There is no argument here. If you have deep pocket then settle for Alphard. Its all about the handling of the units. M8 and Alphard are very good cars

I don’t understand people’s “resale” value arguments. We had an Alphard 1st gen which my parents bought for 3.8M and had problems with rack and pinion but Toyota didn’t cover it on warranty and cost them around 70k pesos within just 2 years of ownership. They just sold it this year 2024 for 750k with 90k odo and engine problem that even Toyota couldn’t fix coz they don’t sell any VVT-i parts anymore. On what part did my parents earned that “resale value” since they lost 3M on SRP add to that maintenance around 50-100k per year?

Most vans are known and seen to be driven by an owner’s driver but not this one. The design and those wheels makes it a tito’s ride, man it’s such a baller. It’s just so cool and gwapo!

Sir Jay, can you do a head to head of the newly released chinese MPVs? Curious to see the Forthing U-Tour vs. MG G50 Plus vs. Gac M6 Pro 😁

I like your review Jay, at least you're not like some of the other reviewers out there now that are clearly sucking up to the Chinese manufacturers, never mentioning any deficiencies or the fact they look clearly like other cars, at least you seem to have some objectivity here.

Do you buy vehicles for the resale value? If that's your sole purpose, then stick to overpriced Toyotas.

I never get this mentality. It reminds me of people who use the "limit charging to 80%" feature on iphones. They purposely cap their iphones and make life harder for themselves just so they gain an extra 5% of battery life in 2 years and gain an extra 5000 pesos in resale value. SMH.

I honestly thought it was a review of the Toyota before I realized it was another Chinese look-alike, Chinese are on their way up, if they just trust their own styling departments.

The value for money is gone, and with recent geopolitical happenings, I don't see the Chinese going that much further in cars. They're all in on EV's. Our country doesn't really see itself shifting to that for at least another decade, maybe more.

This video was not paid for. If it was, it would be declared. Nobody told me what to say. I gave my honest opinion on the vehicle, mentioned the pros and cons, even mentioned the reasons why you should choose the competition over this. If you still think that it's "promotional", there's nothing that I can do to change your opinion.
