Yes, not all countries enjoy the option of 7 Seater SFs. Here int he Philippines, it is standard. 5 seaters are not available...

PS I did 205kph+ last week at STAR tollway at 3700rpm, short burst lang, then cruised at 140kph. Ti nest ko lang, may power reserve pa.

Thanks TFR but still awaiting my unit for release on thursday, official Santafeyer na by then

Guys, would like to know if you got a paint protect/undercoat/rustproofing package on your new SF. The dealer is offering me one but am still hesitant. Also, what's the typical in-house insurance amount you paid for? Mine was computed at 30k inclusive of TPL na. Ok na ba ito or did I get a bad deal? I know getting from outside the CASA is cheaper but I really prefer in-house insurance for new cars to avoid any hassles pag nagkaproblem during the first year. Thanks guys!

My SA advised againts it, since may factory rust proofing na naman daw, ang undercoating entails putting a coat of thick tar like material which may go into the nooks and cranny of the suspension and drive system and affect its performance eh bago pa naman. And May 5 year warranty ka naman eh, If something happens during that time just bring it back. About the insurance, OK na yan, better than what I got. mine was 38kpa ata eh.

I am not really that observant on plate# but i also seeing with the same color as yours parked along friendship route TS Cruz area. But i guess malamang nagkasalubong na tayo.

Madami na talaga dito sa LPC & Alabang area. Mostly black ang nakikita ko. BTW, mine is silver with the sharq stepboard, & ZFG plate.

ANybody here ordered an original mat set with 3rd row seat?? meron ba??

Hi to all SF owners. This morning, on my way to work in laguna, super heavy ang traffic sa SLEX. Ang nakakatuwa lang, while I was stuck in the traffic, I saw several Santa Fe's sa north bound side, mostly blacks and gun metal. Talagang marami na ang owners ng Santa Fe. It really stands out on the road, napaka elegant ng dating making me feel a proud owner. Other people can't help but notice it too especially kung nasa parking. Hindi maaring hindi lilingon ang mga napapadaan sa tabi nya.
