to be tried and tested before I agree.
