Doppel Turbocharged October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 better for coe to go down below your coe rebate.. then at least can get some cash refund. better than a paper tiger gain. though looking at the high level of bid the last round.. likely spill over to this round.. maybeSpot on. Better cash in the pocket than paper gain. COE is for ten years, goes to zero at end of life, unless you scrap and take back money from LTA. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewyewkc 5th Gear October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 Cat A - $40k Cat B - $47K We must have a table like this so when the final result is announced we will straightaway know who strike first prize (both Cat correct) or second prize (one Cat correct) and we can announce the winners. Name Cat A Cat B 1. Megadark 40k 47k 2. Swift0601a 41k 50k 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
white_black 3rd Gear October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 See today's news article... http://www.businesstimes.com.sg/transport/lta-drops-need-to-park-private-hire-cars-under-a-business FROM this month, a private-hire car (PHC) can be owned by an individual, without the need to first register a business entity with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (Acra). Will this small step by LTA in any way influence/affect COE prices going forward? Ah Gong "chut pattern" again? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sdf4786k Twincharged October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 Not anti government here. However, government created this COE as an instrument to 'control' the car population and 'penged' it several times over the years. So this topic would be kind of hard without discussing the game rules and just play the game. Of course too much of negative sentiments is also not fun. Having said that, the new CEVS monster is lurking near, I hope those who signed recently gets your COE and car soon. Please share what the AD SE latest info to you, which is a good indicator (at least for me) to feel the market sentiment. I deem that they have the bigger muscles to flex. Oh, forgot to mention, perhaps one possible way of getting COE fast is to keep following up with your AD/PI, put pressure on them. At times they have to release some cars for some reasons (example cash flow, inventory, older model etc), even at higher COE. So let's say if they decided to bid at least 5 COE but holding 10 orders, who would they give it to? I would quickly give it to the one that bark me the most and let those remain silence wait a little longer. Just my opinion. I tend to agree. We use to pride our self that UK planned the City base on our ERP blah blah blah. Now we have a system that we just pay to join the Jam. It did not evolve from there. Also the COE while it control the population growth, you can only tweak it so much before everyone starts to try to outsmart the system. I for one is super against the Cat A for under 130BHP because it just do not make sense to limit cars that way. Else, long ago, we would have changed the game when the RX7 / RX8 was available. Drinks oil. Drinks fuel. Low CC. High horsepower. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vratenza Supersonic October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 then again depends on his rebate level ...with the COE going down trend so much recently, I doubt his AD has the balls to set high rebate levels.
