nice car!

A lot of money for a Pak assembled car. For this money you can have a very nice BM, Benz or Audi… Would you choose this over a German Car??? Hmmmm point to ponder 😉
It’s not assembled here
Thank God it’s not limited to 180kph like most JDM cars.
Smell the tea and read the article with open eyes, it mentions quite clearly that the car has been imported directly from the Japan.
As for Audi or BMW or Mercedes being better than a Toyota well, there are factors other than being looking just classy, you don’t want to end up paying another 200,000/- for small technical parts like fuel pump which, for your information my friend had to change after mere 10,000 kms for his A3 and he had to cough-up 150,000/- for that. However, every person has his own choice.
Why chose Japanese car in such a massive price. GO FOR AUDI, BMW or MERCEDES
My dear I have a W124 Mercedes 200E from 1991 on ORIGINAL ENGINE/AUTO TRANNS and ROCK SOLID/RUST FREE/RATTLE FREE drive. I changed the fuel pump last year after 26 YEARS! Beat that Toyota 😉
