Honda CR-V : The suspense is killing me!




Paging Honda Philippines, it's time to release the 3rd generation Honda CR-V. Most of our neighbors in Asia have already launched the much awaited SUV. Internet forum talks show that 3 variants will be released; a 2.0liter 6 speed manual, a 2.0liter 5 speed automatic and the top of the line 2.4liter 5 speed automatic.

Since our budget is only P1,3M, we're eyeing the base model auto tranny. Here's a result of an internet research that I did about list price of our neighbors of the base model variant converted in Philippine peso:
Singapore P2,784,662
Malaysia P1,973,845
Thailand P1,726,960
Indonesia P1,485,000
Australia P1,292,964.

On the other side of the globe, US retails it for P1,119,650. I went to Honda Tarlac last month and they said that the price increase is only P150th from the 2nd gen models hence that would be sub P1,3M. Then again, I'd rather be killed by the suspense than the price.
