With the 200K discount that Honda is giving for the Pilot recently, I think it's already a good buy when you compare it with the explorer sport.

The Pilot 3.5L V6 has an SRP of around 3.4M. Even if they give it a 200k discount, it is still more expensive than the more powerful Explorer 3.5L V6 Ecoboost at 2.9M. The base trim Explorer FWD is even cheaper at 2.5M yet you get around similar power/torque output as the Pilot and ample room for 7 adults. We have not even considered the discounts Ford offers for their big vehicles.

If you take a look on the road, the Explorer is more common midsize unibody SUV. With the launch of the CX9 AWD locally priced at 2.8M, it might even outsell the Pilot.

If TopgearPH is coming, then it must be a big event of sorts. Only Forester and XV owners? Or will we see WRX and Legacy people joining?

Iwan mo na lang Jimny sa Ceejay's tapos balikan mo after the EB. Mabilis lang naman byahe to Petron SLX, just take Alabang-Zapote to Daang Hari to MCX and then SLEX na.

Papa-carwash pa naman sana ako bukas. On second thought, di na lang at baka manalo pa ng dirtiest unit award. Hehehe
