HolyCross and filipinos,

Actually I am Korean/Filipino living in Philippines and Korea. I live in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig. I am pretty much a lone ranger so ended up joining Singapore and Malaysian threads since everyone there was very accommodating.

Regards.

Yeah I don't think too many people can afford this car in the Philippines anyways. That and I'd hate to drive it around there with the crappy roads and crazy jeepney drivers.

I like it, the color is hard to keep clean but nice when it is. I can't compare it to anyother 8 so I don't know if there is much difference between the two. I think the suspension is a little stiffer. I'm in Fairfield with D.J. but I think this is what you have in mind...

Hi there!. I was born in Cebu City. Have lived in Malaysia ( mainly in Sarawak cities - Kuching, Sibu and Sabah) in my younger days. I live in Melbourne Australia these days. Last time I went back to Cebu was in 1998 and simply had a great time there. Hoping to go back in May 2008 and perhaps retire and be buried there in my older days.

Protege Tech PH is now MAZDAtech PH
http://protegetech.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=31

owners of rotary based Mazda cars such as the RX-3, RX-7, RX-8 and any other Wankel engined car
Sali na po! :D Mazda PH does not sell yet mazda rx8 here, although i think you can have mazda to order it for you. Or buy it in the gray market, like the Mazdaspeed3 - We now have 4 units roaming around Luzon. I believe they're 6. Dunno, if the last two is still on someone's else container.

:D

@Jungleagent: sorry, but i don't have any clue.

Although, i know that the new mazdaspeed03 (graymarket) cost around 2Million to 2.5Million pesos. That is roughly.. 2m ($46,674 ++) to 2.5m ($58,343 ++)

And its pretty expensive!
