TOYOTA FJ CRUISER
Years after being offered in the grey market and just moments being in the death row, Toyota had finally offered the FJ Cruiser thanks to some tax cuts. It looks good and has impressive off-road abilities but visibility isn't good (a trade-off due to the retro styling). A good toy rather than a practical partner.
The Good: Great off-road skills
The Bad: Poor outward visibility
Price Range: P1,798,000
