Picantorian Neutral Newbie March 2, 2007 Share March 2, 2007 I think the second car can be an OPC...like I saw an OPC Nissan 350Z on the road....convertable some more.... I dun mean anything though.. but IMO, i feel that such cars dun seem to go well with red plate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picantorian Neutral Newbie March 2, 2007 Share March 2, 2007 OPC Car Owners should try to adhere to usage hours n not try to 'makan' govt....cos if too much spoil market, another set of rules will surface to counter OPC cars on the road....the penalty is hefty too! I agree. Rules are all set by humans.. cause we have shown that we dun have self-discipline.. Who can we blame for all the rules implied but ourselves..

Toyo 1st Gear March 2, 2007 Share March 2, 2007 with the following COE crash, OPC car like VIOS/lancer can get easily for 25k after AD adjust the new pricing. i wonder if anyone did the calculation, if someone gets the OPC car and used $20 coupon everyday, it would actually be much cheaper than regular car! eg, 52 weeks a year = 100 sat/sun approx 11 holidays a year total days that can use OPC car = 110 days. total days that have to use $20 coupon = 365-110 = 250 days even if u use $20 coupon EVERYDAY for 250 days = $5000!!! so in short your OPC car is actually only $30k and can use for everyday compared to a normal car costing about $42k?? the hassle is of course to tear the coupon everyday. For OPC cars, u need to go for inspection to check the no. plates every year. and u'll be subjected to checks for the coupons on the road during peak hr. very troublesome. i had heard of an idea from someone to buy OPC cars and re-sell it in M'sia as it will become cheaper after the 17K discount. but this was not feasible as singapore registered cars are a potential targets for thief Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesfreq Neutral Newbie March 2, 2007 Share March 2, 2007 Well, if can afford the 350z, whats that 17k? One year road tax for the 350z is already 4k. Unless, the money really got way better use. In which case, then car shouldn't buy at all. Different perspectives, perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesfreq Neutral Newbie March 2, 2007 Share March 2, 2007 Pls post in the right thread. Its about 10k, depending on whether sports edition or not and whether its auto or manual. Can read sgcarmart.com for details of the omv. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picantorian Neutral Newbie March 2, 2007 Share March 2, 2007 true.. probably is just that the first impression it gives me.. the car defintely wows me.. but i feel that it will be better with a normal plate car.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vicom centres are open until 5pm on saturdays. So no need to proposely tear $20 coupon for inspection. Its a breeze too. Just a glance by the inspector on the front and back of the car and he will sign on a form on the spot. With paper, can immediately pay the $138 road tax and get the disc liao. I got everything done in 5 mins nia. Yishun Vicom is 5 mins drive from my house somemore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
