    Because they can barely afford the cheapest subcompact premium branded vehicle ...

    Volkswagen? A common brand for peasants? Heaven forbid!!! That's heresy ... It has to be a premium brand ... Nothing else will suffice ...

    A Touareg V6 TDI is priced at 4M but VW was offering them at discount for 3M. With a limited budget for a UX, I guess they can’t afford that.

    To address his wife’s desire for premium stuff, I should he should just buy her a Merc A180. Ayan ha, Mercedes na yan sa budget nila. Parang sabi ni Uls, kahit entry level LV basta LV.

    Grabe ang effect ng social pressure no?

    Di na sapat na may current model car ka (like the guy said a BRV isn't something to be proud of)

    Kelangan current model na premium brand

    Coz regular cars are just too ordinary

    Well I guess it's a sign na umuunlad ang Pinas kasi madami na nakakabili ng bagong oto so having a new car isn't a big deal anymore

    It takes more than a brand new ordinary car to impress people these days
