Submarine82 1st Gear March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 Hi All, I am driving Hyundai Getz now. Its COE is due in one year time. I am 33 years old and earning $4k per month. I am car enthusiast and I wish to own a new Merc C class in the near future. Do you think it is possible to own a new Merc C class at my current salary level? If not, what should I do?

Lotr 6th Gear March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 (edited) Can, migrate to a country where cars are much cheaper e.g. Malaysia If in Singapore, you can refer to the advice in one of the earlier post Actually, based on current price ~200k, you can work out the downpayment (50%, iirc, so ~100k) and monthly payments (must be around 2k roughly) Hi All, I am driving Hyundai Getz now.

Vid Hypersonic March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 If you are chio bu, can find a sugar daddy. If you are NOT a chio bu, can go for plastic surgery and find a sugar daddy. If you are not a bu, can go for sex exchange and plastic surgery and find a sugar daddy. If all else fails, you can always pay $2k a month to buy a C180 after paying $110k. And use the other $2k for petrol, road tax, insurance and maintenance. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derrickc 1st Gear March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 Hi All, I am driving Hyundai Getz now. Its COE is due in one year time. I am 33 years old and earning $4k per month. I am car enthusiast and I wish to own a new Merc C class in the near future. Do you think it is possible to own a new Merc C class at my current salary level? If not, what should I do? Any kind soul please advice me... At 33 years old, you should be saving up for your marriage or for your kids. A S$4k salary is not a lot of money, try to be practical and realistic. You should consider saving, investing your spare cash or more importantly invest in upgrading yourself so that you can have the opportunity to increase your income/salary. What's the point of owning a new merc C class without spare cash to drive it out and have to worry whether the repossession tow truck may come to tow it away? 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyco_kia 4th Gear March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 If you can afford to make a downpayment of about 90k and a monthly loan of 1.8k for 5 years, yes you can buy a C Class. Since you earn 4k a month, do you wanna busto half your salary on a car loan every single month? Honestly it's like living beyond your means and you will find it very painful cause i'm sure you have other expenses to consider and a car is certainly not worth that stress to live for every single month. Not to mention the maintenance costs are easily doubled each time you send for servicing it's like you are serving the car instead of the car serving you. Hope you think twice about it bro. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to know how much I should earn at age of 33? How much I should earn to own a new Merc? I must do business in order to own a new Merc? I had completed my Master degree. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
