I checked a black navara from Maska before i bought mine
That looked super aggressive
Front carry boy with double fog lights installed in it
Black vertical grill replaced the stock
Black project lights
Smoked tail lights
Open tray with black plastic roll bar

stock rims though, but with the right rims it would def have def stood out

too bad their warrany period waan't so hot.. :lol: :lol:

nearly everyone here bashing on d navarra's for size and so on. but i have a navarra manual yes its a lil big but not too much bigger dan d toyota and d gears shifts very well its unusal with d feeling and dats wat makes it unique and one of a kind. one more thing all them other vans u all talkin bout dat sooo better dan a navarra but in strength meaning body strength and power and speed d navarra holds all of it. since dat navarra came by me everyone findin something to say bad but ppl dont understand y all dem other vans mashing up like paper. i saw a lux in a police station d thing jus banged into another car and it write off d front mash up. if u know where a navarra comes from and d hilux and all dem vans u'll see d superiority of a navarra. a navarra comes from japan dats from neal and massy while d navarras on d out side as well as hilux bout outside and in the company comes from thailand. there's a big difference there two different places. i even drove a hilux and d navarras is heavier and more steady on the road whereas a hilux is very light espiecially d back and unsteady and really and trulely dont be bashing d navarras so because overall they are definitely unique and one of a kind very unusal.

I dont think they bashing, everybody entitled to their opinion and just stating that.

It is good however that the navara owners can share their first hand experience so we can all learn about the different vehicles.

All accidents are different, different damage etc
ive seen many navarra`s and hilux that have been thru walls, in ditches, flipped and ALL are bad

what are the difference between a japan and thailand vehicle?
do you know where most body parts are made?

Parts comes from all over but d metal dat the body is made from is different espiecially japan, singapore and thailand. reason y most vehicles coming from singapore and thailand now is because they cost a lot cheaper and parts are cheaper. its not where d parts coming is where d vehicle comes from take d navarra company comes from japan and outside comes from thailand u think ul get parts for the thailand ones in the company with exact fit??? there is a difference and u have to try it to know. a japan vehicle would take long to rust for eg d old model cefiros and laurel over 20 yrs and aint rustin as compared to some new vehicles i know off. im not saying that vans are bad but is how ppl drives on d nations roadways and also how dey take care of their vehicles. i would have a different opinion to others but that doesnt mean that u cud say bad things bout a vehicle jus cuz u find others nicer. they all do d same work and burn d same fuel in d end. i see how ppl drive espiecially van drivers reckless and they look for wat they get so im not saying that a hilux is not good but jeez ppl have to drive slower dan that and u know wat ul be surprised at how long an engine wud last if u takecare of the vehicle compared to someone who drives hard. wat i like someone else wont but come on ppl lev earlier if u have to reach some where so u cud take ur time.

jugglerz, all this talk about quality you ned to get the facts. While you seem to be biased towards anything that is not a Nav read this link. The Toyata IMV project simply makes the new Hilux affordable in more countries while ensuring the same Toyota quality. Trust me, before spending $275,000 for a vehicle I did my homework.

http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/iw/ ... 371500.htm

Pay attention to this:

Toyota initiated the IMV project to create an optimised global manufacturing and supply system for pick-up trucks and multi-purpose vehicles to satisfy market demand in more than 140 countries, including a few developed markets and not necessarily only the emerging ones. The project is a purposeful attempt at setting up a system of manufacturing in multiple locations to capture `locational' advantages and to come up with a relevant, affordable product for these markets, all the while ensuring adherence to Toyota's quality standards.

yet another trail of woes from Nissan owners in the UK where the "Quality" is supposed to be better. Anyway, some useful reading for you so maybe you can prevent some of this hapenning to your Nav.

So why is it cheaper, are they using recycle material? inferior? Not cause labour cost are cheaper? No?

So the Nissan co. in thailand makes substitute parts and put it in their vehicles? :shock: I want you to tell me exactly what is the difference between a Japan and thailand Navarra :idea:

And YES you will get parts from the motorist that will fit PERFECTLY on a thailand vehicle. :!:

Cheaper due to production costs and shipping locations I guess. Shipping costs for materials are cheaper when production is dustributed across strategic locations as well I suppose.
